Small leather luxury brand accessories that are good for reselling

Some bags can be called investment bags because they may increase in value.

However, it is never a guarantee that a collector will show up to buy your second hand bag in the future. Even if there are keen collectors, even a bit wear and tear on your bag can drastically reduce your bag’s value. Unless you own an in-demand bag, a single scuff can reduce your bag’s value by 50% off the purchase price instantly. Your reselling potential is sometimes worse than clothing.  

At Brando we believe classy, high-end fashion do not always have to come with an exorbitant price tag. This is why we pay special attention at vintage items. Not only can vintage designer items retain brand value, but also exhibit rarer features that newer releases don’t have.

Small leather luxury brand accessories are a different story. Stocks appear in the second hand market much more frequently than leather handbags, and remain for a longer time in inventory. Yet consumers who buy second hand small leather accessories exhibit very different behaviors than buyers of second hand bags.

Many small leather goods are not very style dependant, and provide some sort of practical utility, so the chances of them descending into obscurity are lower and can serve you well in the long run.

Here are some small leather luxury brand accessories to stay away from, if you want to resell them:

Tech accessories. Needless to say, it is unlikely that manufacturers of mobile devices will stick to the same height, width and thickness for every model. Therefore mobile goods are less likely to attract good value in the reselling market.

Belts with large hardware: This may be a contested area as I can see some pretty good second-hand designer belt prices on Ebay, but keep in mind that belts can correlate with bling culture – an area that rises and falls among designer brands.
