Buying pre-owned luxury fashion online can be tricky. Verifying whether an item is authentic or not provides its own host of challenges. That’s where a site like Vestiaire Collective comes in. First launched in 2009 by its six founders, the site protects the buyer of pre-owned luxury goods by authenticating and checking an item to make sure it is in good condition before being sold.
With that being said, you can find a wide range of brands on Vestiaire Collective. From vintage Chanel jackets to the more accessible brands like Zara, the website seems to have it all. It even has a fast delivery section which features items already in stock that are authenticated and can be shipped within 24 hours. From now to December 15th, VC will feature free shipping on its ready to ship section with the code FDP1113.
We recently checked out the site and they have some amazing things like the products we spotlighted above.

I want that coat!
I have made 4 purchases from Vestiaire collective and only 2 have actually been honoured. The system allows sellers to pull out of sales after a buyer has committed money and this happens in my experience 50% of the time. You buy something you have been searching for for months, and spend a week happily dreaming about it eventually arriving (the dispatch is leisurely! Two weeks is usual) and then they tell you the seller has changed their mind or sold it elsewhere. Beware anyone using VC.
