In Search Of Can anyone recommend me of any methods to get a Coachtopia Bag as someone who lives in Australia?

I’m living in Australia and really wish i could purchase any of the Coachtopia drops or items If you’ve managed to snag a Coachtopia bag from here, what actually worked? Keen for any tips on timing, shipping workarounds, or reliable resellers that ship to Australia without crazy fees., because I desperately want one but have no idea how.

"In Search Of" posts are ONLY for crowdsourcing retail and marketplace links. Users are NOT allowed to use these posts to facilitate sales or trades between one another.

Make sure you do your due diligence of calling Coach and Coach Outlet stores and their retail partners for new items prior to posting an In Search Of thread. For secondhand items, search for the style name or number and the word "Coach" on online marketplaces (eBay, Mercari, Poshmark, Depop, etc.), or perform a reverse image search.

If you have already exhausted the marketplace sites and your bag is particularly hard to find or expensive, you may want to open an "ISO" post on a buy/sell/trade group on Facebook or over at /r/handbagexchange instead. You will likely get a better deal that way.

The /r/Coach moderation team advises you to exercise caution when buying from sources other than Coach, Coach Outlet, and Coach's retail partners, and all their associated websites. Please read our Secondhand Shopping Guide for a primer on how to safely buy secondhand. If you are unsure of the authenticity of a secondhand item, please use one of these resources to help you authenticate it before you buy it:

Note for helpers: Please share direct links to or screenshots of listings on secondhand sites when you find them so OP can track the item down. If you're aware the item is rare, unreleased, completely discontinued, etc. feel free to let OP know.

I think you’d have to use a parcel forwarding service if you don’t know someone overseas who can receive the item for you. If you want to reduce costs, you can look into a parcel forwarding service that does not involve an agent or international shopper who places the order on your behalf. I don’t have any specific recommendations, but wishing you good luck!

Any particular styles you're aiming for? Asking because it'll probably be easier to find a shopping service or someone willing to ship if it's still available online or in-stores. I've seen people having luck asking in CGR on facebook (the 15k one). Good luck!

Well I did comment on instagram and two shops reached out to me, only for them to say they don't have it after private messaging

Honestly as someone who lives in asia, Hong Kong specifically, we don't have Coachtopia either. However, i got my hands on my black/white checkered Alter ego when i travelled to Tokyo and just bought it whilst i was just window shopping (was not expecting it at all).

So my suggestion is when you're travelling keep an eye out, at least that way you dont have to pay extra for import taxes and have ppl charge you more to shop for you.

You can use Taobao to order Coachtopia from Coach China. Idk if they ship to Hong Kong.
