And for the record, yes I understand a case at this price is a bit much, but most will never understand fashion prices. Not for you to understand anyway.
+1 A logo does not STYLE make. If you want to be obsessed with Vuitton, that's your prerogative. I don't have a problem with the price per se. Spending money on a luxury good is each person's decision, but don't make it about taste level or style, because an overdone (and ubiquitous) logo monogram is not what's catching people's eyes walking down the runway. I lived in Tokyo for a while, and LV logo crap is like a uniform there. If you don't have one, you're *gasp* "poor." And, really, all this case is is an ostentatious showing of money. I prefer my pieces to be unique, interesting looking, and to not scream "I spend my money on things that make me look rich." There are plenty of LV bags that fit all of those requirements, but this case is not one of them. I'm going with a $40 leather slip case until I find something that DOES have style, quality craftsmanship, and fulfills my protective and functional needs.
