Probably $1000. I've got my eye on basically my ideal bag that is a little over that. Hopefully it will go on sale.
At the moment, I have maxed at $400.
I personally find a big enough difference between let's say bags under $200 (MSRP) vs ones over $200. I haven't established where the breaking point is for bags under $500 and over $1000, where the improvements in quality aren't worth it.
I have a list for my bag wardrobe, and I am missing 1 right now. Then I'll be done with bags.
The way I see it, your purse gets a lot of use. I switch, and have about 6 in regular rotation, average price $300. Most of them are a few years old. So the current cost per wear is about $1.65. And decreasing. I only splurge for everyday or work bags Evening bags I keep those cheap, since the get less use. I plan to keep these bags for another 5-10+ years!
Before I started "splurging" bags would only last a year if I was lucky.

1000 bucks for a handbag
Good lord, I'm shocked that women would pay this kind of money for a handbag....
$50, max. I don't think any one of my bags cost more than $20 and I get compliments all the time.
Even if I could fit more into my budget, I see expensive bags as a waste and honestly, most designer bags aren't that attractive to me. I'd rather have a bunch of quirky, fun, cheaper bags that I can change on a whim then buy an expensive bag that won't necessarily jive with my fashion sense/color scheme in a few years.
I keep my bags fairly simple, as my clothing tends to be more colorful/patterned, so I use bags as a neutral basic. My bag style hasn't changed much over the years. As a kid I liked bags that were structured/ladylike and I still do now. The only thing that has changed is that I really like crossbody straps.
