I buy what I love and bags are one of my vices! But hand bags are NOT investments for financial reasons- or long term gains- that are meaningful anyway- if you can afford those wild bags that are extremely expensive then you aren’t worried about selling them or money in general 😂😂 Love your videos!!!! I have the new Chanel Hobo bag in the large size- had it 2 weeks and LOVE it - carry it every day!!!
Handbags are not investments. Index funds that are tracking against the S&P 500 is better than feeding these luxury brands. There may be a time when people stop buying. The younger generations are already priced out.
Great video, as always! One thing that people forget when looking at the resale prices is the significant commission that a consignment store takes, secondly the fact that something is listed for a X price, doesn’t mean someone would be willing to actually pay that price.
Precisely, if they’re going to sell your bag for $1000, you’re probably going to get $500-600. The fact is leather goods are not an investment, if you want to invest in something wearable, fine jewelry is the best bet, but you will still will probably not make your money back, just less loss than on leather goods.
Hi, Cassie😊 I think my kind of investment will be to buy bags, slgs etc. on/for special occasions (like birthday or christmas) and trying to enjoy and actually use the things i already have (and of course save for travel😁). Nice week ahead🥰
Thank you so so much for always being my biggest inspiration Cassie love your channel lots you will always be my favourite RUclipsr ever and my inspiration thank you for always making me smile and always making my day your the queen of RUclips always ❤❤❤
I like to buy timeless bags or styles airy the occasional trendy one. Typically I buy trendy bags from lower level brands or brands that don’t really make bags because they tend to be a bit cheaper. Then I get bags that are timeless and not necessarily investment but do retain a good amount of value in case I need to offload all my assets and move to a remote island one day. 😅
The whole notion of hugely expensive items as investments is a way to make yourself feel better for the outlay 🤣 and yes Cassie you're totally not that person and I appreciate you for it. Totally understand the algorithm needs feeding 😉 Do love the disclaimer on the advice on the bag stock market.
I recently bought a bottega mini Jodie in the color ice cream(light yellow) I know it’s way passed its trend and not really it as it was but I feel in love with it would you say it’s could be considered a classic modern or just trendy bag for its time ?
I think the Gucci x Balenciaga collab was pretty groundbreaking at the time, it was the first house collab. But after that, it was like oh another one...
Buying something you don't love because you feel you may get your money back is robbing you of the enjoyment that is meant to be the whole reason of this ridiculous hobby. There is no such thing as half-ridiculous.
Ugh thanks for this video! Really appreciate going over some Hermes prices because if you don’t live by one and your trying to order preloved you don’t know if your paying too much or it it’s worth trying to wait for a trip and making an apt. If this all makes sense
I recently had a good long chat with myself wherein I had to admit that I do not plan on re-selling any of my bags. They’re family to me now, so all 20+ (and growing 😱- and yes one of them being a Fendace tote hehe) will stay with me, and probably end up going to my niece (or nephew, or both!) but hey, it’s all part of the experience right? Happy Monday, Cassie! and happy birthday month! 👀
I was struggling to sell my Loewe puzzle bumbag nowhere near the retail price, even it’s not the edge version, which i thought that gonna be desirable. Then i decided just use it until the day i die.
if people think hermes bags as investments then they need to treat it like a real investment and take into account the cost to acquire and the resale fees. yes the bags cost x and on the resale market you can sell it for x BUT what about the money you spent to get the opportunity to buy the bag and the fees the resale platform takes? Every true investment when doing the math takes into account and minuses all costs to arrive at the profit. people aren't making the money they think they are with hermes bags. People need to stop calling these bags investments if they aren't willing to stop doing girl math lol
To me getting at least half back would be worth it. I do always wonder if you are truly making money off Birkins and Kelly’s based on prespend. The Fendi Tiffany collab in satin seem to be going around retail.
Ca$$, where I'm from I can't buy Louis Vuitton online nor do they have boutiques here. So I have to get them on other reseller sites. I always pay more than retail.
I tried to take into account ones that had sold (a lot of which sold way above the prices they are now) but it’s hard to tell when those sales were made so I averaged out the lowest bag prices 💖
I think d whole "Investment Bag" have been misunderstood. 🤭 Some will say that n mean it as an "Investment" in one's wardrobe. 💖 Meanwhile some wives mby are telling their husbands: "it's an Investment Bag", meaning they are not really spending moneys because they are investing. 👀✨
Yesss this is what I said. Investment in one’s wardrobe. I think it got misconstrued somewhere along the line. When most people hear investment they automatically think financial.
the bag you said doesnt have a proper name, is actually the Chanel 25 bag. Its a new classic, a bag that will be the new IT bag from Chanel. Or so they will try.... the quality looks truly tragic
Lovely Lovely Bags Cassie 😍💖💖 and I am your biggest biggest fan you are my inspiration and I am so so so excited to watch this video May God Bless You Always Always

Relax.
This is brilliant fashion journalistic commentary. You could literally guest lecture at a uni Cassie with the knowledge you have. 👌
I want to trash my bags until they just can't hold up anymore and thank them for their service! ❤
Love thatttt Mary Kate & Olsen them

Great video! I honestly buy my luxury bags and jewelry because I like them. I also plan on forwarding them on someday to my daughter.
Me too 😊❤
I’m doing it now it’s a pleasure to watch but of course they only take what they like. Lol
Not in the market for any of these bags, but will never miss a Cassie upload! Commenting for the algorithm 😂
I appreciate you being here 🤩🤩🤩
Same. Cassie and I have totally different styles and completely opposite purchasing decisions and yet I’m completely hooked on her 😍
Coffee and Cassie! Bags, shoes and jewelry inspo. Served with a side of wit by a Brit! Love it!🥰
Your joy is radiating brighter than the sun 🌞
Oohhh you’re making me blush! 🙈💖
I think you’re spot on with the Channel hobo bag. It’s going to take off!
Stock up on your bags before tariffs hit Italy and France!😅 🛍
I know right 😭
😵💫 Sushhhhhh
For the best long term…
Exactly!! 😂

I find it to fascinating to see how the resale market moves each year 🤩

I want the 35 or 40, but still so expensive either way, I have a wirkin ❤ works fine for me
Good morning queen Cassie 👸 and her insight on handbags 👜 ❤️ 😊!!

I totally understand! You’re preaching to the choir here 😂💖💖 and you have a great memory!! 🙈💖
Hello, another informative video! Thx
You’re so welcome! 💖
The Row Margaux Dupe is at Target 😑 $35 I just can’t 🤦🏾♀️
I was struggling to sell my Loewe puzzle bumbag nowhere near the retail price, even it’s not the edge version, which i thought that gonna be desirable. Then i decided just use it until the day i die.
Ughh that’s so annoying, but it’s a great bag at least!
Then toss it in the grave with us! 🤭
@@antoniusdamar1583 until the day I die got me 🤣

I wanted to ask did you ever go to Swarovski with your sunglasses that had gems falls off 💗
I keep forgetting 🤦♀️💖

Wonderful video 👍😎🤷

Good afternoon✨ and good luck for your new Substack!
Good afternoon to you! 💖

14:36 Hiiii Geli!
🤭🤭🤭
They’re for sale? Not sold
I tried to take into account ones that had sold (a lot of which sold way above the prices they are now) but it’s hard to tell when those sales were made so I averaged out the lowest bag prices 💖
@ there are so many Hermes out there second hand it’s bonkers to me they make that massive resale price. If they were rare. But they’re everywhere!😻
@natashacampbell9277 so true, they arent rare
With the rise of fakes in most designer products, I can't see a return in investment in most luxury items.
I think d whole "Investment Bag" have been misunderstood. 🤭
Some will say that n mean it as an "Investment" in one's wardrobe. 💖
Meanwhile some wives mby are telling their husbands:
"it's an Investment Bag", meaning they are not really spending moneys because they are investing. 👀✨
Yesss this is what I said. Investment in one’s wardrobe. I think it got misconstrued somewhere along the line. When most people hear investment they automatically think financial.
Off today sorry for bing a lil late
No worries!!
I thought she said "Big Back Hermès Bags" 😂☠️
I’d be lying if it didn’t factor the re-sell when purchasing now☺️
the bag you said doesnt have a proper name, is actually the Chanel 25 bag. Its a new classic, a bag that will be the new IT bag from Chanel. Or so they will try.... the quality looks truly tragic
