If you’re looking to do a little spring cleaning in November, Rebag is here to squire away your least-favorite luxury handbags and make you $$$ instantly. The seemingly too-good-to-be-true service is coming to Manhattan next week, when Rebag opens doors in West Soho (390 West Broadway) to buy and authenticate your handbags on the spot. You’ll receive payment within the hour! The store will also feature curated selections of bags from houses such as Gucci, Chanel, Hermès, Céline, and more. For those who don’t live in Manhattan, the process is just as easy on Rebag.com, which launches today. All you need to do is submit pictures of the bag you want to part with on the Rebag mobile app, and you’ll receive a free quote in less than one business day. From there, the seller can choose to accept the offer and have their bag picked up gratis (!!!) in New York City or ship using the prepaid shipping label from anywhere in the US. Once the goodies arrive at Rebag, the payment is issued instantly, and customers will receive funds within 1-2 business days. The service is the brainchild of Rent the Runway vet Charles Gorra, who also founded e-commerce site Trendlee.com, now part of The Rebag Group.
