Are old designer bags worth anything?
1 Answer

Yes, old designer bags may be worth something. Generally, the type, style, size, materials, maker, age and condition will determine how much a vintage bag sells for. Trends in collecting also vary over time, but many makers remain highly sought after year after year, such as Louis Vuitton, Hermès, Gucci, Chanel, Prada, Dior, Yves Saint Laurent, Burberry, Fendi and Celine. You can consult a certified appraiser or other knowledgeable expert to find out the estimated value for any pieces you own. On 1stDibs, explore a collection of vintage designer bags and purses.
