Welcome All.
This website marks a new chapter in my life where I try to chase my visions of a universe filled with my interests. There might be times where the website will be down or cluttered so please bear with me.
I started really selling online back in 2016/17 where Open Late© actually used to be called Second Hand Elite, I was given a couple hundred comics from my father and I just never stopped, peaking at buying around 300 comics a month from collectors and hoarders all around Indonesia. 2019 rolls around and I find myself in a new environment; sneakers and vintage. Being and eventually managing with PrimeTime taught me lots and most of what I know now from how retail flows to how to dominate markets and really stand out from the crowd. 2024 and now I live in Bali, different to the big city and i'll admit I'm still adjusting, and I may truly never adjust and I might run back to the city once all my businesses are in order. But I've started
QUESTIONS I PONDER TO MYSELF:
Whats
Why Open Late© ? : I work late nights + I need order in the clutter of work
WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO SELL? : I'm deeply inspired by Vivienne Westwood's (I believe) Worlds End store, she changed the store front to reflect her mood and her current focus as seen below:

From showcasing repairs to selling my own collection of curated goods to making goods garments, sculptures. once i saw what Virgil Abloh did with https://canary---yellow.com/. I absolutely never stopped thinking about where I wanted to go with all my work. Like Virgil I'd love to balance working on 1000 things at once and working all through Whatsapp, I'm not there yet but ill get there.
On Repeat and currently at 724 Plays:
peace.
