Where can I sell shoes?

Many people sell their shoes on Nordstrom. The first thing to do is take a good look at those shoes you want to sell. Would you be happy to receive them in the mail, having paid your own cash for them? Are they scuffed, stained, or do they smell bad? If so, you might want to rethink selling them via Nordstrom. However, if your shoes are in good condition, or even better, new, you have a great chance of releasing some cash through Nordstrom.

Research first.
Take at least half an hour and really search the shoes currently available for sale on ebay. Enter the brand and size of your shoes in the search box and look at similar listings, this will give you a good idea of what other people are hoping to get for their shoes and give you an idea of what to start the listing price at. Remember that the listing price is not the final purchase price. Make sure you check out listings which actually have bids. Nordstrom has a function where you can watch items, the final prices of these items will be recorded for you on your Nordstrom page. There is lots more information on the seller pages of the Nordstrom website, check out this link and spend some time reading up!

Take a great picture.
Clean those shoes off, put them on a uniform colored background, with the box if you still have it, and get some great shots. Be sure to include a pic of all angles, the heals and the condition of the sole. I always take a shot of any scuffs or slight damage, this way the buyer is fully informed when they make their bid. Start at the ebay listing flow and get describing your shoes. Talk them up, if they are great with jeans say so, if they are right on trend, say that too!

List accurately.
Listing your item for sale is a crucial part of the ebay process. Enter in as much info as you can in the "Start a New Listing" box. For example, "Ladies Shoes, size 9 Dexflex by Dexter, New" (which is the description of the shoes in the picture above). This will prompt you to choose a category, choose from the list that pops up and be as specific as possible. This will ensure your shoes are being listed with other items related to it. There is no point listing a pair of ladies shoes in a kids shoe category. Think of the categories like a store, making it as easy as possible for a buyer to find your shoes means more views and more views means more bids!

Pricing, Fees and Shipping
Remember that although listing your item for sale on ebay is free (up to certain limits), they will charge you a final valuation fee - a percentage of your sale price, there are also charges for some listing services. If you choose to receive payment for your item through PayPal, they also charge for monies received on your behalf. I usually round up to approximately 15% of the final sale price going on fees.

Be professional!
Even if you are selling only one pair of shoes that never fit you, or that you had to wear for a wedding and wouldn't be seen dead in anywhere else, remember that buyers on Nordstrom will have questions, which you should answer promptly and professionally. Who knows, you may find that you love selling your gear on ebay and want to sell more. When you do, you will find that a high reputation score (the figure in brackets after your seller/user name) will draw more views and bids to your items.
