4. Fendi Baguette Bag

The Fendi statement bag, a cultural icon in itself in the late 1990s, was one of fashion’s first “It” bags. According to Rebelle data, the prices for second-hand Baguette models have risen dramatically in recent months, largely thanks to the style’s design revival and influencer hype.

5. Nike x Off-White ‘Air Force 1’ 

While Instagram may be riddled with popular sneaker models from Alexander McQueen and Balenciaga, the shoe resale market relies heavily on the singularity of a product. As an example, the Nike x Off-white ‘Air Force 1’ sneakers were originally listed for $170 but can now be found on eBay for $1,140, a 570% price increase.
