Selling kids shoes in Launceston
Launceston is the northern city of the island and one of the oldest in the country, sitting where two rivers meet below a gorge that runs right into the city. The building stock is old, the winters are cold and the surrounding district is farming and cool-climate wine.
The city is compact and driving is easy by mainland standards, and the centre is walkable. Older houses mean narrow stairs and doorways, so measure anything large before you agree to it.
On old timber furniture, check the joints and the feet. The building stock here is genuinely old and so is much of what comes out of it, and age shows at the joins long before it shows on the surface.
Launceston, in Tasmania, has around 90,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Hobart, Devonport and Sydney are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

What kids shoes are worth
What lifts the price
- Recognised brands with proper fitting construction
- Original box for smarter styles
What pulls it down
- Scuffed toes on school shoes
- Odour, which is difficult to remove
Working out what yours is worth
- Photograph the soles as well as the uppers
- Check the insole for a moulded impression
Getting it ready
- Look at the sole wear pattern and the inside of the heel. A shoe worn heavily on one edge has moulded to a specific gait.
- Measure the internal length in centimetres, since children’s sizing varies significantly between brands.

Light and cheap to post. Box rather than bag so the shape holds, and say plainly that they have been cleaned — for children’s footwear that reassurance matters.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
