Why buy second hand Celine bags from Japan?
Celine is one of the world’s most desirable luxury brands, founded by the French fashion designer Celine Vipiana in 1945. Since its establishment, Celine has clothed the rich and famous with their elegant designs. If you’re a keen luxury shopper, then you probably have several Celine items on your wish list and we’re here to tell you the secret of getting real Celine for less – buy secondhand from Japan!
But why would you buy secondhand from Japan, I hear you ask. The answer is simple – Japan is a treasure trove of luxury secondhand goods in excellent condition. Japanese consumers are famed for looking after their items extremely well, and you can often find luxury goods in their original dust bags with minimal damage for a fraction of the original cost. With thousands of listings featuring Celine items, you may even be able to find some of your grails on the Japanese pre-loved luxury market!
