      Yep when people find out how much Hermes artisans get paid for producing those 10000 euro bags, they completely lose it 😂 it's pretty crazy but the power of the brand is undeniable. Sadly, not many Hermes customers would buy an identical bag from the same Hermes artisans without all the extra stuff that comes with it: status, packaging, the shopping experience and lastly the huge brag it all entails 🤦‍♀️

      @@ninjaturtles12121 how do you think these wallets are made? Their majority made in Italy which doesn’t have a great living wage anyway. Even then wallets like this are still put through sewing machines making it very easy and quick to make such products. If you don’t know how manufacturing works then don’t comment. I for one have a degree in fashion, manufacturing and production. There isn’t 1 person making a wallet, there are several people who assemble different parts at a fast pace to keep up with production. At the end there is 1 person and 1 machine that does the final assembly. There is nothing different from a Italian textiles factory to a Chinese factory the only difference is better living standards and a little more time taken. wallets are also made from left over fabric from larger bulk cutouts to reduce wastage and to maximise profits. I for one would never bother buying such rubbish 😂 so $10/ £10/ 10 Euros is about right for 1 wallet during manufacturing. That love and care you think your products get from such manufacturers isn’t really there. It’s not haute couture, it really isn’t that luxury especially from Louie Vuitton. You want quality and 1 person making your bag/ wallet go to a actual independent leather worker who makes things by hand not to a brand in it for money like this, because all your really buying is their left over scrap fabric turned into a wallet by several people costing very little to make with more polyester then natural material.

    10 dollars for labor. It would be good to know the amount of time and the rate/hour he’s using. So in the states, I think the LVMH employees get about 15- 22/hour at the factory which is cheaper than making in France so that took less than 30 minutes to make. That seems awfully quick

      Most of the people in the comments on Tanners videos are extremely gullible and will believe anything he says.
      The glazing alone would take quite a bit of extra time for example. People also don’t understand there are vastly different quality levels of leather dyeing and tanning. Tanner himself is extremely ignorant on the subject. It’s kind of hilarious how easily his videos dupe people who want to believe they just got the inside scoop on something with his “special knowledge”.

      $10 in labor if it was made in China maybe. Not in Italy or France.
      I'm not going to pretend LV isn't overpriced but to say you could make this wallet for $30 just seems idiotic. LV financials are public domain and they report a profit margin around 60-70%. Not 1000%.

What we forget is they also invest a lot of money in package, design of the product, distribution, people who work in boutiques.

    Where do you get vachetta for $10 a sqft? Maybe if it is natural but still I don't think that is correct. Maybe if you bought a whole side. But buying pre cut is like $18-$20 a sqft.

    Designer items like these are often never "worth the money" if you're just looking at the quality, build and labor and that's coming from someone who buys designer items. It's about the status symbol that's what it's always been about, when you start talking about $500 dollars for a wallet or $1250 for a Chanel wallet you're obviously paying a huge amount for the branding. Most folks who buy this stuff are well aware. These aren't for people just looking for a quality leather wallet, you could find that from an unknown name for half the price.

    Dear Tanner, you omitted the embossed logotypes, i.e. the monogram pattern. I imagine the machine that does it also needs to be designed, calibrated, manned and so on. Plus the whole designing aspect - that's another person employed, another set of tools (a pc, some software etc.). Also, in Europe, employers cover healthcare and pension contribution for the workers. Furthermore, there are taxes, electricity and water bills for the factory and so on. Your estimates are more fitted to the small, few people-operated businessess.

    The type of leather used comes from a vicuna camel. They are actually protected animal in the Andes. Because they can not be farm raised and are only able to be sheared every 2 years by local indigenous people. So the leather is actually very expensive.

    I feel like these accessories that we use every single day should either be very utilitarian, or look good, or embody a part of you. Like glasses, keychains, and wallets.
    I bought my current wallet on a lark, but I love it. Handmade by a small store. The outer lining is made of recycled bike tyres and the inner lining is leather with a subtle orange finish.
    Bike tyres are extremely durable. No scratches and it's become very soft. I've had it for close to 2 years. I love it.

    I know I’m paying for the status symbol. I could be wrong, but I think most people who buy designer are very well aware of this and don’t mind at all. Sure, I expect attention to detail, nice seams, symmetry and so on. And I value having items made in Europe as opposed to Asia. I also expect a certain experience when I shop in luxury stores. But at the end of the day, I’m not gonna sit here and justify the price by mentioning materials or even craftsmanship. I know exactly what I’m paying for and I am happy to do so. It’s something that brings me joy. I have a display case for my bags, I use them all but also take great care of them. I generally buy more subtle items, not with massive logos or monogram, because I don’t need the world to know what I’m carrying, it’s for myself. I did grow up poor, and always dreamed of having certain things that seemed unattainable. Now I can have them and they genuinely make me happy. Maybe that’s the reason, but I also think it’s just a natural interest that I have, because as a child I would spend hours playing fashion games and looking at designer websites.
    Most people, no matter their budget, will find things they’re willing to splurge on, whatever that may look like for them. For some it may mean spending $2, for some $20, and for others it might mean spending $20000 or more.
    People are allowed to do what they want with their money and we’re all overpaying for everything we buy, anyway. We all have different interests and values, and there’s no sense in judging. We don’t know what’s in other people’s bank accounts, or in their minds. Just be financially responsible, and also treat yourself to things that make you happy, whether it’s food, bags, furniture or whatever!

    I bought a basic coach wallet, like four or five years ago to replace my duct tape wallet I made in like first grade and had been carrying for 15 years. I don’t know if it’s real leather, I don’t know if it’s good quality or anything like that. But it feels brand new to this day and doesn’t have any scratches or wear marks. It’s a nice wallet and I got it on sale at coach warehouse for like $20. I will most likely continue to use it for years to come.
    Now back to the duct tape. This was back in like 2002, before the whole duct tape accessory thing became cool in the “scene” movement. I would make wallets of all sorts, handbags, totes, phone cases (usually for flip phones and nokias), etc… I even made a case for my original Nintendo, DS. All my neighbors and family members were buying duct tape stuff from me. I felt like the big boss.

    About 5 years ago I bought a LV wallet (at the LV store) for myself in Toronto, Canada where I’m from and paid around $250 for it and was great, the quality was great and the leather fell great to the touch too, it said it was made in France and after 5 years some of the stitching started to break, this year back in April I had the opportunity to travel to France, Paris to be exact and walked into the LV store there, asked the sale person to show me the same exact wallet model I have, he looked at it, got the model number and in 5 minutes I had the wallet in front of me, it said it was the same model number and everything, but right away I noticed the quality wasn’t the same, this new one felt very stiff and actually if it wasn’t a LV store, I would’ve thought it was a fake wallet, the saleperson told me is because was it brand new and with time and use it would fell just like my old one, I knew it wasn’t true because my old one was very nice and soft since day one, but I end up buying it anyway, paid $300 this time and after 6 month of use, the new wallet still stiff as it was the day I got it and not just that, with this one my bank cards and credit cards barelly fit in the card slots and I’m not very happy with it to the point that I went to my local cobbler and he stitched up the old one for me, so I can still use it, I don’t know if anybody have had a similar experience where the same LV product bought in two different places are of different qualities?
