Designer handbags can be expensive. Most authentic designer handbags go for around $1,000(Gucci, Chanel, Louis Vuitton). Hermes sells women's designer handbags for $15,000! So if your not Oprah or Celion Dion, here are a few tips to help you find and buy cheap discount designer handbags.

Instructions

1. Do your homework. Research the prices of different designer handbags. If your going to be shopping for used handbags or even newly discounted handbags, you still need to know their original prices so you know if you are getting a good deal or not. If you find a certain handbag you like, look up one of the companies retail locations, call them, and ask what the bag retails for new.

2. Find out if the designer has any outlet stores in your area. High end luxury stores send their old merchandise they can't sell to third party outlet stores. Some stores like Gucci even have their own discount outlet stores.

3. Browse the ebay listings for discount designer handbags. Ebay has a wide selection of handbags for sale. Make sure the seller has good feedback and a large sales history. Many people sell fake or replica designer handbags on ebay. It's illegal to sell fake designer handbags, but, unfortunately it does happen quite often. Sales including an original sales receipt are always a plus as well.

4. Place a wanted add on Craigslist. Many women--and maybe a few men--have old designer handbags in their closet that they would love to get rid of in exchange for some extra cash.
