have you set a limit on the number of bags you will own?

Yes. I currently have eight big bags and two small. I may purchase two more big bags and one small. 10 big bags is my limit so if I want another after accumulating the ten I have to sell one to get one. I see it this way you can only carry so many bags. However i do switch bags daily so I could wear a different bag for two weeks (business days) and never get bored. Anything over that is just too much - bags will end up just sitting in a closet hence a waste of money. I do not collect bags I buy with intent to use.

Cbk,

Oh no, I'm sorry to hear abt your shoulder 😔my mom had frozen shoulder and electric acupuncture accelerated her healing process.

Selling bags you don't use is a great thing, money towards a new one, I just need to find a way to sell them..and what to price it at.

i know how hard it is to part always find a reason to keep.. but i'm trying very hard to really set a limit .. Especially now i'm having a problem with my shoulder .. as much as i do not like handheld bags it looks like it will be my next bestfriend .. i only sell my bags to my friends who are interested ..
 
I agree. After owning so many bags, you tend to have favs. It only makes sense to clean a few out and keep the ones you can't live without. And later, add a few new ones to the collection...
 
I have 10, 8 of which I acquired since December so I really can't get anymore. I don't think I'd be able to sell them too as most people where I am only care about the 'big'/popular brands...

1. a bronze Gucci rolled handles tote love, special coated canvas (My mom's only luxury bag and which she passed to me)
2. a yellow and grey/green Lanvin For Me Double Carry Medium (got this on sale)
3. an ink Ponies Mr Fill N Zip Twist in Ink (this is the most I've spent on a bag)
4. Gucci white coated canvas tote with black leather handles and pretty gold hardware
5. a light yellowish brown JW Hulme Co tiny legacy crossbody bag (got this on sale)
6. Red kangaroo skin cross-body bag bought at an airport
7. a red MBMJ What's the T tote (got this on sale)
8. Alice. D beige tote (got this on sale)
9. an aqua frrry Rivet Small A bag by frrry (got this on sale)
10. a black Raoul smooth leather very small crossbody/clutch

I do want a Givenchy bag someday... And I really think I want another DP (Deadly Ponies) bag. And perhaps a Horse+Nail purse. :faint:
 
No set number, as I like to have some flexibility. I currently have 12 bags, but a couple are the same style bags in different colors so I can change colors with the seasons, so not all of them are in rotation at the same time. I'm comfortable with 12, could probably go up to 15 before I started to feel overwhelmed.
