I think there are a few explanations for how people afford to buy expensive bags so frequently- 1. They don’t! In other words, they buy fake 2. They buy, unbox, film and return 3. They go into massive debt to afford these bags (this is a lot more common than we think) 4. They have rich parents or partners to supplement their own incomes 5. They literally don’t have any other hobbies such as travelling or responsibilities such as kids etc. and/or live off ramen noodles to afford an outwardly luxurious lifestyle 6. They have reached a point where they are gifted luxury goods to review them 7. They possibly resell old bags to afford new ones
@@Ada-fk7qp that’s obviously a category, but those people are in a small minority and that doesn’t make the other categories “untrue”. 🤨🙄We are talking about how people who aren’t super high earners or obvious millionaires seem to be affording new bags every week or month. That’s excessive behaviour even for a high earner, let alone the rest.
I always wondered too. I mean, buying one luxury bag while saving for several months, ok I understand, but how do so many "young women" in their twenties, barely finished studying, manage to have so many Birkins, Kellys, Chanels, etc. ? Gosh these are 10-15K bags!!! This makes me question myself*, being in my mid-thirties 😂😂 (*Not!!). Great video!
The trend is very very much the same with Indian beauty/lifestyle influencers as well. I remember 1 video where an Indian influencer went on a holiday to US, came back and made a US haul video where she claimed to have purchased 12 pre-loved luxury bags during a single trip. I mean pre loved is still cheaper i get it but TWELVE fucking bags? Its crazy right?
Yes I agree there many influencers posing with dupes and acting as though they have the income to sustain this luxurious lifestyle. I don’t buy it even for celebs-thanks for your honesty.
Glad you make this kind of videos Michelle! I do question some of the RUclipsrs I follow. Especially the ones who do not explain how they’re able to afford the luxury bags. No need to go into details. Like, heyjune for example. Someone asked her, and she said she’s a doctor. She has no kids too.. so it makes sense. But some are shady. They don’t get VIP gifts nor invited to the exclusive events, yet they unbox luxury bags relentlessly from the same brand.
You are so right about people not caring about your handbag, as a person who buys only Louis Vuitton I can assure you that nobody cares about your bag, I started buying super fakes and the reaction was the same, nobody cares it’s just a bag. And yes plenty of rich people buy fakes, who’s buying an all leather purse for 5k with a “subtle logo”? You can get a great leather bag for a way much affordable price, it’s the brand that we as consumers buy, the quality in some of these fashion houses has gone down they always come out with a new bag every week and the price keeps going up. Sorry but fakes are the new thing and I know for a damn that plenty of people own them and nobody cares. Fashion is fashion and style is style. You don’t need to spend 5k on a bag to look expensive, only wannabes do that.
@mariath497 I bet you rock the bag! It’s about wearing the items not the other way around, fashion should be fun and shouldn’t cost thousands. I enjoy my real and fakes ☺️ if anything I get compliments on the fakes. And I worry less about them getting ruined.
I wonder to myself about people buying multiple bags every month too! 🤔 One more scenario that’s worth mentioning are the people who have huge authentic collections (and aren’t wealthy) that have been collecting for decades. Yes they have a lot, but over the course of many many years.
Hi Michelle, Thank you for doing this video. I hope you have a great new years eve and a great 2024. Looking forward to seeing your new videos next year as well. 🙂
Thank you Michelle! When I saw this lady has all the Chanel colors of the classic style, my suspicion goes really high. There is no way! Or she earned the money on RUclips then turn around to buy a new bag? Still sounds insane
People should just be confident with what they wear… I had a dupe Hermes and no one asked if it was fake…. I wore a real LV and people who asked if it’s fake I said yes then tell them oh look theirs $2000 receipt I guess it’s real… so just be confident people are confused what is real anyways… love the topic thanks❤
This is the reason I prefer or rather buy a contemporary bags, firstly, I can afford it and not horrendously expensive, secondly, the quality is the same if not, so much better, thirdly, it's not going to hurt me that much if I damaged the bag, not that I want that to happen, forthly, I cannot afford a designer bag 😅 lastly, I buy something because I want it and keep it. I don't mind people being honest buying a replica or fake ones, at least your being honest about it and not pretending.😊 Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year Michelle. Great video ❤
Great post and honestly prefer contemporary bags over fakes, for the only reason I can try them in person. See if they fit my stuff if they go with my height and so many other things. Nope I can’t do fakes, I prefer a coach bag inspired on LV. They do really satisfy me.
Great informative video and I've always wondered that too., How could they afford to buy Chanel, LV, Hermes monthly..🤔 I don't have that kind of money..lol..I'm a bag lover, I have a few LV's most are preloved and vintage. Now I actually enjoyed Contemporary brands like Coach because it's an affordable luxury. Thank you for sharing. ❤️
I always get really confused when I see online shops with considerable stock of luxury brands, like Hermès. We all know that in real life you need to get to a queue for a purchase of iconic pieces, so how these shops get so many brand new items at the same time, with multiple colors or sizes? And how people invest so much money on possibly fake items just to pretend they're part of a group... exact the same group that would recognize a fake (?)
I watch their videos, but lately have thought 💭 why would anyone want or buy that many bags -especially canvas? I have about 10 (5 too many) I think it’s an addiction to outshine their competitors on RUclips, but one day they will realize it’s a losing game and you’re stuck with all that “stuff”
Ive been asking myself how home influencers have these big houses, filled with brand new 100-150k kitchens yet are always buying, redecorating, remodeling etc. Add in the clothes, shoes, bags its just insane to me.
one thing to add if all these people are wealthy are they not afraid of exposing their kids and family on social media and putting them in danger.Displaying their jewelries,birkins & kellys it’s like telling the whole world come rob us.lol😂
Excellent video and so glad you brought this subject to light! There are several I wonder about for sure and I'm like...How can you afford all these luxury bags but then won't even get your new growth touched up! Girl Bye! We all know the T!
A lot buy on credit cards, some live with partners or parents for free, some inherited money, and some have a sugar daddy, and maybe a couple have really good paying jobs.
I have been buying for over 20 years, long before RUclips existed. All of my bags are authentic. I don’t exclusively buy luxury bags. As someone with a good job, no kids and little overhead, I can afford to buy a few bags a year, whether new or preloved. But no way could I afford to do that once a month. There are quite a few RUclipsrs I have been wondering about, especially younger ones, who have massive collections and seem to in no way have the income to afford even one bag a year.
I have the Moreau st tropez PM and I love it. I use it as a purse and diaper bag. I like it better than neverfull bc the straps are more comfortable and you can add a zipper if you want.
Everything stems from the wealth effect, especially in Asia. Over the past decade, property appreciation has made many luxury goods no longer seem luxurious. In China and Hong Kong, if you own more than two houses, the money generated is enough to buy many bags without having to think twice.
I just don’t know why some influencers buy so many and then tell us that they don’t use them. I have a very small amount of luxury handbags because I use them. Otherwise, I feel I’m wasting my money and I am not a collector of expensive items
Love these videos! I don’t own replicas but I would definitely consider one now days because the quality can be the same and sometimes better. I don’t think there’s any way these influencers are buying real bags at the rate some of them unbox them.
Yeah I started questioning this awhile ago. Like how do you all afford these bags on the regular basis. Even the people who buy resale. Like you really can’t buy $7500 bags resale every month??? That’s suspicious.
me, myself used to buy many second hand bags, jewelry and shoes, i tought they were for myself, then make videos post them in my youtube chanel. After some months i needed money so i sold them all and bought some second hand fakes bc i discovered they were really cheap and kept the look, i still posted them in my youtube chanel but i told they were second hand fakes,i dk why i were honest lol. But i dont keep all the things i had, if i were now i would have like a hundred bags and shoes, now that i have 25 i feel better i used to feel overwhelmed
I think you really suffer low self-esteem when u have to beg a brand to take ur money. It's a total turn-off. I would never jump through hoops or belittle myself to reach quotas to buy a purse! There's too many designers out there who would be happy to take your money, who appreciate their customers. Besides, style cannot be bought. It comes from within! Being chic doesn't come from the price tag of the bag. It's a way of carrying yourself. I can be chic & stylish without spending thousands on a purse
Ladies get real. Some people are trust fund babies, receive a large inheritance, or perhaps have a healthy financial portfolio that allows them a high dollar, disposable, yearly income. Look at all the Yacht’s around the world. Men spend enormous amounts of money on their “collections”. Just because a woman chooses handbags as her collection of choice doesn’t make her a crook or ingenuous. Sit back and enjoy the show! If it makes you envious, that’s your problem.
Don’t know which store you were from. I was the eBay store for a reseller who was buying monthly from LV and shipping here for me to sell brand new stuff expensive! Laundering?
Laundering…🤔 I’m in So Cal. For anyone wondering, re-sellers would buy styles that are hard to get and/or sell to people who are not near a boutique…or eBay!
lol got bitten by the luxury bug during covid - went n got a few authentic bags, tried to get a second hand bag n got scammed w a fake and discovered the (glorious) fake market! so i own a variety of bags now and i realize i eventually still gravitate towards my longchamps haha😂 girl, those luxury bags either fit nothing or are way too heavy!!
Great video! Thanks for sharing this information. Since you brought it up, if LVLoverCC buys all of her expensive items for real and her husband doesn’t pay for most of it, how does she afford it with a part time job and 3 kids? Just wondering…

@Rose, i don’t disagree with you. I do believe this as well. I don’t have a problem with it. How a person chooses to spend their money is their business. What I have a problem with is lying about it.
I do not believe she buys any fakes. Remember she may work part time but owns a business in Korea so I assume that's where the wealth lies. She has a family, but that does not mean others are not working for her generating wealth.
@dogs1: thanks for sharing this information. That makes sense. I didn’t know that. I didn’t specifically say I thought she bought fakes. It was the opposite. I just said her income did not match how much she buys per month. Based on what she shared on RUclips.
business in Korea? in her old old videos she once said that they were not rich in her native land.Also in her old old videos she always say that “it’s a gift from hubby”.
All my bag that I talk about on my channel is real. Now I have 3 fake Chanel bags and I have never talked about it on my channel. I will probably never talk about it on my channel and then pass it as real. Now I’m not rich obviously but I also get between 2 - 4 Luxury bags a year. I actually sold a home for my client and I have money burning in my pocket. Then my hubby is going to buy me a bag for valentines / My birthday / our anniversary. Can’t wait. I will never be able to afford a Berkin or Kelly and I’m fine with it. I do believe there are many influencers that have fake bags and try to pass them as real. I so agree.
The only replica bag in my collection is my Chanel I recently bought from Istanbul and I’m open about it but I do know some that have things they haven’t said are replicated. All my others are authentic and bought from store but I can’t afford to spend 10k on a Chanel. I love my replica, it’s full leather and I’ve been told it’s a good one. I don’t care who knows it’s not real 🥰
I have a friend who buys 4-5 pcs of luxury bags a year. She got one room full of these expensive bags. I dont consider bags as an investment. So far i only have 3 luxury bags in my life. LV, D&G and Chloe. The last one I bought from my Crypto gains. I prefer buying gold and silver coins and bars. Crypto is a better choice of investment than bags.
Honestly, I think most of the bags I see being carried are fake. There are those that are obvious but super fakes are so close to real no one would know.
The amount of people unboxing berkins other extremely expensive bags on here is ridiculous. They are obviously fake and that’s FINE, but it’s the faking that I think is crazy. They are unknowingly encouraging people to go and give these luxury brands more money. They are buying fake and working for free as a marketer for luxury brands.

Very well said- and i agree with on all of it.
Some are honest about ALL of these things and the authentic ones I appreciate
Untrue , some people have high incomes or invest their money.

Hi Michelle, Thank you for doing this video. I hope you have a great new years eve and a great 2024. Looking forward to seeing your new videos next year as well. 🙂
Thanks for posting the question!!
I've wondered this for a long time. Thank you for putting it out there for the rest of RUclips to ponder on. Everything is not as it seems.
Let's just be honest...
Girl, keep telling the truth! They are perpetrating. Great video!😊

Lovely to see you again Michelle. I just figured those with 10 LV unboxings a month had wealthy parents or a very wealthy husband.
Thanks for joining Petrina! 10 unboxings a month! 😂 happy holidays!

Or their buying Vintage at a steep discount and you just don’t realize.
Great video Michelle!!

I know that it couldn’t be you just confirmed what I’ve always thought 🙏🏿🙌🏾👏🏾👍🤗🥰😘😍❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹🇯🇲🇺🇸
They also may be secretly escorting which is totally fine
Best comment 🎉🤣
Selling your body is not okay. Your body is a temple.
😂 there are no amount of bags that will make me do that kind of work
And some of them are going to Dubai and trading in their souls and their dignity for handbags… 😢 it’s horrific

Don’t know which store you were from. I was the eBay store for a reseller who was buying monthly from LV and shipping here for me to sell brand new stuff expensive! Laundering?
West palm store, turned a blind eye to the insane amount of stuff that was being purchased constantly never used immediately resold
Laundering…🤔
I’m in So Cal. For anyone wondering, re-sellers would buy styles that are hard to get and/or sell to people who are not near a boutique…or eBay!
Good evening beautiful Michelle happy to see you your face is flawless love it 🙏🏿🙌🏾👏🏾👍🤗🥰😘😍❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹🇯🇲🇺🇸
I was watching Emily in Paris and she was rocking two Chanel bags.. lol
Ooo interesting topic.
lol got bitten by the luxury bug during covid - went n got a few authentic bags, tried to get a second hand bag n got scammed w a fake and discovered the (glorious) fake market! so i own a variety of bags now and i realize i eventually still gravitate towards my longchamps haha😂 girl, those luxury bags either fit nothing or are way too heavy!!
Right? Longchamp for the win!
Most people do buy fake every other person i see have a really high ends bags so i also said to myself not real🙏🏿🙌🏾👏🏾👍🤗🥰😘😍❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹🇯🇲🇺🇸

Who knows what will be in the world situation during wars and economic crises. Today Luxury means - make some one rich, not you.
Yessss 💯
I mean Theresa for one has a mix of Reals, Fakes, Dupes, all sorts of things.
I have a friend who buys 4-5 pcs of luxury bags a year. She got one room full of these expensive bags. I dont consider bags as an investment. So far i only have 3 luxury bags in my life. LV, D&G and Chloe. The last one I bought from my Crypto gains. I prefer buying gold and silver coins and bars. Crypto is a better choice of investment than bags.

I didnt quite understand what you meant about lvlovercc. Do you think she is naturally rich or she’s also one of those who fake it?
She has had the private LV shopping trailer come to her, she’s legit.
