Resellers getting Chanel items first and selling for premium

I am on the same boat but with the mini my perfect bag in black leather. I asked my SA to find me one but she told me the bag was from previous season and completely soldout. I am disappointed and thought about buying it from preloved websites and I was discouraged to know that they are selling the bag $2000+ more than the original price!
I thought about giving up and just a moment ago I found an SA from different thread posted the mini perfect bag which I am looking for but I don’t know where the boutique is so I contacted her/him. Hopefully will hear from her/him soon.
Agree the mark ups are crazy, especially with the high prices already. Seems resellers are already taking deposits on the new caramels so it’s frustrating to say the least if it’s a repeat of last year. Good luck, hope you find your bag!
 
Wow! Look at the 18S emerald green mini over 16K! REALLY???!!!

P.S. Good thing mini is not part of the price increase. Otherwise, they may sell it for 20K or more! :lol:

Fashionphile has the top handle mini listed for over $7200 as well. Wasn't retail on it a little over $4000. Unbelievable! I guess if you want something bad enough there isn't an amount you wouldn't pay.
 
Someone is trying to sell their second hand/used cc hairband above retail and points to fashionphile as if that's her rationale. While I saw a reseller selling it for even less. One of her gullible "subbies" will just gobble it up

How did the resellers seem to have unlimited supplies of limited chanel items like the 22c denim or the 21k perfect mini? I thought the supply from Chanel store itself is very limited. I would also think some people who actually got it would keep it for themselves instead of passing it to resellers. Just seem very suspicious to me.

Not every country has limits. And reseller has some way to get around those set limits or they know how to jump ahead of other people on a waitlist.
 
What do you think of YouTubers pulling up a minimalist theme and mood again. Overconsumption thoughts coming from someone who chased the pink and owns an online store?

I think it's utterly ridiculous to post a video showing 10 Chanel bags and a birkin all purchased in one year and say "I'm done shopping" lol like am I supposed to find that relatable or heartwarming? She made sooo many videos saying she's not the birkin type then went and bought one anyway and then said it's her least used bag lol shocker. She's 100% copying Caitlin Pawlowski with this channel rebrand she's doing except when Caitlin did it, it actually came across as genuine.

This is GOLD. Few weeks ago she was smothering us with pink flap and was frustrated not to get one . Then now she is trying to convince us she’s done . She probably needed to remodel her channel because she can’t keep up with the Joneses and prices although she tries to point out many times that she can afford and financially stable which also contradicts her consignment gigs

The whole "I'm financially stable" thing honestly sounds like she's trying to convince herself more than anybody. Her "designer alternatives" video was so tacky honestly, not only is she promoting bags she would NEVER wear but she was actually selling the "cheaper alternatives" in the video!
