i dun understand the exorbitant price behind the bag... but i appreciate the effort being put into making it



nope, i dun think i'll understand how a bag can cost a bomb (trust me, its a very big bomb) and yet still command such high demand. 

and i'll never understand how a term "vintage" or "classic" can edge off the fact that the design really has really been around for decades without much change.

(try telling a woman that she looks "vintage" and see what happens...) 

guess i'll never will. 

but i do appreciate the craftsmanship being put into the making of such bags.

it could be the fine cutting of the leather. 

or maybe the hand stitching. 

sometimes, it's down to this small little leather wrapped lock.

still...

... would i pay a bomb for such bags? i guess not.
 
but i'm sure they bring happiness to the owners, happiness which can't be measured by dollars and cents. 

(hmm... or is it that it can't be measured by dollars and sense.)

& if my friends are happy, then it's good enough for me.   :)



and as for me, i'll be waiting for my 16" Alien Queen figurine to arrive...  something which i believe it's a purchase my friends will never understand.  :P
