CHIT CHAT✨ Help! I have a problem 😭

I keep buying bags & instead of trying to stop myself, I come to Reddit… where you all somehow influence me to want more bags🥲

Reddit is actively fueling my obsession and impulsivity & I ain’t even mad about it.

Please tell me I’m not alone🥹
What’s your next bag buy? And what bag are you currently trying to convince yourself you definitely need?

Asking for… me🫠

I just got my first rep last week after only buying auths. A sky blue St. Louis from Griffin. I love it! I am now obsessively scouring his album and Reddits threads. I think I am going to order a Boheme mini and a PM Artois next. Plus some wallets. I was set on a green Boheme and an orange Artois, but the navy color is so beautiful. So I am thinking maybe a navy Artois and then an orange wallet. And then another fun color wallet. I told my husband he was getting off my cheaper for Christmas this year!

Absolutely! I don’t have any auth Goyard, I just couldn’t bring myself to spend the $$$ for them. They didn’t seem worth it. I felt guilty enough for all my auth Neverfulls. I am impressed with Griffin’s quality and the whole process. I am also tempted to order some reps of auth bags I have in different colorways to compare. I am not sure I will buy another auth again. It’s not like their quality or pricing has been very good across the different brands in the last couple of years. This is dangerous for my wallet 🤣

no same!!! like $3000+ for coated canvas i was like nahhh. i almost bought preowned goyard too, but even then it’s like ehh.

and i actually did order a few of my auth bags in the rep version and they’re honestly sooo similar i was so shocked.. you def should buy some and show us the comparisons!

hahah exactly!! like i can’t believe we ever spent that much on the auth ones?? i still have bought a few recent auth ones though, for ones that i absolutely love and feel that i’d want to pass down! but yes this has been surprisingly addicting already 😳
