Introduction
Arcavindi is an online platform specializing in purchasing old and unused vintage goods such as jewelry, watches, coins, medals, and cameras. Consumers send their valuable items free of charge in a single shipping box, after which they are assessed by a team of specialized appraisers. Upon approval, the consumer receives payment within 24 hours.
The company positions itself as a simple, safe, and sustainable way to convert hidden value into cash, giving products a second life within an international trading network.
Within this business model, speed is essential. The faster a consumer receives the shipping package after requesting it, the greater the chance that the box will actually be shipped. Conversion is therefore directly influenced by logistical execution.
To organize this process daily, in a controlled, and scalable manner, Arcavindi collaborates with Mailit4u.
