Want to know which luxury bag to pick up secondhand? TikTok has the answer

Although TikTok may seem unpredictable, there is always a way to learn many tips and tricks there, including on second hand bags whose price is bound to rise soon – a much more predictable science than it seems!

Virality on TikTok translates into price increases on the used market

According to the second-hand fashion trader’s site’s latest report The real real, Generation Z (born after 1995) are among the most active customers: they buy more and more, with a growth that would increase steadily by 33% year on year. And this in a rather thoughtful way, perhaps thanks in part to the knowledge (easily shareable on TikTok) of the luxury houses to know, whose pieces are relatively worth their priceand those to avoid, who rely more on marketing than the quality of their products.

Undoubtedly both for the sake of the budget but also for ethics and the environment, the choice of second-hand seems to be the most reasonable and elegant for the hyper-connected and busy GenZ. And this choice can also be influenced by what’s trending on TikTokif we take a closer look at the history of top sellers and their price increase!

As noted by the media refinery around this relationship The real realTikTok has recently fallen in love with the stock market jackie of Gucci created in 1961 by the Florentine house, and named in reference to the first lady Jackie Kennedy.

While on the video platform around the keyword #guccijackie1961 unboxing videos (unboxing of its articles), suggestions for renewal, association of parts and skills to avoid counterfeiting have multiplied, it is the demand that has increased by 50% on The real real from 2020 to 2021, making also mechanically increase the resale price by 65%.

Anticipate price increases to get good deals

Enough for really interested and pretty smart people to do it see the upcoming trend and buy a model at a reasonable price before it becomes too coveted! And why not resell it once the trend is really established, making an incredible profit…

Same trajectory for the bag Multiple pocket by Louis Vuitton, particularly viral on TikTok around the hashtag #LVPochette. From last year to today, the demand for this model The real real increased by about 47%, which generated an increase in its price of about 137%.

So it’s an interesting trend for fans of second-hand and luxury fashion to keep in mind so that they can anticipate the price spikes that are not long in coming when a bag suddenly becomes popular on TikTok.

Business is business, after all.
