Frequently asked questions
How does CLB XXIII authenticate handbags before listing them?
Each item goes through material review, tag and logo verification, and a check of hardware, stitching, lining, date codes, and pattern alignment against reference pieces. An automated scan runs first, followed by hand review from a specialist. Source history is checked too, and CLB XXIII refunds in full if a piece is found not authentic.
Is condition graded on handbags listed at CLB XXIII?
CLB XXIII sells both new and pre-owned handbags. Every listing carries a condition grade of New, Like New, Excellent, Very Good, Good or Fair, shown on the product page alongside authentication notes. Checking the specific listing is the only way to confirm the exact condition and grade of a piece.
Why does CLB XXIII only stock one of most handbags?
CLB XXIII's catalogue holds thousands of live listings, and most handbags appear as a single unit because each piece is individually sourced and inspected rather than mass restocked. That single unit model is common across the resale catalogue, so a listing that sells is not guaranteed to reappear.
Is shipping insured on handbags bought from CLB XXIII?
Every order of handbags is insured by CLB XXIII while in transit. A signature may be required on delivery, and responsibility for the item passes to the customer once that signature is obtained. Orders are processed and shipped within 24 hours of purchase, and delivery estimates run from the dispatch date rather than the order date.
Does CLB XXIII have a physical store to view handbags?
Yes, CLB XXIII has locations in Cincinnati and Beavercreek, Ohio, and handbags from the live catalogue can often be seen there in person. In-store availability does not always match the full online listing, so contacting the store ahead of a visit is the best way to confirm a specific piece.
How do you authenticate every piece?
Every item is inspected in-house before it is listed. We check box labels, stitching, hardware, material quality and construction against known factory details, and each piece carries our lifetime authenticity guarantee.
Are there any buyer fees?
No. The price you see is the price you pay. We do not add buyer premiums or platform fees at checkout.
Can I place a deposit and pay the balance later?
Yes. We take a non-refundable 10% deposit that applies toward the total price of your order. Speak to a private client adviser to set one up.
