Luxauro's Legacy, Vintage, & Antique Markets

Legacy Market

The legacy market is a niche segment focused on the dealing of pre-owned items that hold value, often due to their quality, condition, and/or importance. This market promotes the continuation of the purpose of the item and it’s history. All items listed, although pre-owned, should be well cared for and in good condition. The “life story” of the item should be revealed in the listing. Luxauro’s Legacy Market can include a wide range of items. These may include but are not limited to things such as furniture, finer clothing, jewelry, and collectibles. Items in Luxauro’s Legacy Market should typically be characterized by their:

  1. Quality: Items should be of good craftsmanship and made from durable materials in order to facilitate continuation of value and functionality for the next owners.
  2. Condition: Items should be in good to excellent condition (nothing less than fair), showing minimal signs of wear and tear, reflecting careful use and maintenance by previous owners.
  3. History: The item’s backstory (including its origins or previous ownership situation if known), and any significant events associated with it, especially anything that sheds light on its condition or quality is crucial. This history can also add to the item’s value and appeal, and can be passed on as part of its legacy, connecting the past with the present.

The process of listing a legacy item on Luxauro involves revealing the items age (at least approximately), brand, condition, and story associated with it, along with anything else of significance. This way the new owner is aware of not just the item’s obvious functional or aesthetic qualities but also its place in history. 

In essence, the legacy market is about more than just selling used items; it’s about knowing its story, including facts that are not obvious but may reveal insight as to the items current condition, while potentially adding to the legacy when passing that item to new owners and possibly even for future generations. Even if it is still young, its story matters.
