The site still works as Bag, Borrow or Steal did. You can rent bags, jewelry and sunglasses for a few days, weeks, months, or even a year. Find the hottest items and get them in your hands for a fraction of the retail price. Even vintage and high end designer bags are available! Some of the brands you will find include Coach, Cole Haan, Chanel, Chloe, LAMB, Marc Jacobs, Michael Kors, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Tory Burch, Hermes and many, many more.

If you borrow an item that you can't bear to return, just request to steal it. Avelle will then let you know if the item is available to sell, calculate the equity you've earned from the rental price, and add the difference to your shopping bag to check out. But, if you must part with your lovely bag, returns are as simple as printing out a prepaid label and dropping off the package at any UPS location.
You can become a member of Avelle for a year, three months or just a month. The membership price varies, but however much you pay in membership fees you earn in rental credit. Members also receive 20% off rental fees compared to non-members and have access to a few other features. But, you can always borrow as a non-member.
