When you upload your clothing to Ragpiq, you're not selling it yourself. You're partnering with a verified reseller who handles the selling process for you. In return, that reseller takes a commission, which is a percentage of the final sale price. You'll see the proposed rate on every offer you receive, alongside what you keep in dollars.
The rate is set by the reseller, not by Ragpiq. It reflects the work they'll be doing, including photography, listing across multiple marketplaces, messaging buyers, and managing delivery. Once your item sells, the sale is split automatically on the agreed rate.
Rates vary by item value
Most resellers price by how much an item is worth, so the rate on a $40 jacket is usually not the rate on a $900 bag. Higher-value items typically carry a lower commission.
You never have to work this out yourself. Every offer shows the rate for that specific item and the dollar amount you'll keep, so compare offers on the money rather than the percentage.
Getting paid up front instead
Some resellers also offer to buy the item outright. Instead of waiting for a sale, you're paid straight away for a share of what they expect it to resell for. There's no waiting and no risk that it doesn't sell, and the amount is usually lower than a consignment payout would be if it sold well.
Not every store offers this, and some offer it only above a certain value.
Cash or store credit
Where a reseller offers store credit, your offer shows both amounts side by side and you pick at the moment you accept. Credit is usually worth more than the cash figure, since it's spent back in their store.
When the rate is locked
The rate locks the moment you accept the offer. It won't change afterwards, even if the reseller updates their pricing later.
