Vintage Chanel

[lina girl]

Hi all: Got a question I hope someone can help me with. A while ago I went to a church bazaar and on the table there were a bunch of bags. One was a well worn bag, creamy tan color with the silver Chanel logo on the opening. I thought it might be authentic and at the time did not want to spend the 35 dollars on it (now I wish I had) cause back then I was not into bags just recently and now am obsessed. Anyways, instead I bought a cute Ralph Lauren bag and when I went back to the table I was still wrestling whether to buy the Chanel bag it just looked so so worn out. Question: Are vintage chanel bags worth something? I know I could have had it repaired but back then I did not know much about Chanel bags.
Thanks for your input,

Maybe you can put this under Chanel Designer Sub-Forum. There's a lot of Chanel Addicts there who can help you.

Yes, vintage bags are still worth some money. The vintage XL jumbo for example has been on eBay for around $800 in some auctions. Given the age of some of those bags, I'd say it's pretty good.
