How to Earn Cash for Used Clothing at Plato's Closet
With the right merchandise, Plato's Closet can be a cash cow.
Step
1
Clean out your closet and establish "giveaway" and "sell" piles.
Step
2
Go through your piles once you're finished and inspect clothing for holes, fading, stains, missing stitching and other conditions that can make clothing appear worn.
Step
3
Wash all the clothing that appears to still be in good, wearable condition.
Step
4
Inspect this clothing again to make sure any stains were removed and that no further harm or wear was done to the clothing.
Step
5
Fold the clothing and stack it in neat but loose piles to ensure that the clothing doesn't wrinkle during its transport.
Step
6
Fill out a contact information slip at Plato's Closet and present it with all of your items.
Step
7
Collect whatever cash they're willing to offer you for your clothing (usually between $3 and $20 depending on brand, season and condition).
Tips & Warnings
Name brands and trendy styles tend to net the most cash, so keep that in mind when making your piles.
Though Plato's Closet does pass on some clothing, it usually has a local charitable organization that will take the clothes off your hands if you no longer want the unsellable items.
Though clothing is by far the biggest seller, Plato's Closet also accepts shoes, bags, accessories and other items that teens/young adults would be interested in.
Though some prices are fairly fixed, Plato's Closet is a bit open to negotiation if you feel that your item is worth more.
Sometimes Plato's Closet does store-wide sales or other events that focus more on selling the clothes they have rather than purchasing any new inventory, so call ahead to make sure they are accepting sales and have adequate cash before you head in.
