I most certainly would, as they add character to the bag. It makes the bag more unique with it being aged and well looked after.. So why would people buy 100+ year old LV trunks for the same cost as you buying a new one, and the answer is its history, its character and of course the style. I saw once a while back a small trunk which was on the Titanic, it was LV of course and from memory I think it was on some particular lifeboat where some daft first class passenger wanted to get her luggage on that small dingy... And the price of that trunk which was almost in tatters, $30,000. The reason for that is the history and where it has been, so therefore I would love to buy some pre-loved luggage, and would love to know where it has been, who previously owned it, so interesting!
