I recently wrote about my great experience consigning at my local lovely shop. My visit there made me wonder about this.

Who can comment on what I shall call "extremely high end" labels?

Like, to me, there is kind of a ceiling on quality. You get what you pay for up to a point yet it's possible to pay a whole lot more for a luxury label. I admit I've never done that, but am wondering about others' experiences: if you splurged on something from Chanel, Gucci, etc., was the quality crazy different from buying a beautifully-made item without the dazzling name?

Not judging, just wondering.
