eBay

Ebay, the online auction house, is my go to option when it comes to selling my used soccer cleats and gear. If you have high end used boots or want your listings to be seen by high traffic then I would recommend it. Compared to the other options, eBay is probably the place to get the highest price for your used gear. Be sure to check out our tips for buying and selling boots on eBay as well!

Local Stores Like Play it Again Sports

Local stores such as Play it Again Sports are viable options as they buy used equipment to sell themselves, sort of like a pawn shop. Although you may not be able to get the price you want for high end cleats, if you are looking to sell cheaper boots or your kid’s old gear then a local store may be right for you. You won’t have to deal with the hassle of listing boots on eBay and you can get money for your gear right away.

Sideline Swap

One of the more unique options, SidelineSwap is an online site that connects you with other users that want to buy/sell/trade gear. Although I’d still recommend eBay for selling high end boots, if you’re looking for a place to trade your used boots for another pair then this might just be the place for you.

Craigslist

Craigslist is a great place to find local things on sale from used cars to weights and you can even find some soccer cleats there. However, I wouldn’t recommend selling used boots here as there isn’t high traffic for cleats here as results are mostly localized.

Local Friends or Teammates

Selling boots to teammates or friends is a great option as there isn’t much hassle in listing and you can negotiate a price in person. Just be careful not to trick or scam your friends as its better to have a friend than a few extra dollars!
