French Touch reviews
If you're into Primark bags, why bother going to somewhere that carries vintage Chanel and Hermes? It's clearly not your thing or style, but it doesn't make it any less special for people who can appreciate and afford the things in there.
They have a great collection, the Chanel in particular.

Do you know why bags cost £2 in a Primark store? Ever looked into who makes it and under what conditions? Did you see the Channel 4 documentary?
As for Chanel and other designers, half the time they use the same factories as the high street retailers (I know, as I have worked for both). There may be more design input and quality control from a designer's side but you are ultimately paying for the name and the lifestyle that the brand has sold you.
Vintage is best, as it was made a long time ago and isn't contributing to current global issues such as unfair trade and environmental issues. It cuts down on the unnecessary waste of over-production currently happening. This store is fab!!

Sorry but do you not know anything about these bags! People pay £1000s for Chanel - £120 seems damn cheap to me.

Is £120 cheap to these people?! You could buy about 120 bags in Primark or on eBay for that price!
