Yesterday, reporters get the news from the LV, they have not released any news on the cost price, Gucci leather with canvas material and relative prices than unfair.
LV: We have never been released in this respect any information, because it may not be true, and he vertical comparison is wrong. His canvas and leather than the comparison, leather and canvas can not be compared, the canvas is a canvas, leather is leather.

For this concept, Chinese consumers seem to have accepted, but take it or leave is another matter.
Consumer 1: occasionally buy, but buy very little, is that there is a friend around, their power will have to buy it. Is to give you a psychological satisfaction than others.
Consumer 2: I think that some package is a canvas in particular, the results of the price of selling into the leather, I do not pursue this kind of thing
Consumer 3: No, because too expensive, I can not afford. Maybe someday to buy it and you think it was worth it value, you like it value.
