Used mom jeans in Richmond, Virginia typically sell for $16 to $67. Mom jeans are bought for the rise and the fit through the hip, so the two numbers that sell them are the measured waist and the rise — not the label size.
Selling mom jeans in Richmond
Richmond is the state capital, on the fall line of the river, with a great deal of preserved historic architecture and a long tobacco manufacturing past. It has a large urban university and a strong contemporary arts scene.
The university clears student housing each May, and the old row-house stock brings genuinely old furniture onto the market. Capitol and agency staff relocate on posting cycles of their own.
Row-house streets here are narrow with limited parking. Confirm where a vehicle can stop and how far the carry is before agreeing a price on anything large.
Richmond, in Virginia, has around 230,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Virginia Beach, Chesapeake and Norfolk are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Richmond
Demand rises through the spring cleaning season and again around college move-in in August, when furniture and small appliances move fastest.
