Does Uptown Cheapskate or Plato's Closet give you more money?
How do you get the most money on Uptown Cheapskate?
To earn the most out of your things, make sure your items are freshly laundered, in great condition, and in current fashion. Be sure there are no rips or stains, and check for fading or missing buttons. We buy items based on condition, style, inventory levels, and what sells well in our store.
Here's why: the cash payout is 25% of the price they can sell the item for, while trade is 50% percent. That's enough reason on its own to go for trade, but it's not just a numbers game: at Buffalo Exchange, trade NEVER expires, and you can use it at any location.
