Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay, Poshmark, and Mercari are best for this brand. Facebook Marketplace is also a good option for local sales to avoid high shipping costs on heavy boots.
Selling Tips
Highlight the 'Cap Toe' and 'Combat' keywords. Take clear photos of the soles to show lack of wear. Since they are heavy, consider using a USPS Flat Rate box or Poshmark's flat-rate shipping to save the buyer money. Mention the original box is included as this appeals to gift-buyers.
