I was having lunch in the office pantry when somebody posted the LV Aerogram City Keepall - the bag that I have targeted to buy since last year but I was cash strapped and wasn't in a hurry to buy a bag. It was the lowest price that I've seen on carousell. The previous lowest price in March was $2.6k, I thought about it for a night and somebody else offered for it within 24 hours. After 1 min of hesitation, I immediately offered for it and arranged for collection the next day.
I went down to Hillview MRT which is near the seller's place and she turned out to be a very nice elderly lady. I had quite a nice chat with her, she said she always bought bags on impulse and find this bag too heavy for her use so she's selling it after using for less than 5 times. I told her that I loved the aerogram collection and I aim to get items from the collection. She even included the box, the dustbag and the receipt and I was quite surprised it was quite new. I paid her, went back, cleaned and conditioned the bag, modelled for a while and placed it back in the box.
No regrets. Even if I'm tired of the bag I can still sell it for a profit - the demand is there.
My second Louis Vuitton Aerogram item and my most expensive bag till date. Time to bring it to work and travel.
