Worked examples (standard fees)
| $18 item | $60 item | $300 bag | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sale price | $18.00 | $60.00 | $300.00 |
| Selling fee | −$10.00 (flat) | −$10.00 (flat) | −$36.00 (12%) |
| Processing | −$3.00 (minimum) | −$3.00 (minimum) | −$9.00 (3%) |
| Payout before cost of goods | $5.00 | $47.00 | $255.00 |
| Fees as share of price | 72% | 22% | 15% |
The flat charges make Vestiaire a poor home for anything under about $83. Above that line, the fees settle at a predictable 15%.
What suits Vestiaire Collective
Practitioner guidance, not Vestiaire data:
- Designer and luxury labels that buyers search for worldwide, priced well above $83.
- Items from the eligible-brand list, where only 3% processing applies.
- Pieces with their proof: original tags, dust bags, receipts and clear photos of labels and hardware.
ThriftProfit does not authenticate items and this guide makes no authentication claims. If you are not certain a designer item is genuine, do not list it as such.
For mid-priced branded clothing, eBay or Poshmark usually leave more money after fees. See the fee comparison.
