Reseller starter kit, by how much you ship
Spend by volume, not by hope. Under ten parcels a month you need a phone, daylight, a tape measure and reused packaging. From about ten to forty, add a scale and proper mailers. Above that, a thermal label printer and a better photo setup start to earn their place. We give no totals because we do not quote prices we cannot date.
How we picked these
Researched picks, not tested. We compared specs from each maker's own page (linked under every product, read on October 4, 2026), and kept only facts a maker states. Where a spec is a maker's claim, it says so. We did not test these products and we do not use star ratings or review scores. Prices change daily, so we show only the maker's dated price where one exists and send you to the store for today's price.

Questions
What do I need to start reselling clothes?
A phone, daylight, a tape measure and packaging. Add a scale and mailers once you post several parcels a week.
When should I buy a label printer?
When you print labels at home every week. Under about ten parcels a month, a QR code at a relay point or drop-off may be enough where your marketplace offers it.
