Chanel and Louis Vuitton at Costco? Yikes!

Written on November 15th, 2009 by Johnno shouts

My sister is a high fashion freak and god knows what she’s paid for some of the bags she owns. To me, a deal is a deal. So when Costco started selling designer bags that are known for rarely (if ever) going on sale at a discount, it seemed good.

But not everyone is happy at the lower prices. Those who are designer purists can’t imagine buying a $1000+ bag at anywhere other than boutiques or luxury department stores. They say buying elsewhere taints the brand. And I guess I could see that…kinda sucks to buy your designer bag along with the jumbo pack of toilet paper.

What are your thoughts? Does the limited number of these bags available at Costco make them less ‘elite’ for everyone else? Or is it just a part of business?
