About Us

This About Us page describes Nearby Clothes, a local marketplace application available on mobile devices and web browsers, together with any related services operated by Sushmitha K N (collectively, the "Application"). Sushmitha K N is referred to in this page as the "Service Provider."

Who We Are

Nearby Clothes is a community-focused marketplace for buying, selling, and donating clothing and fashion items near you. We help people in the same area connect so they can find great deals without shipping, meet locally, and give pre-loved clothes a second life.

The Application is designed for individuals clearing out their wardrobe, buyers looking for affordable fashion nearby, and local clothing shops that want a simple way to reach customers in their area.

Our Mission

To make second-hand fashion easy, affordable, and sustainable by helping communities trade clothes within their neighbourhood — reducing waste while keeping fashion accessible to everyone.

What You Can Do

For buyers

• Browse nearby listings based on your location and country.
• Explore items on a map or by category (Men, Women, Kids, Shoes, Bags, Ethnic wear, Sports, Accessories, and more).
• Search and filter by price, condition, size, color, brand, and distance.
• Save favorites and follow sellers to see their new items.
• Chat with sellers, send offers, and contact them by phone or WhatsApp.
• Rate sellers after your experience to help build trust in the community.

For sellers

• List items in minutes with photos, price, size, color, brand, and condition details.
• Choose to sell or donate items for free.
• Manage listings as active, paused, or sold.
• Build a seller profile with bio, banner, and social links.

For local clothing shops

• Register as a business account and request verification.
• Display a verified badge, shop location on the map, opening hours, and shop photos.
• Reach nearby buyers who are already browsing for fashion in your area.

How Nearby Clothes Works

Nearby Clothes is a connection platform. We help buyers and sellers find each other, communicate, and arrange local meet-ups or pickups.

Important: Nearby Clothes is not a payment processor or delivery company. Prices, payment methods, item condition, and handover details are agreed directly between buyer and seller. The Service Provider is not a party to transactions between users.

Why Local Matters

Unlike nationwide marketplaces that rely on couriers and shipping fees, Nearby Clothes is built around location:

• Listings are shown based on distance from you.
• You can choose a different area to browse if you are travelling or shopping elsewhere.
• Prices appear in your local currency based on your selected country.
• Meeting nearby is faster, cheaper, and better for the environment.

Trust & Safety

We work to keep the Application safe and useful for everyone:

• Users can report listings that appear misleading, inappropriate, or prohibited.
• The Service Provider may remove listings, restrict accounts, or ban users who violate community guidelines or receive valid reports.
• Seller and buyer ratings help the community make informed decisions.
• Verified business shops go through an admin review before a verification badge is shown.

For questions about account restrictions, contact info@nearbyclothes.com.

Sustainability

Every item sold or donated through Nearby Clothes is one less garment sent to landfill. By trading locally, our community:

• Extends the life of clothing and accessories.
• Reduces packaging and transport emissions.
• Makes fashion more affordable for students, families, and budget-conscious shoppers.

Platforms

Nearby Clothes is available as:

• A mobile app for Android and iOS.
• A web application at nearbyclothes.com.

Your account, listings, and messages work across both platforms when you sign in with the same credentials.
