American Express Co. and vente-privee.com have launched a joint venture website featuring member-only sales of luxury goods from European and American designers, the companies announced Nov. 9.
The French online retailer vente-privee.com specializes in selling overstocked designer items. The first deal it is offering through the venture with Amex is for items from French clothing designer Paul & Joe Sister.
Amex is giving its existing cardholders incentives to shop at vente-privee.com, including a $20 statement credit for their first purchase before the end of the year.
