Used knitwear in San Diego typically sells for $13 to $61. Knitwear bundles and mixed lots sell on fibre content, so sort by material first — a single cashmere piece is worth more listed alone than the rest of the bundle together.
Selling knitwear in San Diego
San Diego combines a large naval presence with a beach and outdoor culture and near-constant good weather. Surf and water gear, bikes and camping equipment all move steadily, and none of it has to be stored for a winter.
Naval rotations move households in and out on a predictable rhythm, and departing families routinely sell a whole home’s worth of goods rather than ship it. The surf market runs on its own upgrade cycle year-round.
Collection is by car and the freeways make most of the county reachable, though coastal parking in summer is genuinely difficult. Naming a specific meeting point rather than a neighbourhood saves a lot of circling.
Salt air is hard on metal. Check bolts, bearings and hardware on anything that lived near the coast, and on a used board ask about repairs rather than only about dings.
San Diego, in California, has around 1.4 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Los Angeles, San Jose and San Francisco are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in San Diego
USPS, UPS and FedEx all cover the country. USPS Ground Advantage is normally cheapest for anything under a few pounds in weight; above that the gap narrows quickly.
