Sell Us Your Vintage

We want your vintage!

Please take a look at our policies for selling with us.

 

SELLING IN PERSON:

    Scheduling Your Appointment:
    • All appointments must be scheduled through our online scheduling platform - https://calendly.com/feathersvintage
    • If you have more than 30 items, please schedule 2 back to back slots.
    • Please cancel or reschedule within 24 hours if you cannot make your appt.  We will need to reschedule you if you are more than 10 minutes late. No call/no shows will not be able to sell with us in the future. 

    Preparing for your Appointment:

    • We buy vintage women's clothing, shoes and accessories that are 20 years old or older. We only buy items that are in excellent condition... this means no holes, stains, broken zippers, or missing buttons.
    • We accept modern high end designer items such as Gucci, Prada, YSL, etc. We also love smaller labels such as Esby, Jesse Kamm, Paloma Wool, etc. Do not bring us modern mall brands, business suits or wedding dresses please.
    • We pay out either 30% of the retail value through Zelle, Paypal or a check, or offer 50% in store credit, which is valid for one year. We do not use Venmo.
    • We accept items made of natural fibers like cotton, leather, silk, wool, linen, rayon, etc. No polyester please. 
    • The 3 main reasons I pass on items are because they are synthetic fibers like polyester, are not actual vintage, or are damaged in some way. Please inspect your garments carefully before you bag them to bring to us. 
    • We are always buying the best of all seasons.
    • Not sure what to bring? Visit our website and Instagram page for inspiration. You can also visit our Pinterest buying board at https://pin.it/2UdbMxm

      During Your Appointment:
    • We prefer that you bring everything folded neatly in a bag or bin, no hung items please.
    • Please arrive promptly for your appointment. Your appointment will begin at the time slot you chose, PLEASE DO NOT SHOW UP MORE THAN FIVE MINUTES EARLY. Your appointment will not start until the time you have booked. 
    • At the end of your appointment, we will discuss which items we would like to take, how we'd like to price them, and how much of a payout or trade offer you will receive for them. You will receive a carbon copy of this information for your records.
