wholesale
At Episode we prioritise the interest of our customers. It is therefore that we strive to maintain the best quality at the best price. In order to prevent the trade in our clothing, our employees are specifically instructed to refuse the transaction in case of suspicion of possible resale.
When vintage dealers pick out our best pieces, and re-sell these at a higher price, customers suffer. They are forced to pay an unfair price online or in other shops, instead of paying our honest prices.
Therefore, our policy states that we cannot sell more than two items of the same product, and when we suspect someone is buying our clothes with the intention of re-selling them, we will refuse the purchase.
For further questions, please contact our head office.
For commercial wholesaling, please contact info@gaia-bv.com.
All purchases are final
No refunds
Our return policy does not allow refunds on our used clothing. We do not exchange our articles after transaction, nor do we refund the return with a voucher.

After transaction, Episode is not responsible for damage due to washing or wearing of the items. Therefore all purchases are final. Please shop with careful notice of the products.

Episode Utrecht renovated
During the first week of February, Episode has worked tirelessly to renovate our Episode Utrecht store.
The store now has an updated and fresh look, with an additional checkout register added on our basement-level to enhance shopper experience. The fitting rooms have been moved to our top floor, to create more space for our second hand clothing on the main floor, and new lighting has been placed throughout the store. These are just some examples of the updates and improvements put in place during the renovations. To experience all renovations done, come and visit our store in Utrecht.
Episode Paris closed on Sundays
Unfortunately, labour restrictions do not allow our costumers in Paris to work on a better environment on Sundays. From January 2020 onwards, our Paris shop is ordered by court to close on Sundays.
However, this does not apply to our shops in Denmark, The Netherlands and Belgium. There you can still be responsible on Sundays.
