FOR SALE – $20,000

That’s right folks, this bag is only $20,000 dollars. Though the decision of purchasing a Coach handbag over a fuel efficient Toyota Camry may be a tough one, I would truly expect one to choose the latter. I mean, who really needs a car that seats five? By the way, to our newer viewers, I usually have biased sarcastic opinions. However seriously speaking though, what makes this Coach handbag so expensive?
So, what makes this handbag a hole in one’s wallet? Well first off, this handbag is made out of alligator leather—one of the rarest leathers on the market. If we were not dozing off in our high school Economic class, we should have a recollection of one of the principles of supply and demand (rare commodity + demand for the commodity = increase in cost for the commodity). Besides the fact that alligator leather is rare, alligator leather is also extremely difficult to cut and prepare. Since alligator skin cannot be stretched like calf hide, it must therefore be trimmed and cut only by skilled and trained experts (this way not to waste the precious alligator hide). Anyhow, let’s talk more about the styling of the bag.
To be honest, I truly dislike the totality of this Coach satchel. As a matter of fact, I would not even consider buying the bag for even half the price. Call me distasteful, for I feel that this bag does NOT make a statement or even portray itself as an expensive bag. I guess this bag is meant for the true alligator enthusiasts.
