sell and swap or keep!! please help decide

oooh keep us posted, I love the black, but a Chanel red always steals my heart a little bit more, and if you have somebody very keen on your Maxi, it is almost like it is meant to be !!!!
 
I have the red one and i loveee it, so i would say get it!! then buy another black one again when you can since its easier to get it and you would basically be able to get that anytime if you were to regret! ;)
 
That is one gorgeous black maxi single flap that I am dying for. I have lots of classic flaps in assorted colors and every time I see the black caviar maxi single flap on the street I think I have been missing out for not getting it when it was available. I have the black caviar double flap jumbo and I think it's kind of small and prefer the maxi single for everyday use because I have 2 small kids. Red patent flap is beautiful too and it's a must in your collection. If I were you I would sell the GST or the other seasonal flaps as they won't hold their values for the long run.

Thanks for your advice hobo7, yes i think i really should keep my black maxi and get the red maxi! will have to go through my wardrobe and getting rid some of my old bags to justify the red maxi purchase tho
 
If i were in your shoes, I would keep black maxi and will buy red someday in the future. Red patent is gorgy but if you sell your black maxi, you may regret about it. I sold my black single jumbo in BNWT condition to buy another bag, and I really really regretted about it later. There was no more chance to buy single jumbo.

Do not sell anything you love, only sell the thing if you don't love it anymore. When you become ready, buy a brand new red flap happily.

Thanks CHL! you are totally right! :smile:
 
hi everyone,

i have a big dilemma, i have an opportunity to sell my beloved chanel maxi shw in black caviar (single flap)
and an opportunity to buy a preloved maxi double flap 11c in beautiful red patent. If i sell my black maxi caviar i only need to add around $300 to get the maxi red patent
i love my maxi black caviar but i can't afford to keep it and purchase the red one since i just made a big purchase recently
in terms of outfit and lifestyle, i wear a lot of black, i'm a full time mother of a 10-months-old baby girl (so patent leather should be quite good for me but caviar is just as good)
i'm really tempted to sell my black maxi and replace it with the red maxi but i really don't want to regret it
oh and i have 2 chanel in black already (and plenty other black bags in different brand; prada, miu miu, lv, balenciaga, gucci, etc)
my 2 chanel in black are gst and pre-fall flap bag (similar size to jumbo)
also what make me think that the red one is a good deal is since it's a double flap and my black one is a single flap
please please help me decide:smile::smile::smile:
