Default Where can I sell my t-shirts?

Where can I sell all of the t-shirts I have laying around that I have aquired throughout the years. Many of them are of high quality and have only been gently used. Is there an outlet to sell them other than ebay, amazon, craigslist etc?

I have thought about this issue as well. One of the problems with used t-shirts is that no one wants to wear someone else's old clothes even if they have been washed. I talked to some people at Goodwill and they said that the clothes that they put out are not washed but that they only display clothes in good condition.

You can always donate them to places/people that have lost everything...
Katrina victims
Flood victims
Haiti
etc.
etc.
Contact the Red Cross.. i'm sure they might have an idea of where you can donate them.

Donate would be your best bet. You can always try a Yard sale.

Shelters are another overlooked option for donations.

I think that the question here is really, "can you convert your current shirts into cash?" I took a look at ebay and the majority of used shirts reach the expiration time with zero bids. There are some exceptions if the brand is strong such as sports teams.

If the item is unique and rare ebay makes sence, but for most t-shirts, people can find similar content on a more reliable site. Why save a couple of dollars on a shirt and worry if someone can deliver when you can shop at a more reputable site and save the headache? Don't forget the need to get the right size and make returns.

Depends on the shirt, if it has "vintage" or "unique" designs, some people may be interested in them and be willing to pay a premium for them albeit being used. You could try Etsy, people there tend to be more unique/open minded.

I would try Japan. No offense, but I've seen many ads that people are selling Used Underwear.

Okay, after you stop laughing, look it up. Maybe you can say you stored them in your underwear drawer, lol.

Most of mine go to goodwill. Usually misprints, etc.
