Any time you buy a handbag from the luxury fashion world, you’re making an investment. Not simply because you’re spending a pretty penny on something that, ideally, will be in your closet for years (and hopefully decades), but also because of the value it’ll appreciate over time. With that in mind, there’s a lot to think about before you jump into it all — especially if you’re looking at the resale market. However, Rebag has unlocked The Vault, which means you can read up on everything you need to know before you take the leap.

Chances are you already know the names of the biggest fashion houses out there. You might even be well-versed in their most iconic pieces. However, when it comes to getting those high-end pieces into your closet, well, it’s easier said than done. Choosing the right bag to make your sartorial investment can feel daunting if you don’t fully know what you’re buying into. Luckily, Rebag is demystifying the luxury resale market with its curated research, brand knowledge, and more to make your decision easier.

As a luxury resale company, Rebag and its experts have spent years gathering data surrounding the fashion world’s top-selling pieces — including classic handbags like the Hermès Birkin or Chanel's Flap Bag. And now, you can access this information all in one place, The Vault.

Typically speaking, shopping for an authentic luxury handbag with confidence requires the eagle of a trained expert. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t become an expert on your own. Information from The Vault includes detailed histories of major fashion labels as well as what to look for when you’re shopping, like the Blind Stamp, which is an embossed stamp to identify an Hermès bag’s year of manufacture and craftsmen. You’ll find everything from where to locate Hermès’ Blind Stamp and its anatomy to its unique history.

In addition to designer-specific breakdowns like the Hermès spotlight, The Vault also provides you analytical reports like consumer behavior — which also give you a more rounded approach to how you shop.
