What is the most that you'd spend on a handbag?

[Sloane_Ranger]

About 2 K american, I would say.
Although I love fashion, anything above that would make me question if it were really worth it and if the money could not be better spent.

I'm "comfortable" around $500, but my limit would be around 1K

 

[lovingmybags]

$500 for a leather bag, not more. I usually hunt on the 'Bay for deals to go with my comfort range!

 

[Forsyte]

$500

But I do have an LV speedy. That was an exception.

 

[zjajkj]

I have spend 5 digits individually on a couple of bags before

 

[jaggg88]

well I've spent $600 on a fake..but got my money back

 

[Vintagelover1]

I think $500... Im working on saving up for my first designer bag (it will have to be pre-loved of course).

My comfort point is around $2500, but I don't have a hard-fast limit. It would just have to be REALLY special....like a Birkin. Barring that, I typically can easily find something around my normal comfort point so I've never "needed" to go above that.

I probably wouldn't go over 3000€. I tend to analyze and rationalize my purchases carefully evaluating the features (pockets, closure, etc.), quality, materials and how the bag matches different outfits before making any decisions. I'd rather save the money than pay for something I don't really need and/or something that I would end up tossing in the closet after using it a couple of times.

I recently passed on a Valentino Aphrodite (which I've been lusting after for about half a year and finally found at a designer boutique) just because I didn't find it worth its price compared to my other bags. For 1500 € you think you'd get a proper closing mechanism instead of one tiny magnetic button closure. I might change my mind about it at some point if it goes on a sale.

$1K is the most I've paid for a purse, but I would never spend over $1500.

 

[phoebe.bqueen]

1500, unless it's a very good collectors item

 

[ln88]

$2,000 is the most I've ever spent on a bag and probably the most I ever will.

Now that I am living on my own, I am going to say that $1,000 is the most I will spend in the future for a bag - at least until I double my salary!

 

[PrincessBailey]

The most I would give for a handbag is two thousand (This number may change if I see a glossy pink Chanel )

*P.S: Since I am a teen with nothing to pay, the number is higher ;D*

 

[PickyCoachLover]

$2k is the highest I have reached. It was for a very special bag, too. LOL!
I probably won't spend over that, but you never know...when I bought my first Coach I said I never would spend more than $500.
Ooops.

I think $500... Im working on saving up for my first designer bag (it will have to be pre-loved of course).

AHH! I'm getting my first "real" (Not including Coach) designer bag soon . I hope to see it soon
