Yes, I have both. The sentimental bag is in its original box with some other mementos. The "duplicate" if you will gets used regularly, as the sentiment is really with the moment, and not the bag itself. So I put the significant one away.Ahhh yaaasss @pasdedeux1! That is exactly why I’m contemplating this ridiculousness. It’s a rare and sentimental bag. I’m not one to care about rare bags and wanting to collect them. Even having similar bags (ie: different color or size or hardware) makes me rethink the purchase but the fact that this bag means something special, makes me want to have one as a “backup”. It sounds so ridiculous, I know, lol.
Did you end up keeping them?

I’m definitely fine with having the same bag but in different leathers, hardware and shades of color. I usually prefer jumbos because they just work better for meIt’s a pretty special bag but the same bag nonetheless...would you do it?
I know there’s plenty that have the same bag but maybe in a different print or canvas or leather but how dumb is it to have the exact, same bag?
TIA!
I know of someone who bought ( back then.. like 8yrs ago ) 2 of the exact same GST from Paris boutique. I remembered that very clearly because she bought 2 ... i... ended up with none. She said she really loved the GST .. so 1 was to be used daily as her battle bag.. the other... was supposed to be a 'display' momento for her special trip to Paris.Yes, I already have the one bag now and I’ve used it more than some of my other Chanel bags that I’ve had longer. I was worried I was going to over use it and it will get ruined [emoji17]
