Longchamp bag

The missus wants one and I'd like to get one for her birthday next year.

Does anyone know where I can look to get a good price on these bags? I was thinking duty free might be better than DJs or Myer.

    Wife noticed them on sale in Sydney Airport airside heinmann dutyfree in July,
    I told her we would find them cheaper in Asia and Europe, we didn’t, came back and realised they don’t sell them on arrival.
    I’m still hearing about it.

    • Haha love it. I'm in Manila at the moment so will price check here.

    They're sold at COSTCO too, I think.

      Yeah I can confirm that I've seen them at Costco as well. David Jones have them too but personally I think they're totally overpriced and beware that the corners get scuffed very easily.

      • Agreed but sometimes it's worth the smile when the present is opened.

    You won't find them at Myer; DJs is the only department store that sells them and being a Canberran, I don't think they sell them at Civic so you'll have to go to Sydney or Melbourne to buy one.

      Cheers. I'm in Sydney often enough so will wait for a DJ sale.

      • The only ones that go on sale are the seasonal colours. Your navys and blacks won't go on sale unless you happen to have a DJs card and purchase during Four Days of Fashion or something similar.

        I presume you're referring to the foldable Le Pliage ones?

          Yeah that seems to be the g.! Learning a lot right now.

    pending fx rates… it is usually cheaper overseas
    just get her the smaller one for now, as it won't be too exxy

    • They have sizes?! What is the most common size to get?

      • The large tote with the long handles

          I just asked her and she sais the one with long handles!

          I'll get the navy one as that seems to be the most common.

          Cheers mate

        • @cymon: Yeah you can't go wrong with navy or black. Navy is very common; I was using mine the other day and the lady who sat next to me on the train had the exact same bag as mine 😂

          You can also get Gunmetal for something a bit different to navy or black. This one here (https://www.huntleather.com.au/le-pliage-tote-bag-l1899089.h…) is big enough for A4 files

      • the most common would be the medium le pliage model. now the fun bit would be what colour

        just don't get the limited editions / leather models and you'll save yourself a bit of $$ =D
        you won't hit the TRS value for the 1 item itself, so as long as she's happy… =)

        • I think you're on the money, Navy is the go. Def won't hit TRS but plenty of other times to do that!

  • I have the impression the popular style never goes on sale?

    I did get lucky a couple of years back at DJ when they have an older stock on sale with further discount. It looks exactly the same as the current model but had a different barcode.

  • Catch has them for $169 if you have OnePass (free delivery or express is $3 extra) or $199 if you don’t . OnePass is $4 a month or Free Trial also available for new members. Looks authenticated.
