About Us
28 Years in Luxury Assets
Fourteen years in Korea. Fourteen years in the United States. Built from the ground up — when luxury resale was still unfamiliar to most people.
How it started
We entered when the reseller market was still new
When Vetoben began in 1998, luxury resale had no playbook — no apps, no global marketplaces, no standard for pricing or authentication. We learned by doing: buying, selling, appraising, and building trust one transaction at a time.
That early entry is our edge today. Category knowledge, market timing, authentication judgment, and client relationships — earned over twenty-eight years across two countries — cannot be copied overnight.
Two countries. One standard.
The expertise built in Korea's emerging resale market powers everything we do in Los Angeles today.

The foundation
From 1998, we worked in a market where luxury resale was still unfamiliar — sourcing, evaluating, and moving designer handbags, watches, and jewelry before the industry had clear rules.
- Pioneer in Korea's early luxury resale market
- Deep expertise across bags, watches, and jewelry
- Judgment forged over thousands of transactions
United States · 14 years
Four stores. One flagship.
We brought that foundation to Los Angeles and grew branch by branch — Koreatown Plaza, Downtown, City Center, Slauson — before uniting every operation under one secured standalone building.
- ~2012 — Koreatown Plaza, our first U.S. boutique
- 2014 — Downtown 7th St & Koreatown City Center
- 2015 — Slauson · 2020 — unified at 645 S Hill St
Los Angeles · 2012 – 2020

Operating the most influential luxury platform in Downtown Los Angeles — built on twenty-eight years of know-how, not a trend.

"We did not inherit this market — we helped build our place in it."
When resale was strange and trust was earned face to face, we were already here. That is why clients come to Vetoben — and why every piece meets the same standard we have held for twenty-eight years.
