Retailer guides

Nuvinty links to marketplaces and retailers in the UK and abroad, and you buy on their sites, under their policies. Before you click out, here is where each one ships from, what import charges a UK buyer pays, how returns work and who stands behind authenticity, quoted from each seller's own pages.

• The Luxury Closet

  Pre-owned luxury reseller, ships from Dubai

  The Luxury Closet is a pre-owned luxury reseller based in Dubai. Delivery to the UK is included in the price, but customs duty and import VAT are paid to the courier before delivery, and the return window is short. Budget for the import charges before you buy.

• Rebag

  Pre-owned handbag reseller, US

  Rebag is a US reseller of pre-owned designer bags. It ships to the UK by FedEx and adds UK import duty and taxes at checkout, so there is nothing to pay on delivery, but it does not accept returns on international orders.

• eBay

  Marketplace of individual and business sellers

  eBay listings come from thousands of individual and business sellers in the UK and abroad. For higher-value watches, handbags and jewellery delivered to a UK address, eBay's Authenticity Guarantee sends the item to an independent authenticator before it reaches you.

• Goldsmiths

  UK jeweller and authorised watch retailer

  Goldsmiths is a UK jeweller and authorised watch retailer, part of the Watches of Switzerland Group. It sells new watches and pre-owned watches, including Rolex Certified Pre-Owned, from the UK, so there are no import charges.

• T.LUXY

  New-season designer boutique, Italy

  T.LUXY is a new-season designer boutique based in Naples, Italy. It ships to the UK by DHL Express and prices in euros. UK import duty and VAT may be charged on delivery unless T.LUXY's checkout says otherwise, so budget for them and confirm the total before you pay.
