How we determine the price we offer
When you contact us to sell your designer bag or jewelry, we request that you provide us with as much details as possible – condition, year of production, accompaniments, as well as detailed photographs. We also ask for your price expectations to ensure that we are in sync.
The payment price we offer you is based on the style’s popularity, the item’s condition, the item’s age, the estimated time to sell the item, prices of comparable pieces on the market, among other factors.
All purchase prices are negotiated on an item-by-item basis, but typically we pay between 75% and 85% of our estimate of the item’s selling price, depending on its dollar value.
Sale vs. Consignment
While we try to offer outright purchase as often as possible, there are items that we prefer to take on consignment. These are smaller leather goods, exotics and pre-owned bags. Consigned bags are handled and marketed the same way as owned bags and the time to sale is typically the same as owned bags.
When we offer the option of outright purchase or consignment, you have the potential for a greater payout with consignment. Therefore, consignment may be a preferable option for those seeking to maximize the return on their bags.
