New listings in New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago and 217 more cities (and the next cities as we add them), calls that just closed, vetted brand picks for buyers, and pitch notes from the other side of the counter. Sent as a short email occasionally while we're new, and growing into a weekly list as more shops and brands sign up — so we only email when there's a batch worth your inbox.
