FAQ

About

What is devines?

A curated shop for pre-owned designer and archive fashion from Asia’s second-hand market. We find the pieces, check them in person and ship them to you — without the language, payment and shipping hassle.

Are you affiliated with the brands you sell?

No. devines is independent and isn’t connected to or endorsed by any brand in our catalogue. Everything we sell is pre-owned.

Buying & offers

How do I buy something?

Press Buy on a piece to check out at the listed price. Want to ask something or talk price first? Use Chat / Make an offer.

Can I make an offer?

Yes. Open the piece, choose Make offer, enter your price in your own currency and send it. We accept it, decline it, or come back with our own price.

What happens when my offer is accepted?

You get an email and a Pay button in your chat. We hold the piece for you for 24 hours — if it isn’t paid in time, the hold ends and the piece goes back on sale.

Do I need an account?

Only to chat or make an offer. Log in with your email and a 6-digit code — no password. The same code creates your account the first time.

Inspection & authenticity

Is every piece checked?

Yes. After you pay, the piece goes to our inspection hub, where we authenticate it and check its condition before it ships. This takes 3–6 business days. If it fails authentication, we cancel the order and refund you in full.

Shipping & customs

How long does delivery take?

8–16 business days in total: 3–6 business days for inspection, then 5–10 business days in transit with tracked express couriers.

Is shipping free?

Yes, worldwide. The price you see includes shipping.

Will I pay customs or import tax?

Possibly. Orders ship duties unpaid, so any import tax or customs fees in your country are paid by you on delivery. We always declare the real value. Parcels refused because of unpaid duties can’t be refunded.

How do I track my order?

You get a tracking number by email as soon as the courier scans your parcel.

Payments & currency

Which currency do I pay in?

In the currency you choose in the menu at the bottom of every page. If it’s EUR, USD, GBP, AUD, CAD or JPY, you pay exactly the price you see, in that currency. Any other currency is shown as a guide and you pay in EUR; your bank converts it at its own rate.

How can I pay?

The payment options for your country are shown at checkout. We never see or store your card details.

Returns & refunds

Can I return a piece?

Everything is pre-owned and checked before shipping, so all sales are final — including change of mind and fit or sizing preferences when the measurements match the listing. Not sure about something? Ask us before you buy.

When do I get my money back?

Refunds for a failed authentication, a big mismatch, a parcel lost in transit, or a piece we can’t ship go back to your original payment method within 1–2 business days. Your bank may take another 5–10 days to show it.

Sourcing

You don’t have what I’m looking for. Can you find it?

Often, yes. Tell us the designer, the piece, your size and budget in Chat with us, or message us on Instagram. We search our network of sellers and send you options that pass our checks.
