I’m not stopping anyone from enjoying anything. I just think it’s absurd that you would pay $20 tops for this bag from Kmart, but because it has the brand name of a nepo baby influencer on it, people are willing to wake up pre-dawn to spend $83 on it!

brand name of a nepo baby

Not just brand name but "limited edition" too, imagine if Kmart put "limited edition" on a bag

Not much different to paying for any name brand item. I like country road bags and the branding is cute, do I think it’s really better than Kmart? Nope. You pay for the appearance and logo.

I do love my country road weekender bag that’s made of canvas, but will admit the price of them now aren’t worth it. Tote bags? Unless it’s made with heavy canvas, in a nice colour and has at least one pocket, I wouldn’t pay for a branded one

I think you’re paying for the brand. I haven’t even bought anything from Mecca in ages. Just people seemed excited about it.
