PRICING: What are you paying for?
Iyanna McDonaldShare
When you shop with Never the Newest, you're not just buying a garment, but the convenience to shop secondhand online, from selected, inspected and sanitised items.
There are several factors that I take into consideration for pricing.
For each item:
- Condition
- Rarity
- Brand
- Original RRP
- Sourcing price
- Maintenance (i.e. repaired button, re-dyed)
General service:
- Sourcing
- Inspection
- Sanitisation
- Convenience
I am striving for a balance between fair pricing for you and for me.
Practically speaking, I have to ensure I can recoup sourcing and running costs. As a one person self funded operation, I also need a bit left over to pay myself a liveable wage.
For you, my goal is to offer you an easy answer to more sustainable and ethical shopping, without the time and effort required to sort through op-shop racks. I'll also save you from finding any nasty surprises inside a pants crotch (mercifully rare, but horrible when it happens).
If you find value in this service and joy from the fashion, then I hope the price feels just right.
