I've been selling a ton of stuff lately out of necessity and sometimes it takes a couple weeks to sell, but I've sold most everything I've attempted to sell. If it doesn't sell on CL, I post it on eBay. I had an old simple black nylon Salvatore Ferragamo tote that I listed on Ebay for $35 and the final bid was for a little over $100. I was really happy about that one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-with-this-bag#post-127528 Sun, 21 Feb 2010 23:24:47 +0000 Maya 127528@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooo I hadn't thought of Craigslist. Good idea. Did you set a price Marianna, or did you just post it and negotiate a price? I have no idea what is reasonable to ask for. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-with-this-bag#post-127495 Sun, 21 Feb 2010 21:35:08 +0000 Dusty 127495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, yes, absolutely Craigslist. You won't be out anything other than the time it takes to try it. (and maybe some time if the people don't show up when they say they will to buy it). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-with-this-bag#post-127493 Sun, 21 Feb 2010 21:32:19 +0000 marianna 127493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would post it on Craigslist for fun. Craigslist is free so you don't lose anything and it might be interesting to see if anyone shows interest. If you don't sell it there, you could post it on eBay. I just sold a dated designer bag on eBay and got a lot of money for it surprisingly. So it's worth a try! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-with-this-bag#post-127459 Sun, 21 Feb 2010 20:30:32 +0000 Maya 127459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Julie, that's a good point. I hadn't considered that.</p> <p>I know what you mean Ele. I guess I am just being an opportunist here and trying to raise some money for my Fidji shoes...</p> <p>There are a lot of consignment stores in the area but they pay so little. If the bag sells for $30, I would probably get $15. Maybe ebay is my best bet. Or Julie might be right and I should hang onto it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-with-this-bag#post-127450 Sun, 21 Feb 2010 19:52:05 +0000 RoseandJoan 127450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think i would hold onto the bag for a couple more seasons, with the return of nineties fashion this bag may feel current again very soon! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-with-this-bag#post-127448 Sun, 21 Feb 2010 19:45:04 +0000 Ele 127448@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm. I generally have no qualms about giving things away to thrift shops; if I don't get use out of it, it's worthless to me, regardless of the "actual worth" of the item. That being said, I can see your point. Do you have any good consignment shops in your area, Maya? That might be an option. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-do-with-this-bag#post-127431 Sun, 21 Feb 2010 19:31:12 +0000 Maya 127431@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I may have posted this once ages ago, but didn't get too many replies. </p> <p>Remember these bags, that everyone in the world once had when Kate Spade first took off?</p> <p><a href="http://www.kaboodle.com/reviews/kate-spade-sam-handbag-8" rel="nofollow">http://www.kaboodle.com/review.....-handbag-8</a></p> <p>Well I have that bag too in cherry red, except now I feel that it looks dated. I have not worn it in years, nor have I seen anyone else wear it in years. Would I get any money for this? Ebay is giving me mixed results. Some bags go for $6, some for $90, some don't sell at all. A lot of the ones that go for higher prices are an anniversary edition of the bag, so I take that with a grain of salt. I can't imagine getting more than $30, and $30 would really surprise me, but something feels all wrong to me about giving away a designer bag to a thrift store (even though that's how I found mine, go figure). </p>
