Fashion Hunters

Meet Tara, Ambria and Karina who are the lifeblood of upscale consignment store Second Time Around, located in New York City. Business is looking up when they consign a $6,000 dress once worn by J-Lo as well as authenticate two dresses potentially made by Carolina Herrera and Oscar de la Renta. They also visit the closet of socialite Eva Jeanbart-Lorenzotti who consigns items that will be worth over $3,000 of merchandise to the store. Plus, the staff will welcome a new employee, Wilson, who is brought in to build out the men's section. But when Wilson criticizes the current state of STA's collection, Ambria lets it be known, "If he's going to talk smack, then he better have the goods to back it up." She's not letting anyone destroy the delicate personality balance or the business of STA.

Wilson does his first consign with several LaQuon Smith pieces brought in by LaQuon’s manager. Ambria decides to throw a Birkin swap party to build relationships with current and potential clients who own these bags worth $10,000 to $100,000. She brings in Birkin Bag expert Michael Tenello to authenticate the bags, but things get tricky when she discovers that one bag owner may have a fake bag. Tara also has her work cut out for her as she tries to persuade a consigner to part with a Gucci leather dress.

Ambria and Tara haggle it out with Karen -- one of their craziest consigners. Meanwhile Ambria gets a call from her ex-boyfriend which sends her into a tailspin. Coincidentally, they have a closet visit with a relationship therapist who not only consigns amazing Donna Karen and Christian Dior pieces, but who also gives Ambria some important relationship advice. Finally Tara and Ambria meet with expert Simon Doonan to ask him to help them price an Issey Miyake suit -- but it turns out the piece has a mysterious history.

Karina, who is known for being pricing challenged, re-prices a piece of Lauren Bacall luggage at a higher price than Tara thought fair. Meanwhile, a consigner brings in two Chanel bags she bought at a garage sale and Ambria and Karina must determine if they are authentic. Karina also sets up a closet visit with the Podiatrist to the Stars who has hundreds of pairs of shoes they are hoping to consign.

It's off to the Hamptons for the weekend! The STA crew consigns with Karina's Hamptons based friend and Jackie Rogers the famous ex Chanel model and designer. They get an Alberto Ferretti skirt and two Jackie Rogers gowns. Ambria gets depressed when she finds that her shopping addiction doesn't mesh at all with her budget. The group's luck turns around when they visit the luxurious mansion of a New York client and end up with a pair of expensive Gucci leather pants designed by Tom Ford.

Karina has to deal with Bentley, a difficult consigner who accuses Karina of trying to cheat her. Meanwhile Wilson is tasked with building out the men's section, but when he brings in a new designer, Erickson Valdez, Tara is less than thrilled with his outlandish pieces. Meanwhile, Karina invites Wilson out for dinner with her family and gets totally embarrassed when he talks about sex in front of her adorable children.
