Second Showing is known for "middle to high-end" clothing, purses and shoes, and caters to women. It also has a "cash for gold" program, with incentives for referrals. It was opened by Wendy and Jimmy in the spring of 2009, and carries many designer brands, such as Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Kate Spade and Gucci. If you're dropping off items for consignment, no appointment is necessary, but all items need to be in new or excellent condition and pressed/steamed on hangers (hangers will be returned to you). When items sell, you receive 40 percent of what the item sold for, and the store keeps the remaining 60 percent; if items are unsold, they can be returned to you or donated. Tax receipts are also available, if items are donated.
