Products We Accept & Our Criteria
We accept well-known branded skincare, haircare, beauty, fragrance and accessories that are authentic, undamaged and not expired.
Each product is carefully assessed by a member of our team to make sure it meets our criteria and is fit for resale.
How we assess your products
A member of our team carries out the following:
✔️ A visual inspection to verify the condition of the product and that it matches the information provided in your selling form.
✔️ A shelf-life inspection by checking the batch code, manufacturing date, or expiry date labelled on the product. If we cannot find at least one of these, we will not be able to determine the product's shelf life, and it will not be accepted.
Pricing & Commission
We'll price your accepted products and you'll earn a commission of the sale price (minus GST) per sold product.
How we calculate a product's sale price
We price accepted products at what we believe to be a fair market value, taking into consideration the following:
- The price it's selling for from the brand or retailer.
- Its overall condition. Whether it's opened or not, and how much product is remaining.
- How much shelf-life is left.
- Demand for the item.
How much your commission is
Your commission is based on the price your product sells for.
$1 - $99.99: You get 45% of the sale price (minus GST)
$100+: You get 50% of the sale price (minus GST)
PSA! If you choose store credit as your payout method, we'll add an extra 20% to your payout.
Payouts
When its been at least seven days after a product (or more!) has sold, you can get your earnings paid out either as a direct bank transfer or store credit.
PSA: We'll add an extra 20% to your payout when you choose store credit.
Keeping tabs on your products
Your accepted products are with us for 10 weeks or until sold.
- Six weeks at full price
- Two weeks at 25% off
- Two weeks at 50% off
We'll give you a login to your Selling Account to keep track of your accepted products, earnings and previous payouts.
