The luxury resale market has always been considered secondary to the primary retail market, and traditionally has been looked down upon by the luxury world, but recent growing demand for pre-owned luxury goods has made resale one of the fastest growing sectors in luxury. According to a report from the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefashionlaw.com\/the-luxury-resale-market-is-growing-faster-than-the-primary-luxury-goods-segment-per-bcg\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Boston Consulting Group<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, it has been estimated that \u201cluxury resale will grow at an average rate of 12% per year through 2021 to become a $36 billion market with a 9% share of the personal luxury goods segment &#8211; quite a bit larger than the 3% growth rate estimate for the main luxury market for the same period of time.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As people sheltered at home and travel was restricted, spending on experiences was replaced with spending on material goods, plus home improvement and redecorating. For those looking to refresh their closets, luxury resale has been a fantastic way to finally make those investment purchases, as well as a way to make money and supplement income. Since the pandemic started, online resale sites have seen major growth in both selling and purchasing &#8211; the Kon-Marie decluttering trend was instrumental in flooding platforms with gently used items waiting to reenter the market. This growth was mainly due to a younger consumer base that rejected fast-fashion for a more sustainable and affordable way to shop. Shopping resale helps combat environmental pollution and aids in reducing consumption by keeping items out of landfills and putting them back into circulation. This movement towards sustainability has most likely been a large contributor to the ongoing growth of luxury resale in 2020<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It would seem completely illogical that during a pandemic year, high-value accessories like watches, jewelry, and bags would be in high demand, but these first-class luxury items are well crafted from top-quality materials and have long term stable value. Think of grandpa\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/shop.rebag.com\/products\/watch-rolex-oyster-perpetual-sea-dweller-automatic-ceramic-and-stainless-steel-and-yellow-gold-406301412\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u200bRolex\u200b<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or grandma\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/shop.rebag.com\/products\/handbags-chanel-vintage-classic-double-flap-bag-quilted-caviar-medium6705124\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chanel\u2019s Classic Double Flap Bag<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a classic, heritage piece that will be as beautiful today as it was the day it was sold. Savvy shoppers are looking to invest in fewer items, but of elevated craftsmanship, as the well-crafted pieces will stand the test of time. Heritage brands like Herm\u00e8s, Chanel, Van Cleef and Arpels, and Rolex have proven to have excellent resale values that might appreciate in the future. \u200bRebag CEO and founder Charles Gorra recounted to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/what-sold-in-2020\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vogue the winning styles of 2020<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, emphasizing the value of investment-worthy pieces: \u201cWe get a lot of data on the trends that we saw, what has and hasn\u2019t sold, using an algorithm that lets us know instantly what people are buying. This [2020], there were some constants and a few novelties. Handbag resale is powered by the likes of Herm\u00e8s and Louis Vuitton. We saw that all of their classic models have sold really well. That\u2019s very much the impact of COVID; when the economy becomes more challenging, the consumer becomes more focused and investment conscious.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we head deeper into 2021, the quiet luxury trend of laid-back luxe is still staying strong. The continuation of sophisticated, simplified luxury (perfect to go with our luxe sweatpants!) translates into soft, slouchy bags and classic jewelry pieces that are not only smart investments, but add style to our current relaxed way of dressing. And because luxury implies value and craftsmanship, by buying that heritage Hermes Birkin or timeless Harry Winston jewelry piece, you can have peace of mind that your investment will be stable, and in the long run, worth it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_width=&#8221;1300px&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|40px|0px|40px|false|false&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Canela-Thin||||||||&#8221; header_3_font_size=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_3_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.5px&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">You May Also Like&#8230;<\/h3>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_blog fullwidth=&#8221;off&#8221; posts_number=&#8221;3&#8243; include_categories=&#8221;23&#8243; use_manual_excerpt=&#8221;off&#8221; excerpt_length=&#8221;0&#8243; show_author=&#8221;off&#8221; show_date=&#8221;off&#8221; show_categories=&#8221;off&#8221; show_excerpt=&#8221;off&#8221; offset_number=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; header_font=&#8221;Canela-Light|||on|||||&#8221; header_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; header_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.5px&#8221; header_line_height=&#8221;1.3em&#8221; meta_font=&#8221;Maison Book||||||||&#8221; meta_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; meta_text_color=&#8221;#999999&#8243; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_width=&#8221;1300px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;16px||0px||false|false&#8221; hover_transition_duration=&#8221;0ms&#8221; border_width_all=&#8221;0px&#8221;][\/et_pb_blog][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It has been just over one year since the novel coronavirus shook up the world, including our global economy.
