# Vestiaire Collective MCP > Vestiaire Collective MCP connects your AI agent directly to a global luxury fashion marketplace. Use it to search for specific items, analyze real-time price trends for brands like Chanel or Hermès, and manage detailed inventory listings all in one conversation. ## Overview - **Category:** ecommerce - **Price:** Free - **Tags:** luxury-resale, marketplace, inventory-search, fashion-retail, authenticated-goods, product-catalog ## Description Managing a high-end resale business involves constant research—checking market values, tracking brand availability, and verifying item details across multiple tabs. This MCP handles that complexity, letting your agent act as a dedicated luxury consultant for your entire operation. You can go beyond simple searching; you analyze the data itself. Need to know if vintage Chanel Flap Bags are currently undervalued? Your agent pulls historical pricing to give you actionable insights on market value. Want to list an item but aren't sure what condition details to include? You get full metadata retrieval for things like material, size, and price history vs. new. The platform runs everything through Vinkius AI Analytics, so you always know exactly which data points flowed through the system and how your budget is being used—no blind spots. It turns hours of manual browsing and spreadsheet tracking into a few conversational prompts. You manage inventory, find rare pieces for clients, or simply check market health without ever leaving your preferred AI client. ## Tools ### analyze_price_trends Analyzes how the resale value for a specific luxury brand or product category has changed over time. ### get_item_details Retrieves comprehensive data on an item, including its material, condition rating, and price history compared to new retail prices. ### list_available_brands Lists all major luxury brands available in the Vestiaire Collective catalog (e.g., Hermès, Chanel). ### list_catalog_categories Lists all major product categories, such as bags, shoes, clothing, or jewelry. ### list_available_designers Retrieves a list of designers and collections currently listed on the platform. ### list_my_selling_items Shows a list of items you currently have listed in your personal inventory. ### search_by_brand Searches for luxury goods using a specified brand and an optional category filter. ### search_with_advanced_filters Runs highly specific searches using multiple filters like brand, condition, color, and material. ### search_luxury_items Performs a general search of the catalog using descriptive keywords, such as 'Chanel tweed'. ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` Search for vintage Hermès Birkin bags in very good condition under 15000 EUR. ``` **Response:** ``` I found 5 vintage Hermès Birkin bags matching your criteria.

Instead of setting the price arbitrarily, your agent runs `analyze_price_trends` to see how similar pairs have sold in the last six months. It confirms that 'Very Good' condition items are currently fetching 15% more than you expected. ### Finding a Rare Client Piece A client needs a specific type of bag and color, but can’t name the brand. You use `search_luxury_items` with descriptive keywords ('emerald green structured shoulder bag') to pull up possibilities from brands you wouldn't normally search for. ### Auditing Your Own Inventory You need a full status report on your current inventory. You run `list_my_selling_items` and get an immediate breakdown, noting which items are 'Pending Authentication' and which ones have high view counts. ### Defining Search Parameters You want to find all Chanel pieces under $2000. Instead of relying on vague keywords, you use `search_with_advanced_filters` specifying 'Brand: Chanel,' 'Price Range: Max $2000,' and 'Category: Bags' for precision. ## Benefits - Stop guessing on pricing. `analyze_price_trends` gives you real data showing if a piece is peaking in demand or falling out of favor. - Never forget an item's specs. Use `get_item_details` to instantly pull condition reports, materials, and price comparisons for any listing. - Quickly scope your search using `list_catalog_categories` and `list_available_brands` before diving into specific items. - `search_with_advanced_filters` lets you combine multiple criteria (e.g., 'Red' AND 'Leather' AND 'Under $1k') without writing complex code. - Keep track of your side hustle using `list_my_selling_items`, getting an immediate overview of everything you have listed right now. ## How It Works The bottom line is you get an automated, conversational interface to a complex e-commerce backend. 1.

The `list_my_selling_items` tool allows your AI agent to pull a list of all items you currently have for sale in your Vestiaire Collective dressing room, along with their current status and metadata, helping you stay organized without manual tracking. **How can I find out the resale value of a luxury bag?** Ask your agent to analyze price trends using the `analyze_price_trends` tool. Provide the brand and category, and it will surface historical price data and market trends, helping you decide on the best listing price for your item or identifying investment opportunities. **Is it possible to filter search results by item condition or material?** Absolutely. Use the `search_with_advanced_filters` tool to narrow down results by brand, category, condition (e.g., never worn, very good), price range, color, material, and even the country of the seller for more localized results. **How can I use `get_item_details` to verify an item's condition, material, and authentication status?** The tool pulls full metadata for any listing. You get key details like the material composition, exact condition report, and whether it has a price history vs. its original retail cost. **What if I want to start by browsing all available luxury brands using `list_available_brands`?** Running this tool gives you a comprehensive list of major designers, like Hermès and Chanel. This is the best way to see which high-end brands have items currently listed on the platform. **If I know both the brand and the general category, should I use `search_by_brand`?** Yes, that's much more precise than a simple keyword search. Using `search_by_brand` narrows the results immediately by combining specific brands with defined product categories. **What happens if my attempt to run `search_luxury_items` fails due to rate limits?** The agent will report a rate limit error. You simply wait a short period and try the query again. The platform handles throttling, so just pause your requests for a few minutes. **What is the best way to find out all the types of items available on Vestiaire Collective?** You run `list_catalog_categories`. This tool provides an immediate breakdown of every general category, covering everything from shoes and bags to accessories and jewelry.
