Lengthy Process: Your clothing could take months or weeks to sell and the more time your clothes are on ThredUp, the more they are discounted and the less money you get. Payment is contingent on the selling price which is based on the brand and category of the item.Įasy : All you need to do is ship the package of your old clothes and waitĬustomizable: Unlike other shops, you can adjust the price of your items if you think the quality or brand warrants a higher priceĬlothing Recycling Program: Though good for the planet, if your clothes are not accepted, ThredUp will recycle your clothes, so make sure you won’t miss any of the items you send After 60 or 90 days of being on the website, your item is expected to be sold, and after 28 days, you will receive payment. After the item is listed on the site, you have 12 hours to edit the price, and after that another 12 hour period to allow for bidding, when you cannot change the price. The items will then be appraised and prepared to be sold on the website. After you create a ThredUp account, you can request a shipping label to mail a package of your clothes, though you must provide either a shipping envelope or box. How it Works : ThredUp accepts men’s, women’s, and children’s clothing, shoes, and accessories. A lot of their clothes are geared toward teenagers, so the items may not appeal to all buyers. Sub-Par Inventory : Since they are more lax about brand names and quality, some of their items are not well curated or worth the price. Not Very Picky: In my experience of selling at Plato’s Closet, they will take clothing from nearly any brand or year, so long as it is in remotely good conditionĬhain Store : As mentioned before, Plato’s Closet is a franchise, so if they do not buy some of your items at one location, you can take them to another location and try again Plato’s Closet is a franchise, so each location has different rules for what brands they will buy, what year the clothes must be manufactured in, as well as what percent of the sales price you will get back in cash so make sure to call the location to sort these details out before your appointment They will appraise them then offer you cash or store credit. How it Works : Bring your gently used men’s and women’s clothes, shoes, bags, and accessories into a store, no appointment necessary. Low Inventory: Most of their stores are quite small, so they may not buy all of your clothes simply because they do not have the space Very Picky: Buffalo Exchange is very peculiar about the brand, quality, and age of the items they take, so trying to get money for that designer piece from 5 or 6 years ago may be difficult Good Trade-in Opportunity: Buffalo Exchange has a lot of current, trendy pieces and well taken care of sneakers, so cashing in your store credit is no trouble They also charge a decent amount for their clothes, so that 25% in cash can actually equal a decent sum of money. Good Payout: Buffalo Exchange pays you on the spot for your clothes, no need to wait for them to sell like at a consignment store. After appraising your clothes, they will immediately give you 25% of the selling price of the items they took in cash, or 50% of the selling price in store credit. To start selling, you need to book an appointment on their website for whatever location is closest to you. They usually only accept trendy items from the last couple years from brands like Urban Outfitters, Zara, and ASOS. How it Works : Buffalo Exchange buys men’s and women’s clothing, shoes, and accessories.
