New with Tags Clothing — Second-Hand Buying Guide

New with Tags is the highest of the five condition grades on WishThrift. At this grade clothing is listed across the full range for the category, $5 to $808 (about £4 to £600), because nothing has been discounted for wear. The tag has to still be attached. A piece that was bought, washed once and never worn is Like New, however unworn it looks.

Where the line falls

Fabric fails where it moves and rubs: cuffs, collar edges, the seam under the arm and the seat of a trouser.

For comparison, one step down is Like New Clothing.

Listing at the New with Tags grade

Photograph the swing tag with the brand and size panel readable in the same frame as the garment, so the two cannot be argued apart.

Shots that carry the most weight in clothing:

  • Abaya — Full length on a hanger, front, showing the drape
  • Activewear Set — Both pieces laid out together
  • Band T-Shirt — The full front print, flat, filling the frame
  • Beanie — The beanie laid flat, front, whole

On a typical $407 listing, a marketplace charging 20% takes $81, one charging 13.6% takes $55 and one charging 10% takes $41. WishThrift charges neither side, so you keep the whole $407. Listing is free.

Common questions

Is that the original tag, or has it been reattached?

Original swing tag or a sealed pack, factory creases still sharp, and no laundry softening anywhere in the fabric.
