MAY MARKET INTEL
May is when reselling switches gear. Festival season starts (Coachella just went, Parklife and Wireless coming up), the weather flips, buyers are spending. Two trends are dominating right now:
- Quiet luxury / Minimalist Renaissance is going parabolic. Cashmere, tailored, neutral, designer leather. COS searches up 360% on Depop. Buyers want timeless investment pieces.
2. Y2K and 90s vintage is still the cash cow. Levi's 501 is the #1 searched jean in the UK. Vintage tracksuits, baby tees, football shirts, all flying.
Translation: spring buyers want quality. Two routes to make money this month. Designer leather (high ticket, fewer flips, fat margin) or vintage (volume, fast flips, easy listings). The smart move is to do BOTH.
π£ DESIGNER LEATHER ACCESS (READ THIS FIRST)
Designer pieces below marked [D] are pieces I personally source. Hand-picked, fully authenticated, ready to flip. Most resellers can't get near these prices because suppliers won't sell them small quantities.
If you want trade prices on ANY designer piece on this list (LV, Gucci, Prada, Dior, Coach, Mulberry, etc), WhatsApp me directly:
π² +44 7535 184 537
Drop me a message saying "Hot 100 May" and tell me which pieces you want. I'll send you trade prices, photos, condition reports. Mentees and FastTrack members get priority. First come first served on stock.
You don't need Β£5k to start. Some wallets cost me Β£25-30. You can flip them for Β£80-120 same week. That's the ladder.
