Net-a-Porter has lately made its incursion into the resale fashion request, partnering with Reflaunt to launch a new service for guests to resell their preloved developer goods. The collaboration will ultimately cover all of the Net-a-Porter group’se-commerce platforms, including Mr Porter and The Outnet, in a shot to keep up with the conscious consumers ’ demands for indirect options.

Net-a-Porter just launched its new resale service with Reflaunt, the B2B provider of secondary request technology. Rolling out across all of Yoox Net-a-Porter platforms by 2022, including Mr Porter and The Outnet, the new resale service gives guests the chance to give their preloved developer fashion goods a new life.

Net-a-Porter x Reflaunt

Net-a-Porter will be the first to launch the resale service, with its stock platforms to roll out the service latterly in 2022. On the new Reflaunt service, guests will be suitable to shoot their secondary particulars to Net-a-Porter to get it resold without the hassle of posting their own rosters on other preloved platforms.

The company will collect guests ’ particulars from their home or pick them up at select drop- off locales, also handle “ the rest ”, which includes everything from shooting the product, to listing and pricing. guests only have to choose how they wish to get paid once it gets vended, either by a bank transfer or in the form of Net-a-Porter store credit for a 10 added perk.
Net-a-Porter says the new service is as flawless and accessible for guests as possible, thanks to Reflaunt’s tech that can digitally authenticate products, make pricing recommendations and produce curated rosters.

At the moment, Net-a-Porter x Reflaunt is available for guests in the UK and US, before it launches in Germany and Hong Kong.
