SUCCESS STORY

How Style Cheat turned excess returns into revenue with Continue

Overview

The challenge

Style Cheat faced high returns and saw undervalued listings on third-party resale sites, which threatened brand perception and created costly operational challenges.

The result

With Continue, the brand launched a resale marketplace that converts returns into revenue, collects customer insights, and strengthens loyalty.

Why it works

Maintaining brand equity

Style Cheat saw their pieces being sold on Vinted at undervalued prices. By creating their own branded resale space, they regained control of resale value and ensured listings reflected the brand’s quality.

Turning returns into revenue

Returns outside the window or in imperfect condition created costs and difficult customer interactions. With resale, Style Cheat offers customers a way to pass on non-refundable items responsibly, recovering value for the business.

Access to customer insights

When items sold on third-party platforms, Style Cheat lost visibility into new customers. By hosting resale in-house, they now capture valuable insights on preloved buyers and bring them into the Style Cheat community.
