We are pleased to offer several options for your authentic pre owned designer handbag consignment.

1. Direct Purchase: Sell your premier designer bag directly to us. If you’re a local consignor you can drop your bag off for an appraisal. Out of state customers can request a price quote online. It takes us between 1-2 days to authenticate and appraise your bag. At that point we give you an offer of roughly 25%-30% of what we think the bag will sell for. The percentage depends on how quickly we think we can sell it. Our pricing is based upon recent comparable sales of similar pre owned bags and our experience in selling luxury handbags. Your options for payment are company check or Paypal. You can decide to take the cash or leave it on consignment for the potential to earn more money.

2. Consignment: If you can wait a little bit longer to sell your bag you could potentially earn more money. We pay a 60/40 split on premier designer handbags. This means that you earn 60% of the final selling price. Although most of our premier designer handbags sell within the first 30 days our contract terms are for 90 days.

  • Chanel
  • Gucci (within the last 7 years)
  • Hermes
  • Chloe

Vintage Christian Dior Shearling Swing Coat

Your favorite online consignment shop is working in overdrive to bring you the best in designer resale clothing, handbags, shoes and accessories this holiday season.  Just last week we took in an amazing consignment with one of a kind vintage Christian Dior and John Galanos pieces. We’re also now offering white glove in home consignments to clients with premiere designer resale items they want to consign but don’t have the time to drop them off. You can expect this store, voted the Best Consignment Shop in RI to be fully stocked and ready to go as this shopping season kicks off.  If you haven’t shopped for gifts in an online consignment shop (or in any designer resale boutique) give it a shot this year. You’re likely to find unique designer items at a fraction of their original prices. Some even still have the original tags on them. If you’re not on our mailing list be sure to join so you’re notified of all of our Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, Cyber Monday and other holiday specials we’ll be running through New Years Eve.

Thanks to the online designer consignment powerhouse Karma Couture and their new affiliation with Swipely Inc every purchase made in their online consignment shop or in their upscale East Greenwich, RI resale boutique is now eligible to earn points towards cash back rebates.  Newcomer Swipely, Inc, headquartered out of Providence RI, tracks loyalty spending on Swipely registered credit or debit cards eliminating the need for traditional punch cards or coupon clipping.

One of the only consignment shops in RI and online to offer a rewards program, Karma Couture hopes to drive in new customers for the holiday shopping season and re-engage those who already flock to the store to snap up their pre-owned designer handbags, clothing, shoes and accessories at up to 80% off original retail prices.

“Our business is booming because shoppers are savvier than they were even five years ago” says business owner Sandra Picard. “Our new rewards program is simply an extension of the benefits of shopping designer consignment.”

And, how. The rewards program that Providence, RI based Swipely, Inc offers is not only unique for its ability to turn any credit or debit card into a loyalty rewards card but it pays all rewards  in the form of cash back rebates on that same card. “We like giving people options” says Picard, “With a cash reward they can decide to spend it anywhere. Obviously, we hope that they spend it here. But if not at least we know that they’ll be back to earn more.”

With the addition of Karma Couture, Swipely  boasts several hundred other Providence, Boston, New York and Washington based merchants in every category from fashion to dining.

Enroll in the Karma Couture rewards program online at http://www.ShopKarma.com.
