I wanted to share about Tamara and her team at Arm Candy Bags in Market Harborough.
They are a small independent business from Market Harborough attracting customers globally because of there attention to detail, completely ethical and trustworthy practises and very reasonable pricing structure compared to other consignment stores offering similar services.
Crime is on the rise and designer handbag lovers have become particularly wary of elaborate schemes and confidence tricksters out there to watch when looking to sell a high ticket item like a Chanel, Hermes or Dior handbag. I follow Lucy Tugwell a luxury consignment expert and bag collector @atelier.vintage_uk on Instagram and even she has been sharing stories of what to watch out for if you are selling or buying a luxury handbag. Lucy is a wealth of information on the subject.
I have known Tamara at Arm Candy Bags for quite a few years now and her business and the service she offers for both sellers and buyers of luxury handbags and accessories is so good. She’s really friendly and professional, straightforward, completely trustworthy, and works on a very reasonable sliding scale for commissions taking a lot less when your bag is sold than most if not all of her competitors. When buying a bag with Arm Candy Bags you can be assured of authenticity because all the bags she sells are independently authenticated by Entrupy a bag authentication service Arm Candy Bags partner with, giving you extra peace of mind.
Tamara runs her business alongside her husband Joe who I have known to say hello for years. I have bought and sold bags with them since they set up Arm Candy Bags in 2016 and always had a good experience. And when I am shopping or trading I always look and see what Tamara has got to offer first before casting my net wider. I like the security of knowing I am dealing with a business I can trust, my number one concern when it comes to luxury designer handbags secondhand.
Arm Candy Bags, used to have a shop front on Adam and Eve St in Market Harborough, now you can find them in Parker House a secure office space as you enter Market Harbourough just past the Coop and the Police Station on the right hand side.
They have a great website for shopping but you can also go into their space and view a bag up close and personal before purchasing too. I find it’s best to make an appointment either by DM on Instagram or by emailing hello@armcandybags.com but they are open Monday through Saturday.
They also have a much anticipated Friday Drop every Friday at 10am where you can get first looks at the newest bags consigned before they hit the wider public. For Chanel Lovers Tamara also has a newsletter to preview everything Chanel as it comes in.
if you are a luxury bag lover, especially in this market when it’s easy to get conned, ripped off or both you need to have Arm Candy bags on your radar.
This is exactly the kind of small independent business I love, real people offering a highly rated super professional service and great value too.
Arm Candy bags are one of the good ones when it comes to luxury consignment and retail. And they are international too.
