SECOND Hand for 50 Grand’s handbag expert Reece made one guest’s “dream come true” as he sourced a vintage Chanel bag.
The Channel 4 presenter, who is Head of Handbags at Xupes, was intent on fulfilling contestant Kristen’s request for a “wow factor” handbag to use on her birthday.
The nail stylist, 33, was overcome when Reece sourced a black padded over-the-shoulder bag, with a gold chain.
The iconic Chanel interlinked C letter logo could be seen in gold at the front.
The item appeared in perfect condition and ticked all of Kristen’s boxes.
She gushed: “So Chanel. So nasty. So rude. You know what, I have to have it! Can I try it on?”
Reece replied: “Yes of course feel free.”
This only heightened the salon-worker’s excitement as she squealed: “Oh my god no. Oh my god.
“It is a dream come true. A hundred thousand percent a dream come true.
“I am addicted to handbags bad. It’s like my drug. You feel unstoppable,”
“Oh my god this is crazy. This is right up my alley.
“I love it. Love it, love it, love it!”
Reece then revealed the price of the vintage fashion gem amounted to £3,499.
He explained his empathy with Kristen – and any fellow bag-lover – and added: “People might laugh that it’s a dream to own a handbag or a watch, but it shows people it’s quite serious and the level of happiness they get from purchasing that item is priceless.”
Kristen earlier told the show she was a transgender woman and “couldn’t picture” herself without a bag on her arm.
She added: “It gets me every time. Every time.
“It’s like the best climax you’ve ever had in your life.
“Think of that climax – that’s what it feels for me getting a bag every time.”
A recent Second Hand for 50 Grand star was left overwhelmed as she was reunited with a cherished Prada handbag stolen from her late mum.
