Thrift Like a Pro – 7 Insider Tips for Shopping Luxury Resale

Luxury resale isn’t just shopping—it’s a skill. At High Society, we’ve helped hundreds of women build their dream closets without breaking the bank. Here are our favorite insider tips for scoring designer pieces like a pro:

  1. Know Your Designers – Study the classics and new icons: Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Balenciaga, and Bottega. Knowing their signature styles helps you spot deals fast.

  2. Check the Corners – Look at the seams, corners, and straps. Wear in these spots tells the true story of a bag’s condition.

  3. Authenticate the Hardware – Real luxury hardware is heavy, engraved, and often logo-etched. If it feels flimsy, it probably is.

  4. Sign Up for Restock Alerts – The best pieces go FAST. Join our email list to be the first to shop new arrivals.

  5. Ask for Measurements – Pictures can be deceiving. Know your ideal strap drop, bag width, and height before buying.

  6. Don’t Fear Vintage – Some of the best styles aren’t made anymore. Vintage Chanel, Dior, and Gucci are treasures that hold value.

  7. Trust the Experts – At High Society, every item is authenticated before it hits the floor. That peace of mind is priceless.
