Experiences with SELLING to Bag Borrow or Steal

^That's good news.

Glad I read this! I just submitted a request for a quote on a Coach Poppy bag I have.

^^Thanks for the info. Were they new or used? I asked about some that were like new, no receipt so maybe that's why nothing is over 150 quoted when the bags go for a lot more on ebay and bonz.

All of my bags that I have sold are like new

I am so happy that they sent you your check- I am sure that they are busy and there is bound to be one or two bad experiences, so I think the best test of character is how they solve the problem

I would like to provide the latest update. I wrote to Avelle to launch an official complain about my case. Erin responded to my email, apologizing for the long delay and lack of information. she said my "submission seems to have slipped through the cracks". They sent me the check immediately, Dave Martin from the company also gave me a call to apologize for the long delay. I received the check today, already went to the bank to deposit it. Hopefully it will clear smoothely.

I must say Erin and Dave were very fast in responding to my complain and resolving the problem. Due to their fast response, my confidence in Avelle/BBOS is restored, and would say that I would do business with them again in the future.

Thank you everyone for listening and for sharing the info.

they really wanted to give me nothing for my bags. I was shocked at how low and they are in perfect condition.

I had a bag that was new, with tags still attached. I had everything but the receipt. I included lots of detailed pictures. It retailed for $999. They offered me $150.

They offered me $30 for a NWT leather Kate Spade satchel.

I just sent the form in for a NWT Coach bag. I wonder what they will offer.

that is what they offered me as well on a 995 dollar purse. My Coach purses was just an insult. It's ok I understand they are a business but I felt insulted.

so in some cases consignment is better than avelle.

You could probably resubmit until you get a price you want, or name your price in the comments.

Has anyone tried this? Has anyone received a better offer?

I have, just once. They came up quite a bit. When I asked why the discrepancy, they told me because they have several employees working quotes, and it depends on who's doing the quoting at the time. I have another bag in today for a second quote - hopefully it's higher. I'll let you know.

Thanks. I just went on their website and saw my bag that I sold to them. It sold already and their price was . I can't believe that they sold it so fast.

How do you contact them, regarding getting a second quote? TIA.

Just resubmitted an item and they came back with the exact same offer. I even added more pictures and suggested an offer range given that the previous offer was for less than 15% of retail (for a brand new item), but no luck.

Better luck to you CoachGirlJami!

I have a bunch of coach, how are the quotes? anywhere near 50% of the original retail??

It depends on which style. I submitted some of my bags and they are BNWT and I got about 70% of retail.
