Before we get into the actual topic, tell me what's happening with handbags because you've got a flashback.

I think it's a classic.

It's not, you know, it's a unique shape and style, but it's never really gone anywhere.

Oh, did you ever have one?

No, I didn't.

But now I was going to say, because I'm a big thrifter and secondhand, you can get one of these in decent shape from that era.

Yeah.

That's what I think.

Because a new bag, if you're going full designer these days, isn't just $2,000.

Some of them are $6,000 or $7,000 or $8,000.

Yeah, and you're not spending as much money.

And as someone who's very clumsy and tries to take good care of their things but they don't, if, you know, in the past I bought a really fancy nice bag, new, it's literally like carrying around a newborn.

And when you get that first little scuff or scratch, you're devastated.

Now this you're paying, you know, maybe 10% and it's already got its little character and its quirks which often make bags nicer and you don't have to worry so much.

think so too you can I absolutely trash my handbags yeah I'm so good for like a month and then I think you know I can't always ask for a chair for my bag yeah it's actually a table for three exactly yeah and I mean I think that's the whole point right you know you buy things to wear them and love them but you know someone else has loved it they've moved it on and it's in decent shape or bag spas can do phenomenal things

I bought, I love how we haven't even started yet.

I bought a suede La Wove puzzle bag in a back of this weird thrift shop in Paris.

And I said, is this authentic?

And he said, yeah, yeah, here's the thing, but you know, very dirty.

I think it was 130 euro.
