How do I sell “used shoes and socks”

43 replies

sodoffbeforemycupofcoff · 04/09/2026 05:51

Hi, I was wondering, seen as we live in a world of OF girls (which I am not going to do) surely it isn’t bad to sell some used shoes and socks, instead, is it?
where would I begin and what sites would I use? Does anyone know, please?

Good question..

ToKittyornottoKitty · 04/09/2026 06:07

Why not Google it? I’m sure websites will come up

I’m not sure what is legit and a lot look extremely dark and seedy (like OF)

But if you’re selling them for men to wank over, wouldn’t you expect the sites to be dark & seedy?

Well obviously, that’s the whole point!

To sell socks and shoes I have to upload photos of my breast and degrade myself to show myself in underwear? There is a reason I’m wanting to sell shoes and shocks and NOT nude photos, thanks. So it is not the point

Those websites don’t exist for you tho, they are for dirty seedy men so it IS the point. Keep googling and you may find one that doesn’t insist on photos.

I have heard that you can sell on eBay but they have sort of “code words” I’m not sure how true that is because how would you know such words from the get go? That’s the kind of thing I’d be up for, not sure I’d want to be part of a site like that.

Surely if you think people do this on eBay, you can brainstorm some words to search for. Rather than encourage other people to describe them for you. I’m fairly sure that photos of your ‘breast’ won’t be necessary because it’s feet they like. I think if you are selling things for men to wank into you are going to have to expect a level of seediness.

Whaaaatszuuup · 04/09/2026 06:34

Have you got bigger feet? I’ve just looked on eBay and bigger sizes are where it’s at. 👢 🥿 💦

babyproblems · 04/09/2026 06:36

I know nothing about this sort of thing except I used to sell vintage clothing on eBay and I would get loads of messages asking for other items of clothing specifically 🫠😂 so it definitely does exist on eBay. I can’t say whether it’s the market leader or not though 😂😂😂

No one is making money selling just used shoes and socks (or any other item, underwear etc), those are sold at an inflated price as they come in addition to pics, videos, dirty messages etc.

Yes, there’s definitely an additional element to it.

blythet · 04/09/2026 06:45

If you could go on to eBay and charge inflated prices for used socks and shoes without anything ‘additional’ we’d all be doing it

Sc0tlandbye · 04/09/2026 06:46

Is it like you have to whore yourself out and then the socks are a premium treat

Or can you actually sell socks as a totally faceless entity

The former and even then the odds aren’t in your favour as shown by the stats on how the vast majority of OF creators makes very little money.

I sometimes buy secondhand shoes on eBay (because I prefer the earlier versions of some styles) and occasionally see tatty shoes on for high prices. Perhaps that is a code for this activity, but it will certainly also involve photos or some other direct connection with the buyer. You can pick up worn shoes in any charity shop.

Have you tried looking on eBay to see if this market exists and if stuff is selling? Selling sex it items for sex is seedy, it doesn’t exist in a nice polished corner of the internet where you can do it and pretend you aren’t. Even on eBay you’d get requests from dirty men.

If that’s not for you maybe try bargain hunting in charity shops and reselling on Vinted (just normal clothes to normal people)

Just the one breast? Oh that’s ok then 🤣

ClassActress · 04/09/2026 07:49

I’ve come across this by accident on eBay. Sorry op, but they will want photos of you wearing them and probably some messages back and forth too.

TheChosenTwo · 04/09/2026 07:51

I only actually own about 6 pairs of socks, I don’t have enough to sell!

B0D · 04/09/2026 07:57

Sometimes on EBay you see used shoes being “modelled” in th photos (in the larger sizes and well worn out)

jimmyateworld · 04/09/2026 07:58

Surely these men want to see some legs attached to the feet? Stockings high heels etc ? Personally I don’t get foot fetishes but each to their own 🤣 I wonder if they’d want my gammy feet? I’ve lost a toenail recently haha

icursethemallout · 04/09/2026 07:59

It’s very hard to make a living doing this sort of thing unless you have a dedicated OF following.
