This is the pre-loved market reacting to the Chanel price increase.
I hate to see items thats major appeal was the 'low' price point get flipped for a wild profit :sad:
Let’s be honest…it’s a cosmetic pouch with a chain. It was expensive enough at retail…I hope no one is crazy enough to buy it but who knows…

And the style looks cheap for the price tag in my opinion.

I also noticed that majority of consignors/resellers/flippers sales have slowed down to a crawl. Thank god people are coming to senses.. Now only if store sales slow to the crawl maybe they will lower the prices.
 
My friend sent me this photo of a reseller selling this small size emerald for $14,000!!! Apparently she claims it’s for her collection and will never sell, but 100% always does. Are people really willing to pay that?! Like I said in a previous post, Chanel will always come out with more different shades in the future and those colours may even be better than the ones you see now.

Thankfully, I cannot see the beauty of this emerald bag even though its a unicorn. But then again, there's so many new unicorns each season now and some I can never see the beauty of. Regardless, where there is fear of further price increase, people who wants a certain bag in a certain colour will think that there's no time better than now. So yes maybe there is really someone who will be willing to part with CAD14K to get their hands on this.
 
I was reading some of the post and I had to come on here to share my perspective on menemjefff on instgram. she posted about this particular comment on this thread on her story one day and complaining about it. first of all, every time she lists something for sale, she says "for a friend" countless times and it just seems like plain lies to make herself look better, and maybe to make her heart feel better by lying to the community.

& in regards to taking photos with tags still on bag. how can a girl have no shame? how embarrassing can you be? i just find it ridiculous how some buys to have content and sells and poses as if she has the item. she probbaly takes lots of photos of the item before even selling to make it seem like she has the item. so shameful.

All of them that takes photos with the blue sticker still on! And of course the tag still on the bags I unfollowed and will never buy from them.
 
Redeluxe partnered w Alyssa L. for a giveaway( they are giving away a WOC) and she’s also selling her Deauville with them
I thought it was kind of contradictory she was promoting redeluxe (who charge massive amounts over retail) meanwhile telling subscribers/viewers to look on the pre-loved or vintage market because Chanel price increases are too high.. I was like ermmm really now

To be fair, that's $14k Canadian so that's equivalent to just over $11k USD - still it is expensive and more than retail. She is a reseller that charges a very high price and active in all the Facebook groups.
