Summary table of the funding deals for the resale market since 2024

We define the resale market as all sales of products that come back into the market after already being bought once by a consumer.

We include peer-to-peer secondhand sales, consignment and vintage shops, charity/thrift stores, brand or retailer pre-owned programs, and refurbished or open-box goods that were previously owned or used.

We exclude sales of brand-new overstock in outlets or off-price channels, purely B2B liquidation of new inventory, and non-ownership models such as rental, subscriptions, and sharing platforms.

We focused exclusively on pure players, defined as companies with at least 70-80% of their business directly tied to the resale market.

Our analysis has been done at a global level with a minimum funding threshold of $300k.
