7. Chanel “Diamond Forever” Handbag—$261,000
Only 13 of these bags were ever made and released back in 2007. The jewel-encrusted Chanel logos stand out on white alligator skin where you will find 334 diamonds that weigh 3.56 carats set in 18-karat white gold. The 18-karat gold chain can be detached. “Scarcity is also driving desire for these totes. Something that is hard to obtain or impossible to find will be more valuable,” says Meaghan Mahoney, editor of the daily news and handbag review online site purseblog.com. “A handbag [such as] the Chanel Diamond Forever bag is more of a collector’s item than something you use on a daily basis,” she says. “Like an exquisite car or a rare painting, it’s the limited availability and high demand that make this handbag more valuable.”
