New kid on the web; fashion agent the Closet Bureau

We have seen websites such as net-a-porter and designer vintage take the net by storm. But there is still lots of room to conquer the online designer fashion world, shows recently launched the closet bureau, a website that takes designer fashion and sells it for you on Ebay.  Acting as the agent operating between buyers and sellers, the Bureau takes care of everything from shipping to cleaning, to photographing the clothes.

Sophie Greene, a former PR agent and the founder of the company, was inspired by her mom who would occasionally take her designer clothes to dress agencies who would charge up to 60% commission.  The Closet Bureau charges 35% commission but saves sellers the hassle of having to put things on Ebay themselves and the buyers the insecurity of whether or not the seller is legitimate. The Closet Bureau ships to all countries.
