SELL WITH BOUNCE MKT
FAQ
What items does Bounce Mkt buy?
We buy secondhand clothing for kids up through size 10 and shoes up to 1Y.
Clothing must be in excellent, ready-to-wear condition. We cannot accept clothing with any visible wear, including damage,
stains, fading, and pilling.
Note, we’re extremely selective on infant clothing under 12 months. We're looking for special pieces from high-quality brands
only. We cannot accept basics and/or items from value brands in these sizes as we don't have the demand for it.
Across all sizes, we’re more likely to accept items from better brands.
How do pay-outs work?
We buy outright, so you receive your pay-out once you accept our offer (typically a few days after dropping off) – regardless of if/when the item sells or if it is sold at a discounted price.
The pay-out amount is based on the listing price; sellers receive 30% of the price that we'd originally list the item at in our shop.
If sellers have a pay-out that is $30 or more, and they opt to take it as store credit, they will receive a 10% bonus.
Pay-outs can be sent via Venmo or check. You can also opt to have the pay-out as store credit.
Which brands are accepted?
We’re more likely to accept better brands – think Gap and above. Some of our favorite brands include Adidas, Boden, Crewcuts,
Hanna Andersson, Janie & Jack, Lola & The Boys, Magnetic Me, North Face, Patagonia, Pink Chicken, Pixie Lane, Ralph Lauren, Rylee & Cru, Tea Collection, Vineyard Vines, and Zara.
Value brands unlikely to be accepted. For items from these brands to be accepted, they must be truly exceptional and in like-new condition. Value brands that we're less
likely to accept include Art Class, Carters, Cat and Jack, Cherokee, Crazy 8, Gerber, H&M, Jumping Beans, Old Navy, The Children’s Place and Wonder Nation.
Do clothes need to be laundered to be accepted?
Yes, please! We only accept items that are ready to go on the racks.
Are there limits on seasonality?
We prioritize in-season items as we have very limited storage space. If there is an
off-season item from one of our most in-demand brands, we may be able to make
an exception if it’s truly special.
How do drop-offs work?
If you have 25 items or less you're welcome to drop off anytime we’re open. We will then take a few days to review items and email over an offer.
If you have more than 25 items, please email to make an appointment.
When dropping off, please be sure to secure
your items fully in a bag.
Please note that, currently, we’re unable to do local pick-ups or accept items via mail (unless seller pays for shipping).
How many items can be dropped off?
Yes, we ask that you limit drop-offs to a maximum of 25 items. If you’d like to sell more items at a time, please email hello@bouncemkt.com to set up an appointment.
Why might an item not be accepted?
Reasons that we may not buy a given item include:
- Signs of wear or damage (even if minor!);
- Item isn't what our customers look to us for; and
- We have too many similar items in our inventory.
What happens to items not accepted?
If we do not accept an item, you always have
the option to take it back by either picking it up at our shop within 7 days of receiving the offer. Alternatively, we can send them to a textile recycler on your behalf.
