You might resent paying 5p for a carrier bag in your local supermarket but the biggest designers want you to fork out 174 times that price for one.

你可能会不愿意花5便士在当地超市买一个购物袋，但顶级设计师们却要你为此支付174倍的价钱。
Fashion houses such as Balenciaga are selling designer handbags – that look identical to the bags they package their goods in – for eye-watering prices.

The Balenciaga Shopping Bag, a simple white calfskin bag with black handles emblazoned with the fashion house’s name, is retailing1 for an extortionate £870.

And while that seems a laughable amount for the average shopper, it seems that it’s coveted2 among fashion fans – because it’s already sold out.
