Designer bag value checker & identifier
Point your camera at any luxury handbag and Minti identifies the brand, model or line, and material, then shows what it's worth from live eBay listings. Note the details that drive value, organize your collection, and sell it, all in one app.
How much is your designer bag worth?
A single listing can be wildly off. Minti pulls live eBay listings for comparable bags, drops the outliers, and shows every comparable it used, so a classic Louis Vuitton, a Chanel flap, a Gucci shoulder bag, or an Hermes piece all get a value you can trace, plus a one-tap link to eBay's sold history to double-check.
- A low, average, and high range from live eBay listings, outliers filtered out
- See how condition, material, and hardware move the price
- Price history across 7-day, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month, and 1-year windows, with Pro
Identify any bag in seconds
Not sure exactly which bag you're holding? Minti's AI reads the bag to pin down the brand, model or line, and material, then matches it to a priced record. It recognizes major luxury houses across the classics and current lines, so near-identical styles don't get mixed up. No manual model-by-model searching.
- Recognizes major luxury brands like Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Gucci, and Hermes
- Notes that date codes, hardware, and condition drive the value
- Auto-fills the brand, model, material, and attributes so your entry stays clean
Authenticate before you buy or sell
Designer bags are among the most counterfeited items in the world, so authenticity matters more than almost anything else. To be clear, Minti is not a professional authentication service and does not authenticate bags. What it does is identify the brand and model, give you a market estimate from comparable live eBay listings, and flag the details worth checking yourself before money changes hands. For a high-value piece, we recommend a professional authentication service before a sale.
- Check date codes and serial markings against the brand and era
- Inspect stitching, hardware, and heat stamps for consistency and quality
- For high-value bags, get professional authentication before you buy or sell
Organize your handbag collection
Keep your bags in collections and folders that mirror how you actually organize them. Every item carries its images, condition, material, and current value, and your portfolio total updates as the resale market moves, so you always know what your collection is worth.
- Insurance and appraisal export: on the Collector plan, export a PDF report with photos, item details, and totals, the document an insurer asks for
- Anonymous mode: show the collection without showing who owns it
- Profit and loss tracking, what you paid against what a bag is worth now, plus realized profit after fees
Buy, sell & auction in the marketplace
When you're ready to trade, list any bag as a fixed-price Buy It Now or a live auction with anti-snipe extensions. Make and receive offers, accept secure payment through Stripe, and ship with a pre-paid label. Funds are held safely until the buyer confirms delivery. Handing a bag over in person? With local pickup the buyer pays through Minti up front, the money is held until the handoff, you scan the buyer's QR code or a 6 digit code, and a 48 hour inspection window follows before the funds release.
Designer bag FAQ
How do I find out what my designer bag is worth?
Scan the bag with Minti. The AI identifies the brand, model or line, and material, then pulls live eBay listings for comparable bags, drops the outliers, and shows every comparable it used, plus a one-tap link to eBay's sold history to double-check.
Can Minti identify the brand and model of a handbag?
Yes. Minti reads the bag to identify the brand, model or line, and material, and notes the details that drive value like date codes, hardware, and condition, so you know which bag you have before you price it.
Can Minti tell if a designer bag is real or fake?
No. Minti is not a professional authentication service and does not authenticate bags. It identifies the brand and model, gives a market estimate from comparable live eBay listings, and flags what to check yourself, such as date codes, stitching, and hardware. Counterfeits are common, so for a high-value bag we recommend a professional authentication service before you buy or sell.
Can I export my handbag collection for insurance?
Yes. On the Collector plan you can export a PDF report with photos, item details, and collection totals, the document an insurer asks for when you schedule a bag on a policy. It is a record of what you own and what comparable bags are listed for, not a formal appraisal or an authentication.
Is Minti free to use?
Yes. Minti is free to download and includes a monthly allowance of AI scans, plus organizing, value tracking, and marketplace access. Paid tiers raise the scan and storage limits for larger collections.
How do I sell a designer bag on Minti?
List any bag as a fixed-price Buy It Now or a live auction, receive offers from buyers, and accept secure payment through Stripe. Minti generates a pre-paid shipping label and holds funds until the buyer confirms delivery.
