Brighton Purses

Brighton purses are beautiful designer handbags, and can make a wonderful addition to any collection.  When you’re buying on eBay, you can have a Brighton purse, delivered to your door at a great price, if you know what to look for.  There are several factors that can help you distinguish an authentic Brighton purse from a fake.  Follow this guide, and you’ll be a pro at spotting the replicas!

1. Look at the Tag- When you are looking for an authentic Brighton Leather Handbag, look at a picture of the inside label.  The leather label patch has a serial number on it, and the Brighton Creed.  The Brighton Straw Handbags are slightly different.  The tag doesn’t have a serial number on it, however it will say Brighton.  It will usually have the signature Brighton Heart inscribed on the tag.
2. Marked out Labels- You may come across a Brighton Handbag where the serial number is marked out.  These purses are usually overstocks or have been discontinued, and were probably purchased at an outlet.  Brighton will mark out the serial number, to protect the retailers from giving a consumer a full refund, if they try to return it to a Brighton Boutique.
3. Check the Heart- On many bags there is a hanging heart ornament.  On the heart, the word Brighton is inscribed on one side, near the bottom.

Brighton Purses are a step above the rest.  And luckily the “knock-offs” are easy to spot, especially if you know what to look for.  Be sure to check our eBay-buying guide for more tips!!
