Authenticity

All items sold by Elite Pre-loved are thoroughly inspected and authenticated. We use AI technology through Entrupy, as well as our company having over 65+ years trading experience, we are the industry leaders in spotting genuine/counterfeit items. Any items believed to be counterfeit will be discarded/ destroyed. 

 

Pricing & Costs

We aim to authenticate and price all items within 48 hours of receipt. Once priced, the seller will receive an email breakdown of each item and its sale price. This will show our commission and the amount you will get back for the item when sold at full price. We generally work on a 50% commission structure. This is reduced down to 20% for more expensive items such as handbags, accessories and jewellery. Please contact us for more information. 

We aim to sell all items at full price within 6–8 weeks. After this period, items may be discounted to encourage a sale, with a reduction of up to 20% after 6–8 weeks and up to 50% after 3 months. If the item remains unsold after 4 months and has not been requested for return, we will apply further reductions to promote a sale.

The sale of a discounted item will not affect the commission structure applied to it. Additionally, a handling charge is applied to all items we receive: £5 for items with a sale price under £99 and £10 for items priced at £100 or above. Please note that handling charges are fixed based on the item's initial sale price and will not be reduced if the item is discounted.

 

Payments

Once your items are sold, the money will be added to your account with us. You will be emailed on the 1st of each month with an updated account balance, this will also show what items have been sold. 

We pay our customers via bank transfer or cash in-store. Bank transfers are carried out every Thursday, you can request a transfer via WhatsApp or email. Large cash payments must also be requested as we do not hold large volumes of cash in store. 

If you are paid for an item that is later found to be counterfeit you will surrender this payment back to Elite Pre-loved.
