QuoteTwo of the most valuable are the Birkin - named after actress Jane Birkin - or the Kelly, as carried by Grace Kelly in one of her classic films.
These are normally worth up to £6,000 each, but one exotic Birkin in pink crocodile skin is currently for sale on a French website for £167,000.
Admittedly it uses pink sapphires to fasten it, and white gold for the lock.
"There are certainly pieces that make sense at that level," says Matthew Rubinger, the head of handbags for Europe, the Middle East and Africa, at Christies in Hong Kong.
"What's really interesting is that we are just starting to see these trends, as people move up from being casual buyers to collectors."
Last year Christies sold a pink Birkin with diamonds in it for £168,000, and three months ago they sold another (pictured above) for £227,000 - a world record price.

I immediately peg women who own Birkin bags as assholes.
Why do you use bing? I can't imagine anyone even somewhat computer literate using bing.
Are Birkins still in? They don't seem interesting enough to be a classic.
I would use Bing if the responses were read out in Matthew Perry's voice.
I used to use Bing when every two searches gave you a "Reward Point", and 500 points let you use 500gb of OneDrive for free for a year.

I have my reasons for not using Google. :ph34r:
That is perfectly fine. I'm sure there are lots of good reasons to not use Google. It's the using of Bing instead that baffles me. There is probably a few good alternatives to Google, Bing is not one of them.
