Owners, Vikkie Richmond and Paul Smith, both 22, originally studied degrees in English and Psychology at Lincoln University where they used to sell the “odd bit” to make a bit of extra pocket money on the online auction website, eBay.
They realised it was so financially rewarding that after completing their degrees, they decided to go into business together and form the successful eBay shop, Glitzy Garments now based in Armthorpe, Doncaster. But what has shocked them even more is how in demand it has proved to be.
“Things are really speeding up. So much so that we know big things are to come of Glitzy Garments!” said Vikkie. “Sometimes it's hard to even list some of our garments because our friends and family want to see what I have first!”
Paul and Vikkie's business has only recently achieved “Platinum PowerSeller” within a few months which is an eBay selling status that is rewarded to eBayers who sell a certain amount every three months and know they are soon to reach the highest echelon, “Titanium.”
However great their collection of the latest fashion trends and service, Vikkie feels that their efforts are not enough.
“We put so much effort into our business, but I am constantly thinking of ways to improve things and push myself that little bit further- we aim to be the best!
“Our business means a lot to us and we love our work so much that we are now planning to design and manufacture our own glitzy garments in order to sell the best clothes out there!”
They now have hundreds of returning customers and have sent to a handful of famous places, such as the Capitol Records tower and the Celador company building who run “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire” and hope send to many more!
