HOw much....

...would you be willing to pay for a second-hand balenciaga (esp. if it is the one of your dreams)?

Would you care if it had some marks on it, missing mirror etc

 

[mee4]

I would be willing to pay up to the retail if I really wanted it and if the bag is in mint condition. I would want everything that came with it, which includes the mirror, extra tassels, strap and dustbag. I would also love to receive the box but its not as important as the other items.

retail and a bit more with everything and in mint condition!

Same for me !

 

[lizz]

I guess I might pay up to $200 over retail for one I really, really wanted.

 

[seahorseinstripes]

above retail def.
but that depends on the money in my bank at that time

ditto! I'd pay retail plus $200 or so (maybe $300) for a 05 Dark Olive First in great condition with clean handles.

 

[Staci B]

The problem is that the bag I am looking at isn't perfect. So my dilemma is whether to buy it or wait for another one

 

[RealDealCollection]

It really depends on the style and color as well as the signs of use and missing mirror will give it a discount off retail. What style and color is it?

 

[Staci B]

^^^ Red and First

 

[RealDealCollection]

Sorry, 21 questions...Which year red? If it has pewter hardware...I would totally forgive the missing mirror, but still try to get a discount off retail...how much wear and tear?

^^^'04

It does have the mirror. But I have decided not to buy it.

 

[aarti]

I don't know, I haven't broken the 1000 barrier just yet.

 

[highglossfinish]

For an 05 olive First, which would have retailed for $995, I'd pay up to $1300 or $1400 if it was in great condition with tassels and mirror. If it was in perfect condition (absolutely no darkening of the handles), I might pay up to $1500.
