Material
Synthetic Polyurethane (PU) upper with faux leather finish and rubberized block heel
Condition
Fair to Good. Visible scuffing and dirt accumulation on the heels and backs of the counters. Some creasing in the synthetic material.
Demand Level
Moderate. Gold sandals are a staple for events, but the brand-less, worn nature reduces urgency.

Comparable Sales
Similar unbranded or budget-brand synthetic sandals typically sell for $10-12 on Mercari or are bundled in 'lots' on Poshmark for approximately $15-20 total.
Description
Adjustable ankle strap sandals featuring a trendy braided toe strap and a comfortable low block heel in a metallic champagne gold finish. Perfect for weddings, prom, or summer outings.
Key Features
Trendy braided strap design, stable block heel, neutral metallic color that matches many outfits, adjustable buckle closure.
Authenticity Indicators
Construction suggests mass-produced fast fashion. Lack of stitching on the heel and plastic-looking hardware are common red flags for low-end manufacturing. Confidence: High.
Flaws to Note
Heavy scuffing on the back of the left heel; dark marks on the heel counters; general wear to the footbed and straps. Requires cleaning.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Facebook Marketplace, Poshmark, or Mercari. Best as a low-cost 'add-on' or local pickup item.
Selling Tips
Thoroughly clean the scuffs with a magic eraser if possible. Use keywords like 'wedding guest,' 'boho,' 'metallic,' and 'braided.' Photograph against a clean, white background to hide the heavy wear.
