I guess I am "good" though others do not think so
)) I only have 5 designer bags at the moment. I do have some no name bags which I am planning to give away. I have just sold one which was a mistake purchase but I plan to buy a travel bag maybe a Le Pliage and also will be getting at least one or two for spring/summer. I have noticed that I do better with less that really please me so I can nurture each more often))
Also, if we consider that my designer bag passion only started last September, my collection is likely to grow and I have no summery bags, which is why I am planning on getting one for the summer at least.

Woo hoo! hahaha... I'm seriously wayyy too obsessed with bags...
But I am looking to seriously downsize now. Before "quantity" was more important to me than quality, as I liked switching my bags often--almost daily... Not that I didn't have quality bags...I did have a few LV's, Gucci, MJ...etc, but I had alot of "lower" brand bags too...
But now I'm starting to realize that many of my "lower" brand bags sit around untouched, some with the tags still on, while I carry my favorite high end bags... It's really hard for me now to carry a bag of lesser quality, despite the fact I like to change my bag alot. My goal is to have maybe 30 bags...ALL bags I love and carry often, so I still have variety to switch it up a bit, but not so many that most of them sit around in storage...
I was similar because I saw myself as a collector and would buy any bag that was different and I merely liked. I wasn't just someone who wanted enough fun bags to rotate; I wanted to collect! Quality is now more important to me than quantity. Sure, I have an awesome variety of bags, but there are a handful of them that I don't quite find attractive enough and a lot of them that I merely like (not love). I am ready to just kick handbag variety out the window now that I've experienced it for a good length of time and keep the bags that I at least love and/or find extremely useful and just like.
I started with 32 and have purged 5. I now will send an additional 2 bags to a local Goodwill tonight and plan to give one bag away to my SO's mother this weekend if she would gladly accept it and use it.
I think I can get myself down to about 16-18 bags, which is when I reach a point when I have bags that I'll gladly keep and love to use.

Well 5 bags in 5 months is great, a bag for each month
I also started buying designer bags a few months back and i have the same number, i'm planning on getting two more this year then im on a ban. I guess we are doing well. Dont forget to show us what you are buying soon, I love reveals
my collections is 14 designer bags and I dont even know how many other various bags I have. My favorite bags in the collection are the black sequined eclipse speedy from 2009fall runway collection and I just got the Artsy Empreinte in Taupe. But I love all of my bags.
Estimating around 10, I have a lot of Pliages and a few Coach bags.. I'm not sure if my little tote lunch box counts.
