Well I think another smaller factor when it comes to prices is the fact that many women 55+( Im not talking about the really stylish one's)buy that reallly nice LV bag just to have an expensive purse, If I had a dime for every time I saw an older woman carry an LV or Gucci bag while wearing sweats I be rich enough to get a Birkin of my own
. But I DONt think there's anything wrong with that, I just think it might also be the that companies know this and want to get more money a bag since they know peole will come to buy them.
