I recently saw a shop that sold very good imitation Bal bags to my horror and ever since then, my love for the brand has really dipped. I know other designer brands have tonnes of imitations as well but those for some reason don't seem to affect me as much as Bal.


I like mine...not sure I love. I sold two in very good to excellent condition. I paid $1500 and only received approximately $900 back =( I don't see them as a "good investment" they don't hold their value as a Chanel or LV will. They are quite fragile.

I regret my town because it's too small. I do like the crossbody option though.

Was this newbagfactory on ioffer lol? They're Bal imitations are astonishing. I bet they reek of chemical smell though as all fakes do.:sick:
 
My Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene Neverfull. I really hated how the top of the bag is pretty open. I only carried it a handful of times and then gave it to my Grandma. She loves it to death, so at least it went to a good home. :smile1:

Bal GH City, to me GH now looks so dated and so over... And I believed the seller when she said that it had only been used 'a few times'... Older and wiser now.

I still love GH! I have been looking for a City with GGH for a while actually.

I regret purchasing my coach ashley in the steel color. The outlet was having a $50 off sale when you purchased $250 worth of products. I purchased 2 bags, so with the discount, I only paid $90 for this bag. Even though the metallic color is very soft and subtle, I still never carry it because I'm not a big fan of metallics.
I actually like this bag :)
 
Definitely two Fendi bags, don't know the names, but both were poor quality. On the tote the metal Fendi clasp fell off within weeks!

Only purchased one Fendi after those two as it was irresistible - the Crossword, which so far is fine except for some kind of melted-looking glue under the mesh, but it came like that (from TheOutnet.com). :S
 
My mulberry travel day bag the metal plaque keeps falling out every time i open the bag. Wish I brought the bays water or del rey instead!! It's a lot nicer and cheaper!! It's my only mulberry too so I was expecting better.
 
Old thread but I regret selling my Cabas Mezzo :( I wasn't aware that setting her down with all the vachetta would mark her up!! When it did I never used her and sold her. Ugh.

Regret selling my MC Speedy 30 (color transfer issues on outer pocket), and sold her. And now the MC being phased out (I've heard?) I'm sad as I can justify spending $3k just to have it again.

And I regret selling my mono cles. Never used it and wish I had one for cards/days I don't want to carry much. I'm cles-less :(
 
I regret buying the following:

Tory Burch Robinson Double Zip Tote - This bag convinced me that I really do not like Saffiano leather. It feels like not real leather. And the bag is damn heavy even without anything in it. I think I've used it less than five times.

Furla Candy Satchel - Again, too heavy. Although everytime I carry it I get complimented. The hot pink color is nice though
 
Oh I bought a blue Coach signature bag when I was about 23 and was so excited about it...until I look it home and the blue didn't really go with anything I owned so I never used it and eventually gave it away to my sister who was in college
