Used luggage sets in Abu Dhabi typically sell for AED 200 to AED 990 (about $54 to $270). A matched luggage set is worth more than the same cases sold separately, so keep it together — but only if every case in it actually rolls and locks.
Selling a luggage set in Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi is the capital and its economy is built around government and energy, which means longer postings and more settled households than Dubai. Things are kept for longer and sold in better condition, and the market skews towards quality furniture rather than quick disposals.
Postings here run longer than Dubai’s, so turnover is slower and steadier. The end of the school year is still the peak, but the volume is lower and the items that appear have usually been looked after.
Ask how long the seller has owned the item. Postings here run longer than in Dubai, so goods are typically better used but also better looked after, and the ownership history tells you which you are getting.
Abu Dhabi has around 1.5 million people in Abu Dhabi, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Al Ain, Madinat Zayed and Ruwais are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

What luggage sets are worth
What lifts the price
- Telescopic handles that extend and lock cleanly
- Recognised brands with warranty and spares
What pulls it down
- Handles that stick or will not lock
- Broken zips, which effectively end a case’s life
Working out what yours is worth
- Roll it across a hard floor listening for wheel noise
- Extend and retract the handle several times
Getting it ready
- Confirm the cases nest for storage, and photograph them nested as well as lined up.
- Clean each shell and check the interiors for tears and lingering smells.
Photograph
- All cases lined up together, largest to smallest
- The wheels and extended handle on the largest case
Put in the description
- How many cases, and each one’s external dimensions including wheels
- Whether they nest, and the storage footprint when nested
Collection is usually the sensible route — a nested set is one large item, but couriers price on volume and a three-piece set can cost more to post than it is worth.
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.

Common questions
Where can I sell a luggage set in Abu Dhabi?
Put it on WishThrift free and deal with the buyer direct. Most of the city sits on an island connected by a handful of bridges, so crossing to the mainland suburbs is a real trip rather than a short hop. Compounds and towers usually need visitor access arranged in advance.
Is the small one cabin size?
Give its exact dimensions with wheels. Buyers are usually buying the set for that one case and will check it against their airline.
