We all have a pair we wanna own under any circumstance, even if it’s an already used pair. Or, you own kicks that you wore a few times but they’re just not it anymore so you wanna flip them for some extra cash? Well, today we’re gonna take a look at where to buy and sell used sneakers! While it’s easier said than done, there’s always a way to flip pre-loved kicks. So, here’s a list of all the places that will come in handy when you decide to flip your kicks!
Where to Sell Used Sneakers and Buy Them?
It’s no secret that the sneaker industry is on a constant road to growth. However, you don’t always have the means to cop the kicks in retail, nor the financial means. Another scenario is that you might already own the kicks, but you don’t wear them anymore. If they’re in a good enough condition, you have the chance to flip those kicks. So, here are the best places to buy and sell used sneakers!
Poshmark
This is one of the best online platforms where you can buy and sell used sneakers. And you can actually find some very interesting kicks there! However, the site isn’t sneaker-exclusive because you can flip clothes, accessories, and even makeup there. When it comes to fees, sneakers (or anything over $15) will have a 20% fee on them!
Grailed
Another website where you can find… drumroll… grails. Whether you want new or old sneakers, you will find them there. Moreover, you’ll find some pretty elusive sneakers and streetwear items there! If you wanna sell your kicks, you’ll pay a 9% commission fee, and nothing if you’re a buyer.
Klekt
If you have an interest in the European sneaker market and wanna sell your kicks, Klekt is it. Just like the platform we already mentioned, Klekt offers both new and used sneakers up for grabs. And if you wanna sell kicks on there, there’s a 17% commission fee! The site also has its own fee calculator so you can estimate how much you should list your kicks for.
eBay
If you’re new to the industry, here’s a fun fact about eBay. It’s actually one of the first places where people went to resell kicks. From the rise of Air Jordans to sneaker resale becoming an industry of its own, eBay was there along the way. So, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that it’s on the list of the best places to sell used sneakers!
Facebook Marketplace
You see, you’re not old if you use Facebook Marketplace. On the contrary, it’s a budget-friendly platform where you can find used sneakers. And well, if you grow your client base, you can totally make some serious profit. The best thing about Facebook Marketplace though? It’s that it’s totally free for sellers!
