Visit high-end consignment shops. Your find isn’t guaranteed, but your chances of scoring an older Burberry bag in this type of consignment shop is vastly greater than in a low-end consignment shop. High-end consignment shops are typically located in larger cities and near affluent neighborhoods.

Go to Burberry outlet stores. The styles sold in outlet stores are generally one to two seasons old, and the prices are marked down almost 50 percent off the usual sales price. The bags are authentic Burberry, and you don’t have to worry about getting a knockoff.

Shop online sites such as eBay and Bag Borrow or Steal. To do this, you need to know your Burberry bags inside and out to ensure you are not purchasing a fraudulent item. Bag Borrow or Steal allows you to pay to borrow authentic designer handbags and return them when you are finished; each season the old bags go on sale for you to purchase. Common signs of counterfeit bags include poor quality, incorrect coloring, extremely low prices and sellers from overseas areas such as Asia, where counterfeiting is a huge business.
