  • VACATION pays outright 33% cash of what we will price your items at in the shop. 
  • Vacation offers consignment on a situational basis, please get in touch if you are a Vintage seller that would like to consign with the shop, or if you have high ticket items you would like to get top dollar for!

  • We buy Men's and Women's clothing, Jewelry, shoes and accessories, from all eras.  
  • We will pass on ALL activewear, underwear & fast fashion

VACATION'S detailed buying guide 

  • VACATION is always looking for items that are special! We are interested in most eras all the way from the 1800s to Y2K and Modern Designer.
  • The very best reference for what we are buying is our Instagram - here you can see thousands of garments we've had in store over the years.
  • VACATION specializes in original band and collectible t- shirts, Designer vintage from all eras, Denim that is made in USA and any garment that is unique, wearable and one of a kind. We are size inclusive, so all sizes are also welcome for consideration. 
  • We do NOT buy fast fashion, things like work out clothes, 'mall brands' or synthetics. There are always exceptions, but these are great general guidelines to consider when coming to sell to us.  

          

 Jewelry 

We love jewelry! Please consider selling your sterling silver, gold, antique and quality costume to the shop! Rings, earrings, necklaces, and masculine jewelry like bolo ties and cufflinks. We DO NOT buy modern costume, or jewelry we can't authenticate. 

 

Can VACATION buyers come to my house?

YES, but on a case by case basis. We ask you to email or message us on Instagram with a few photos of what you are selling. From there we will determine if a house call is the best route. We do storage units and estates frequently, please inquire if you have a surplus!

                                                                                                Why did VACATION pass on my items?

Please, don’t take it personally! We pride ourselves on the careful curation in the shop, and we do our best to purchase what we can from all of our customers, however we can only buy what we think can sell. 

 

Important to Note

  • We DO NOT hold clothes, you must be present for selling.
  • VACATION does not accept donations, please take what’s we have passed on with you when we are done with your buying appointment.
  • Dropped off clothes- with appointment only- need to be picked up same day, with arrangements made prior to drop off.
  • We do not accept walk in sellers, so it is very important that you call or message the shop to set up a buying appointment.
