It varies depending on the size of the job and the upcycler’s capacity but on average 1-2 weeks.
What can an upcycler list for sale?
Any piece of upcycled, restored, or repaired furniture of high quality and in very good condition.
How do upcyclers get paid?
All payments are processed through Stripe. Once you’ve finished a commission job, or made an independent sale, you receive 85% of the final sales price into your bank account.
How does delivery work?
At present, delivery is arranged between customers and upcyclers either using their own transport or via a third party. We are striving to provide our community with a delivery service in the very near future. But we want to make sure it is both as environmentally-friendly and cost effective as possible, so bear with us while we work on this!
