Pre-loved Luxury Bag Shops
Buying a designer bag is a sign to many Singaporeans that you’ve made it in life. But like Zoe Gabriel of Charles & Keith fame, not everyone can afford to get true-blue, brand new luxury bags.
If you’re a cost savvy Singaporean, one wallet-friendly option is to purchase second-hand. Not only is it more eco-friendly, you might be able to get your dream luxury bag at up to 50% off ― now that’s a steal.
Here are eight shops in Singapore which sell pre-loved luxury bags for a fraction of the original prices, so you can tote the bag of your dreams around just like a rich tai tai.
