If you've ever considered owning a Chanel Classic Flap, here’s your sign that it's more than just a fashion statement — it’s a smart investment.
Over the past five years, this timeless icon has shown a remarkable price increase, making it one of the most sought-after and value-holding luxury bags in the world.
📈 The Price Journey: 2020 to 2025
Let’s take a closer look at how the Chanel Classic Flap Medium has grown in value in the Malaysian market:
Year | Price (RM) | Price Increase | Percentage Growth |
2020 | RM28,620 | – | – |
2021 | RM31,500 | +RM2,880 | +10.1% |
2023 | RM44,870 | +RM13,370 | +42.4% (from 2021) |
2024 | RM51,000 | +RM6,130 | +13.7% |
2025 | RM53,150 | +RM2,150 | +4.2% |
💡 Total Price Increase (2020–2025): RM24,530
📊 Percentage Growth Over 5 Years: +85.7%
Why Are Chanel Prices Rising?
There are a few key reasons why Chanel continues to increase its prices:
Brand Positioning: Chanel is reinforcing its exclusivity by aligning its pricing with that of Hermès.
Limited Supply, High Demand: The Classic Flap is not only iconic but also released in limited quantities.
Global Pricing Strategy: Chanel frequently adjusts its prices globally to maintain consistency and exclusivity.
Luxury as Investment: As more people see luxury items as alternative investments, demand continues to rise.
Is It Worth Buying Now?
If you're looking to buy a brand-new Chanel Classic Flap directly from the boutique, it may not feel as worth it right now — simply because the price has increased significantly over the years.
💡 But here's the smarter option:Consider buying a pre-owned piece in good condition. Not only can you enjoy the beauty and prestige of the bag at a better price, but when Chanel increases their prices again in the future (and they will), you have the potential to resell it at a higher value.
It’s a win-win — you carry it, love it, and still enjoy its investment value later.
