It will initially be available in the UK before rolling out across Europe and the US.<\/p>\n<p>Rui Rapazote, Co-founder and CEO of Luxclusif, commented: \"We're excited to partner with Open For Vintage and offer our Resale-as-a-Service technology. We believe our experience in powering large programs will be very beneficial to Open for Vintage and we're confident that our end-to-end solution - covering technology, operations, and commercial - will be instrumental for its customer experience and circularity efforts.\"<\/p>\n<p>Customers are required to submit product details and photographs of their bags and a buy back price will be generated within two days of submission. Once accepted, the customer will send their bag to Luxclusif for verification, free of charge.<\/p>\n<p>This initiative aims to give OFV customers a circular experience, promoting a sustainable fashion economy. Simultaneously, it will help to increase the volume of pre-owned merchandise across the wider Farfetch network.<\/p>\n<p>The partnership will connect Luxclusif OFV\u2019s luxury customer handbag collections, a customer base that spans over 40 countries. In addition to the Loop launch, the OFV website has received a major tech upgrade, including migration to Farfetch-owned order management company, Onport.<\/p>\n<p>Colin Saunders, CEO of Open for Vintage, added: \u201cThe launch of The Loop and partnership with Luxclusif and Onport supports our mission to create the most trusted destination in re-sale by offering customers an unparalleled experience to discover, shop consciously and extend the lifecycle of luxury goods.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":114,"featured_media":220771,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,10494,12969],"tags":[21694,9921,22771,22128,21589,16665],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Open for Vintage launch a handbag buy back service \u2018The Loop\u2019 - TheIndustry.fashion<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Dublin and London-based luxury re-sale platform, Open for Vintage, partners with Luxclusif to launch \u2018The Loop&#039;, a handbag buy back service.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theindustry.fashion\/open-for-vintage-launch-a-handbag-buy-back-service-the-loop\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_GB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Open for Vintage launch a handbag buy back service \u2018The Loop\u2019 - TheIndustry.fashion\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Dublin and London-based luxury re-sale platform, Open for Vintage, partners with Luxclusif to launch \u2018The Loop&#039;, a handbag buy back service.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.theindustry.fashion\/open-for-vintage-launch-a-handbag-buy-back-service-the-loop\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TheIndustry.fashion\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/theindustryfashion\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2022-11-28T09:00:41+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2022-11-28T18:22:50+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.theindustry.fashion\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/open-for-vintage-.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1920\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1080\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Chloe Burney\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@theindustryfash\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@theindustryfash\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Chloe Burney\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Estimated reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.theindustry.fashion\/open-for-vintage-launch-a-handbag-buy-back-service-the-loop\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.theindustry.fashion\/open-for-vintage-launch-a-handbag-buy-back-service-the-loop\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Chloe Burney\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.theindustry.fashion\/#\/schema\/person\/04c8820fce3db93175092637b1978f3b\"},\"headline\":\"Open for Vintage launch a handbag buy back service \u2018The Loop\u2019\",\"datePublished\":\"2022-11-28T09:00:41+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2022-11-28T18:22:50+00:00\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.theindustry.fashion\/open-for-vintage-launch-a-handbag-buy-back-service-the-loop\/\"},\"wordCount\":298,\"commentCount\":0,\"publisher\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.theindustry.fashion\/#organization\"},\"keywords\":[\"circular fashion economy\",\"Farfetch\",\"handbag resale\",\"Luxclusif\",\"Luxury resale\",\"Open For Vintage\"],\"articleSection\":{\"1\":\"News &amp;
