Chanel In the Business: the most-talked-about flap bag from Chanel

Chanel in the business flap bag, but people call it simply 'ITB'

The bags are made from calfskin and the size is about the same as Maxi.
Currently this style is almost sold out in every Chanel store around the world. Some pros and cons. Pros are mostly because of its 'friendly' price for a Chanel flap bag (to illustrate: Maxi now costs USD4,000). And cons because it is simply not the Chanel classic line (yet).

I am currently on the fence to get this bag. The price is indeed tempted but, I planned to get the classic line only. Sigh.....
So, the question is "to ITB or not to ITB?"

Prices for calfskin ones are EUR1750 or USD2225

  1. I bought my wife this two weeks ago in Nordstrom San Diego, i last one left in light beige. My wife saw it and felt in love with it right away! (style and color). It was for our 4th wed anniversay, so she had it. We both actually like this style as it is different from others (flap bags). The quilted pads sizing are smaller on the flap and larger on the bag itself, and the lock is not on the tap just like in 2.55, this really makes it a stand-alone style. By the way, not too many pictures are available on the web and you have many. As of March 2012, this bag is priced at $2650; and again, there are no more coming we were told, and there's a long wait list.
