Hi missjesf,



i have also been eyeing this bag before! but i got the black one because this wasn't available yet. But i saw it in real life and the bag looks nice! Honestly i would prefer this red one than the black one :D Its like a burgundy red. Sorry i wasn't able to take a Photo. But its not really flashy its more on the neutral side. I hope this helps! :)


Thank you so much for your reply!! I don't have a Bergdorf's here so I'm praying the color of the bag is exactly the one in the picture. Since it just said Red I was worried that it would be that bright red/orange Givenchy has. Nonetheless, thank you for your reply! :)
 
I am contemplating a few bags and Pandora is one of them. Do you think Pandora is still in? While I am not a fashionista, I don't want to get a bag that is already on the way out and will make me appear dated.
 
Hi everyone! I'm fairly new to TPF, and Givenchy handbags. I do know that I want to purse the pandora in back, probably small because I'm only 18 and 5'1". I need someone to enlighten me on the hardware colors and the different leather the pandora comes in. Thank you in advance! :smile1:
 
I am just worried I may end up getting a bag that no one bothers carrying anymore. I like the Fendi Spy a lot and there was once I asked a SA if they still have one in the boutique's store. She stared at me and said "that bag is SO YESTERDAY, no one carries it anymore". Being a collector of Chloe bags in the past, I had bad experience trying to sell off some of my Chloe bags that are no longer trendy but in great or unused condition. In the end, the bags were all sold between US150-US300.
 
See I buy bags for me. Not for future resale value or only to carry because everyone else is. I don't care if I'm the only one still using them, I like them and so what if someone is thinking it's "so yesterday".
I'd probably stick to new release bags that are the in thing at the time then selling them off within a few months in your case.
 
If you're looking for future resell then get yourself a Hermes or Chanel. They do alright.
But like the Jaime, I buy because I love it and it doesn't matter if it's in or not because trends always circle back round. I consider pieces I buy as investments. And a good SA would never make such a comment, it's possible that the customer was looking for a replacement of a beloved style, or simply a specific collector...

I totally agree with this if you are very into "it" or "in" kind of bag better stick to the big guns classic like CHANEL 2.55/GST/WOC or HERMES Birkin/Kelly/Constantine. Surely those style will never go irrelevant or "last season" decades and decades from now. And like others here, I don't really don't mind the IT factor of the bag what really important thing is I want it.

I have never sold any bags before because strangely I feel connected to my handbags LOL. I buy my own bags with my own $$$ and so my handbags are like trophies for me. that's why I don't think of the resell value when getting of handbag because from the moment I purchase it... its mine all mine hahaha
 
I used to keep all my bags but maintaining them in humid Singapore can be costly. I had around 56 bags at one point - after two had to be thrown away after they were badly moldy. That was the time I decided to sell most of them away and recoup some of the cash as savings. It was then I realized those bags I paid a lot for were worth very very little as they were no longer in trend.

Chanel flaps and Birkins keep their value but they are not nice to carry. I like grab and go bags. Anyway I have ordered a Pandora. Waiting for its delivery.
 
Invest in a dehumidifier and run it for a few hours a day in the room they're kept in. That should help. They're very good. We run one in our room because we once had a leak under the house causing mould to furniture. Since been fixed but we keep running the dehumidifier daily and it collects moisture... Haven't had mould issues since.

I love what you said. I totally agree! I personally love my Pandoras and will continue to use them until I don't want to, not based on the "it bag" of the moment.
