Would you spend $600 on a handbag?

I just got a NICE commission check and have a $200 gift card to Macys. I want a new LV bag (speedy 25 if anyones familiar) and they have a LV counter at the macys @ roosevelt field mall. Its just for everyday use and DH feels that $600 on yet another handbag is too much. I have too many Coach bags to count, Fendis up the azz, only 2 Guccis, and 1 LV. Would you spend that kind of money on a "toss around" bag that you'll use everyday?

Mind you, DH went out yesterday and bought Xbox 360 and accessories for a grand total of $550!!! He says its different cause thats an investment and he'll use it forever...whatever!Chat Icon

Re: Would you spend $600 on a handbag?

i'd get it.

especially since he can validate his xbox......

an LV bag is timeless - a girl i work with uses her grandmothers - now that is an investment - not some technology that will go stale in a few years.

i swear all men think alikeChat Icon

Re: Would you spend $600 on a handbag?

I personally would not, but I think you should. An xbox is only an investment until the next one comes out. Then it's an overpriced, out-of-date dust collector. I should know. DH has a couple of overpriced dust collectors around. Chat Icon

An LV bag, even though I'm not a fan, is a classic.

Re: Would you spend $600 on a handbag?

OK first of all---he'll use XBOX until the newest system comes out 4 years from now. So that's a crock of s**t. All men say that. Chat Icon

You LV will last much longer that 4 years and will NEVER go out of style. I have the Babylone bag from LV and I use it EVERY DAY for work. I think it's a waste if you don't use it.

I say go for it!!!

There is no comparison between an X-box and a LV! He'll probably use the x-box until some other new game system comes out. I say buy the bag - you earned the commission so you deserve it Chat Icon

Well I just spent $300 on one and I didn't have a GC and that would be only $100 more out of your pocket.

An X box is entertainment not an investment. At least an LV bag is functional. Get the bag.
