This was a reputable boutique but I thought I would go and check the LV store first so I would know what to look for. I went to the LV store in Houston Galleria a few weeks ago and the salesman told me to buy the bag if they have a guarantee on authencity and if I was unsure if it was real, he would be happy to check it out for me. Most high end stores will not give you information over the phone, but if you come in the store you shouldn't have a problem.

Really? That's interesting. I didn't think of that!
That is cool.

Consignment shops are wonderful for bridge and designer handbag deals, if they have a good reputation and are reliable. There are a couple out here in Kollyfornia that I've found good stuff for. For instance, I have my only Gucci, a brown leather bamboo-handle hobo, from a consigner. Cost me less than $50 and it is authentic. At another consigner, a similar bag was more than $400.

The places I go to also sell fakes/replicas, but they clearly mark them and I appreciate that.

I must admit those bags are cute, but I can't spend that much for a bag. I believe my mother would beat me down for spending that much on a bag and not putting my money in savings. I wouldn't blame. I guess if the price is right and the bag is cute I would buy it, but 200 buck on a purse is still a bit much for me. Even if I wasn't broke...

Hey Y'all,

I have been out of the loop for a minute, I just got back from my first Regional! I ordered ANOTHER bag, a Christian Dior Saddle bag from www.everydayluxury.com, and it is beautiful too!

Now they have Christian Dior and Gucci.
Has anyone else seen that site? A few ladies that use my hairdresser got some stuff too. I know y'all are sick of me, but the site really has good stuff!

Last post!

i have several LVs (w/an eye on the next one) and they are worth it. if you can find one on Ebay, in a consignment shop, at an estate sale, whateverr, it's worth it. the bags last a long time (the oldest is 17 ). the fakes, not into those but i'd rather someone pay good money for real versus very little for a fake. remember if you pay $ 20.00, you'll get $ 20.00's worth'a use
