FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

HOW CAN WE HELP?

INTRODUCTION TO SELLING

WHY SHOULD I SELL WITH BECCAS BAGS?
  • Becca’s Bags curates some of the most sought-after luxury designer pieces in Canada, and we’re thrilled to have you participate.

  • The resale market has transformed the way people shop and has helped disrupt the harmful clothing mill-to-landfill cycle. By selling or purchasing pre-loved items, you advocate for change, reduce the fashion industry's carbon footprint, and contribute to a more sustainable, circular economy.

  • When you sell with us, our online platforms attract thousands of visitors daily, giving you the best opportunity to sell your items at the highest possible price.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CONSIGNMENT & BUYOUT?

Eligibility

  • Buyout is available for women's and men's handbags and watches that are brand new or in 9/10 condition or better. However, we reserve the right to decline a buyout for any item.
  • Consignment is available for any item that meets our requirements outlined in the Consignment FAQ below.

Payouts

  • Buyout payments are typically lower but are faster and guaranteed.
  • Consignment payments can be higher, but it may take up to 120 days for items to sell, and there is no guarantee of a sale.

Speed of Getting Paid

  • Buyout is quick—you’ll receive payment within 7 days of your item being delivered to us.
  • Consignment operates over a 120-day period and may extend in some cases.

Payout Accuracy

  • Buyout, the amount you see is what you earn—it's a solid offer, not an estimate.
  • Consignment, the payout is an estimate and may be lower due to market fluctuations, price reductions, or the possibility that the item does not sell.

So, Which Option Should You Choose?

  • As a general rule, if a buyout offer is 40-50% or more of the consignment payout estimate, it may be worth taking the buyout for guaranteed funds upfront. However, if the difference between the buyout and consignment estimates is significant, consignment may be the better option for potentially higher payouts if you're willing to wait.

SELLING PROCESS

WHEN SHOULD I SELL?
  • We recommend selling a few months ahead of the typical fashion seasons to give your items the best chance to sell. The earlier your pieces are listed, the longer they have to shine! And remember, we love handbags and accessories all year round, so feel free to sell those anytime.

  • Incomplete Online Quote Form (missing required photos or information)

  • Consignment: quotes are valid for 30 days. If your item is received after the 30-day period, the quote may be subject to change.
WHY DID MY QUOTE CHANGE AFTER IT EXPIRED?

Quotes are valid for 14-30 days, and after this period, they may fluctuate based on several factors, including:

  • Current inventory levels
  • Market and fashion trend fluctuations
  • Supply and demand

These changes can result in a higher or lower quote depending on the market conditions at the time.

WILL MY ITEM STAY PRICED THE SAME FOR THE ENTIRE CONSIGNMENT CONTRACT?

While prices are valid for 120 days, price reductions or increases may be recommended based on several factors, including:

  • Current inventory levels
  • Market and fashion trend fluctuations
  • Supply and demand
  • Lack or increased interest in the item
  • Other retailers lowering or increasing prices on the same item

If a price reduction or increase is recommended, you will be contacted for approval before any changes are made.

If your item is listed at a lower price during a Flash Sale or a Promotion Code, this will not affect your payout, as Becca’s Bags will cover the cost of those reductions.
