Used maternity clothes in the UAE typically sell for AED 40 to AED 175 (about $11 to $47). Maternity wear is worn for a few months and then never again, so most is barely worn and bundles sell best.

Selling maternity clothes in the UAE
Bank transfer and cash on collection are both normal. Confirm funds have cleared before handing anything over.
The UAE has an unusually active second-hand market driven by how often people arrive and leave — relocation sales mean good-quality items turn over quickly and often at well below their age.
The Emirates is a pre-launch market, so this is what a seller here should expect when it opens. The population turns over unusually fast, and that shapes the whole market: relocation sales put nearly-new furniture, appliances and cars on the market at heavy discounts, and the best stock appears in concentrated bursts as people leave. Distances are short and courier coverage is quick and cheap, so postage is rarely the obstacle it is elsewhere. Expect buyers to move fast and to expect a reply the same day.
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
- Sort by size and photograph the bundle
- Count the items and list them
Getting it ready
- Sort by size and by which stage of pregnancy the pieces suit.
- Wash everything and check the stretch panels, which is where maternity wear goes first.

Put in the description
- Size and the number of items
- What the bundle contains by type
- Any recognisable brands, and whether items are smoke and pet free
Light and cheap to post in a large mailing bag. A vacuum bag reduces bigger bundles considerably.
Steady demand all year. Bundles sell within days; individual maternity items rarely sell at all.
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 maternity clothes 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 exactly is in the bundle?
List it by item type. Buyers are working out whether it covers what they need and vagueness invites low offers.
How should I sell maternity clothes?
In bundles by size. Most pieces are worn for only a few months so condition is usually very close to unworn, and bundles sell far better than singles.
What wears out on maternity wear?
The stretch panel. Once it has lost recovery the garment no longer fits properly, which is what buyers check.
