hi everyone,

i need to sell a couple of my bags to make way for my new bags, now i am thinking about putting them on ebay. but shall i bother. i know a lot of girls have had trouble with the site with their listings getting removed and stuff! is there a alternative, im still patiently waiting to get on the market place here with no success yet.

thanks in advance.x

You can always try e-bay. I've had success with e-bay, however, lately it's been a little slow.

when i tried to sell a couple of chloes at the begining of the year i had no success as the listings kept getting removed, ive heard so many horror stories lately!

[bag*mad*bags]

are there any good consignments, i have about 5 bags im wanting to sell, so any information would be good!

ebay is a bitch these days but I have managed to sell a few items.....its always worth trying I guess.

There is a big chane they will hit you with a selling restriction if you are selling many of the same brand.

[bag*mad*bags]

yes i know and i dont want this.....
ebays ok for buying but sellings another matter!

Ebay has a lot of traffic that's why it's good for selling.
My advice is set up and listing and don't revise it, to avoid restrictions (revisions can count as listings)
Also an auction style format is cheaper in end value fees, as BIN listing end prices have jumped dramatically this last month ( 12%).
There are also "trading assistants" on ebay which are like consigners and can sell the bags for you,but of course they take a cut.

[bag*mad*bags]

oh really do you know any trading assistants?
do you just send them a message?

[aimtree]

If you go onto ebay and search trading assistant,it gives you a list of people. I was think ing of doing this for one of my bags, as I have the dreaded 30 day restriction at the moment. Also I think different sellers offer different % cuts, so good to look around.
You could also try portero.

ok thank you, i have listed them but they havent appeared yet so fingers corssed!

There is a consignment shop in Beverly Hills and one in Flordia that handles high end bags. They will also buy outright.

This is a link to an Ebay Seller that does consignment. I think they take 30% of the sale price and you have to pay all their related fees. On the plus side they are very nice to deal with. I have bought a couple of bags from them in the past.
