Used puffer jackets in Sheffield typically sell for £20 to £100 (about $27 to $135). Puffer jackets are bought on fill, and the difference between down and synthetic is most of the price — check the label before you write anything else.
Selling a puffer jacket in Sheffield
Sheffield made steel and now sits on the doorstep of the Peak District, and the second of those shapes what changes hands. It is one of the best cities in England for used outdoor kit — climbing especially, because the gritstone edges are twenty minutes away and the city has a large, serious climbing population.
Two universities give the usual September and June cycle, and the outdoor scene adds its own: gear gets bought, used hard for a season or two and passed on when someone upgrades, which keeps a steady supply of boots, packs and tents that still have years in them.
Sheffield is genuinely hilly and that is worth planning around: a bike or a chest of drawers that looks like a short walk on a map may not be. The tram network covers the main routes, and most people arrange to meet somewhere flat near the centre.
For used climbing and outdoor gear, ask how old it is and how it was stored. Anything load-bearing has a service life regardless of how it looks, and honest sellers here will tell you without being asked.
Handing it over in Sheffield

A short autumn and winter season, strongest October to December. Selling in spring typically costs a third of the value, so storing until autumn is usually worth it.
