To be sure. The bag was made with the famous brand. Specifically designed, made with special materials, and made with a limited number. That's all, which makes the bag to be expensive. Typically, became a pride, for people who can buy branded bags. Are you interested to buy? For your mother, or your lover.

It is no secret, if this bag is expensive. Expensive bags usually use special materials, and made with a limited number. This bag shows, the owner of this bag is a rich man. Because, only the rich who can afford to buy this bag. You are interested to buy this bag?

i believe that the bags were so expensive because the bag is made from natural materials, they are not synthetic bags made from man made materials, plus the fact that the bags they make are not "mass" produced. other than that, i know nothing about it hehe

and maybe since it came from a well-known people, they try to experimentally sold for a high price if there is someone will buy it, that the plan really worked.
plus the people cooperated to buy it in so that the spectators saw that if a person have a bag like that, those spectators will initially doubt you as a wealthy person.
It is just like carrying a Samsung Galaxy tab 7.0 compare to CDR-King tab 7.0, meaning, judging the book by it's cover.

I also am wondering about this but logical explanation is that the material used is indeed genuine, genuine leather and not synthetic. But the thing is, i believe it really costs too much at times, i've heard that one bag often times costs more than a million pesos..and sometimes a lot more. it is mind boggling that one bag costs that much. I could do a lot more with that one million.

Hermes, coach, LV, Prada and many other branded bags are expensive because of the way they are made as well as quality of it. Most of such bags are hand sewn instead of relying on machines to do the sewing. Some of them are even specially made to order which makes it cost even more. Of course, materials used do add on to the price of the human labor cost in making those bags. WHile it's a branded bag, it has to be expensive too.

In addition to youless and toppfer's responses, her,mes bag is expensive because it is simply Hermes.
Hermes is designer brand that caters to women apparel and accessories. Like what other told you, Hermes uses the highest grade of materials and superior workmanship. In addition., you are paying for the Hermes brand. a Hermes bag can only be produced in small quantity, sometimes by custom design. The more unique the bag is, the more expensive it is.

A Hermes bag can costs in the range of thousand of dollars per piece. Price is dependent on materials, workmanship, demand and design and style. Some people think that it is absurd to pay or bu a single bag with that price but people (mostly women) buy it for self-satisfaction and incur the jealousy of others who doesn't posses one It is often bought because it is a very durable and classic bag in addition that one can show-off it to friends and other people.

First, Hermes is a very high class brand. And as you know, the famous brand stuff always cost crazy money. Second, they claim that they use the geniue leather and the bags are man-made. Third, their stores are decorated so well and everything is excellent. So it costs a big budget. Perhaps this is why Hermes bags are so exepensive. Sometimes the expensive stuff can sell well than the cheap things. Since some people need it to show off.
I love China

A luxurious product would not be luxurious if it was not expensive. I know a small factory making, not bags, but slippers for Hermes : the production is very small, handmade -- they have dedicated particular sewing machines -- with a special leather. When you buy a product from Hermes, you pay also for an original design, for the marketing and for the sponsoring made by this brand. Quite all the production is still made in France, where salaries are high. All in one, the price is probably justified.

Because only few people can afford to buy the bag and the bag brand is very limited. People buy for the reason of prestige rather use it.

Hermes bag is for those can afford people. Celebrity and social people and others used this brand to tag them well-off... high-class... and sort of making an attitude!
I've nothing against them... but I can't help myself think, what's in their mind to go for that bag. It can priced a brand new car. Well, I prefer to buy a new car than that bag *LOL... and I'd rather help those less fortunate than to buy a Hermes bag... and I don't want to buy that branded bag or anything related because I've no money to buy one *LOL

It was said that many hermes bags are made from alligator skins. And for one to be able to have alligator skins, they must capture an alligator and we know that catching an alligator is very risky. Thus, it becomes so expensive when it's made into a bag already.
