Listing your item is easy! Simply click “Sell Your Item” in the upper right-hand corner, create an account (tip: use the same email you’ve used to purchase from CostumeBox so you can see your order history), and go through the listing process.

Once you’ve added all of the applicable information, click “Submit” for the post to be reviewed within 24 hours. After it’s reviewed and approved, it will go live. If there are any issues, you’ll receive an email asking to make changes before it can be accepted.

The Treet Team reviews every item before it goes live. They’re verifying several things about your post:

  • Your pictures are accurate and high quality

  • Any quirks are accurately described

  • The condition you selected accurately reflects your image

  • The product is an authentic piece

After someone purchases your item, you’ll receive an email that includes a prepaid shipping label for you to print and use to ship your item within 7 days. The cost of the shipping label is paid for by the Buyer.

As a Seller on CostumeBox Encore, you have
