Ms Luo, in Zhengzhou, brought in a Chanel 22 Mini in black calf. The wear on the body was very light, the original chain and purchase receipt were both still with it, the box was not. Two things were on her mind: whether an incomplete set of accessories would drag the offer down, and whether black really is steadier than other colours.

The figure on this page is what this particular transaction settled at. It reflects the house, the model, the condition, how complete the accessories were and the market at the time, and is not a quoted price for a comparable piece.
The client
The model and the market
The 22 line launched in 2022 in soft oil-waxed calf, closing with a drawstring, with metal "CHANEL Paris" lettering and an openwork double-C coin on the front. Within the line, the Mini holds value best. Black is a base neutral with the widest pool of buyers; between two of the same reference in different colours, the offers can land in the same band or sit more than ten percentage points apart.
What a bag is worth depends on how it is broken down. Model and house draw the range first, condition and how complete the accessories are are each costed, and the market at the time fixes the landing point; differences within one reference come from size, leather, body colour and hardware pairing.
How this price was set
Ms Luo’s bag came in at CNY 19,000, resting on two things: the Mini is where demand concentrates in the 22 line, and black has the widest pool of buyers. This one graded A, with the body and drawstring in good order. The mark down was on accessories — the original chain and receipt were both there and only the box was missing, so the deduction is small.
The price came out of bidding. After inspection the bag entered the platform, trade buyers across the country bid side by side, and the client picked one from the offer sheet. The 22 also runs through handbag buy-back, and the retail ticket and the pre-owned figure are not the same thing. (Market figures reflect publicly available data.)
