^same lang always price ng caviar and lambskin, they're just two different kinds of leather. Mas maalaga lang ang lambskin compared to caviar. I have the lambskin.

^sorry sa mixed up with my last post, lamb leather is always pricey than caviar by a few thousands din.. i have both in one style (2.55) pero different color and di sila parehas ng price, they vary kung caviar or lamb leather, i am not sure if nagvavary din sa color.. when i bought din my jumbo double flap, magkaiba ng price ang both leather.. i don't know bakit mas mahal ang lamb leather pero mas durable naman ang caviar.. checked my receipt HK$39,600 as per nov 2011, so yung price increase nila ngayon reasonable considering their price increase from time to time.. grabe noh?

^When I bought mine way back 2010, I wanted to get the caviar because less maintenance plus I had the impression that lambskin was more expensive tapos high maintenance pa pero mas formal nga lang yung dating nya. But the SA said same price lang sila. I think mas mahal si lambskin before but since mas popular si caviar they made it the same price na lang.

Please correct me if I'm wrong but the price for both leathers (same size and color) are just the same. I'm talking about the flap ha. I checked with Purseforum and the prices listed for the flaps of the same size and color are just the same.

^lamb was more expensive than caviar but i think chanel already made the prices the same some time ago, i think late 2010? both lamb and caviar flaps will have the same price

Waaahhh!!!! I so wanted to have a chanel! Sa france pinakamura no? Hay kelan kaya.....

^Sis,i have Chanel GST before, hindi kami nagkasundo kasi dala ko lahat pati kusina. Pero kung konti ka lang magdala, carry na. Yah, it's kinda heavy,dahil na rin siguro sa chains/hardware.
Saka talagang bothered ako dun sa hati sa middle. yun yung nakakasikip. Although newer versions, mas maluwag na.
It tend to deform in the long run kaya wag talaga masyado heavy ang gamit. and corners tend to crumple/crinkle. kaya medyo need ng TLC kung OC ka sa bag.

The straps also tends to slip sa shoulder. medyo obvious na hindi kami nagkasundo ni GST. ha!ha!

[cheskacutie]

^ Interesting ang comment mo about the GST sis k_heart! Thanks!:)

[prettynvain]

^^agree with you sis. ako din sobrang buong bahay ata dala ko. hehe. kaya yung jumbo flap di ako makuntento sa kanya.. kasi pag may di ako nadala, di ako mapakali. hehe. pero di pa nag-crumple sa akin kasi i don't use it too much nga dahil sa dami ng dala ko. and yes takaw-space yung middle partition kaya yung mga gamit ko na naka-separate into pouches eh tinatanggal ko pag GST gamit ko. which is too matrabaho for me. pero no problem with the straps naman. i have a friend ginawang beach bag ang GST! kaloka lang!

[k_heart]

^ha!ha!ha! Nakakalowka,ang bongga ng friend mo sis! : )

[prettynvain]

^korek sis.. pero knowing her di na nakakagulat. and that's the only chanel she has! you know what i mean sis..

[ms. honey]
