Keep it unless you’re desperate for the money. It’ll be a vintage piece now.

I love Chanel too. I only have a vintage camera bag in lamb skin but it is divine and has the 24ct plated gold hardware. But if I can't afford new I will just look preloved.Thank youI am curious to find out how high the price increase will finally be on each every item ...hope its not over 400€ ... I am addicted!
Oh let us know when you do! Can't wait to see it!
This would scald me as I love preloved items and have bought from VC but I would keep it. That's amazing quality and you will likely miss it when it is gone.
Darling try selling it on the nl site designervintage you only pay like 37 euros for the add! Vestiare takes all your money!
Ok!! I will look into that! Thank you Salex! But I think I might just keep it for now. My parents got it for me...
Not sure if you misinterpreted my message or you are agreeing with me? I literally said in my post that I found chanel to be crazily priced and was totally not worth the $
So of course you are not alone 
I bought my vintage chanel for 1600 euro which is just a little bit more than the pochette metis after price increases. And the mini was 3000 euro which is approx 2x pochette metis. And while the metis might be less prone to scratches and you might get more bag for your money it all comes down to how you prioritize your money and what you prefer. I'm "quite young" (26), and while I love luxury items my style also has been changing a lot and I keep that in mind when buying a bag. I figured in my teenage years that if I save my money and quit buying numerous of high street clothes or bags I could save up and get one luxury item. And since then I've been buying, using, loving, falling out of love and selling. I've yet to lose money on either Chanel or LV. So I'd rather save up and pay the higher price for quality luxury items I can sell on later than buying 20 x H&M bags I'd be stuck with. But by no means are the Chanel worth the price objectively, they are hella expensive!!
Good reason to keep it!Ok!! I will look into that! Thank you Salex! But I think I might just keep it for now. My parents got it for me...
Great approach!!! Thats what I have been doing as well! And it works...Not sure if you misinterpreted my message or you are agreeing with me? I literally said in my post that I found chanel to be crazily priced and was totally not worth the $

but can you change the language?
It really does! I think a lot of people have this in mind when paying so much for LV, Chanel or Hermes. Bags can sometimes be small investments. If we all have bought a Neverfull 10 years ago we wouldn't lose a dime on it if we tried to sell it nowGreat approach!!! Thats what I have been doing as well! And it works...
And meanwhile in all those 10 years we had a gorgeous bag we could use to death 
That's the beauty of buying classics sometimes.
