How does the bag scanning work?

Point your camera at a bag. Purr identifies the brand, model, size, color, material, and hardware, then returns an estimated value in about 5 seconds.

How does Purr know what my bag is worth?

The pricing engine pulls from real resale market data across major platforms, weighing recency, condition, colorway, and material to give you a range — low, median, and high — not a single guess.

Is this just for handbags?

We're starting with handbags — they have the deepest resale data and the strongest appreciation. Watches, shoes, jewelry, and more are on the roadmap.

Purr is free to download with free scans to get you started. You can scan more with a single-scan pass or Purr+ for unlimited scans and unlimited closet space.

Is my collection private?

Yes. Your closet, what you paid, and your collection value are yours alone and never visible to anyone else. We never sell your data.

Which one to buy

Go caviar, buy the medium

If resale is on your mind, go caviar. It resells around $7,000 versus about $4,000 for lambskin, and that gap holds because caviar wears harder and barely scratches. The medium is the most-traded size, so it is the easiest to sell on later. Jumbos cost a little more and move a little slower.

Before you buy

What to know

Chanel raises retail prices most years, and resale follows within months, so a Classic Flap rarely loses ground.
Black and beige hold their value better than seasonal colors.
On lambskin, condition is everything. Check the corners and the leather around the closure closely.
Gold hardware and the classic quilt hold better than trend hardware or seasonal treatments.

Good to know

Caviar or lambskin? +

Caviar for resale and everyday wear. Lambskin is softer and prettier up close but scratches easily, so it needs more care and resells for less.

Which size holds value best? +

The medium is the most-traded and the easiest to resell. Jumbos hold value too but move more slowly.

Is the Classic Flap a good buy? +

It holds its value better than almost any bag on the market, largely because Chanel keeps raising retail. That said, values move, so treat any number here as an estimate.

Where do I sell mine for the most? +

Compare offers. The RealReal and Vestiaire consign for a percentage. Fashionphile and Rebag buy outright for a little less but pay you now.
