Sell Your Cardigan in Canada

Used cardigans in Canada typically sell for C$15 to C$75 (about $11 to $54). Cardigans are judged on the buttons and the button band, because those carry the strain and are what fails first.

What cardigans are worth in Canada

Selling a cardigan in Canada

Interac e-Transfer is the norm and is instant and traceable, which suits a private sale well. It is what most buyers will suggest before anything else.

Shipping cost is the single commonest reason a Canadian listing stalls. Decide collection versus courier before you price it, and say which you are offering.

Winter clothing and sports equipment move from October, and the spring thaw brings the strongest few weeks for furniture, bikes and garden items.

Getting it ready

Check every button is present and firmly attached, and look for a spare sewn inside the placket.
Read the composition: wool, cashmere, cotton and acrylic sit at very different prices.

Put in the description

Fibre composition and knit weight
Whether all buttons are present and any spare included

Fibre, style and size: “Lambswool Button Through Cardigan, Navy, Size 12”. Fibre is the price driver and belongs first. Say whether it is chunky, fine knit or a longline, since those suit different buyers.

Light and cheap to post. Fold rather than hang so the shoulders do not stretch, and use a waterproof bag for natural fibres — wool and cashmere absorb any damp in transit and arrive smelling musty, which buyers notice immediately.

It costs nothing to list

There is no listing fee, no selling fee and no commission, so the C$75 a buyer pays is the C$75 you keep. You and the buyer settle up and arrange the handover between yourselves; WishThrift does not hold the money or ship the item.

Where in Canada

Canada is a big place and what sells well moves with it. These are the parts of Canada with their own page for cardigans.

Common questions

Where can I sell a cardigan in Canada?

List it free on WishThrift and deal with the buyer direct. There is no selling fee, so the whole amount stays with you. Interac e-Transfer is the norm and is instant and traceable, which suits a private sale well. It is what most buyers will suggest before anything else.

Are there any moth holes?

Hold natural fibres up to a window and check. Small holes are normal on wool and accepted when disclosed.

What do buyers check on a cardigan?

The buttons and the button band. Missing buttons and gaping bands are the most common faults and both are very visible.

Does fibre content matter?

Considerably. Wool and cashmere hold value; thin acrylic knits sell for very little whatever the label.
