Used knitwear in Tempe typically sells for $13 to $61. Knitwear bundles and mixed lots sell on fibre content, so sort by material first — a single cashmere piece is worth more listed alone than the rest of the bundle together.
Selling knitwear in Tempe
Tempe is dominated by one of the largest university campuses in the country, built around a butte and an artificial lake in the riverbed. It is dense by the standards of the region and overwhelmingly shaped by the student population.
The university is enormous relative to the city and clears student housing each May, which is overwhelmingly the dominant cycle. Bikes, desks and furniture move in real volume at that point.
In the May move-out weeks, look at the item in person if you can. The student market clears in a few days here and speed is precisely when checking gets skipped.
Tempe, in Arizona, has around 182,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Phoenix, Tucson and Mesa are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Tempe
Two practical things shape a US sale. Shipping is priced by dimensional weight as well as actual weight, so a light bulky item can cost far more to send than a heavy small one — measure the box before you quote. And meeting in person is common enough that many police departments now run designated safe-exchange areas in their car parks.

Common questions
Where can I sell knitwear in Tempe?
List it free and agree the handover with the buyer between you. The light rail runs through the city and campus and is genuinely useful for anything portable. Campus parking is difficult, so agree a meeting point off it for anything large.
What are the fibres?
List them per item. A bundle described as knitwear could be all cashmere or all acrylic, and the price difference is enormous.
How much is knitwear worth in Tempe?
Most used knitwear change hands for $13 to $61. Condition and completeness move that figure more than anything else.
