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 New Look
- Wide-fit footwear, which is a real and under-served search and the brand’s most distinctive resale category
- Tall and petite range pieces, which are cut differently from the main range and are hard for those buyers to find
- Unworn stock with tags, which is common given the volume the brand sells online
- Occasion dresses in season, which is when the searches for them actually take place
What pulls New Look resale value down
- Everyday jersey and basics, which sit against a low new price and rarely justify their own listing
- Faux-leather footwear with creased and cracked uppers, which is the commonest failure in this price bracket
- Worn heel tips and scuffed soles, which decide the price of any used shoe and are always asked about
- Faded blacks on cotton and viscose, which happens quickly and is obvious beside anything newer
Identifying and dating yours
- State the fit explicitly — wide, standard, tall or petite — because that is the search term for this brand’s strongest categories
- Photograph the sole and heel tip of any footwear, which is the fact a buyer needs and sellers routinely omit
- Give the flat measurements alongside the label size, since the ranges are cut differently from one another
What lifts any crossbody bag, whatever the label
Crossbody bags live or die on the strap and hardware, because those take all the wear on a bag worn constantly.
- Adjustable straps with no cracking at the fold points
- Solid, untarnished hardware and working clasps
- Recognised designer and contemporary labels
- Dust bag and authenticity papers where applicable
And what pulls one down
- Cracked or worn straps, often unreplaceable
- Tarnished or flaking hardware plating
- Worn corners and edge coating
- Marked linings
Working out what yours is worth
- Flex the strap at its fold points looking for cracking
- Work every clasp and zip
- Photograph the strap, corners and interior
What to state in the listing
- Width, height and depth in centimetres, and the maximum strap drop
- Material, and whether it is real leather, faux or fabric
- Number of internal and external pockets, and what it comfortably fits
- Hardware and lining condition, and whether the strap is adjustable and detachable
Brand, material and size: “Leather Crossbody Bag, Tan, Adjustable Strap, Fits A5”. Saying what it fits — a phone, a tablet, an A5 notebook — is far more useful than dimensions alone and very few listings do it. State whether the strap detaches.
Preparing and photographing it
- Measure the strap drop, and check whether the strap is adjustable and detachable.
- Measure the bag’s width, height and depth, and note how many internal pockets it has.
- Clean the exterior, empty every pocket, and check the lining, zip and strap hardware.
- The bag front on, standing, strap arranged visibly
- The interior open, showing the lining and pockets
- The strap attachment hardware and the adjuster
- The corners and base, plus any wear, stain or scuff
When it sells best, and handing it over
Steady all year with a Christmas lift. Neutral colours in leather sell fastest; bold seasonal colours move more slowly.
Light and cheap to post. Stuff it lightly with paper so it holds its shape, and wrap the hardware so it does not scuff the leather in transit.
What buyers ask
What sells best from New Look second hand?
Wide-fit shoes, and pieces from the tall and petite ranges. Those are genuinely hard to find and buyers search for them specifically.
Should I mention that shoes are wide fit?
Always, in the title. It is the single most useful word you can put in a listing for this brand’s footwear.
How much is a New Look crossbody bag worth?
Roughly £10 to £58 depending on condition, against £15 to £89 for crossbody bags generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.
