Do you only accept items from popular high-end brands such as Hermès and Chanel?

No, quite the opposite - EcoRing Singapore accepts items from a wide variety of luxury brands, including those that are normally rejected by other secondhand shops. The list of brands accepted is non-exhaustive and constantly evolving, so do drop us a Whatsapp if you are unsure whether your item can be accepted.

Must my items be in good or unused condition to be accepted?

While the prices offered for new and unused luxury pieces are generally higher, EcoRing Singapore does accept certain old and even broken / defective pieces as long as they're from a luxury designer brand. EcoRing Singapore is also one of the few local secondhand shops that accepts pre-owned luxury items which do not come with the original receipt or authenticity card. If you have any used, vintage or defective piece from a luxury designer brand, drop us a Whatsapp to find out how much we can offer!

Disclaimer: Notwithstanding the above, please note that EcoRing reserves the right to reject certain pre-loved pieces due to the brand, condition, age of item model.

Can I re-purchase what I had previously sold to EcoRing Singapore?

Unfortunately, EcoRing Singapore is not able to return or provide any buy-back options for any item(s) sold to us. Arranging for the customer to buy-back an item sold constitutes as a pawnbroken transaction under the Pawnbrokers Act.
