So, I’ve been doing some digging, scouring the internet like a crazed treasure hunter, and here’s the lowdown on snagging some Burberry without completely emptying your bank account.
First off, these ads keep popping up, right? Blasting “UP TO 90% OFF!” It’s like, *woah*, hold your horses. 90% off Burberry sounds suspiciously too good to be true. And honestly, most of the time? It kinda is. You gotta be a super savvy shopper to find those unicorn deals. I mean, I’ve clicked on a bunch of these, and it usually leads to a couple of not-so-exciting sale items or, worse, a bunch of stuff that’s *inspired by* Burberry, which, let’s be real, is NOT the same thing. You want the real deal, right? (I’m assuming you do.)
ThredUp seems like a decent option. I haven’t personally bought Burberry from them, but I’ve had some luck finding other designer stuff there before. It’s all pre-owned, obvs, so you gotta be okay with that. Think of it as vintage hunting, but online and hopefully without the musty smell. Just make sure you check the condition and authenticity *really* carefully. Photos can be deceiving!
Then there’s Bloomingdale’s clearance. Now, Bloomies *can* have some good sales, but again, don’t expect to walk in and find a brand new Burberry scarf for five bucks. It’s more like, maybe a slightly-older-season shirt, or a belt that nobody wanted. BUT, free shipping and returns? That’s a definite plus. Makes it less risky to take a chance.
And Love the Sales? Honestly, never heard of it ’til now. But “average savings of £216”? Okay, that’s intriguing. Though, average savings are just… well, average. It doesn’t mean you’re *guaranteed* that discount on the specific Burberry thing you want. Still, might be worth a look.
THE OUTNET is actually pretty legit. It’s basically Net-a-Porter’s outlet, so they usually have genuine designer stuff at discounted prices. But “discounted” doesn’t always equal “cheap,” ya know? It’s more like “less expensive than it was last season.” So, temper your expectations.
