- Rental Process
Placing a Rental Order: Customers can browse our catalog and place rental orders through the Site. All orders are subject to availability, and Otelia Tate reserves the right to accept or decline any rental order at our sole discretion.
Payment: By placing a rental order, you authorize Otelia Tate to charge your payment card or other payment instrument all rental fees then in effect for your rental order, including, but not limited to, applicable taxes, shipping, and insurance and all such rental fees are payable upon rental order confirmation. Payments submitted in connection with a rental order must be made by major credit card, debit card and other approved methods when such approved methods specified on the website. With regard to credit and debit card payment, all credit and debit card information is provided directly to our third-party payment processors. Otelia Tate does not directly access, handle, or store your credit or debit card information. To submit payment for a rental order, you will need to provide your name, email address, telephone number, and your credit or debit card number, expiration date, and security code, as well as any such information as necessary to verify the applicable payment.
Credit/Background Check: By purchasing a rental with Otelia Tate, you are providing your consent for Otelia Tate, under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, to obtain information from your personal credit profile, background data, and other information from a global information services company that provides credit services, fraud and identity theft protection, and other services for consumers and businesses. You authorize Otelia Tate to obtain such information solely to confirm your identity to avoid fraudulent transactions in your name, to determine your financial stability, show your history of debt repayment and how much debt you have currently. Otelia Tate reserves the right to perform these checks at first order (when this is typically done), alongside any other time an order is placed. Otelia Tate will confirm the order and proceed to send the handbag only after you have cleared our credit check process. We aim to provide approval or denial within 72 hours of your credit check submission. If for some reason your credit check does not clear, we will issue a refund of your payment immediately and your financial institution should provide you with your funds within 1-2 weeks.
Order Confirmation: Once your payment is successfully processed and your credit check is submitted and cleared, you will receive an order confirmation email detailing your rental, including your chosen delivery date and Rental Period. Delivery time for Products you have selected to rent may vary based upon (i) inventory availability, (ii) your delivery address, (iii) when you place an order, and (d) other circumstances impacting delivery. Accordingly, Otelia Tate makes no guarantees as to actual delivery time.
Delivery: Handbags are shipped to the address provided during the order process. The risk of loss for Products shipped passes to you upon delivery by the applicable shipping service. All confirmed deliveries are the sole responsibility of the renter and you will be charged rental fees until the item is returned to us at the end of the Rental Period.
Return Process: Rented Products must be returned using the provided return packing and pre-paid shipping label, ensuring it is postmarked by the end of the Rental Period. When you return the package to the specified mail carrier, please request a receipt. If the package is lost while in the possession of the mail carrier, Otelia Tate will need the receipt. If the original packaging or label is lost, you must contact Otelia Tate to arrange for alternative packaging. Late returns are a violation of the terms of this Agreement, and we reserve to right to suspend or terminate your Account, charge your payment method additional charges, and/or take other legal action. A return is considered late if a Product is not returned within 7 days after the end of the Rental Period. Otelia Tate reserves the right to charge your payment method for the full MSRP Value of the Product. Continued failure to return the Product may result in legal action.
No Early Returns or Partial Refunds: Rental Fees are non-refundable if you return the rented Product early. The full Rental Fee for the agreed Rental Period is nonrefundable.
Order Cancellation: Otelia Tate reserves the right to cancel any order for a rental Product at any time prior to delivery to the Customer. In the event an order for a rental Product is canceled by Otelia Tate, the funds authorized or charged will be released by Otelia Tate within 3-5 business days. The exact date that you will receive your refund is dependent on the rules & standards of your financial institution and may extend beyond that period by 1-2 weeks.
- Buy/Purchase Product Process
Buy/Purchase: Customer can buy a Product for purchase. Items are preowned and typically considerably lower than retail prices.
Limited Refunds on Buy Out: Products are offered used in an “AS IS” good condition with some wear and tear that is reflected in prices offered below retail value. There are typically no returns offered on Product purchases; however, we encourage customers to inspect the condition of their Products and to reach out to us at customercare@oteliatate.com if there are any serious issues. For purchased items, a security tag will be attached to the product. We ask that you leave the security tag on for refund eligibility.
Any issues or discrepancies must be reported to Otelia Tate within 5 days of Customer’s receipt of Product, if you are interested in a refund. Serious issues (such as large variations between products described vs. received, and legitimate authenticity concerns) will almost certainly result in a full refund, delivered swiftly after return of the item and item/issue verification. We take the aforementioned issues extremely seriously and value your happiness with our services & products, as customers. If we find any product sent to you to be inauthentic upon secondary inspection, we will remove the product from our consignment inventory and investigate the sourcing, after your concern is reported to us. Your trust in our business is of the utmost importance to us.
In the event a refund is issued by Otelia Tate, the funds authorized or charged will be released by Otelia Tate within 3-5 business days. The exact date that you will receive your refund is dependent on the rules & standards of your financial institution, and may extend beyond that period by 1-2 weeks.
- Product Consignment Process
Inquiry Submission: Customers that are prospective sellers may complete the ‘Sell With Us’ inquiry form and we will promptly reach out if your Product is of interest. If the Product is of interest, which Otelia Tate determines in its sole discretion, Otelia Tate will provide a conditional offer, to be confirmed or adjusted after Product inspection.
Product Inspection: Customers will ship the Product to us at our cost (as long as the Product is authentic) and we will put the Product through a process of condition examination and authentication before a final offer is given to Customer. We aim to provide an updated offer within 3 business days of our receipt of Product.
Consignment: We seek to reach the highest sold price for your Product, with consideration for the Product’s condition and market demand, amongst other factors. We will send our consignment offer to you and, if you accept, we will send over a consignment contract to you and take possession of the Product. If the offer is not to your contentment, we will return the Product, at our expense as long as the Product is authentic. All offers by Otelia Tate automatically expire 7 days following the date that they were issued, unless otherwise indicated in writing by Otelia Tate.
You can expect commission to be anywhere between 70% and 90% of the product’s sold price, depending on the item and special promotions, which will be clarified in your contract.
Moreover, you will also have the option to rent out your handbag with the Otelia Tate until your handbag is sold, for additional commission. Additional commission, from rental of the handbag, can range from 20% to 30% of the net rental revenue. Commission on rentals is a bit lower due to the economics of renting (continuous authentication, insurance, 2-way shipping, etc.).
Handling of Inauthentic Products: While we cover the cost of authentication and shipping if the Product is authentic, whether or not you accept our final offer, we do charge a fee of $75 to compensate for time & shipping if the handbag is found to be inauthentic.
- Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold Otelia Tate and its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, and agents harmless from any claims, liabilities, damages, and expenses (including attorney fees) arising out of your use of our services, violation of these Terms, or violation of any rights of a third party.
- Rental Fees
Rental Fees: The Rental Fee ("Rental Fee") is determined by the selected Rental Period and the Product rented. Shipping and applicable taxes may be added.
Late Fees: If the Product is not returned at the end of the Rental Period, you agree to pay a late fee of $40 per day until the Product is returned. Otelia Tate reserves the right to charge up to the full retail price ("MSRP Value") of the Product if it is not returned by the specified ship/return date. For the avoidance of doubt, the daily Rental Fee will continue to accrue in addition to the accrual of late fees until the Product is returned.
- Rental Product Condition, Care, and Use
Care Obligations: Customers agree to handle all rented Products with reasonable care and to avoid excessive or abusive damage (exceeding normal wear and tear), loss, or destruction to the rented Products for any reason, including, but not limited to, theft, disappearance, fire, major stains, or any other reason. Products should be returned in the same condition as received, including all accessories and packaging.
Product Risks: We prioritize the health and safety of our Customers and therefore, we sanitize, inspect and authenticate every Product we send to you. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, use of any Product is at your own risk and Otelia Tate shall not be held liable for any potential risks, or health or safety complaints associated with your use of the Products.
Cleaning and Normal Wear: Otelia Tate professionally cleans all Products between rentals. However, Customers are responsible for any damage beyond normal wear and tear, including stains, scratches, and tears. Determination of normal wear and tear is at Otelia Tate’s sole discretion. Excessive staining or odors may result in a cleaning fee of $75.
Damage and Loss: If you return a rented Product with excessive or abusive damage (exceeding normal wear and tear) as determined by Otelia Tate in its sole discretion, you agree that, in the event of excessive or abusive damage, (i) you will be responsible for a damage fee or the full MSRP Value of the Product, as determined by Otelia Tate and (ii) Otelia Tate may charge your payment method on file for either the full MSRP replacement fee or a damage fee equal to one month's rent depending on the extent of the damage. In the event of a loss by any means or theft of a rented Product, you agree that you are also responsible and therefore you will be responsible for the full retail price immediately upon written notification of the loss or theft of a rented Product. Rental fees will continue to accrue until the payment is received in full. Additionally, Otelia Tate reserves the right to close your Account at any time if we notice multiple cases of excessive damage or abuse to the Products you have rented.
Unauthorized Repairs: Do not attempt to repair any damage. Any unauthorized repairs will be deemed significant damage, and you will be charged the full MSRP value of the Product depending on the severity of the damage.
Authenticity: We do not accept, sell or condone the selling of counterfeit goods. Otelia Tate takes extensive measures to ensure the authenticity of our Products, only buying from reputable sources that guarantee authenticity and continuously authenticating Products, before and after renting. Unless noted otherwise, the brands sold by Otelia Tate are not partnered or affiliated with Otelia Tate in any manner. If you have concerns about the authenticity of your Product, please contact us with 48 hours of receipt of Product and we will work diligently with you to resolve the situation.

If you attempt to return a Product using a shipping method or label that has not been approved by Otelia Tate, you are liable for the loss or damage of the Product. Given the value of the items being shipped, it is highly important for items to be secured in durable and discreet packaging. We have designed our packaging for that purpose.
Receipt of Rental or Purchased Products: You are responsible for inspecting the rented or purchased Product upon delivery to you. Any issues or discrepancies with the rented or purchased Product must be reported to Otelia Tate within 48 hours of the Product being delivered to you by Otelia Tate’s selected carrier.
