About this listen

Closet Full of Cash is a podcast dedicated to pulling back the curtain on the luxury resale industry. Hosted by Deanna Thompson, an author, luxury resale educator, advisor, and former multi-store owner with over two decades of experience, the show goes beyond headlines and hype to break down what’s really happening in the secondary luxury market.

Each episode explores the real mechanics of luxury resale, pricing, sourcing, authentication, margins, business strategy, market shifts, and the growing impact of technology, AI, and counterfeits. You’ll hear honest conversations with founders, resellers, authenticators, and industry professionals who are actively building, scaling, and navigating the pre-owned luxury space.

This isn’t a show about just reselling pre-owned luxury, it’s about understanding the business, the risks, the opportunities, and the realities of an industry that’s rapidly evolving. Whether you’re a resale business owner, an industry professional, or someone curious about how luxury resale truly works behind the scenes, Closet Full of Cash delivers clear insights, practical knowledge, and straight talk you won’t find anywhere else.

    Feb 16 2026

    "Hello and welcome to Closet Full of Cash, I’m your host, Deanna Thompson." Luxury resale isn’t a trend, it’s a global, multi-billion dollar industry, and it’s growing fast. Here is where we’ll go beyond the headlines to break down what’s really happening inside the luxury resale world, the news, the strategy, and the conversations most people never get access to.

    From pricing and sourcing to authentication, margins, business strategy, and the headlines shaping the industry, you’ll hear candid, truthful conversations with founders, resellers, authenticators, and insiders who are building, scaling, and evolving the pre-owned luxury space.

    A little about me. I’ve worked across authentication and wholesale, I’ve owned two luxury resale businesses, along with being an author, educator, advisor, and mentor. After more than twenty years in this industry, I’ve seen this industry evolve in many ways, but nothing like today. With misinformation, AI, and counterfeits flooding the market, it’s time to set the record straight and share the truth about luxury resale, one of the most important categories in fashion.

    Whether you’ve been in luxury resale for years, are just getting started, or are simply curious about why this industry is exploding, Closet Full of Cash was created for you. Welcome!
