If you’re looking to cash in on your cute-but-never-getting-worn clothes, keep reading to become an expert on getting the most cash out of your closet cleanout at the best buy-sell-trade shop around!
Don’t Sell Your Closet Cleanout Short (Bring It All In!)
Make the most out of your trip by bringing in everything you have to sell: we’re talking everyday clothes, outerwear, that unworn special occasion dress, your entire collection of excess shoes and accessories, everything! Even when it’s sweltering outside and you think all we want is tank tops and shorts, don’t hesitate to bring us your desirable fall pieces—we buy the best of all seasons year round and the overlooked pieces lurking deep in your closet could be the difference between a meh or amazing amount of store credit.


So Fresh & So Clean
We know what you’re thinking: if these clothes have been sitting unworn in my closet, why would I need to wash them? While we certainly advocate for saving water, this tip is more about giving your items a thorough once-over before you make the trip to sell. We only buy items that are clean and in excellent condition, so it’s worth taking a look at everything under a bright light and giving a quick run through the wash if needed! You’ll be able to spot any excessive wear like fabric snags, unintentional rips and spots or even just that ice cream cone you forgot you spilled on your jacket. After washing, make sure your fastenings (buttons, tabs, zippers, etc) are still in tip-top shape, then toss ‘em in your bag and head to your local Buffalo.

Sign Up On The Digital Waitlist
Actually, hold on a second! Before you hop in the car or on your public transport of choice, save yourself time by jumping in line before you arrive. Signing up is quick and easy and you can even see live updates on where you are in the queue. Just don’t join too early — be sure to arrive at the store within an hour of signing up, or else you might have to rejoin the line!

Spend Some Quality Time With Your Buyer
As your Buyer looks through your items, we recommend striking up a fashion convo! They’ll be happy to let you know what they’re pricing each item at and what kinds of items the store is currently looking for. If you stick with us, you’ll be a resale fashion insider in no time!


The Winner Trades It All
Fast cash is certainly appealing, but longtime Buffalo shoppers know that taking trade is the key to getting the most out of your closet cleanout. When you take trade, you’re getting 50% back in store credit, vs 25% back in cash. Even better, trade never expires and can be used at all Buffalo Exchange locations (excluding outlets).
Now that you’re all warmed up, it’s time to sell your closet cleanout at Buffalo Exchange! We buy all day, every day, so check out your local store’s hours here and stop in whenever you’re ready. Your cool new closet is waiting!
