There are more places to sell secondhand clothes than ever — and more ways to waste time listing on the wrong one. This is a straightforward ranking of the best apps to sell secondhand clothes in 2026, based on fees, buyer audience, and what actually moves.
No app is the best for every item or every seller. The goal here is to tell you which one fits your situation fastest.

1. Vinted — Best for Zero-Fee Selling
If you want to keep the most money from every sale, Vinted is the answer. It charges sellers nothing — no listing fee, no commission. The buyer pays a small buyer protection fee (roughly 5% plus a fixed amount), which means your sticker price is what you actually receive.
Vinted is strongest in the UK and across Europe (France, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands). The buyer base skews toward practical shoppers — they're searching by brand, size, and category rather than browsing by aesthetic. This makes Vinted ideal for:
- High-street brands (Zara, H&M, Next, M&S, Topshop)
- Workwear and basics
- Kids' and baby clothing
- Sports and activewear from mainstream brands
Shipping is platform-integrated in most markets: you print a label, drop it off. No negotiating postage prices with buyers. For sellers who find that conversation annoying, Vinted removes it entirely.
The downside: Vinted's visual presentation culture is more transactional than editorial. If you're trying to build a brand or sell items that need context to be understood, the platform doesn't reward that effort the way Depop does.
Use Vinted if: You're in the UK or Europe, clearing everyday wardrobe staples, and want to keep 100% of your asking price.
2. Depop — Best for Vintage and Trendy Pieces
Depop is where buyers actively hunt for things. They're not just searching by size — they're searching by decade, aesthetic, and brand mythology. If your item has character, Depop's buyer base will find it.
The platform charges sellers 10% commission on the sale price. That's not nothing, but for the right items it's worth it. A vintage Levi's jacket or a rare Nike colourway will sell faster on Depop, at a higher price, than anywhere else. The same item on Vinted might sit unlisted for weeks because Vinted's buyers aren't looking for it.
What sells well on Depop:
- Vintage clothing (anything pre-2000s does especially well)
- Branded streetwear (Carhartt, Champion, Stüssy, Adidas)
- Y2K, 90s, and 00s fashion
- One-of-a-kind or customised pieces
- Premium denim (Levi's, Wrangler, Nudie)
Presentation matters on Depop more than any other platform. Buyers browse profiles and follow accounts. A styled photo, consistent backgrounds, and a coherent shop identity drive ongoing sales — not just one-off purchases. It's more work, but it's also the only platform on this list where you can genuinely build a following and turn reselling into a repeatable income stream.
Use Depop if: You're selling vintage, streetwear, or anything with visual/aesthetic appeal, and you're willing to put effort into how things look.
3. Poshmark — Best for US and Canadian Sellers
Poshmark has a loyal US buyer base that other apps struggle to replicate for certain categories — especially mid-range to higher-end women's fashion, activewear, and contemporary designer labels. The platform functions partly as a social network: sellers "share" their own and others' listings to stay visible in feeds, and buyers interact with sellers more conversationally than on European apps.
The fees are steep: Poshmark takes $2.95 flat on sales under $15 and 20% on everything above. That's the highest commission on this list. For a $50 sale, you pocket $40. For a $20 blouse, you get $16. Run those numbers before pricing.
Shipping is handled via a prepaid Poshmark label at a flat rate — simple, but the buyer pays a fixed shipping fee regardless of item weight or distance, which can put buyers off on lower-priced items.
Use Poshmark if: You're in the US or Canada and selling mid-to-high-end women's fashion or activewear where buyers are specifically shopping.
4. Facebook Marketplace — Best for Local and Bulky Items
Facebook Marketplace has no fees for local sales. Zero. You arrange pickup and handle cash or transfer directly with the buyer. This makes it uniquely suited for things that are expensive or impractical to ship — a winter coat, a bag of mixed kids' clothes, a box of shoes.
The shipped selling option exists and charges 5%, but the real value is local. Facebook's scale means there are buyers within driving distance for almost anything. The downside is that you're dealing with the general public, including buyers who ghost, negotiate aggressively after agreeing a price, or ask to pay half upfront.
For clothing specifically, Facebook Marketplace works best for bundles, larger items (outerwear, formalwear), and casual pieces where you'd rather sell quickly at a lower price than wait weeks on a specialist app.
Use Facebook Marketplace if: You want a quick local sale, you're selling in bulk, or your item is too big to ship economically.
5. eBay — Best for Niche, Electronics, and Rare Items
eBay is often overlooked for everyday secondhand clothing, but it's the right call for specific categories: vintage tech accessories, trainers with a collector following, sports jerseys, formal occasions wear, and anything where the buyer knows the exact model or product name and will search for it.
Fees average around 13% plus payment processing, but eBay's search volume is enormous — it's the first place many buyers go for specific, hard-to-find items. If you're selling a pair of 2004 Nike Air Forces in a rare colourway, eBay buyers will pay a premium that Vinted or Depop buyers won't.
Use eBay if: You're selling specific, searchable items — rare trainers, vintage sportswear, electronics accessories — where price-sensitive search matters more than visual browsing.
Which App Should You Start With?
The practical answer for most people doing a wardrobe clear-out: start with Vinted for everyday items and add Depop for anything vintage, branded, or unusual. Those two cover 80% of what most people have to sell, at the best combination of fees and audience.
From there, the tedious part is writing a good title and description for every item. That's where a tool like Parlo saves real time — you upload a photo, and it generates a ready-to-copy listing title, description, and price estimate in seconds. Useful when you're cross-listing the same jacket to three different apps and don't want to rewrite it each time.
Cross-listing across two or three platforms isn't as much work as it sounds once you have the listing copy ready. Just remember to remove or mark items as sold once they go — nothing frustrates a buyer more than buying something that was already sold elsewhere.
The Short Version
- Vinted = best fees, best for everyday brands, strongest in UK/Europe
- Depop = best for vintage and visual items, worth the 10% for the right pieces
- Poshmark = right for US sellers in certain categories despite high fees
- Facebook Marketplace = best for local, bulky, or quick sales
- eBay = best for rare, specific, searchable items
Pick the platform your items belong on, not the one you happen to have installed. It makes a bigger difference than any amount of optimising your listing copy.
