Designer Handbags

8 replies

Hi All,

I have two vintage, designer Handbags from my grandmother who passed away in 2020. They are fantastic in condition. One is a Chanel from 1997, and one is a Hermes HAC 1997.

I have no idea how to sell them on - if I can't I may just have them on display. But the travel bag is huge! Any suggestions of who / stores that would buy them from me?

Firstly, what fab bags to have! For vintage pieces, I would say either approach a specialist like Fellows or Christie's. Other options are luxury promise but their service is terrible or bagista who I think are much fairer and easier to deal with. Sellier Knightsbridge may also offer a competitive quote on consignment.

Unless you have a genuine idea what these are worth, please don't deal with anyone wanting to DM you on here.

Go through an official, verified retailer. The auction houses would be a good bet. You could also talk to Liberty's.

I’ve just sold one of mine through the Handbag Clinic. They do seems to get a large portion of commission, but it was entirely hassle free to be honest which was important to me as opposed to having to do the selling myself!

Sothebys or Christys.

Luxury Promise in London is a very nice vintage designer bag store.
