I know resale value is down in general. But in your experience, which sites have the highest offers and relatively fast payouts? I’m kind of over most of my Chanel bags and would rather have money for trips. I think I’ll just keep my black classic flap and my grey 2.55. I sold one LV bag to therealreal in 2021 and made a profit. But 2021 resale market seems like a completely different animal compared to now. I’m not expecting that to be the case this time around.
 
1) Fashionphile. Easy process to bring to them directly or ship your bag and then you are paid out like the next day.
2) Rebag. They offered 400 less for one of my small classic flaps then Fashionphile did just recently.
3) TheRealReal. Consignment only. Just get paid when it sells. Confused about the commission they take on the sold price. One page says the lowest is 15%, but on the commissions page its 25%-30%. The higher range would bring the actual payout close to Fashionphile/Rebag.
 
I've had a great experience with Fashionphile, was pleasantly surprised at how high their payout was for two Gucci bags I brought in last year, had also gotten a quote from Rebag which was a lot lower for one bag - $655 vs. $850 (bag originally bought new for $950) and Rebag wouldn't even make an offer on the other since it was from the outlet. Fashionphile evaluated on site though, Rebag was through photos sent to an off site evaluator even though I did bring it in person.

I wouldn’t consign with The Real Real right now. My last few orders (I won’t consign with them ever again, but I’ll buy when stuff gets marked way down!) have been a MESS. Missing items, wrong items, items never shipped, open boxes arriving at my door, missing shipments(the shipment is a problem with the carrier who delivers DHL packages….which I didn’t know they used that route until recently). Ughhhh.

I feel for anyone who’s selling with them. With all these mishaps and missing things, I have no idea if the person is getting paid or not! I hope so.
