For two days only — beginning today, August 12th<\/span>, through tomorrow, August 13th<\/span> — shoppers visiting eBay’s luxury handbag machines will have a chance to score a coveted bag from luxury’s foremost brands, like the Herm\u00e8s Birkin, Chanel Classic, Prada Diagramme and Louis Vuitton Nano Speedy Monogram. Style enthusiasts beyond the borders of Los Angeles<\/span> and New York<\/span> aren’t out of luck, however: by heading to eBay’s\u00a0<\/a>Instagram<\/a><\/u> or\u00a0<\/a>Twitter<\/a><\/u>, shoppers everywhere can play for a chance to grab a designer bag, all marked with eBay’s Authenticity Guarantee.<\/p>\n

In addition to the luxury handbag machines, eBay is also launching “A is for Authenticity<\/a><\/u>“, a short film narrated by celebrity fashion stylist Law Roach. The video showcases some of today’s most covetable handbags as Roach narrates alongside a series of A to Z visuals, giving shoppers an inside look at eBay’s Authenticity Guarantee service for luxury handbags.<\/p>\n

Previously available for sneakers and luxury watches, eBay expanded its Authenticity Guarantee service to handbags in June 2021<\/span> as eBay’s luxury sales hit an all-time high with a 30% YoY increase. The service has significantly changed the way people buy and sell luxury items by leaving nothing up to chance, and to-date, eBay has authenticated more than 1 million items across sneakers, watches and handbags.<\/p>\n

“eBay’s luxury shoppers are constantly thinking about their next designer handbag,” said Tirath Kamdar<\/span>, GM of Luxury at eBay. “In the same way traditional vending machines solve for convenience, eBay is making luxury instantly accessible, bringing designer handbags directly to enthusiasts in New York<\/span> and Los Angeles<\/span> — while also demonstrating the incredible inventory available on the marketplace.”<\/p>\n

\n Ways to Win<\/b>\n <\/p>\n

Offering an engaging gaming element, in-person participants will have a chance to win one of six handbags displayed in each machine by participating in a luxury-based trivia game to test their knowledge of all-things-handbags. <\/p>\n

eBay’s luxury handbag machines will be at two locations (New York<\/span> and Los Angeles<\/span>) from 12 – 5 pm<\/span> local time: <\/p>\n
