I was not into LV at all, I thought it was overrated. Once Dillards started selling the pre-loved ones, I actually picked one up and was amazed how light it was, I was in shock. I still wasn't sold on how expensive the canvas was. But then my Dooney florentine hand bags got too heavy. I started doing some research and learned more about LV. Then I got a pre-loved speedy and well it was down hill for me from there. I did sell that bag and tried many times to find something else less expensive but there is just nothing I like. My love is the Speedy B - fits all my needs perfectly. I like the feel of the LV canvas and since I carry DE 99% of the time, I love how much of a workhorse it is plus I never have to worry about the FL rainstorms. I also like knowing when I get tired of my items, they can easily be resold. I also like to buy bandeaus to dress up my bags; it's a nice treat and gives them a fresh new look that not everyone has. I am definitely a LV girl now! Plus honestly, the way I used to buy and sell bags I am probably saving money because I have found my true ride and die style!
