Used kids coats in the UAE typically sell for AED 40 to AED 175 (about $11 to $47). Children’s coats are outgrown in a season, so most are structurally fine and the zip is the usual failure.

Selling a kids coat in the UAE
Bank transfer and cash on collection are both normal. Confirm funds have cleared before handing anything over.
Domestic courier coverage is quick and cheap by international standards, and most of the population is within a short drive of everyone else.
Trading is not open in the Emirates yet, so treat this as a reference page: the pricing and the checks below hold, but the listings will appear once sellers here start posting.
Turnover peaks around the summer, when a large share of relocations happen and whole households are sold at once.
Working out what yours is worth
- Check the cuffs and collar in daylight
- State the age and chest measurement
Getting it ready
- Wash or wipe it down according to the label, and reproof anything waterproof if it has stopped beading.
- Test every zip and popper, and check the cuffs and hood for wear.
Photograph
- The back and the hood
- The zip fully closed and the cuffs

Put in the description
- Brand, age or size label, plus chest and length measured flat
- Whether it is waterproof, showerproof or neither, and whether it is lined
- Any stain, tear or repair, stated plainly
Light and compressible, so postage is cheap. Vacuum bags reduce the parcel size on padded coats and cut the volumetric cost significantly.
Strongly seasonal. Winter coats sell from September to December and waterproofs in spring and autumn. A padded winter coat listed in May will sit, so hold it until autumn.
It costs nothing to list
There is no listing fee, no selling fee and no commission, so the AED 173 a buyer pays is the AED 173 you keep. You and the buyer settle up and arrange the handover between yourselves; WishThrift does not hold the money or ship the item.

Common questions
Where can I sell a kids coat in the UAE?
List it free on WishThrift and deal with the buyer direct. There is no selling fee, so the whole amount stays with you. Bank transfer and cash on collection are both normal. Confirm funds have cleared before handing anything over.
What are the measurements?
Give chest and length flat. Age labels differ so much between brands that the measurement is what parents actually use.
What fails on children’s coats?
The zip, almost always. Test it fully, since a broken zip is what stops a coat selling.
When should I list a winter coat?
Early autumn. Demand for children’s outerwear is sharply seasonal, exactly as for adults.
