Moving closer to Central New Jersey, upscale consignment chain Second Time Around has opened its third store in the state with a new location in Westfield. Opening on Quimby Street, this location is the company's 31st store. With a great mix of high-end and contemporary designers, this STA store will have something from everyone from the young professional on a budget to the Marc Jacobs-loving mom-on-the-go.
The Westfield store is the newest addition to Second Time Around's locations. Taking consignment upscale, Second Time Around carries the most coveted designer brands and items at a fraction of their original retail value. From high-end handbags to designer jewelry to premium denim, each store has a unique selection of upscale consignment. With 50,000 active consignors across the country, Second Time Around constantly curates their exclusive inventory, bringing customers seasonal, current pieces in new and like-new condition. With this approach, stepping into one of the stores promises to never be the same experience twice.
Second Time Around CEO, Bill Soncini, scouted this location saying, "We had tremendous luck with suburban New Jersey, specifically with our store in Englewood. Migrating to the middle of the state was a natural fit for Second Time Around."
Recently featured as the focus of Bravo's reality television show Fashion Hunters, Second Time Around gave an inside look at the world of upscale consignment from the perspective of one of its stores in New York City. The show followed four associates from the Mott Street store in Nolita as they searched the high-end closets of Manhattan's elite to add to the stores' inventory of designer pieces.
Based in New England, Second Time Around has established a national presence with 31 stores across 11 states in some of the country's hottest style districts. Since opening its doors in 1973, the company has grown into a national brand, bringing high-end items at budget-friendly prices to closets everywhere, both in stores and online.
To consign items, clients call a STA location near them and schedule an appointment. Items are priced at 65%-70% off their original retail value and are placed on sale for a 90-day period, wherein consignors receive 40% of the final selling price. Articles of clothing must be of a current style, seasonally appropriate and generally no older than two years. In addition articles should be in new or like-new condition and freshly dry-cleaned or laundered.
The store is located at 125 Quimby Street Westfield, NJ 07090. It can be reached at (908) 389-1002 , on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/pages/Second-Time-Around-Westfield/153412081458859 or on Twitter at @STAWestfieldNJ, http://www.twitter.com/STAWestfieldNJ.
