eBay launches new handbag consignment selling service

eBayToday, eBay UK launches its new consignment service for luxury items, giving users direct access to expert sellers who will list and sell their items on their behalf.To power the service, eBay has partnered with experienced luxury seller, Luxe Collective. Specialists in selling coveted pre-owned luxury goods Luxe Collective bring unrivalled expertise to the consignment service.

Launching initially for designer handbags, eBay can now help consumers to list and sell their new and pre-owned handbags from top brands across all price points including Chanel, Hermès, and Louis Vuitton.

From its launch in the US, items sold through eBay consignment are seeing significantly higher final sale prices, than those listed traditionally on eBay. For example, a small quilted Chanel 19 flap bag sold for over 45% more than the average sales price for similar bags on the marketplace.

The process of selling with eBay consignment is seamless, with eBay and Luxe Collective handling every component once they receive the item – from photography to pricing – ensuring the listing is competitive and professional.

How eBay Consignment Works (step-by-step)

  1. The user fills out the consignment intake form by answering a few simple questions.
  2. Upon submission of the form, a prepaid, insured shipping label is provided.
  3. eBay and the consignment partner, Luxe Collective, handle the item’s photography, pricing, and listing.
  4. Once the item sells, the user and Luxe Collective receive the proceeds from the sale, with the user receiving a majority percentage based on the item’s selling price.

Mari Corella, general manager of luxury and sneakers at eBay, said: “As consumer interest in shopping for pre-loved luxury continues to grow in popularity, eBay is evolving to ensure it is at the forefront to provide shoppers with the best service. Consignment follows our already popular Authenticity Guarantee service that vets and verifies luxury goods, as we continue to enable customers to buy and sell on the platform with ease and peace of mind.”

Ben Gallagher, co-founder at Luxe Collective, said: “Luxe Collective has long been dedicated to delivering pre-loved luxury at an accessible price point on eBay. Partnering with eBay UK on its new Consignment service is a great moment for us as it will encourage more sellers to join eBay’s global community, bringing even more luxury pieces to the platform ready for shoppers to find their dream pieces.”

eBay Consignment comes on the heels of Authenticity Guarantee’s expansion to pearl jewellery and the marketplace’s acquisition of Certilogo, an AI-powered authentication provider. With the addition of Consignment, eBay is further cementing itself as a trusted destination for luxury and fashion.
