Bargain Fashionistas rejoice!
I recently stumbled across Bags Bonanza, an affordable online repository of handbags by brands like Michael Kors, Kate Spade, and Balenciaga:
Bags Bonanza carries used, vintage, and brand new bags starting at $13 and topping off in the $1,000 range. Shop by style, brand, material, color, proximity to you, and price. Peruse until you find your diamond in the rough.
The site is like Ebay in that select items are sold by individual sellers. So, just like Ebay, use your discretion. Reference this post on the best practices for buying designer bags online.
See more of Bag Bonanza’s goodies here and on their Tumblr here.
Let me know what you think!

Hi, Jeremy from Bags Bonanza here. I wanted to offer a quick response to Ally’s warning.
Bonanza and Bags Bonanza facilitate transactions between buyers and sellers; we help retailers, but we’re not retailers and we don’t keep an inventory ourselves. Due to the sheer volume of bags listed and sold on Bags Bonanza, it’s possible that not all sellers are reputable. Yes, we’ve caught some trying to sell a fake. We do police the site for fakes, but it’s possible that one or two might sneak through. You’re absolutely right: buy from sellers you trust!
The easiest way to determine whether or not a seller is trustworthy is to look at their feedback. You don’t get good feedback from selling a fake, I can tell you that.
To further help you decide who you can trust, we prepared this guide:

And if you do see anything suspicious, please send us a message! We remove fakes lightning-fast when we’re alerted.
Thanks!

claire this site been around forever, guess you was living under a rock. this is another form of ebay and most sellers prefer to sell on that site because of cheaper fees. bonanza changed their name it use to be bonanzle. people also sell homemade goods. glad you found it.
