    Hi, how many others are on there? did you look to see what they go for? - how much is it worth

    I have never heard of it.....but then I am not an expert!

    Had a look, someone may like them.....not my style! :)

    Also had a look at Daniel Hechter completed items! Doesn't look very expensive I am afraid! :(

    good luck on selling it

    would think if given as a free gift from a catalogue you may struggle to sell.

    thats what i thought. never seen a bag by this designer on there which makes me think he is a newbie designer.

    oh well/

    type in just his name, you will see lots of stuff.

  • Catalogue freebies will be hard to sell because it's likely lots of people will be trying to sell identical items, and lots of customers who wanted the bags will have got theirs from the catalogue co. in the first place. Is the catalogue still giving these away? If so, you might have a better chance after that particular item is no longer available as a "free gift".

    Daniel Hechter is a well established mid-range Paris designer. Perhaps Jeff Banks is the closest thing in the UK? It's mainly menswear as you have found out so a handbag probably wouldn't be too sought after.
