How to Purchase on StockX

Oct 31, 2022 | 0 comments

When it comes to sneakers, I normally have to stop myself from purchasing more Nike Air Force Ones. But some shoes call for me me, and I can’t ignore their siren song, which led me to StockX. While the name may conjure up images of a stock trading website, StockX is an online marketplace where you can buy, bid on, and sell sneakers, streetwear, luxury handbags, accessories, and anything in between.

After some research, I decided this was something I had to share with you. In this article, I’m going to walk you through all the things you need to get started on StockX so you can bid and successfully buy the products you’ve always wanted. After all, I’m always the one with the best deals, so without further ado, here’s how to get some of StockX’s most hyped sneakers!

What exactly is StockX?

How to Purchase on StockX

StockX, unlike other sites that offer peer-to-peer selling, allows you to track the price of those Yeezys you’ve been eyeing. Those letters scrolling at the bottom of the screen? These aren’t stock shoes; they’re sneaker models! You can also see how much more you’re paying than the retail price to ensure you’re not getting ripped off.

Buying on StockX is a cross between buying from an official website and buying from a site like Carousell. When regular people post listings, you get a wide range of items. However, because the item is shipped to StockX before being delivered to you, StockX will verify its authenticity before sending it to you! This way, you get a good deal while also ensuring that you are not purchasing a knockoff.

How do I open a StockX account?

Thankfully, the signup process is extremely simple. Just navigate to the StockX website and click the “Sign Up” button in the upper right corner. Then you can register with your Google, Facebook, Apple, or Twitter account. You can also sign up with an email and a password if you prefer.

How Does StockX Function?

It took me a while to figure this out as well, so don’t feel bad if you didn’t understand how StockX works on your first visit. This is just something experienced by all new users and there is nothing weird about it. If you are a Buyer, you can do the following:

1. Purchase at the lowest asking price

2. Place a bid on a product

3. Monitor daily prices using “stock-style” indexes.

If you mean to sell something you should:

1. Create a product listing

2. Determine your bid or purchase price.

3. Send your product to StockX for inspection.

As previously stated, StockX will be in charge of facilitating the transaction. If you are a buyer or bidder, StockX will first receive the product from the seller to ensure its authenticity before shipping it to you. StockX listings, like any other e-commerce site, are sorted by-products rather than seller profiles.
