Ermmm...I am sorry but I don't take people who read self-help books serious. I would rather buy a bag that doubles as both than buy some splash of paint on a board (coming from a lady who loves art )

What do you know about birkin bags? Let's start from there

A birkin bag is a kind of bag. it is literally a kind of bag. It doesn't matter what kind of bag it is. it's on the same platform as every other bag. except it's more expensive.

You not taking people who read self help book is very hypocritical here. because you are talking from anecdotal evidence. you've never actually met these rich people. you're just guessing that since they have money, they shouldn't be scared of spending it.
I have actual evidence. words from these people. that indicate that opposite is the case, and you're seriously saying you don't take me seriously. wow.

openmine:
but wait ohh so sumone really went as far as investigating d authenticity of a 'common hand bag' just 2 justify dat Linda is carrying d fake one?

So Dis is how sum folks have become so jobless and lazy 2 worry ova wat Anoda person or individual is using?

I guess 'mind ur business' is no longer possible in Dis strange world....

oda developed countries r busy going into innovations dat can make life easier for folks...sum pips from Dis part of d world r busy indulging in 'gossips' and minding odas business....Chai

Just common hand bag ohhh....kai

Lolz bros you sound funny, its obvious here that u've forgotten she's a celebrity. Do you know how many bloggers have emerge from the day the actual millions this babe makes from blogging was revealed?

She posted it online after purchase and made it looked like she bought something super exclusive for a whole $25,000 that's N7.5million for just a BAG, those who knew the stuff well discovered its not the original and revealed its FAKE

My brother since its confirmed that is not actually the ORIGINAL then that investigation was worth it!!!

bigfather:

You don't even know me

I can see why you need those books but sincerely you are not applyibg the information you gain from those books.

A birkin bag is not just a bag. It is an asset which also appreciates in value

You are such a misogynist!!

Eya, this linda girl no just get luck with naija peeps, Pele linda

@the bolded. I've said this before. that argument is so old.

I don't "need" those books. I read them because I like reading. and most of them I read when I was a little child.

also, It's a bag. which is meant to be used. one might think that it would appreciate in value. but seeing as it is PERISHABLE, It's not exactly a pristine investment.

I can think of a thousand things that would render a birkin bag useless. As opposed to actual gold. which you likened it to.

Yeah it is perishable in your world.

Lolz..
When I said "Celeb" I don't mean people you waste your precious time on watching 24/7, but I meant people who just make u feel relaxed after a big task all through the DAY.

Who cares if she bought the BAG from jupiter? what I only felt was cool was that person that detected her stuffs was FAKE and pointed that out.

She shouldn't have posted it online via whatever platform in the first place!!

And believe me not too many Nigerians have time for constant update of the whole stories on social media, we only just move along while we felt we just want to relax and when its time for the real thing we drop from their moving train.

So don't bug yourself up bro, no smart busy person will keep tracking their activities 24/7 except such person is totally jobless.

You've made real good points and have a good argument. I wouldn't engage her any more, especially right after the "you don't know me".

dominique:
How are we sure that is not a fake Hermes page created to further discredit Linda? For Hermes should have at least given pointers on why they think the bag is fake.

"Our people dem" crew. As usual, once the subject is "our people " it then becomes witch -hunting,jealousy etc.

I would never have though common bags can ever be a subject of debate in any sane society, neither did I know one is different from the other. I just know women like to carry hand bags to store their junks. Even my grandma had tonnes of them in the 80s and all she needed them for was to move some junks she may need from point A to point B. Does this mean the expensive bag in question can store more junk than the others or what makes it worth arguing about?

You are such a misogynist!!

why will you ever say a bag will appreciate in value, so you believe in ten years time that bag will cost more than it is now? , that bag will keep going south, it's not gold neither is it diamond neither is it land or buildings and among those I mentioned only Land and buildings have absolute certainty that will not depreciate.

cescky:



but why will people go this far to discredit another?

omo, people are jobless oo, if the person accusing her channeled this enegy into something else he for done hammer oo
na whaoo

Its all in a bid to clear the doubt. These 'celebrities' have done a lot of lying that the need to be seriously curtailed.

That's not bragging. You people trying to tarnish her image. She was telling everyone doubting her that if she could afford a 500million house, why won't she be able to buy a $14k bag. Abeg free the woman.

godoluwa:
Is she as rich/influential like OBAT? How many times has baba brags about his wealth? akin alabi of n a i r a b e t swims in billions yet he doesnt brag. She has money, fine but bragging is shit. let me ask you how many times Mark that owns facebook has ever shout on social media that he is rich. shes just a human & not super-woman.

I don't understand something... some folks follow their fav celebrities on social media to catch news, updates, and latest gists about them. If one of the so called fans or followers now resolve to attack to disdain the celebrity what do we call him or her?

What do you think it is made of? The same leather as your belt? Why don't you Google the bag abi you dey fight with Google?

Bag is bag whether aba made or Italian made it will still serve the purpose of carrying items. Ben Bruce just bought Aba made shoes and he's proud about it, why are people taking panadol on another person's headache.

one dnt brag of d authenticity of sumtin valuable........... definitely fake

Oga even if it's made from bugatti parts it will depreciate if not for anything it will soon become obsolete as new ones with better spec will come

How can you argue over a bag that ‘some research' claims might be a better investment than a stock market?

that's some researcher, others will say otherwise, you don't know what investment means so if left to you and you have the money, you will go and meet Linda and buy the bag higher than she bought it when you can get new for less? Please I need a reply

Great question

It turns out that I don't know why however:

You pay 2.8 times today what you would have paid for a Birkin seven years ago - and that's just the retail price," says Moizant. "There's a huge market for rare bags, and as soon as brands manage the distribution and restrict production, people will pay more. They want rarity, timeless shapes and heritage brands. I think they also like the emotional element of bags named after icons such as Grace Kelly - the bags become brands in themselves." The most expensive handbag Vestiaire Collective has sold online was a ruby-encrusted crocodile Birkin bag that went for £150,000.

money doesn't buy class. riff-raff wouldn't know the real thing no matter how much money they have because her money is sudden money. If she had grown up with fine things she would know the difference. It's a perfectly normal mistake but it serves her right for bragging, People with pedigree don't brag about their money, those with real wealth don't brag, you don't see children of old money and people who were brought up well, bragging about their material possessions, only people who've just left the ghetto.


I really detest the "see me" crass display of materialism people like Linda stand for, it's classless so it serves her right.

1) You based your opinion on that without knowing why @ words in bold
2) from what I can deduce from that stuff you posted, it means am paying 2.8 times for a new one not paying 2.8 times for a second hand..
3) my dear dont let anyone deceive you with marketing PR there is no man made product that won't depreciate in rear cases though in art and buildings, only natural stuff (gold, gemstones, land etc) have low or no depreciation because it can't be duplicated because new has the same value as old. it doesn't change in component or composition. No man can create that. But BAG p!!! Even Hermes will create another one next year and give you a thousand reason why it's more precious than this one we are all crying about. And may I ask you how many bags created long time ago attracts price higher than its cost if we factor in inflation rate?
