For trade buyers
Frequently asked questions
Everything resellers, boutiques and live sellers usually ask before their first wholesale order.
Buying wholesale
How do I buy pre-owned luxury handbags wholesale from China?
Browse our catalogue or download the stock list, send us the item IDs you want by WhatsApp or email, and we confirm availability and price. You pay a deposit to reserve, the balance before dispatch, and we ship by tracked express courier. [EDIT] Minimum first order: 5 pieces or US$3,000, whichever is lower. Repeat buyers: no minimum.
Who can buy from you?
Trade buyers only: resellers, online stores, consignment boutiques, live sellers and wholesalers. We do not sell to individual consumers for personal use.
What is the minimum order?
[EDIT] Minimum first order: 5 pieces or US$3,000, whichever is lower. Repeat buyers: no minimum.
Can you source specific bags for me?
Yes. Use the Request an item form with brand, model, condition and budget. Much of our stock is sourced to order through our network of suppliers and auctions in Asia.
Why aren’t exact prices shown?
Wholesale prices depend on order size and change with stock, so the catalogue shows a price band (or price on request). We confirm the exact price when we confirm availability.
Authenticity & condition
Are the bags authentic?
Yes. We only sell authentic pre-owned items and never sell replicas. Every item is inspected before listing, third-party authentication is available on request, and any item confirmed not authentic by a recognised authenticator is refunded in full. [EDIT: confirm policy]
Isn’t China known for replica bags?
Unfortunately, yes — which is why we publish our authentication policy and grading scale, and offer detailed photos and video inspection. [EDIT: mention third-party certificates if available] Japan, Hong Kong and mainland China are also among the world’s largest markets for authentic second-hand luxury, which is where our stock comes from.
How do you grade condition?
We use a five-step scale: S (unused), A (excellent), AB (very good), B (good, visible wear) and C (fair / for refurbishment). Each item also has written condition notes and multiple photos. See the Condition grading guide for details.
Can I see a video of an item before buying?
Yes. We can send a recorded video or do a live video call for any item, including hardware, interior, date code / serial and any wear.
Payment, shipping & duties
How do I pay?
[EDIT] 30% deposit to reserve, balance before dispatch. Bank wire (USD) and other methods agreed in writing. All prices in USD, ex-works China.
How long does shipping take to the US, UK and EU?
[EDIT] Shipped by DHL / FedEx / UPS express to US, UK and EU, typically 3–7 business days after payment. Duties and import taxes are paid by the buyer (DAP) unless agreed otherwise. [EDIT] Items dispatched within 2–4 business days of final payment.
Who pays import duties and taxes?
[EDIT] Unless agreed otherwise, shipments are sent DAP and the buyer pays import duties, VAT/sales tax and brokerage fees on arrival. Handbags imported into the US, UK and EU are generally subject to customs duty and import VAT/tax depending on material and value; please check with your customs broker. We declare goods accurately as pre-owned handbags at the invoiced value.
Do you ship to the UK and EU after Brexit?
[EDIT] Yes. We ship to the UK and all EU countries. UK and EU shipments are subject to import VAT and possibly duty, collected by the courier. We can provide commercial invoices for your VAT records.
Returns
What is your returns policy?
[EDIT] Items materially not as described may be returned within 7 days of delivery for a refund or credit. We do not accept returns for change of mind or for wear that was disclosed in the notes or photos. Any item confirmed not authentic is refunded in full.
