Today we’d like to introduce you to Carin Kirby.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Carin. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
After many successful years in the restaurant business, I decided to change it up and us my savvy business sense and went from seafood to handbags! With word of mouth and a little help from my friends, Consign Of The Times doors opened in Jan 2001, Miami Beach’s first true luxury consignment shop! With concierge style service, a clear focus on authentic luxury goods, a knack of all things fabulous and a great smile we have grown beyond my wildest dreams.
We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
After many many years on Lincoln Road, we were forced to relocate to our current new home, With a new location and unforeseen construction, the struggle was real Fast forward, we are happy and thriving!
Tell us more about the business.
Consign of the times specializes in the resale of luxury authentic goods i.e., Chanel handbags, Gucci, Hermes, and Louis Vuitton just to name a few. We are a small tight-knit lady crew who has a passion for all things luxury, excel in customer service, and are extremely driven and detail oriented. We pride ourselves in carrying new to like new items with new arrivals coming in daily.
What makes me proud is to think there is so much competition in the resale market but yet they chose COTT! Their loyalty is unmatched and I am forever grateful.
Has luck played a meaningful role in your life and business?
I don’t believe that luck (good or bad) played a role in our success. Lots of hours, hard work, sweat and tears from all is what has made Consign Of the Times what it is today!
