Nov 22, 2007 in Shopping :: Fashion / Style

Everywhere you look, there are big name designer handbags, especially on the Internet. I can’t believe my sister bought one of those christian dior handbagsfor almost $1500. What is it that is so enchanting about these things that someone just has to spend that kind of money on a simple bag that just holds a girl’s “stuff” in it? Wholesale designer bags are often fakes I’m told but even those cost a lot of money. So what’s up with that? Apparently people find these bags to be very valuable and I’ve heard some of them are going to be collectors items that will actually bring in many times more than their current worth. Imagine paying $1500 for a christian dior handbagtoday and in ten years, selling it for $6,000. Sounds like a pretty good investment to me. The problem is, you just don’t know exactly which ones will still be considered highly valuable in the future.
