5 REASONS TO BUY A PRE-LOVED DESIGNER HANDBAG
The second-hand market is growing exponentially around the world and experts suggest that UK’s second-hand market would be worth $45 million. So, now is the right time to delve into the pre-loved designer handbags market and buy what you couldn’t afford or missed in the last season.
Here are 5 reasons why buying a second-hand designer bag is not a loss.
It’s Cheaper than the Original Vintage LV
The cost is the biggest reason why many people opt to buy pre-loved Vintage LV or Chanel handbags. Moreover, why would you want to waste your hard earned money on an expensive designer handbag when you can buy a pre-loved Hermes in half the price which looks exactly like the new one available in the Hermes store?
At Attic House, we take great care of what we are offering to our customers. Every piece is inspected and only original pieces are available and obviously, it costs much less. Here have a look at our Hermes Collection.
Might Find the Special Edition Chanel Vintage
High chances of finding a rare and limited edition designer handbag in the pre-loved market, is another reason why people opt for second hand. Limited or special edition items go really fast and the probability of finding them in the store is nearly zero.
So, the pre-loved market is the place to find that rare Vintage LV bag or special edition Chanel Vintage bag. Also, at the second-hand market, you will find your favorite Chanel or Louis Vuitton handbag that you have been longing to buy in, if not new, new-like condition. So, why not buy a special edition Vintage LV bag that looks new but costs a lot less than the new.
Its Environment Friendly
The world is already suffering enough from global warming and the carbon footprints of the fashion industry is much higher than any other industry. According to the World Bank, the fashion industry is responsible for 10% of all carbon emissions which is more than the airline and marine shipping industry. Every year fashion industry consumes 93 billion cubic meters of water which is enough to feed five million people.
So, why not consume second-hand items and be a part of a sustainable world.
You Will Stand Out with That Preloved Hermes Handbag
If you love to stand out from the crowd and want to be the one with a special edition handbag in the party, go for second-hand designer items. Pre-loved markets are home to many rare and vintage items that are no longer available at the retail store.
Hermes is known to sell the most sought-after and unique handbags and currently, their retail outlets have over 3 years of waiting lists and some of them don’t even maintain a list now. So, if you want to envy your friends with a rare and limited edition Hermes luxury handbag, search for it among preloved Hermes handbags and you will definitely find what you are looking for.
Celebrities Also Buy Pre-Loved
Who doesn’t like to follow celebrities? Nowadays, a number of celebrities are trying to lead eco-friendly life. Anna Hathaway is considered a style icon but do you know she is a fan of vintage looks and she proudly wore a $15 vintage dress to Good Morning America. Julia Roberts is another A-list star who is often found shopping at her local thrift stores.
Also, Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, is often found recycling her dresses from her closet on numerous occasions. So, why not follow the duchess and start reusing designer handbags.
