Hello LoVers,
Thanks for anyone that would take the the time to read and help me.

So long story short I got a voucher for a faulty bag but I am at purse peace with my LV collection (love love my On-The-Go reverse lately) and would like to buy jewelries from VCA/Cartier. So I thought why not buy LV stuff with that voucher and sell them in order to put the money towards a VCA jewelry?

-So LV experts, what would you guys suggest me to buy which will avoid me “loosing” money after reselling them?

Thanks a lot for your helpful advices :heart:

Maybe repurchase one of the older bags you already own and love - get a newer version and sell your old one? Then you wouldn't lose immediate value, but get some residual value from pieces you've already used.

Unless you sell the item directly to another person, you’ll automatically lose 20-30%. Does the voucher expire? I’d just hang on to it. Or I’d get some SLGs.

Well my bags are in very good condition - pristine. So, I believe it would be better to get new items and sell them Brand new.
However, I don’t know which items are “fast selling” and selling near retail price? Any ideas?

Yes, the voucher expires in 6 months. I should get some SLG’s to resell? Any ideas on which items would sell near retail price? Thanks a lot

I don't think there's anything to resell at retail price. If you go through any resellers, and see that they charge a premium for near excellent pieces: it's because they lowballed the seller and upped the price for the potential buyer. They earn money on the margin spread. Nothing is as good as it seems.

Use the voucher and really buy something YOU will enjoy, or gift something OTHERS will enjoy. I think that's the best money saving strategy. Honestly.
