Second-hand men’s clothing in Sydney typically sells for A$8 to A$285 (about $5 to $200). Brand, cloth and cut set the price, and a jacket with a working buttonhole and a full canvas is worth several times a fused one that looks similar on the hanger.
Buying men’s clothing in Sydney
Sydney is Australia’s largest city and its most expensive to live in, which pushes people into smaller flats and shorter tenancies than the house-and-garden stereotype suggests.
Anything that may need altering is worth buying nearby, because the fit has to be judged before the work is worth paying for. Having the seller present to say what has already been taken in saves a wasted trip to a tailor.
What to check in person
Feel the cloth between your fingers for weight and recovery, since a tired wool goes limp and never presses properly again. Look at the seat and inner thigh of trousers, where shine appears long before a hole does.
Collecting it in Sydney
It fits in a bag, so most people meet on the way to something else. A station or a high street works, and neither side needs a car.
The city sprawls a long way and traffic between the inner suburbs and the outer ones is the real cost of a collection, so most people arrange to meet near a train station on their own side of the city rather than crossing it. Parking near the harbour is scarce and expensive.

Rental turnover in the inner suburbs is high and leases commonly run six or twelve months, so households here reshuffle far more often than owner-occupied ones. Summer is when the water gear changes hands and winter is when it sits unsold.
Have it pressed and on a proper hanger for the photographs, since creased tailoring reads as neglected however good the cloth is. State the fibre content from the label and name the maker exactly rather than approximately. Suits and coats move in autumn and around interview season; shirts move all year.
Bank transfer via PayID is instant and is what most private buyers will offer. Cash on collection remains common for larger items.
