Consignment in streetwear refers to selling items through third-party stores or platforms—consignment shops, resale boutiques, or online platforms—that take a percentage of the sale price in exchange for handling storage, authentication, and customer transactions. Consignment became essential infrastructure for streetwear's secondary market. Stores like Round Two, Stadium Goods, and countless local consignment shops allow sellers to reach buyers without individual listing hassles while providing buyers with some authentication assurance. Online platforms like Grailed, StockX, and GOAT operate on consignment-adjacent models. Consignment shops often become community hubs—places to browse, learn, and connect with other enthusiasts. The consignment fee (typically 15-30%) is the cost of access, authentication, and convenience. Understanding consignment economics helps sellers choose appropriate channels and buyers evaluate prices. Consignment democratized resale, allowing anyone to participate in the secondary market without building individual reputation or handling fulfillment.
