How We Price Vintage (And Why You’re Getting a Steal)

No, we’re not just making it up. Here’s what goes into our pricing — and why $48 for that jacket is actually a bargain.

We get it. You're flipping through the racks, vibing with a killer pair of bell bottoms, and then… you see the price tag. Maybe you flinch a little. “Wait — $64? For used pants?”

Let us explain.

Because pricing vintage isn’t a dice roll — it’s an art form. And behind every price tag, there’s a whole lot more going on than you might think.

1. We Don’t Just Resell — We Curate

We don’t buy by the pound. We handpick every single piece based on style, condition, quality, and vibe. That means digging through a lot of busted zippers, pit stains, and sad mall cardigans to find the good stuff.

2. Condition Matters

If it’s clean, intact, faded in all the right ways, and still built like a tank — that’s rare. Most vintage has lived a whole life before it hits our racks. If we’ve restored or repaired it, you’re getting something even better than before.

3. Some Labels Just Hit Different

That 1997 Nike pullover? A Harley tee with a single-stitch hem? A pair of Levi’s with the orange tab? Yeah — those are high-value pieces. Not because we said so, but because the resale market has already decided they’re hot.

4. We’re a Small Business, Not a Thrift Store

Big box stores can sell fast fashion for $12 because they made 40,000 units in a sweatshop. We’re not about that. We pay rent. We pay staff. And we pay our pickers fair rates for the gems they bring in.

5. You're Still Getting a Deal

Seriously. If we were pricing everything at what it could fetch online? That tee would be $80. That jacket? Easily $120. But we’re not just trying to flip for max profit — we want people to actually wear this stuff. Love it. Live in it.

TL;DR:

Still Think It’s “Just a Used Shirt”? That’s cool. Someone else will grab it by the end of the day.
