what is this rack concept? what happened to gold old Ebay? So you have to go and man your own store or does someone sell for you??
The world moved on from eBay awhile ago, Gina! You’ve gotta get your help/minions updating you on the zeitgeist. It’s all Depop and having racks/stalls at resale spaces now. Hunter Markets, Rack It Club etc.
Rack It Club is super popular with my daughter’s demographic as purchasers. They’re in Brighton, Hawthorn, Malvern and Prahran so get people with pretty expensive wardrobes moving on the clothes they no longer wear, and younger people who can’t afford brand new high end brands get to give the clothes a second life. My 16 year old’s insatiable shopping urges are well served by the clothes someone else paid full retail for.
As a seller, you download some app, price all your items via the app I think, take them to the shop, hang them on a rack and then the shop is manned at regular retail hours, and shoppers come along and shop from racks. It seems like a pretty efficient way to shop because if you find something you really like on a particular person’s rack, the rest of the clothes should all be in the same size and a relatively similar style so you’re likely to find a whole heap of stuff you’re into.
It was started by two girls in their late 20s/early 30s and I really don’t imagine their customer demographic is short, fat, 47 year olds so fuck knows who will be buying her shit?
