about us
flip resale clothing co. is a sole proprietorship that is owned and operated by Sheri Oberstein. Born in the Boston area, Sheri adopted her love for the creative arts at an early age and had taken up modeling, performing, acting and pageantry. Upon graduation, she visited, then later resided for the next twenty years in San Francisco, CA., where she attended SF City College and worked in her field of study of retail managment and merchandising for such stores as I'magnin, Kenneth Cole and Sacha London Shoes. She'd also operated her own full-scale production company, producing over 25 fashion shows and events for various venues all over the city, and having networked a base of nearly 1000 clients and associates. After starting a family in 2000, she opened her first resale clothing shoppe in the college town of Davis, CA., called Go Fish Recycled Clothing Co. She moved her family to Venice, Fl., five years later and has since opened another, changing the name to flip and relocating twice.
The newest flipresaleclothingco. is clean, modern and refreshing with merchandising that is simplistic and easily understood. The product is exciting and colorful and overall flirty, pleasing most women of all ages and sizes.
