About Vintage Cash Cow

Vintage Cash Cow is the UK's number one online platform for selling vintage items in bulk. The valuation company has a keen eye for vintage items with potentially high profit margins.

From cameras, jewellery to medals: you send it in for free and within days you will get a no-obligation offer from the vintage appraisers.

Less to landfill, more to happy new owners

In recent years, Vintage Cash Cow has developed an extensive trading network of auction houses, museums, institutions and independent makers. The mission is to give a second life to as many items as possible.

What is the challenge?

With 180 employees and a turnover of 25 million, you can imagine: a lot goes in and out at Vintage Cash Cows. Not long ago, the company was still using manual Excel files and e-mails to keep track of inventory as best as possible. But soon the desire came: the distribution process must be automated, more secure and efficient.

The goal? A clear and user-friendly inventory management system where Vintage Cash Cow can control and improve the process.

2 gebruiksvriendelijke en efficiƫnte interne voorraadssystemen

First, the vintage items that come in need to be categorised. What kind of item is it? And what is its estimated value? From this, we can find out which outlet the item is of interest to.

Is it a standard product? Then it will be sent in bulk to auction site and partner eBay.

Hebben we het over een high end product? Dan nemen we contact op met specifiekere veilinghuizen.

We have developed two separate tools for these two categories:

A user-friendly item inventory system for eBay

Many employees label dozens to hundreds of products every day. Using the login system, supervisors and administrators, as well as those labelling, can monitor the overview themselves.

Our UX designers transformed this overview into a new, user-friendly system. Embedded in Vintage Cash Cow's new branding.

The benefits:

  • You see immediately where stock is delivered

  • Clear how much is earned from stock

  • Fast communication with all employees

  • Direct insight into the number of labels that employees have completed

A user-friendly inventory system for high-end stock

Some items are of higher value. These therefore require other outlets. For example, consider the platinum product, for which Vintage Cash Cow contacts a more specific auction house.

The question? An easy overview where you can see at a glance which products in which package go to which auction house.

Again, our UX-ers and developers created a clear dashboard for this.

The benefits:

  • Better visibility of income and expenses

  • Real-time price list

  • Directly send ready-to-use PDFs to auction houses

  • All invoices in one place

  • Overview of contact details and auction house purchases
