The most expensive bag I own was a gift from my soon to be mother in-law. She bought me an Ostrich Birkin that (I think) was around $15,000. Needless to say it's still in my closet! I haven't had the guts to take it out yet, I kind of think it would look ridiculous on me, I'm 21! Anyway, it was a very generous gift and I'm glad she likes me that much lol. Most expensive bag I purchased was a gift to my mother for mother's day last year, a white Louis Vuitton Suhali Le Febuleux.. I don't remember exactly how much it was, maybe around $4,000. She gave birth to me, least I can do is buy her nice things!:love:

Unleash the birkin or at least let us see pictures to :drool: over. Lindsay Lohan uses hers all the time and she is younger than you isn't she? I wouldn't care about age when it comes to something like Birkins mate:heart:

SUCH a lovely thing to read! i'm so glad ur family is giving like that, it must make collecting that much more fuN!

i am SO the odd man out... the most i've paid is $212, and i haven't even paid yet, it goes out on FRIDAY LOL. it's for a brand spanking new Kooba Bonnie, and for all of you it's nothing, but i'm excited. i'm 22, and can't afford all your DELICIOUS sounding (and looking) bags. yall are lucky i'm not close enough to drool! this is my tiny lil "most expensive" purchase ;) hehe. my mother had a 400 dollar black leather coach tote she gave me, but i do not think that counts, as i did not purchase it. this last purchase i made i'm SO excited over... and it was only like 200 bucks... thats my BILLS PAID or ALMOST HALF MY RENT LOL

I love this place!! I've been criticized a lot for owning a Birkin, my friends told me I would look so snobby carrying it.. but I've decided it's time it comes out of the closet!:cutesy: My future mother in-law is wonderful and extremely generous and loves purses more than anyone I've ever met.. Hermes in Paris know her on a first name basis and she doesn't even live in France.

It's pink, and am excited to post pictures now:yes: will try to soon, and I'll ask my mom if I can take a picture of the handbag I got her :)

It's pink, and I will post pictures as soon as I get the chance! (got excited:p )
 
My most expensive bag purchase so far has been a pre-loved MJ Sophia on ebay for 385. But remember, I'm in grad school and jobless.. haha. I had extra money from my tax return and I went for it. Sometimes I think I need to do things like that to stay sane!
 
Mine was my leather gucci horsebit hobo aka the chain which was originally 1700 can tax included...but I actually got that one on sale...so that's my most expensive bag...however the most I paid for one would be my purse for 1100 us
 
My Bottega Veneta, retail $2800, I paid about $2000 from a fellow Purse Forum member, it was brand new never used and is my favorite!

My Chanel Bordeaux distressed lambskin Reissue in the 225 size.. it was $2,029 with tax, the retail was $1,875.

Wow i think it makes a huge difference when you list prices with the thousands separator versus without, it looks so much more expensive with the comma.... :wtf::wtf:
