Our dedication to quality ensures that our customers can enjoy their purchases without any reservations about the condition of their preloved items.


Once your item sells and funds become available we will let you know via email.

This can take between 7-30 days from the sale of an item.

You will be paid in cash, bank transfer or gift vouchers - you decided.

If you opt to be paid in gift vouchers you will receive an addition 10% on top of your payout amount. Gift vouchers are sent digitally and valid for 24 months.


If you are selling a luxury item with a resale value exceeding £500, we will contact you after inspecting the item to discuss the selling price and commission. We thoroughly research each item to ensure fairness to both the seller and buyer. Factors such as desirability, demand, brand, style, and original retail price influence our pricing.

For all other items, we do not provide price confirmations or advice except for luxury items reselling at over £500, due to the high demand for our selling service. We encourage you to visit our shop, review our pricing, and use it as a guideline for your expectations. If you have a specific price in mind, please discuss it with us when you drop off your items.


Typically we keep an item for up to 90 days.

Towards the end of this selling timeframe, we might reach out to discuss your item and evaluate the selling period. Sometime great items require a little more time to find their new home. But don't worry, they are in great hands with us!


The commission rate is influenced by several factors, including:

  • The resale price of your item
  • The desirability of your item
  • The condition of your item

Typically, the commission is 50% for everyday items.

For items with a resale value of over £500, or for luxury & sort after items commission is between 30-50%.


Items may be sold both in-store at our Penrith location and online through our website. Please note that due to the large volume of items, we're unable to feature everything online or accommodate specific requests for website additions. The selection on our website is at our discretion. Additionally, we may utilise other third-party platforms for sales, also subject to our discretion. While we would love to offer every item online, curating our collection is time-consuming. Rest assured, we carefully choose where to showcase items to maximise their chance of finding a new home.


Unsold Items:
We will contact you if your item does not sell to arrange collection or donation.

Change of Mind:
If you decide not to proceed with selling your item, that's perfectly fine. It's important to note that your item may have already been sold, as we only notify you about sold items when your payout is due. If you change your mind, please get in touch, and we can coordinate the collection of your unsold item. We do request a 48-hour notice period, and kindly ask that you do not simply walk in and remove your item from the shop floor. This procedure ensures we can de-list your item from all platforms and maintain accurate records.
