We at Care of Carl have always valued a carefully selected range and offer The Classics of Tomorrow - high-quality products in the premium and luxury segment that are as relevant today as tomorrow. That is why we work in exactly the same way when we select bags and aim to create a classically timeless selection.
We only source bags among well-known luxury brands and choose iconic models to offer you a secure investment. We intend to focus on high quality bags in good to excellent condition so that you receive an item that both feels and looks good, as well as lasts over time. Note that most bags are made of either canvas or leather, both of which tend to patina. Thus, both colour and appearance change over time, depending on the degree of use. Therefore, there is a certain variation among the selection, even among bags of similar age. However, we are thorough when capturing and describe all details and possible defects in both image and text. This is so that you know what you are buying and that the item you are ordering corresponds to your original expectations.
Our bags are sourced from companies overseen by us, our experts verify that all bags are genuine and in the condition, we describe in store. In the unlikely event that a customer could prove that a bag purchased from us is fake, we will of course take it upon ourselves to buy the bag back at no additional cost to the customer. Contact us here.
We know that buying a vintage or pre-owned bag is a big event, and making such an important investment online means it is important to make sure everything is correct. Therefore, we offer all our customers the opportunity to receive advice from one of our bag specialists with many years of experience. Read more here.
As always, we put the customer first and intend to do everything to ensure that you have a secure and easy shopping experience. We therefore offer free shipping, for easy and safe shipping. At the same time, you can choose from several payment methods. Regardless of whether you want to pay directly or over time, you will no doubt find an option that works for you. If for some reason you are not satisfied with your bag, the same generous conditions apply as usual with our 14-day return policy and free return shipping.

In general, it is said that a bag that is older than 20 years is vintage. However, it is not so easy to draw that line every time because there are other parameters that can come into play. For example, if the model has been taken out of production or if it is unique in some other way. We have therefore chosen not to specify whether a bag should be classified as vintage or pre-owned, but instead focused on a detailed condition description in combination with a simple grading scale for the comparability between products.
All bags are shipped in our premium packaging, wrapped in paper protected by a hard cardboard. Some bags also come with their original storage bag. If so, this is indicated on the specific product.
If a repair, due to wear or other damage is required, we will unfortunately not be able to take the bag in for repair. Instead, we refer you to experts who have the right tools to carry out the necessary repairs. If you would like recommendations on where to turn to, you are of course welcome to contact us here.
We always offer 14-days return policy. If you are not satisfied with your purchase, you can return it within 14-days to exchange it for other goods, or get your money back free of charge. The return is only authorised if the seal on the bag is still in place and unbroken. We always offer free returns and exchanges. Read more here.
