In the last twelve months, the sector that had the highest price adjustments was clothing, with an
increase of almost 80%
since April of last year.
In addition to this context, the recent exit from the Now 12 category and the new
restrictions
on stores and shopping malls were added, which further complicated the situation.
In search of alternatives under the motto "save money without dispensing with good quality", in
Argentina
the
buying and selling of used clothing
from
leading brands
through online stores
began to gain relevance
.
The
pandemic
has accelerated a longstanding global undercurrent.
The new impulse stems from greater environmental awareness, the
economic need
resulting from the crisis and the arrival of new generations of consumers accustomed to
the digital world
and the
exchange of products
.
The following portals
e-commerce
They only offer
luxury brands
or
brands
that are not sold in the country and that previously went through a selection process that confirms their good condition. They stand

, among the international ones.
Most of these sites, intended for
women, men and children,
highlight that you can
save between 50% and 70%
, if you compare the price with these same new garments.
How do you buy from a used clothing website?
The operation is similar to that of any shopping website.
A user is created, the product is chosen and added to the
shopping cart
.
Then, you must select the means of payment that (can be with credit or debit card, bank transfer, Rapipago, Easy Payment or MercadoPago), and clarify how you will want to receive the product (at home or at a branch of Correo Argentino or OCA).
Some of the portals give the ability to track clothing online.

Sell used clothes and earn extra money
Another
available
alternative
to these e-commerce is to
earn money by
selling clothing
that is in disuse from recognized brands and in perfect condition.
If you are going to bet on this option, you will not have to worry about much more than meeting the
requirements
.
Generally, these companies ask that it not be stained or torn, unstitched or repaired clothing, nor underwear or bathing suits.
And as long as it coincides with the season of the year of the present moment.
How do I sell used clothing that I no longer use?
In some shops ask the pictures sent clothes being interested / or sell, others however prefer to
see the goods in person
.
After selecting them, they define which ones will be displayed on the website.
Then the price they will pay for the garments is informed taking into account the brands, models and style.
If both parties agree, you can choose to receive the
money in cash
or
leave it on consignment
and then use it as part of payment for purchases of other items.
