StockX - the most important questions and answers

StockX has become probably the most relevant resell platform worldwide in recent years.

The special feature here is the algorithm that directly generates information and statistics about the resale market on eBay. This means that both buyers and sellers have a constantly adjusted price for the coveted item and can track the value live.

Every item sold, which can be sneakers, apparel or accessories, is checked for authenticity in one of the locations and then sent to the lucky recipient. It doesn't matter whether it's streetwear from BAPE, Rolex watches or the latest sneaker releases.

While the prices on many platforms often don't include taxes and customs duties, only additional shipping costs are incurred here. StockX places great value on transparency in this case and spares us any nasty surprises.
