Seller-declared grades, sterling with an approximate US dollar equivalent at £1 ≈ $1.33 (July 2026). What each grade means.
What holds its value across Kurt Geiger
- Crystal eagle-head bags and shoes, which are the pieces the brand is recognised for and which are searched by that description
- Main-line leather rather than the KG diffusion range, since the two lines are priced very differently new and used
- Complete crystal embellishment with no missing stones, which is the first thing a buyer counts in a photograph
- Boxed pairs and bags with dust bags, which are supplied on the main line and signal careful ownership
What pulls Kurt Geiger resale value down
- Missing crystals from the eagle motif, which is the defining fault on these pieces and cannot be matched invisibly
- Rainbow-striped and heavily branded seasonal pieces, which date to one season and lose their moment quickly
- Worn heel tips and scuffed platform edges, which decide the price of any used shoe
- Sticky or tacky coated finishes on older bags, which is material degradation rather than dirt
Identifying and dating yours
- Say which line the piece is — main line, KG or Carvela — because that is the largest single factor in the price
- Photograph the crystal detail close up in good light so the stone count is visible rather than described
- Photograph the interior brand stamp and any serial or style label inside the bag or shoe
What lifts any stiletto heels, whatever the label
Stilettos concentrate all the wear on a tiny heel tip, which is why tip condition dominates the price.
- Intact heel tips with no exposed metal
- Designer labels with a resale following
- Undamaged heel stems
- Original box and dust bags
And what pulls one down
- Worn-through tips showing the metal pin
- Scuffed or chipped heel stems
- Stretched vamps
- Very high heels, which suit fewer buyers
Working out what yours is worth
- Look at both heel tips and note whether they need replacing
- Photograph the heel stems and soles
- Measure and state the heel height
What to state in the listing
- Size as marked with UK, EU and US equivalents, and insole length
- Heel height in centimetres
- Upper material and toe shape
- Condition of the tips, heel covering and insole
Brand, heel height and size: “Stiletto Court Heels, 10cm, Size 5, Black Patent”. Heel height in centimetres is essential and rarely given. Say the toe shape — pointed, almond or round — because it is a real preference.
Preparing and photographing it
- Check both heel tips. Worn-through tips exposing metal are a floor hazard and cost very little to replace.
- Inspect the heel covering for lifting or scuffing, which is where thin heels show wear.
- Clean the soles and insoles and check the heel is firmly attached with no play.
- The pair side on, standing, so the heel height and shape read
- Both heel tips and soles
- The heel covering close up
- The insole and size label, plus any scuff, mark or lifting
When it sells best, and handing it over
Lifts before party season in November and December and through wedding season in late spring. Occasion shoes worn once sell best of all.
Post in a rigid box with the heels protected. Thin heels snap in transit when a parcel is compressed, so a padded bag is not enough.
What buyers ask
Is KG the same as the main Kurt Geiger line?
No — KG is the lower-priced diffusion line and sells for noticeably less used. Naming the line in the title is the honest and the more effective approach.
How much do missing crystals cost me?
A great deal on an embellished piece, because the embellishment is the reason it is being bought. Count them, photograph them, and price for what is actually there.
How much are Kurt Geiger stiletto heels worth?
Roughly £13 to £58 depending on condition, against £12 to £55 for stiletto heels generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.
