Used heels in Mackay typically sell for A$23 to A$115 (about $16 to $81). Heels sell on brand and on the state of the tips and the heel covering — and honest measurement matters more here than in any other footwear, because there is no give at all.
Selling heels in Mackay
Mackay is a sugar town that became a mining service town, sitting between the cane fields and the coal basin inland. A large part of the working population is on rotation rather than resident full time, and that shapes both what people buy and how quickly they sell it again.
Mining rosters govern the supply. People set up a household for a contract and clear it when the contract ends, and downturns in the basin put a great deal onto the market at once rather than gradually.
Everything is done by vehicle and utes are common, which makes collecting something large easier here than in most places. Rotation schedules mean a seller may only be in town on certain weeks, so agree the window early rather than assuming flexibility.
On tools bought for mine work, ask whether they were used on site or at home. Site tools earn their keep and are often better maintained, but they have also done far more hours than the same model from a garage.

What heels are worth
What lifts the price
- Recognised designer labels with a resale following
- Intact heel tips with no exposed metal
What pulls it down
- Stretched or creased vamps
- Very high heels, which suit fewer buyers
Working out what yours is worth
- Look at the heel tips and note whether they need replacing
- Measure the heel height and state it
Getting it ready
- Check every heel tip. Worn-through tips exposing metal are both a defect and a floor hazard, and replacing them is inexpensive.
- Inspect the heel covering for lifting or scuffing, which is the wear point on covered heels.

Put in the description
- Material of the upper and whether the sole is leather or synthetic
- Condition of the tips, insole and heel covering, stated separately
Post boxed, with each shoe wrapped and the heels protected. Thin heels snap in transit when they are loose in a padded bag, so a rigid box is worth the small extra postage.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
