I love this! Thanks for sharing the concept of renting out luxury products and how to rent out your own products.

[@ShesThePosh]

My pleasure :) on average I make around 500 a month and my best month was 1k :)

[@StyleChatter]

Hey! I actually just joined Tulerie this past week based on your recommendation in a prior video! I’ve listed one item so far.. looking to list more. I also found and am following you on the platform, lol. I love what you said about seeing your items make special moments come alive in other people’s lives. I’ve used Vivrelle for the past few months to rent bags, and it’s been a good experience so far. Over the past few years I’ve also sold a lot on Poshmark, but this past year sales have been mostly nonexistent, apparently bc of an algorithm change. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on these platforms!

[@ShesThePosh]

Yay! Glad I could be of help! Hope it works out well for you. I really love the ladies and men I’m meeting on the platform :)

[@mothermoon3873]

That is really cool Jess ❤ wonder if they let you rent to own ?

[@ShesThePosh]

Maybe some day 😃

[@wb-lr9ig]

Smart idea. On the one hand I’m nervous letting others use my items even though I buy 99% preloved. On the other, the women who sold their items to me in the first place kept them in near perfect condition, and since those women are probably like the ones renting, perhaps it’s not such a crazy idea. Women who know about renting good bags, probably know how to care for them as well.

I used another platform before this and it was terrible. This one is so much better. I did have a pearl come off of one of my Chanel sandals but it was paid by the renter to get fixed.

[@LVCoffeeLVer]

I hate that you didn’t get reimbursed for the Fanny pack! Uuugh

[@ShesThePosh]

Yeah same I’m going to replace it at some point.

[@gdkarma]

I've been wondering about this -- on both ends. The risks make me nervous. Did you get reimbursed for your lost bum bag and sweater? Do you hold your own insurance or is it provided by Tulerie?

[@ShesThePosh]

I didn’t get anything for the bumbag or sweater. 😞 There isn’t any insurance for something getting lost in the mail. I’m the only one this has ever happened too. Just that luckily. Now I have made up all the loss with rental money and then some. Planning on replacing the bag after I do some purging.

[@Cakebattered]

Any company renting luxury handbags and doesn't offer customers an insurance option, deserves to go out of business. It saves your company in litigation costs, regardless of your TOS, and insurance is an actually a revenue generator for the company, besides providing convenience and piece of mind to the one renting.

[@ShesThePosh]

I agree! But apparently they say that insurance companies won’t provide the insurance for them.

[@bargain.hunting.blonde]

I love the idea of making money from bags just sitting but I worry about people not taking good care of my bags. And the getting lost in the mail is real 🫠

[@ShesThePosh]

Exactly but this platform you rate the renters too so if they don’t you can rate them badly. The mail thing I’m still the only person this has happened too 🫣
