1. All of your favorite bag types and styles are available and more…
We all know designer stores have seasons, with only certain collections available for a limited amount of time. This means a lot of people miss out on items and long for items that aren’t in store anymore. In the second-hand market, the item you are searching for is almost 100% there, as well as a wide range of highly coveted items from luxury brand’s previous collections.
2. Limited Edition Pieces are easily found
Quite Similar to the last reason with availability, rare bags are also very prevalent on the second-hand market. In the moment everyone is so consumed by these bags and the boutiques make them so hard to find but when the buzz has gone down, a lot of these hard-to-get bags are put up for sale which means it’s easier to buy pre-loved.
3. Better Prices
If the bag you want is out of budget or you can’t bear to pay for a bag, due to an unwarranted price increase. Buying pre-loved is a good alternative. You almost always find what you’re looking for in the price range you desire because it goes up and down based on condition and year so there is always leeway for you to find what you want price-wise.
4. The Hunt is fun and rewarding
Whether you’re looking for a rare bag or a certain price, hunting for the bag you want and searching vintage boutiques is always so much fun and very rewarding when you find what you’ve been looking for. The high you get off shopping is amplified 1000% when you find a bag that truly matches your pre-loved criteria.
5. It’s good for the environment
Finally the most known aspect and biggest pro for buying pre-loved is good environmental impact. By buying second-hand you are giving an item another life, being sustainable, and reducing your carbon footprint whilst still enjoying your beautiful handbag from your favorite designer.
