Luxury & Designer
Authenticated luxury resale for designer handbags, clothing, jewelry, and accessories. The luxury resale market is booming — authentication services have made it safer than ever to buy and sell pre-owned designer goods. Platforms like The RealReal and Vestiaire Collective handle verification, so buyers and sellers can transact with confidence.
Tips for Luxury & Designer
Luxury resale is one of the fastest-growing segments of recommerce, and authentication is the key to success. Platforms like The RealReal and Vestiaire Collective employ expert authenticators, which means higher buyer trust and better prices for genuine items. If you're selling, consignment through an authenticated platform typically yields 30–70% of retail depending on brand and condition. Keep original boxes, dust bags, and receipts — provenance documentation can increase your payout significantly. For Canadian sellers, watch for cross-border fees when using US-based luxury platforms.
