My husband had to go into Manhattan the other day to pick up a new watch (his first Patek, so he was really nerding out, lol), so I used the outing as an excuse to take my jumbo out of the closet again. I’ve been going back and forth on selling this bag lately - I feel that, as a similar-sized black day bag with silver tone hardware, my B30 has taken the place of my lambskin jumbo in my wardrobe. I think that the price of preowned Chanel is getting silly, and this was confirmed by the surprisingly very good offer I received for this bag from Fashionphile. I was ready to pack her up and ship her out, but these photos made me second guess myself. I’m still debating days later.

That bag is so gorgeous!! I would have a very hard time letting go of it. Such a classic. I have a M/L in lambskin and its a favorite of mine. Good luck with your decision!

Money does not have a timeless beauty.

This bag does

Thank you! The bag is very pretty, but I’m just not sure a jumbo fits my lifestyle anymore. I finally decided a couple of years ago that a maxi (formerly my favorite size) was too big for me, and I’m starting to feel that way about the jumbo. I’m 5’2” and have begun to feel that it’s too bulky. In the past year, I’ve already sent a patent jumbo and a caviar jumbo to new homes for that reason. I think the med/large has become my favorite size, but I struggle with the shoulder strap. If I could wear the M/L crossbody, I would feel a lot less indecisive about sending the lambskin jumbo to a new home. Decisions ...

I love your lamb jumbo! But it is a big bag. I have seen people wear the medium crossbody more and more- the look is starting to grow on me. Would you ever consider that? I’m sure you could pull it off.

Oh gosh, please don't sell her! She is a true classic and will only increase in value over time. Had I sold my jumbo caviar years ago when I thought I'd moved on from Chanel, then saw the prices now I'd have fainted. Besides, she is such a beauty. :love:
