Used midi skirts in Dubai typically sell for AED 49 to AED 200 (about $13 to $54). Midi is a length, not a size, so the single most useful thing in your listing is the waist-to-hem measurement in centimetres.
Selling a midi skirt in Dubai
Dubai has one of the most transient populations of any major city, and that is the whole story for second-hand goods here. Expatriate residents arrive on fixed contracts and leave when they end, and a departing household typically sells everything it owns in the space of a fortnight rather than shipping it.
Contract cycles drive everything. Departures cluster around the end of the school year, which is reliably when the most furniture and white goods come onto the market and when prices are softest for a buyer.
The city is built around the main highway spine and almost everything is collected by car, so which side of the city someone is on matters. Most residential towers and compounds require the buyer to be registered at the gate, so agree access before anyone sets off.
Ask when the seller is leaving the country. A departure date is the single most useful piece of information in this market, because it tells you how much room there is on price and how firm the deadline is.
Handing it over in Dubai
Bank transfer and cash on collection are both normal. Confirm funds have cleared before handing anything over.
