12 Best Sites to Sell Clothes Online for Cash (2024 Update)

If your closet contains clothes you haven’t worn for at least the last 6 months (whether you’re a man or a woman,) you may want to consider selling some of them.

Thanks to the internet, it is now much easier than ever to get the most cash for your clothes.

It used to be that you had to find consignment stores near you to sell your clothes to, or if you could wait, you’d set up a yard sale, which is not a bad choice, even today.

But selling on the internet is much easier, plus it provides more benefits.

You can reach a much bigger market.

You can, in many cases, get more money for the same piece.

Obviously, we’re not talking about your worn-out Walmart bought clothes. The market prefers designer labels and “gently used”.

But most people have something in their closets that they no longer wear, and that someone else would enjoy.

Where to Sell Clothes Online for the Most Money

Here are a few ways that you can use the Internet to help you replace your old clothes with cash.

1. ThredUP

• Official site for sellers: https://www.thredup.com/cleanout
• ThredUp app for Android
• ThredUp app for iOS

This site started as a place to sell outgrown kids clothes, but it’s branched out now to include women’s clothing and accessories.

Still, the main market is for kids’ clothing as they grow up, and more than 2 million users attest to the site’s usefulness.

Major brands that are featured on the site include J.Crew, Free People, and Anthropologie. They also have items from Moxie, Jacadi, and Merrell.

They do accept some less expensive clothes, such as those from Old Navy.

Typically, you’ll see clothes advertised at about 70% of the original price. If items don’t sell, they can be donated to charity.

You can use their Payout Estimator to get an idea of how much cash you can expect for your clothes.

2. LePrix (former SnobSwap)

• Official site for sellers: https://leprix.com/consign/apply

This is an online designer consignment boutique perfect for those who want to sell pre-owned designer fashion items.

Besides clothes, you can also sell designer handbags, shoes, accessories and even men clothing.

To sell with them, you have two options. You can either apply to consign with a Certified Boutique Partner near you or if they don’t have any certified boutique partner near you, you can their White Glove consignment service where they send you a free consignment kit along with a pre-paid shipping label to ship your items so they can be sold.

The company has a zero-tolerance policy for counterfeit items. So every item they receive gets authenticated by their experts before being listed for sale.

3. TheRealReal

• Official site for sellers: https://www.therealreal.com/consign
• TheRealReal app for Android
• TheRealReal app for iOS

This site is similar to LePrixin in that they also focus on consigning luxury brands such as Louis Vuitton, Cartier and Gucci.

Its name comes from the fact that it, too, will validate every item it offers to make sure it’s authentic, before listing it.

TheRealReal claims to have 4 million member sellers and estimates that they each average about $8500 per year in sales.

Items can go for anything from $150 up to $20,000.

4. Grailed

• Official site for sellers: https://www.grailed.com/
• Grailed app for Android
• Grailed app for iOS

While most sites and apps listed here focus on selling women’s and children’s clothing, Grailed is set up specifically and exclusively for men.

You can sell any men’s fashion including shoes and sneakers from brands like Supreme, Rick Owens, Raf Simons, Saint Laurent and Jordan.

The buyers’ demographic includes men in their 20s looking for casual and streetwear items.

Their average product sells for around $100.

5. Poshmark

• Official site for sellers: https://poshmark.com/sell
• Poshmark app for Android
• Poshmark app for iOS

Poshmark is one of the biggest and best apps for selling fashion.

It boasts about 800,000 sellers and 1 million buyers.

But the feature of it is the social interaction, with buyers and sellers “following” each other, and commenting on and rating the goods.

Look on this site for brands such as Tory Burch and Michael Kors, though you can find higher price items such as Chanel and lower price such as H&M.

6. Tradesy

• Official site for sellers: https://www.tradesy.com/sell-landing/
• Tradesy app for Android
• Tradesy app for iOS

The concept of Tradesy is to make it easier for sellers to sell slightly used clothes online.

Once again, it tends to deal in the upmarket brands such as Chanel, Louis Vuitton, and Yves St Laurent.

Tradesy will help you by suggesting a selling price, which tends to be around 65% of retail, and will also handle the shipping and any returns within a 9% commission.

7. Storenvy

• Official site for sellers: http://www.storenvy.com/open-a-store

Another twist on the more common selling websites. Storenvy encourages you to set up your own store under its auspices.

The store is free to set up and you can get your own domain for $4.99 per month.

You’re free to sell new or used goods in your store. Buyers may like or “envy” your products, and buy them.

Storenvy takes care of tracking all your sales, your visitors, search engine terms, and even referring affiliates, using your store’s dashboard.

8. ReFashioner

• Official site for sellers: http://refashioner.com

This is another website with an emphasis on the community while still encouraging buying, selling or even swapping clothing.

You start by creating your own “closet” which you can populate with photographs of the things you are intending to sell.

ReFashioner lets you know if the goods are accepted or rejected, and if they are accepted suggests an appropriate price.

Anytime you sell something, you have the option of leaving the money in your account rather than taking it as cash, which allows you to buy something else, effectively swapping your clothes.

9. Vaunte

Update: The company has changed direction and is now a site publishing fashion related content.

An upmarket site, Vaunte lists the brands that it finds acceptable, and only accepts goods from those name brands. However, there are about 400 brands on the list.

When you upload your products, Vaunte will check them for acceptance, and approve them for sale.

It has a daily newsletter, and you may even find yourself the subject of a feature article if there’s something special about your closet.

The price of this exclusivity is a commission of 15%, and you won’t be paid until about a month after the buyer receives and approves the purchase, so you shouldn’t use this site if you want some quick cash.

Other Places You Can Sell Your Clothes

The sites mentioned above are all specialty sites, a kind of online consignment stores if you wish.

But you can also use social media sites and good old classified sites to get rid of some of your wardrobes.

Here are a few places you should definitely consider.

Instagram

You may wonder why Instagram is listed here, as is not generally looked on as a place to sell clothes online.

But you have to realize that all the sites above have to charge a commission in order to operate – as much as 15%, as you can see, for Vaunte.com – and that means less money in your pocket.

So many people have taken to advertising clothes for sale on Instagram using the hashtag #shopmycloset.

In fact, there are more than 1 million posts under that hashtag.

All people do is post photos of their clothing for sale, and accept offers that are entered in the comments.

Facebook

In a similar way, you can use Facebook to sell many different things.

You have to pay attention to Facebook and group rules when posting your items for sale to groups.

It’s best to look for local groups so that you can eliminate the shipping costs and hassle by simply meeting the buyer.

Craigslist

Another site to sell unwanted items is Craigslist, and you can advertise in the local listings for your area. You can list items for sale for free, and post pictures.

Whenever you don’t know who you’re dealing with, you should be careful. Arrange to meet in a public place where the sale can take place in the open. There have been many examples of scammers using Craigslist to con people out of their money, so beware.

Takeaway

As you can see, there is no need for you to limit your market to local clothing consignment stores if you want to sort out your closet.

Depending on what you want to sell, try one or more of the methods above to cash in on your clothes.
