Used fleeces in Dubai typically sell for AED 49 to AED 245 (about $13 to $67). Fleeces sell on brand and pile condition, because a matted, bobbled fleece looks worn out in a photograph however clean it is.
Selling a fleece in Dubai
Dubai has one of the most transient populations of any major city, and that is the whole story for second-hand goods here. Expatriate residents arrive on fixed contracts and leave when they end, and a departing household typically sells everything it owns in the space of a fortnight rather than shipping it.
Contract cycles drive everything. Departures cluster around the end of the school year, which is reliably when the most furniture and white goods come onto the market and when prices are softest for a buyer.
Ask when the seller is leaving the country. A departure date is the single most useful piece of information in this market, because it tells you how much room there is on price and how firm the deadline is.
Dubai has around 3.6 million people in Dubai, which means a buyer pool big enough that almost anything finds someone, and close enough together that collection is rarely the obstacle. Sharjah, Abu Dhabi and Al Ain are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Dubai
Bank transfer and cash on collection are both normal. Confirm funds have cleared before handing anything over.
What fleeces are worth
What lifts the price
- Deep-pile and retro-patterned fleeces in demand
- Minimal pilling on the body panels
What pulls it down
- Heavy pilling and matting of the pile
- Broken or separated zips
Working out what yours is worth
- Run the zip fully and check it does not separate
- Check the pile at the elbows and cuffs for matting
Getting it ready
- De-bobble the pile with a fabric shaver — it takes minutes and transforms how the garment photographs.
- Note the weight or grade if the label states it, since outdoor brands grade their fleece.

Common questions
Where can I sell a fleece in Dubai?
List it free on WishThrift and deal with the buyer direct. The city is built around the main highway spine and almost everything is collected by car, so which side of the city someone is on matters. Most residential towers and compounds require the buyer to be registered at the gate, so agree access before anyone sets off.
Is it bobbled?
De-bobble it first, then photograph. A shaved fleece looks cared-for and the difference in price is real.
