Sell Designer Bags Perth
Sell Designer Bags in Perth
You do not need to live in Melbourne to sell with us. We take consignments from Perth and across Western Australia, and more than four in ten items we receive are posted to us rather than dropped in. If you are in Perth the process is entirely remote: email photos, accept your quote, post the item with tracked and insured freight, and get paid by bank transfer on dispatch.
The Purse Affair is Australia’s largest preloved luxury retailer, with two Melbourne stores, a nationwide online buyer base and a Lifetime Authenticity Guarantee on every item we sell. Your Perth bag is seen by buyers in every state, not just the ones who happen to walk past a shop.
How to sell your designer items from Perth
- Email your photos. Send front, back, interior, base, serial number and any wear to quote.tpa@gmail.com.
- Get your quote within 24 hours. We quote both a consignment price and an outright purchase figure so you can choose.
- Ship it to us. Once you accept the quote we send full packing and shipping instructions. Courier cost is at your expense, but our negotiated freight rates are well below retail and fully tracked and insured.
- We authenticate, photograph and list. Your item goes live on our website, in store, and across our social channels.
- Get paid on dispatch by bank transfer as soon as the item sells and ships.

Two ways to sell
Consignment — we photograph, price, market and sell the item for you over a six-week listing period, and you keep the majority of the sale price. If it does not sell you can collect it free of charge, reduce the price, or take a direct purchase offer.
Direct purchase — if you want money now, we will make you an outright offer and pay by bank transfer once the item passes authentication.
Brands we accept
Hermès, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, Rolex, Prada, Christian Dior, Saint Laurent, Celine, Loewe, Fendi and Bulgari, plus most recognised luxury houses. See our full list of accepted designers.

What Perth sellers bring us
Perth has one of the thinnest local resale markets in the country, which is exactly why selling into a national buyer base matters. Our Perth consignors typically achieve materially more than a local consignment store can offer, because the item is marketed to buyers in every state. We regularly take items from Perth CBD, Subiaco, Claremont, Cottesloe, Nedlands and Fremantle.
