FB marketplace is the answer

So I checked it out and the system is shit. Shitty filters and shitty search. But it had some decent stuff

Without a doubt, it’s an absolute dumpster fire.
Still the most used and it’s really easy to move stuff though

Fb market is great. I have some success there
I wonder if there are any good Aussie FB groups for vintage or second hand clothing?
I have had some success on ebay, but from those experiences I have been searching for specific brands, rather then general vintage clothing.
Unfortunately I’m not sure. You could try and search up buy and sell groups targeting vintage clothes on fb.
Thanks. Anything else (I don't necessarily use Facebook)
Your options are limited.
Grailed - the use of USD is a killer
Depop - hit or miss, flooded with people flogging bulk shit ordered from overseas wholesalers
eBay - great if you use targeted searches, have had a lot of success but postage can be a killer (if buying from overseas sellers)
Yahoo Japan/other Japan based proxies - great if you have the patience
FB groups - good for brand specific selling groups/people who Stan certain brands
There there’s poshmark, mercari, TRR etc. with a limited Aus presence.
Grailed and Depop got so few users in Austria its a shame. Have you ever bought from eBay?
It is a shame. I have picked stuff up on both but it’s a long wait between finding things you actually want. I use eBay the most to be honest. This is an old (but still relevant) write up on optimising your eBay searches (if you aren’t already).
