Second Time Around Opens in Newton Centre

2/15/2012

For Immediate Release: Second Time Around opens on Union Street in Newton Centre


A Newton native business is coming back home. Second Time Around has opened a new store location in Newton Centre, making this the company's second store in the town of Newton. The company's initial venture into the town was more than 30 years ago when Second Time Around opened its very first store, which still resides on Walnut Street.

This Newton 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.

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. Far from the land of thrift, these four fashionistas navigated the city in search of the best designer pieces to fill the racks of their store.

Based in New England, Second Time Around has established a national presence with 28 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 67 Union Street Newton Centre, MA 02459. It can be reached at 617-630-1700, on Facebook at www.facebook.com/STANewtonCentre or on Twitter at @STANewtonCentre
