Gayunman, may mga netizen na hindi na-impress dahil hindi raw kinokonsiderang mamahalin ang naturang bag.

Ang double handle tote bag ay nagkakahalagang humigit-kumulang $80 base sa website ng Charles & Keith.

Sa panibagong video, sinagot ni Zoe ang ngayo'y deleted comment ng netizen na nagsabing, "who's gonna tell her?"

"Money is the topic [that] makes me most uncomfortable to talk about. And that is because growing up I did not have a lot. My family didn’t have a lot," saad ng 17-anyos na TikTok content creator.

"We couldn’t buy new things as simple as bread from BreadTalk… that kind of thing was such a luxury to us when we first moved to Singapore. Every time we passed by a store my parents would just say next time but next time we'd never come. 

"Your comment spoke volumes on how ignorant you seem because of your wealth to you an $80 bag may not be a luxury [but] for me and my family it is a lot. 

"And I'm so grateful that my dad was able to get me one. He worked so hard for that money. I can't believe I got hate over a bag that I was so excited to have," paglalahad pa niya. 

Sa ulat ng Singaporean news na The Strait Times, ibinahagi ni Zoe na nag-migrate sa Singapore ang pamilya nito mula sa Pilipinas noong 2010.
