Louis Vuitton Speedy: The Investment That’s Actually Moving Faster Than Stocks

Forget socking cash into the S&P 500, the real winners of 2025 are apparently Louis Vuitton Speedy bags, selling anywhere from $615 to a wowza $12,875 on Fashionphile's booming secondhand market. This resale frenzy is so hot it’s outpacing the primary luxury market by triple speed—no pun intended. Chanel’s Double Flap chain-wallet flex runs from $2,080 to $33,075, making it the flashy cousin of the under-$2,000 Speedy, while HermĆØs’ Evelyne quietly strolls the urban jungle between $1,720 and $5,095, a bargain for a "city bag" that doubles as conceptual capital. Fashionphile SVP Lara Osborn says classics are "money in your closet," or basically wearable ATMs, minus the bank fees but plus tissue paper. Apparently, 41% of owners sell to recoup cash, and a solid 62% are just resale addicts needing funds to feed their next handbag habit. Own a piece of capitalist chic, because apparently bags aren’t just bags—they’re cash, culture, and an investment-grade vibe all wrapped in luxury leather.
