Used wall mirrors in the UAE typically sell for AED 74 to AED 595 (about $20 to $160). Mirrors are fragile and awkward to post, so most sell locally, and the frame is usually worth more than the glass.

Selling a wall mirror in the UAE
Bank transfer and cash on collection are both normal. Confirm funds have cleared before handing anything over.
Domestic courier coverage is quick and cheap by international standards, and most of the population is within a short drive of everyone else.
Trading is not open in the Emirates yet, so treat this as a reference page: the pricing and the checks below hold, but the listings will appear once sellers here start posting.
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.
Working out what yours is worth
- Inspect the frame for splits, especially at the corners
- Measure it and decide honestly whether it can be posted
Getting it ready
- Clean the glass and inspect the edges and back for black spotting, which is silvering breaking down and cannot be repaired.
- Check the hanging fixings on the back are present and sound, and note the weight if you can.

Put in the description
- Overall dimensions including the frame, and glass dimensions if different
- Frame material and finish
- The condition of the silvering, described honestly, including any spotting
Collection is far safer. If you must post, that means a purpose-made mirror box, corner protectors and a carrier that accepts glass — many do not, and a mirror in an ordinary box will not survive.
Steady all year with a lift in spring and before Christmas. Large statement mirrors sell quickly; small plain ones compete on price.
It costs nothing to list
There is no listing fee, no selling fee and no commission, so the AED 593 a buyer pays is the AED 593 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 a wall mirror 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.
How heavy is it?
Give a real figure or a good estimate. Large mirrors need proper fixings into masonry, and a buyer planning to hang one on plasterboard needs to know now.
Are old mirrors worth anything?
The frame usually carries the value. Antique and design frames sell well, while the glass itself is rarely worth much unless it is period.
What is desilvering?
The reflective backing breaking down, showing as dark cloudy patches at the edges. On antiques it is often accepted as patina; on modern mirrors it is a fault.
