12 Places Where You Can Resell Vintage Items Online

   I currently use Etsy for my vintage sales because of the traffic it gets; however, it is mostly for crafters and makers. Vintage is a small part. Getting started with Etsy is easy with this compact guide by Etsy. Etsy gives my CousinCircle storefront a cohesive look, and its ecommerce features are excellent. On the down side, Etsy's fees per sale went up in 2018. In addition to paying close attention to the listing tags, I promote my listings by pinning their photos in my business page on Pinterest, and I have a Pattern website through Etsy which made claiming my cousincircle.shop domain easy. It cost $38 to claim the web address, and Etsy charges me $16 per month. I'm not sure it was a good investment, but half of the visitors to my Etsy listings originate on the website. Other choices abound.

For high value antiques and vintage, you probably want to look at RubyLane.com.

While my journey with reselling vintage online actually began when working full-time as an English professor and department chair with bookselling on Amazon and selling used home goods in my community's online classifieds page, since "retiring" I've also used the Facebook marketplace and Nextdoor's classified section for non-vintage items.

Ebay and Shopify are well-known all-purpose storefront options with millions of users.

Also, it seems like an upgrade from Craigslist (if you want to go that route) with apps such as Let Go or Offer Up.

I am often asked where to sell vintage online by people I know or meet. Before making a choice, consider how wide your audience should be and whether you want to have buyers meet you for purchase or whether you prefer shipping your product to them upon payment. Summing up, you can resell vintage online on Etsy, your own website, Ruby Lane, Amazon, Facebook, Nextdoor, Ebay, Shopify, Craigslist, Let Go, Offer Up, or your own community's buy/sell sites. Choose the one that feels right for your level of comfort and expertise and get started!
