We Buy
We Buy Vintage
Velour has been buying and trading vintage since 2011. If you have something worth selling, we're worth talking to.
We pay 30% cash or 50% in store credit of our retail price.
We only buy vintage items. If it was made after the 1990s, it's probably not for us. Send a photo if you're unsure.
Buying happens at the shop on Thursdays only, 10am to 5pm, with exceptions by prior appointment. Fill out the form below with a brief description and up to five photos of your best pieces and we'll respond and go from there.

This is not an exhaustive list. If you think something fits the shop's aesthetic, send a photo. We'd rather see it than miss it.
A note on condition: We buy working pieces and worn pieces. Honest age and use don't disqualify something. Significant damage might — but on old or rare pieces, it often doesn't. When in doubt, send photos.
