The constant price increases are crazy. When you look at it over the last few years, particularly. Looking at my purchase history with LV, I bought a Neverfull GM in 2012 and it was £510. It's now £1090 after the latest price increase. Is the addition of a removable pouch really worth the cost of the bag more than doubling in eight years? By nature most luxury goods increase in price, but it's a shame it's by so much and that the quality seems to decrease as the cost goes up. My Keepall 45 Bandouliere was £845 in 2012, and the same bag is now £1400.
I feel that the quality of some of the current pieces doesn't reflect the prices at all. I've been gravitating more towards vintage pieces, which often feel better made and more durable.
I love my current LV collection, and have been buying for many years, but I think I'm glad that I'm pretty content with what I've got. If I add any more pieces I feel it'll most likely be via the preloved market.
