That's Really Costly!

A Balenciaga City handbag would easily cost between 75,000 to 100,000 PhP depending on the model if you buy it from the store in Greenbelt. I remember getting one for my friend in Paris last April for 60,000 PhP only. If you ask me, that's considered as a really good price for a Balenciaga bag. You can never get one for that price anywhere in Asia unless it's on sale.

Last week, this actor was looking for a Balenciaga City handbag to give as an anniversary gift to his girlfriend. He was so shocked when he found out about the real cost of the bag that his girlfriend wanted. He didn't expect that a handbag could cost him that much money.

When he got to speak to this certain seller, he told her that his budget for the bag was only 50,000 PhP. He went on insisting that she helps him find one that is within his budget. The seller was so puzzled and didn't know what to tell him so she politely suggested that he considers buying his girlfriend a Balenciaga wallet instead. The seller never heard from the actor again since then.

Do you know who this thoughtful actor is? I guess it is not his fault that he is not exposed to designer handbags. Now that he knows the price of a Balenciaga bag, he has a few more months to save up so that he can buy one for his girlfriend this coming Christmas.
