Why South African Women Prefer Pre-Owned Designer Bags

Brand new doesn’t necessarily mean better. In fact, more local fashionistas are choosing pretty, pre-owned designer bags rather than new items that cost an arm and a leg.

Wondering why? Keep reading for our top reasons why South African women prefer pre-owned designer bags.

1) Experience Luxury for Less

Purchasing designer handbags can be hard when you’re competing measly Rands against strong Euros and Pounds. However, pre-owned designer bags are a fraction of the price – making it affordable for South African luxury ladies to purchase designer items.

2) No Limits to Limited Editions

Limited edition items from international brands aren't always available in South Africa. But if you don’t get it while it’s hot, you’ll be left out in the cold. Unless you reach for Africa's pre-loved market, of course!

At Luxity, you can access a world of rare and limited-edition brands – including coveted labels like Gucci, Louis Vuitton and so much more.

3) Pre-Owned Handbags Are Sustainable

The fashion industry contributes to more than 10% of global carbon emissions annually. However, when you purchase a pre-owned handbag, you breathe new life into an item and put less pressure on the environment to create a brand new one.

4) One Fashionista’s Old is Another One's Gold!

We all have those bags and shoes that we’re hoarding for a ‘special occasion’, but that day never comes. Instead of letting it gather dust, donate it to charity or make good money from it by reselling it. After all, one fashionista’s old is another one's gold!
