Okay I must be the only cheap ass person left on GC!
Back in college, when mom and daddy used to support me, I had expensive stuff - but now that I am single and in the working world with house and car payments - money going into retirement and other general bills, i buy all my bags at like TARGET! $19.99 for a simple black bag that I carry all the time. I looked up this LV MURAKAMI bag on ebay and it was going for $3500. I make good money in my job, but geezus - for $3500 not only would I carry that bag every day for the rest of my life, but I better be able to drive it and use it for shelter.
i sound like my mom now....i digress
