ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Please I need some recommendations where can I sell many used Louis vuitton bags, in ebay I cant sell now Louis vuitton because one idiot has reported yesterday one bag is ⊗⊗⊗⊗ despite is 100% authentic, the system now doesnt allow me because I have put another one yesterday after the first removal and it was removed automatically. Again is 100% authentic, Ebay system is very harsh especially with louis vuitton bags. I have many used bags and I have invested a lot. where can I sell please as ebay alternative with good traffic worldwide? used louis vuitton is very popular, people want only the authentic one and they will pay no problem. please any advise?? many thanks

It is used items and fully legitimate I sell not only Louis vuitton, I sell all used branded items, the only problem is Louis Vuitton, I know how it works the ebay system and is really ridiculous I have long experience with Vero and you can say I am expert in Vero. But for new stealth is almost impossible this particularly brand. also in long term is no chance.

Yes that is why I am searching other alternative ebay has not to be the only source of income, it is nice and challenging to discover another way, for sure there is, I am doing some research of etsy, i didn't had any experinces with it before. I sell in ebay further no problem, but only for LV i have to find another solution ( i will sell for sure LV in ebay but it will take another 3 months, i dont want to risk my others stealth because I know exactly how it wortks, I am relatively new in stealth world just 4 month old)

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

any good website alternative for used branded items? Amazon, Bonanza..??

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

My advise, stay away from selling Louis Vuitton handbags. You will run into more problems than it's worth, even if your items are 100% authentic.

BTW, high end luxury goods (such as handbags) are largely useless unless they come with it's original paperwork showing where it came from, or where it was purchased that can be independently verified.

Few, if any of the major marketplaces online are going to allow you to sell without these details anyway.

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Just keep creating more stealth accounts, listing and selling them until you finish your stock. You probably won't make a profit but you should break even at least. Better than sitting on dead stock.

Then do not re-buy anymore to sell ! they are clearly a trouble maker.

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Thanks for the advise, I will sell others brands as usual in ebay, but just only for LV i will try my chance in another marketplace and I will see if it is different somehow

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

There are specialty sites which sell luxury items,one came to mind and it just went public is called Realreal,there are other sites as well,google them.
Also auction sites such as Aspire will sell used brand names like Chanel,Tiffany.
There is also a site which will take a look at your bag and check for authenticity,many Ebay sellers rely on them to prove authenticity with their ebay items,but if Ebay has removed your listings,I dont know how this site could help?
There are also many scams with designer handbags,they can always file item not as described and return a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ one .

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

I dont know if it is available to you, but maybe try the The RealReal. It is basically a consignment site. I have no clue on their schedule of pay or offerings. Just may be an option for you. the site has a clean and good design.

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Thank you very much for the tip, after some research and advise I will try Bonanza and the realreal

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Try storenvy or ecrater.

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

The boutique auction houses like Aspire are rather picky,condition of preown designer handbags etc must be in very good condition

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

You can also try to find a local reseller of these bags if you're just trying to get your money back.

THat's what I'd do.

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

why should I register every new account, what efforts should I do

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Facebook.. there is many luxury handbag groups that you can sell in and get top dollar

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Don't listen to these guys telling you stop selling LV- if you know what you are doing keep going at it.
My advice: Keep creating Stealth-5 accounts atleast- do not sell LV right away maybe after several months of sales then list LV.
Next, try stockx..
Good luck

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Stick them on Facebook. If they are legit you will be able to offload them fast.

Take them to auction...if they are legit they will sell well.

If they are legit...thats the question.

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Find a large blanket and sell them in front of a popular tourist place like everyone else selling many Louis Vuitton bags.

If you are really selling a lot of $3,000 bags then why not open a nice little boutique near a popular tourist place.

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Nice personal experience :)

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Bonanza has no page views, wasting time

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

try to sell them on 2nd hand websites like craiglist for us, kleiderkreisel for germany etc

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Most of the items were sold in DEPOP, but I have learnt to stay away from Louis Vuitton

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Because there isn’t a direct supplier for Louis Vuitton. If there was op would just call eBay or email with proper proof and everything would be fixed.

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

But OP is selling used LV handbags,where did she get it?
She could have bought in a dept store or thrift shops?
If they are in very good condition and authentic,Realreal will come to her house to pick up the item,other high end auctions like Aspire would take pictures and list them,fee is $50 or 20% which ever is higher.per item

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Judging from his broken English language alone I can tell OP is selling ⊗⊗⊗⊗ bags, and not just LV.

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Are you idiot or what? I sell only used authentic, The problem by LV even it is authentic you need most of the time the receipt when the bag initially was purchased, understood now??

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Even if they are 100% authentic its such a valuable and regularly counterfeited item that youre going to struggle selling it.

Maybe try local selling platforms or gumtree/facebook selling groups etc.

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Yes most of them was sold in DEPOP, but now no more LV bag, is only headaches

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

You are in UK,are there any local auctions or consignment shops,high end ones .

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Yes there is for sure especially in London, I don’t have too much time and the move from one place to another one in London took half a day, is so complicated

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

I used to do this for 3 years. Half of those upper end stuff are ⊗⊗⊗⊗ but still sold expensive at thrifts. They don’t know the difference. Nobody is going to make a living finding Louis Vuitton bags at thrifts or second hand shops that are authentic. Think realistically. People who buy them aren’t just going to randomly give away a bag like that to a thrift, if they do it’s not common and chances are it’s 100% ⊗⊗⊗⊗.

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

I agree,t most are ⊗⊗⊗⊗,some look damn good.
But you could still find some authentic ones,just not in good condition,we have a thrift shop run by hospital,when a patient died,his estate donated his personal belongings and house items to the hospital -carpets,figurines,clothes,shoes,handbags ,jewelry,dishes.
You figure most people die at an advance age,so his belongings can be quite old.

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Ebay sellers use a website to authenticate designer handbags before they list.
A handbag can look very good but can still be a ⊗⊗⊗⊗,different Chinese factories make bags for different designers,they have the knowhow and the quality leather,lining,buckles.
When someone approaches them to make handbags for a designer whom they dont do business with,they will make his handbags using the similar material they have on hand,and stamp them using their machines.
the leather may be of lesser quality,the color is never used by the designer,the dye is slightly different,the buckles come from a different vendor .
⊗⊗⊗⊗ ones would be sold cheaper than the original,so the quality of material and workmanship would not match the authentic ones,you get what you pay for

Re: ebay alternative for Louis vuitton bags
 

Many people sell an authentic LV/Hermes/etc.. bag on eBay that their stupid boyfriend really paid $15,000. Then the buyer opens a "⊗⊗⊗⊗/not as described case", keeps your item and returns the ⊗⊗⊗⊗ one.

Suicide to sell anything like this on eBay. Even if you really are the sultans favorite and can prove the bags are authentic. You can't win here.
