When selling personal items such as clothing, handbags, shoes, and even jewelry online, there are several things to consider: trustworthiness, popularity, and fee structure of the marketplace, for example. Here are a few options for websites that boast a reputation for superior buyer AND seller satisfaction.
#1: Poshmark
Poshmark allows users to set up “closets” for potential buyers to shop. The buyer pays for shipping costs, and if you have a knack for arranging your items with editorial flair, then name your price and cash in!
#2: The Real Real
The Real Real is a luxury consignment portal that ensures each designer item is authenticated. This resource allows users to buy and sell designer clothing, jewelry, handbags, and even art! Best of all, you get to keep 85% of your sales profit. Not bad!
#3: ThredUP
If you have a large quantity of items to sell, but not much time, then ThredUP may be your best bet. ThredUP sends an empty bag for you to fill with the items you want to resell. It ships back for free and, according to Teen Vogue, “they’ll take it from there. The convenience means that sellers take a lower cut, earning a maximum of 80% of the resale price, but the no-fuss process makes it super easy.”
