Consumers can make the most of eBay consignment to sell new and pre-owned handbags from top luxury labels and their consignment partner will take care of everything from photography to pricing. What's more, items listed for $500 and more will show the eBay Authenticity Guarantee checkmark and upon purchase, they'll undergo eBay's authentication process.
