Shopping secondhand can be stressful, both in person and online, but Vestiaire Collective is one of the best places I’ve found to help streamline the whole process so I can actually find, and buy, what I want. First and foremost, it has a team of authenticators, so you can feel confident you’re buying the real deal. There are even Trusted and Expert badges sellers can earn to let buyers know they’re easy to work with. Prices are negotiable, it’s easy to make offers back and forth and items must be shipped within seven days or the order is automatically canceled, so you won’t have to wait ages for your new old designer items to arrive. Best of all, sorting through items is wonderfully easy thanks to a wide range of filters you can set and about as streamlined an image process as a secondhand site can have.
Since purchasing my pre-loved Gucci Bardot bag—which I am just as obsessed with now as I was when I first spotted it on the subway—I’ve made a handful of other purchases at Vestiaire. I’ve missed out on a handful I wish I’d jumped on, as well. So to help ensure the best of the best deals don’t pass you by, I curated a list of ten gorgeous designer handbags, all under $950, that you absolutely won’t regret adding to your collection.
