Selling your pre-loved pieces with In Style Ascot is simple. Our experienced team manages the process for you—from assessing and authenticating your items to photographing, pricing, promoting and selling them.

We sell through our Ascot boutique, our website and selected online marketplaces, giving your items the best possible opportunity to find a new home.

Assessment and Preparation

When we receive your items, our team will assess their condition, authenticity and suitability for resale.

Accepted items will be professionally prepared, photographed, priced and listed for sale. We manage the marketing, customer enquiries, payments and delivery, allowing you to sit back while we handle the selling process.

Please be aware that during busy periods, accepted items can take two weeks or longer to appear online or in-store. We may also hold an item until the most suitable time to launch it based on seasonality, demand, brand or category.

Pricing and Commission

Our team will recommend a selling price based on the item’s brand, condition, age, current market value and customer demand.

Commission rates vary depending on the item’s value, brand and individual seller agreement. All prices, fees and commission terms will be confirmed with you before your item is listed for sale.

To give your item the best opportunity to sell, we may recommend a price reduction during the consignment period. Any reductions will be managed in accordance with your seller agreement.

Authentication

Selected designer items must be professionally authenticated before they can be offered for sale.

Authentication costs £20 per item. This fee will usually be deducted from the seller’s payment once the item has sold.

If an authenticated item remains unsold at the end of the consignment period, the seller will be required to pay the £20 authentication cost before collecting or arranging the return of the item. The relevant authentication documentation will be provided where available.

Counterfeit Items

It is illegal to sell counterfeit goods, and we take any attempt to consign a counterfeit item extremely seriously.

By consigning an item with In Style Ascot, the seller confirms that they are the legal owner of the item and believe it to be authentic.

If an item is confirmed to be counterfeit:

• It will not be listed or offered for sale.

• The £20 authentication fee will remain payable.

• An additional £30 administration and handling fee will be charged.

• The total amount payable will therefore be £50 per counterfeit item.

The item will only be handled or returned in accordance with our applicable policies and legal obligations.

Where Will My Items Be Sold?

Depending on the item, it may be promoted and sold through:

• Our Ascot boutique

• The In Style Ascot website

• Our social media and live-selling channels

• Selected third-party marketplaces and partner platforms

We choose the most appropriate sales channels and launch timing for each item to give it the best possible chance of selling.

How Long Do You Keep Items?

Our standard consignment period is 12 weeks, unless we agree otherwise with you in writing.

If your item has not sold by the end of this period, you can:

• Arrange to collect it from our Ascot boutique

• Pay for it to be returned to you

• Agree to a further price reduction

• Ask us to donate it to charity on your behalf

It is the seller’s responsibility to contact us at the end of the consignment period.

Items must be collected within seven working days of the agreed collection date or the end of the consignment period. Items that are not collected within this timeframe may be donated to charity or responsibly disposed of, unless another arrangement has been agreed with us in writing.

How Will I Be Paid?

Once your item has sold and the transaction has been successfully completed, your payment will be made by bank transfer in line with our seller payment schedule.

Your statement will show the selling price and any applicable commission, authentication charges or agreed fees.
