You have rich knowledge of CC, unlike other YT influencers, it seems like luxury bags for the only purpose of "unboxing". CC should name you as their Ambassador.
Yes Dacob! I can trace each bag purchase to an exact birthday year, exact holiday or exact celebration & it is Extremely memorable You are so spot on Dacob!
Love that you speak to the emotional tributes and getting us to think about the WHY do we consume or purchase as well (love when you talk about giving the purchase a a milestone market makers it even more special) as giving really great tips. Thank you! Amazing content!
I agree full heartedly with you analysis of both buying and why to buy these so very special bags! Ompalumpas have driven up the price for people like me who only wanted one 255 for a special birthday and now I may not be able to afford it
5:58, I agree!!!! In 2011 I got my 2.55 224 reissue… it was a graduation present for finding my RN. In 2013, I got my medium beigeclair classic flap from my husband as a gift. I got my jumbo 2022 but because prices are going up lol. But I’m very attached to the sentiment of the bag
Dacob, yours are the only videos I can watch without getting mad at the person talking about fashion, and I think it's because you not only have the knowledge, but because you've experienced it: you know what Chanel caviar leather or lambskin feel like, the differences between cotton and linen or Mr. Balenciaga's first name. These are the videos real fashionistas wanna watch to become style-savvy, and obviously be culturally above the nouveau riche crowds
The right time for me to buy is when I feel like I deserve it. I bought my first classic flap on the first week of October. It is beautiful and looks close to your small black classic double flap.
You know? I have 2 classic flaps, both bought without knowing it at exactly the best times for quality that you mention in this video, and I’ve always been very confused about people complaining about Chanel quality issues! Haha! Thanks for a great vid!
That’s why I love your channel - you don’t just talk & talk & talk ... you also analyse and give information that really ‘makes sense’♥️♥️♥️...much love from Manila
Interesting observations. May I add that it is a bad idea to go into the boutiques during their tourist seasons (not when they are on vacation but when great numbers of vacationers visit those cities). They know that people like to buy on vacation, are not all too discerning, and will not travel back to return an item. So this is when the merchandise of lesser quality is on display.
this video really spoke to me! I love the idea of just appreciating one classic. Next season Chanel are releasing many iridescent and pastel bags that I have extreme fomo for.. I have one mini 2.55 in green i always wanted a medium size in black but always get distracted by the eyecatching and colourful bags.
Great Video.. i have only 01 Chanel Vintage bag dated 1986 ....and the quality was Fabulous. .loved it lots... i have gained lots of knowledge from you ..Thank you for taking time and sharing your invaluable knowledge.
Amazing video! I always feel like It’s so much to keep buying same bag in every colour new every month. Your love and passion for Coco is amazing💗 Keep being wonderful xo
New subbie here. I got my 2.55 second hand in very good condition. The cc was brand new when I got. Both got them as celebration for having new baby lol
That's a beautiful tip about getting one on a special occasion! I see some luxury youtubers and I think: do they love their things or is it just conspicuous consumption?
💖👑👑💖xx i love your classic double flap 255 .this one you have is priceless beçause you own ìt. I dont own a Chanel but if i do buy onè this is the one i would go for. I love that it doesn't scream desigher bag if you know you know and i love that. I have learnt so much about chanel since watching you and i did nt know this bag was made until i saw yours its so beautiful. 💖😊💖👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏xxxx
absolutely loving your videos! So so so knowledgable, you are an actual expert at this point! I have a query though... just bought a classic flap from the boutique.. this month, is there a reason why the date code on the authenticity card / sticker would imply that it was a 2019 manufacture? I thought they would be making and selling a lot more?! Like that wouldn’t have been sat waiting to be sold for 2 years? Return maybe? I don’t know! Thank youuuu. Xxx
Thank you Jenn They do sell bags for longer periods of time and some can be a return (but returns need to be done within a short time frame. Sometimes certain bags end up in the stock room because of the fast turn of collections (each one to two months) and so some bags get left in the stock room until there is demand for them again on the sales floor. xoxo
Hello Dacob! I am a new subscriber here. I love your brutal honesty, I am the same. 😊 You made a good point in this video. I don't have any luxury bags. Being a single mom it never was my priority and I never thought that I am missing something. For me any thing you have has a value how much you put value in it. If you think like that even money is just a piece of paper...In that case you appreciate people in your life more than things.
Another GENIUS 💡💡💡💡💡👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 video of yours Dear Super 👍🏼 Dacob! Totally 💯 agree about the fact that blind & dumb overconsumption of Chanel goodies in general by spending most of the time, somebody’s else fortune 🔮😉😉😉😉😉, brings definitely to ruining the joy 🤩 brought by ‘that particular moment’ and to steep price increases! Excellent 👌🏻 analysis and thanks 🙏🏻 for sharing it with all of us🥰🥰🥰🥰🍀🍀🍀🍀👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I really want my 1st chanel bag, and I have the money saved up for it but it is such a steep price even though i found a brand new coco handle for a very good deal. It's still an insane amount of money for a bag. My husband does not see & want me to buy it so that's what's holding me back. I keep explaining they just go up but because i bought a ysl bag already this year, he's not for it.
Hi Dixie, this is the classic size. It is not a small. Some might call it the small (it is what used to be called the 225 size). There used to be a size small as well but is no longer in production. Right now there are officially three 2.55 double flap sizes offered: the classic size (which you see in this video), the large size (used to be 226, and you can see it in my other videos) and the Maxi (used to be called the 228). There were more 2.55 double flap bag sizes in the past but we are limited to these three at the moment. xoxo
This is really interesting. I’m going up to London the first day of April (there’s just been a price increase) and I’m thinking about purchasing a Boy bag (my first and probably only Chanel bag). I’ve loved it ever since it was introduced in 2011 when I was 18 and I’m still in love with it now. I wanted it for my 30th but with all the price increases it’s giving me the urgency to get it this year. I was going to contact Chanel on their website to ask if they have it in stock, does anyone know when the best time to do that is? I was thinking a week to a couple of days before I go?
@@SuperDacob I really enjoy watching your videos, so very informative. I’ve been on the wait list for a classic medium or large in black for the last two years and so far the four I’ve seen had quality issues. I’ll be a little more persistent starting next month, maybe I’ll get lucky and get one that’s made in France 🤗
Sadly I’m seeing more and more people with classic flaps in restaurants, shopping mall, and grocery stores now. It seems like the price increase only attracts more buyers. I wonder if Chanel is doing anything to discourage SAs to sell classics flaps and encourage them to sell more seasonal pieces. Any insights on the commission structure for different products?
Omf bless your soul for making this video hahaha.. I feel like the general population feels the same - I'm saying that because I imaging only 5 or 10% of people can actually manage to buy bags at that level of frequency. I'm 26 and only started my collection this year because I finally am financially stable enough to. It's insane in the matter of months within luxury resale groups seeing just the select 2-3 people who constantly obtains 5-10 bags from a new Chanel collection the day it's release then immediately resells in the groups for 500-1000$ above RRP. It makes it really sad for people like me haha I'm just trying to have a 5-7 bag collection to have for the years to come but it would take me 6 months to save up for a Chanel!
First hand experience with poor quality on my mini 2.55 from 2 weeks ago. Damage on turn lock and sticker worn. Purchased at 31 Rue Cambon. Currently at US boutique waiting for them to locate another one or send for repairs.
Hey D, let me tell you I have the jumbo like the one you first hold identical from 1994, and is the only one I need😂every body love and ask were I got it?Yes Specially that is have to be special, CHANEL had so much love for Her bags, that you really need to have Respect and love for it,but that is only my opinion,💕
IMHO, I make history and special moments with my bags. The right time for me is when I see a color/combo and style I love and feel will be a good addition to my collection, if it’s during a special event or moment in my life, even better. I think the ones that ruined it for everyone, are those reseller/influencers girls that post the “ it “bag, then turn around and sell it for a profit, SAs working w/resellers etc. As per my spending, it is not about me me me, it’s about the the season/color combo I want and will enjoy for a long time nothing else
Yes! Ppl buying and disposing of the luxury (specially “hot” items) are ruining it for everyone else. Prices increase, lower quality, shark resellers, mean SAs
It's the brand's fault for selling too many and letting the quality go downhill. The manufacturing side is their side and it wouldn't be so overexposed were it not for the cash grabbing. I hear influencers use a bored tone and roll their eyes when holding up certain bags and it's like yeah you're clearly not into this. It's like where's the passion? And they always say 'good quality' based on the brand when it varies WITHIN each brand, they fall for hype. Too many hypebeasts like trainers.
Definitely too many influencers out there... but it does feel like the time of the influencers is coming to an end. Its an era that is fading into something different and perhaps even more obscure and frightening... but only time will tell... won't it ;)
Correct. Just whatever is left of our body... until that decomposes too or gets dispersed (in case one gets cremated)... ashes to ashes... dust to dust... it really is that simple and complete, isn't it...
Kathy, you have already said this on a previous video; you seem really muddled hon? Your sloppy critique is not welcome, just be on your way; I imagine it’s time consuming keep creating these fake profiles. 👋🏻
Sadly I’m seeing more and more people with classic flaps in restaurants, shopping mall, and grocery stores now. It seems like the price increase only attracts more buyers, it is about to flood the market. I wonder if Chanel is doing anything to discourage SAs to sell classics flaps and encourage them to sell more seasonal pieces. Any insights on the commission structure for different products?
To me the best time is always yesterday 😂my only regret is not starting my collection sooner
That is a perfect point Kenita! Here here!

Thanks KitL333! I love my CHANEL but I also criticize it when I feel it does its own heritage dirty or when it does us consumers dirty ;)
Yes Dacob! I can trace each bag purchase to an exact birthday year, exact holiday or exact celebration & it is Extremely memorable You are so spot on Dacob!

But you can only blame this throw-away society and the new social media creating the Fomo. 😎

Thank you. Now I know my next treat of a Chanel 255 will be for my 70th birthday! Hope quality is good in February.
Wishing you a fun and happy time at chanel while you shop for your future bag Andrea
@@SuperDacob I actually just purchased a Loewe small puzzle bag that I am in love with.
good thing my birthday is in October. completely agree about buying items when there's a special occasion, it's the ultimate cherry on top for me
Wow. The point on fulfillment. Preach!! (Inserts applause).
🙏🏻😘🌅
In my experiencia the best time is January and February… best time to buy in Chanel especially in France

Totaly agree, you got the enjoy the things you already have and cherish them, you do not buy happiness by buying to many bags
This video was awesome! I totally agreed with all the points you made - seriously couldn’t agree more! Thank you, Dacob! ✨🖤

Thank you for subscribing to my channel Daiva I agree with you. Its always a personal and intimate moment when we transfer value into any object.
Could you maybe do the same video on the Chanel perfumes? I am in the middle of the video so maybe you have already addressed it.
The reason to get it is personal for each person. There’s no should or shouldn’t based on others’ opinions.
I just want to say I love this channel so much. Class is in session 💗

Another great video Dacob darling! Saving for a 2.55 instead of the classic flap now. Is yours the 225 size?
Thank you LizzyS! I own the 225 (GHW) and the 226 (RHW) and I love both of them so much. The one you see in this video is the 225 (GHW).

You mentioned seasonal bags that didn’t have a chance to become classics due to overconsumption. Which bags do you think sufferer from this?
Is that a small 255 that you have? I like that size.

Its looked at as status when you can afford to buy one in every color or from every season
