Seven crooks swiped nearly $500,000 worth of luxury bags and jewelry from an Upper East Side consignment shop this week, cops said.

They grabbed 17 Hermes bags, two Cartier watches, and an assortment of other watches, rings and jewelry – totaling $498,000 in value, cops said.

Earlier this month, a group stole $48,300 worth of luxury goods from the Celine boutique on Wooster Street — a shop that was targeted by looters in a $1.5 million heist in 2020.
