VCA in Japan: resellers/second hand?

[wearingdenim]

I was mainly interested in the Alahambra collections. I went to second hand market and saw pieces that I already have so wasn't interested.

Hi! Do you recall around how much the secondhand Alhambra pieces are? I'm interested in a vintage alhambra onyx single motif necklace, and not sure what the market price for secondhand is.

Sorry, don't

Sorry I don't recall but I don't remember it being that much cheaper

If it's not an emergency, I would wait till they have the stock at the boutique. By the way, is it ok when your items need fixing, your local vca boutique would take care of that? I always worry that my local vca boutique won't help when I purchase the items at an overseas boutique.

How good is the price in Japan?

I bought in my country second hand before I started buying new VCA and they took care for cleaning or changing ring size without any problem. I even showed my SA a 10 motif hammered necklace I wasn’t sure if the authenticity and she was really comprehensive and helpful

Hi does anyone have more second hand shop address ? Will look for a zebra 🦓 piece there as my wishlist seems to be only wishlist items for VCA boutiques (magic, TQ, Lapis …) or not at the moment produced items …)
Do you search before to get there and let them prepare the pieces or is it possible to just come buy and look ?
Thanks

Check out ALLU Japan. They have a pretty good selection and decent prices IMO. It was easy for me to find pieces decently cheaper than retail (like maybe 10-20% cheaper). I’ve purchased VCA earrings and a pendant there.

Did you go directly via the Japanese website or through their eBay store?

Oh sorry I shopped in person. I did browse on their Japanese website to find items I was interested in, but I always purchased in person.
