I believe the rules states you cannot advertise your bags for sale. You cannot post pics & link them to your listing on whatever site you're selling on. The admins are pretty strict on this. I don't know how things are done on the Shopping Resources or Bags, Bags, Bags forums.


As far as other designers, I've been looking at Givenchy, Chloe, YSL, Celine, & an Italian designer of Massaccesi leather handbags. There's a thread for Massaccesi in the Handbag & Purses forum. They not outrageously priced as some of the other designers I've been looking at.

I do think MK had a banner year last year & it's hard to follow that. I've been watching his Collection series & haven't seen anything that really moves me. IYKWIM

What I've seen on another forum is where one tpfer will post another tpfer's auction. Just a thought.

Ugh I hate eBay sellers sometimes. "Lightly used, great condition". I received the bag today, used outlet Hamilton. I expect some wear when it's used but not to the extent that it was when ad claimed it was in great condition. Hardware super scratched up and stain on the back. Plus the seller said she would charge actual shipping cost, she wouldn't adjust the shipping and resend an invoice after I committed to buying it. She doubled it! I'm so pissed off right now. When I sent her a message about it before paying she played dumb. I should have just not bought it. I have wanted a black and ghw hammie for so long and finally bought one. Why are people so dishonest?! Ugh. Sorry ladies, had to rant!

You can file a SNAD claim since it was in a condition that was not described. Be sure to include pictures of everything along with pics of areas of wear that were not in the description.

I was thinking about selling one of my bags but I have decided it is not worth it. It seems that unless you are selling either a fake bag cheap or a popular style eg selma then the bags don't sell that well. The less popular bags (that are genuine and priced accordingly) seem to keep being re- listed. It is a shame. I was thinking of selling my Lana but I saw one the same colour as mine not even sell with a starting bid of £75. Once you take into consideration fees etc it is not worth it. The you get the hassle of potential buyers not paying, claiming its fake etc. I am probably going to see if anyone I know wants it for free or give it to a charity shop- I can't stand it sitting around unused!

I hope yours sells.

I agree which is a shame as the bags are lovely and so well made, people just want super bargains don't they :-/

Agreed. I'd rather gift my bags to someone than give them away on eBay. The resell value for MK is really low. I saw a large luggage Selma in good condition sell for $75. It has definitely helped me slow down my spending....:smile1:

That's understandable. Maybe someone else will enjoy it.

Has anyone tried using Craigslist to sell any bags? I heard someone mention before about finding good deals on there. You wouldn't have to pay all the fees. Just curious if anyone tried and had any luck.

There are definitely an over saturation of certain styles in certain brands. I was debating on listing a bag I don't use often, but there are so many listed I feel like I would get next to nothing. So I'm just going to keep it for now.

Craigslist I had a lot of low ballers - same with kijiji. But no fees and its cash so worth putting it up and seeing what sort of replies you get. Some people want something for nothing. [emoji58]
