Classic Flap Medium Caviar

Chanel's medium Classic Flap is the archetypal investment handbag, and a decade of steep boutique price increases has pushed pre-owned values up alongside retail, occasionally beyond it for discontinued color and hardware combinations.

Read the product overview

The prices shown are an indicative resale index from authenticated marketplaces rather than a fixed figure; a caviar leather example with intact hologram sticker, authenticity card, and clean hardware sits firmly at the top. Authenticity verification and corner and hardware condition are the dominant value drivers for this iconic bag.

How we assess prices

We use in-stock offers checked within 72 hours. Scores compare the current offer with that retailer’s observations from the last 90 days, requiring at least 14 observed days and a price from about 30 days ago. Suspect records withhold the score. Retailer conditions and prices can change.
