There are so many youtubers who do bag posts who love the bags they have but don’t know anything about them. One gal i watched has a number of Hermes bags for example, and in her bag collection video, as she held them up one by one, she admitted she did not know the color names or even the leather types of most of them. I think there are a lot out there who just buy and carry bags they like and do not pay attention to the details like we do. Personally, i just love learning all the details, the history, color names, styles etc. sometimes i get things wrong, but to me thats part of our enjoyment here of our bags :heart:

Totally agree! Plus, I'm way more detail oriented than most - to the point of being a geek. :lol:

Anyone heard of a price increase coming anytime soon? Going to Europe next month and planning to get an Andiamo, but worried there will be a price increase before then with how popular the bag has gotten in the last two months

I feel like you should be fine. BV’s price increases are typically in May/November and are hefty. Last November it was 12-20% depending on the style. I would personally wait to get the VAT in Europe :)

Yes yes yes! You are so right. I am being very selective in the very few bags i will add, they must be a color and or style i will actually use and carry. This is defo one. I have this in a different color (a grayish beige) and will never sell it, i just LOVE this bag :heart: :heart: :heart: But. Too many bags! My omg closet is bursting still, so……

Aww - I'm sorry you did not get it in time. Keep watching, though. I often see bags reappear on TRR not long after they sell. You never know...:hugs:

Thank you! Whoever got it nabbed it super fast. Our resident bag huntress, @muchstuff , saw it immediately and alerted me. But it sold within minutes of TRR listing it.

There is another, listed on 1st dibs. For $47,000 :lol::coolio::shocked: Hard pass, lolol

$47,000? Gulp. Maybe fresh from the boutique, with a glass of champagne and gift packaging. But even then, no thank you!

Pricing at TRR is all over the place. One minute I think their prices are super high, then I'll find something gorgeous in excellent condition for an absolute steal. Hence, me buying two bags from them in the last week. :lol:

I know, its crazy. Depends on who is listing. Prices are either ridiculously over priced or pleasantly well priced.

This bag did not even retail at 47k! I think retail was around 34,500 on it. There are some nice BV bags sitting on poshmark too i would love to add, but these sellers have them listed for retail or over retail, crazy high prices no one would pay.
