Did you ever tire of a $$$$ bag too quickly?

I am trying to convince myself that my bags are a collection ... but the truth is I NEVER use two Miu Mius, one Luella, one Tod's, a Prada and an MJ - I could have saved the $$$ or put it toward a bag that I really wanted ... these purchases were impulse ... I would go to NM to buy a Balenciaga ... but it was not available ... so I bought the Luella instead ... I could kick myself for these ... not that they are bad bags ... just bad purchases ....
 
Don't you hate it when that happens?? The worst part is sometimes I know I'll be sick of a certain bag in a few weeks even BEFORE I buy it yet I still go ahead and purchase it! The chase is definitely as much fun if not MORE then the kill LOL!

I feel the same way - if I didn't "impulse buy" I could now have the bag I really want (large black Muse) - I could kick myself for a couple of my purchases - not all - most of my bags I adore and would never consider selling - I think I have finally learned how to deal with this impulse problem - and I love your "collection" idea !!!!! Maybe I'm doing that too!!!!
 
So far, no. But that's because I'm a collectore too. I have so many bags I haven't even used yet. They're all scotchguarded and/or shining monkeyed and stashed away in dustbags and plastic bags.

That's a part of it! I definetely have the "see it, want it, have to have it" thing too often....and then try to sell something off to make myself feel better. I'm good for the moment but who knows how long it will last! Next is something ostrich....:huh:
