Our experience and credibility allows us to attain a 30-50% higher selling price on average for our sellers (than if they sold their items themselves), as pre-owned luxury is a market characterised by counterfeits, and value extraction is often difficult. For those who prefer not to wait for items to sell on consignment, but still want to avoid the hassle of selling themselves, we offer an ‘Instant Purchase’ solution. As we exclusively control inventory, unlike P2P incumbents, buyers are able to browse the most in-demand, curated products, with assurances around authenticity and quality, available for next day delivery at the click of a button. | $1.8M / Angel / Jun 27, 2019 | |

Spot Runner
|
Spot Runner is an Internet based ad agency that focuses on making it easy and affordable for local businesses to advertise on TV. Traditionally making commercials has been too expensive and complex for small businesses. The ones that have gotten past these obstacles often end up showing an ad that looks terrible in comparison to those producedfor major corporations.Spot Runner is looking to change the television ad industry by offering everything needed to get your commercial on TV at a reasonable price. The entire process takes just days and is a fraction of the cost (as little as $500) of what it otherwise would be.They've done all of this by creating a library of stock TV ads. Once users find one they like, they can customize it by adding voiceovers, a logo and business information. After an ad has been purchased it remains in Spot Runner's library, but won't be sold to anyone else in the same area. | $51M / Series C / May 07, 2008 |
