Yeah I’m definitely leaning that way. It’s not a powerhouse like a Birkin or anything. Maybe it’s only a collector bag in MY mind.

I never ever thought about resale value in clothes, shoes, bags etc., until I discovered "bags." I still do not think about it. If I get any money back on a used personal item I feel like I have won the jackpot (well maybe not the $1 billion dollar one someone won yesterday...is that not obscene.. with people going hungry, argggg. Anyway, back on track and off my soapbox). But that is just me and I never have been accused of being the wisest person in the world with money. If I were, I would be carrying a $50 bag until it worn out.Yeah I’m definitely leaning that way. It’s not a powerhouse like a Birkin or anything. Maybe it’s only a collector bag in MY mind.
I absolutely love the look of The Row leather, but I have changed over the last year and a bag that is a puddle of leather drives me batty. I hope I am not turning into a grumpy old woman!
I would. Bags are meant to be used, and I'd be happy knowing someone was using the collectable bag I sold.
Resale never really entered my mind until TPF. And thinking about cost per wear gives me a headache.
But I guess if you’re spending megabucks on a bag it may come into play. I’m strictly minor league when it comes to that type of thing.I know! I get a bit stressed looking at stuff that sits on my shelf unused. Ideally I’d like to have maybe a couple dozen bags max that I rotate frequently.
Yes, I would still do it, as long as I know that the new bag will be something I will use a lot and it will be a keeper for a relatively long time. I feel like if it meets that criteria, then resale value doesn't matter because I'm not planning on selling it anytime soon lol.
Funny mine really changes up due to lighting, I’ll get some pics up.
I say go for it, but also follow your gut. I knew you would find in soon@Nibb I found the Row bag at 2/3 the price, it has to be a mistake because the same company is selling it for more in the US. Dilemma, what do I sell in order to buy it???
I have sold a couple that didn’t work for me and never looked back.
Yes, none of my bags have great resale, especially the ones I purchased new.
I remember you bailed from BV for the same reason, you may prefer a bit of structure to your bags. Not grumpy just picky like the rest of us.
I did and I still drool every time I see a BV Veneta! Maybe the pandemic has just made me grouchy and I will recover from this. It certainly limits my buying these gorgeous, squishy, yummy bags.
