Coach handbags are often listed on ebay. You can catch the beautiful, expensive purses at auction on ebay with no reserve price. (A reserve price is an undisclosed amount the seller has listed as the rock bottom price they will let the item go for.) There are pages upon pages of name brand purses listed, and you can get lucky and get very good prices on them. The thrill of the hunt, and the auction can sometimes become addicting, you may find yourself staying awake until 2:00 in the morning waiting for the auction to end, to make sure you're not outbid.

Another great place to find name brand bags at incredibly low prices would be local garage sales, auctions, flea markets, and of course the Salvation Army and Goodwill. Since donations to the Salvation Army and Goodwill are tax deductable, a lot of people donate their unwanted items to them. Most of the time, Salvation Army and Goodwill have set prices for their accessories, and you can find name brand purses in the bin for $4-$5. (I have been lucky enough to find a Gucci purse at a Salvation Army, and got it for only $0.50.)

Even storage building places have auctions. When people go a few months without paying rent on their storage buildings, the owners often go through and auction everything off. You can find everything from books to furniture, jewelry to purses in these sales. Often the local newspaper will advertise these auctions, to let you know the time, date and place it will take place, usually they land on a Friday, during business hours, so there aren't a lot of people able to go to them, you can get in there and get the good stuff, without a bidding war.

Your local newspaper, people advertise items in the classifieds that they no longer want, sometimes you can even find new items in the classifieds. Most of the time people just need more room in their home, or need money, and are willing to let their things go for a very decent price.
