FAQ's
Our FAQ's section answers most questions about how selling with Handpicked works.
We take women's clothing, shoes, bags & accessories.
Items must be
- Current & stylish
- Well made & great quality
- Suitable for the current season
If you are no longer reaching for something because it feels outdated, chances are it will not be right for Handpicked either.
Our focus is on easy-to-wear, everyday items. We do not take any formal wear.
- No formal dresses or outfits
- No mother of the bride
- No wedding, prom or bridesmaids wear
- No heels, hats or fasinators
We love well-made, everyday designer bags from brands such as Mulberry, Anya Hindmarch, Aspinal of London, Strathberry, APC, Marni, Coach, Ganni and similar.
We are all about great quality items that look & feel like new.
Items should be
- Immaculate condition
- Current in style & season
- Freshly washed
- Free from any wear, damage or stains
- Soles of footwear must be clean
If you have had items in storage or the wardrobe for a while, then items will need to be freshly washed before bringing them in.
All selling is by appointment only. Please ensure you have booked an appointment below before bringing in items.
Items should be brought in clean and neatly folded in a bag.
We ask that items are not brought in on hangers, in garment bags or in suitcases, as this helps us process everything smoothly.
We suggest you bring in no more than 1 bag of items (ie. reusable shopping tote)
Please do not bring in items in binbags, on hangers, in garment bags or in suitcases.
If you are looking to have a large clear out then please contact us before booking an appointment.
All items are priced by the Handpicked team. We research each piece carefully and price based on fabric, condition, style, season and what we know sells well.
Prices are set by us, and we do not send out individual prices or price confirmations. If you have a price in mind, please let us know when you bring the item in and we will take this into account where appropriate.
Most items are sold on a 50/50 basis, so you’ll receive half of the selling price. We take time to research each piece, looking at its original retail price, current resale value, and how sought after it is before setting a fair price for both buyer and seller.
For luxury or designer pieces, our commission is lower, meaning you keep more.
We pay on the 15th of every month for items sold in the previous calendar month. You can choose cash, bank transfer, store credit or donate to a charity of your choice.
On the 15th you’ll also receive a clear statement by email, showing exactly what sold, the price it soldfor, and your earnings.
Yes, we send out an email when an item has sold. We also supply a full statement when a payout is made.
We keep items for around 10-12 weeks and do our very best to find them a new home. If something doesn’t sell, we’ll get in touch so you can decide what happens next, whether that’s collecting your pieces or donating them to charity.
If we do not hear back from you within 1 month of the end of your selling period, your item will be donated.
