VINTAGE BAG CONDITION GUIDE
All bags are pre-loved unless stated otherwise.
MINT
A near-perfect vintage piece that shows little to no signs of age. The item is in exceptional condition for its age, with no wear to the leather, hardware, or stitching. It may still include its original packaging and tags. A rare find.
EXCELLENT
Shows very minimal signs of wear, consistent with light use over time. Leather may show slight darkening or softening from natural aging, but the overall structure remains intact. Hardware may show slight fading or tarnishing from aging. All zippers, stitching, and hardware function properly.
VERY GOOD
Visible signs of wear which gives vintage charm, such as light scratches, surface scuffs, or gentle creasing on the leather. Hardware may show fading, tarnishing or darkening from natural aging, but the piece remains structurally sound and fully functional.
GOOD
A well-loved vintage piece showing noticeable wear. This may include scratches, stains, fading, or discoloration. Some parts of the hardware may have visible tarnishing or minor defects, but the bag is still fully functional and retains its vintage appeal.
FAIR
A vintage bag with significant signs of wear, such as heavy scuffs, stains, fading, or structural damage. It may have imperfections such as broken or loose stitching, tarnished hardware, or worn-down leather. While still usable, it may need minor repairs and is priced accordingly.
