As much noise as sneaker consignment store Stadium Goods made at its opening, it's still got a long way to go if it wants to catch up to Flight Club as the go-to sneaker reselling spot.
Today, Stadium Goods announced a partnership with eBay that should help out with that. The new partnership puts all of the sneakers for sale at Stadium Goods up for sale online via eBay as well – the entirety of the store's stock is now available via an eBay store here.
As Stadium Goods is a new name in the scene, the number of people looking at the sneakers you've got for sale there is likely going to be smaller than at a spot like Flight Club. But, this partnership solves that by putting products in front of the 159 million buyers that eBay has globally. And people selling their shoes don't incur any extra cost – Stadium Goods will pay the eBay fees and handle the shipping.
If there's a downside to Stadium Goods' eBay presence it's that the store doesn't offer the lower prices that usually pull people to eBay over consignment stores when shopping for sneakers on the resell market. For exmaple, Stadium Goods is selling the "Turtledove" adidas Yeezy 350 Boost for anywhere from $1,250 to $1,750, while Campless lists the average price for pairs sold on eBay as $785.
