How to Get Your StockX First Purchase Discount

StockX is an online marketplace founded as an exchange for designer sneakers. It’s since been updated to include all shoes, watches, handbags, and street apparel. The site aims to offer great user experience to both buyers and sellers. So if you’re into any of the above and considering making your first purchase on StockX, you might as well take advantage of the new user discount.

New User Discounts

As a new user on StockX, you get a welcome discount code. When you finish registering, you’ll receive a promo code valid for $300 off any watch priced at $3,000 or more or $50 off any handbag $500 or more. So if you’re looking to buy some luxury items, this can be a terrific deal.

Unfortunately, for now at least, StockX doesn’t offer first purchase discounts on sneakers. Once you get the code, you have 14 days to make your first purchase. If for some reason you didn’t get a code after signing up, you can send a message here. StockX support will send you a new one.

StockX Discounts

If you aren’t a new user, you still might qualify for discounts on StockX products at one of those sites that collect promo codes. If you’ve already got a favorite site, hop over there and look for active StockX promo codes. Usually, you’ll see codes that are valid for a specific month. You may find discounts on watches, handbags, and sneakers, too.

After a coupon is revealed, just use it within the specified timeframe and there may be terms and conditions. Here’s what you should do:

Select the item that you want to buy and add to the cart.
During the checkout, you’ll be asked if you’ve got any promo code. Either that or look for the promo code box.
Copy and paste the code into the box and finish the order.
Before paying, you might want to confirm that the is reflected in the total – look for a line item that deducts the value of the coupon code.

Note: StockX occasionally offers special student discounts.

How Does StockX Work If You’re a Seller

Since its launch in 2015, StockX has grown to become one of the largest sneakers marketplaces. It works as a bid/ask online exchange, where buyers can bid for items and sellers can ask for a specific price for their products. Just like the stock market if you’re familiar with the bids and asks.

However, keep in mind that the sneakers must be new and can’t show scuffs on the sole or anywhere else, such as if they’ve been tried on. The watches and handbags can be pre-owned but must be in mint condition.

Once you decide what you want to sell, you can either get the StockX app or use the website. The app is available both for Android and iOS users. Here’s what you should do next:

Get on the app or the website.
Search for the product that you want to sell and click on it.
On the product page, you’ll see the asking prices from other sellers, if any. Moreover, you’ll see bids from buyers.
Figure out what you’re going to ask for and click on ‘Sell.’
After that, you’ll see a size window for selecting the size that you have in stock.
There are now two options. You can tap on ‘Ask’ to give your asking price for the item. Or else you can click on ‘Sell now’ to sell to the highest bidder.

After a sale, you’ll see all the fees. StockX charges new sellers a 10% transaction fee, which goes down as you become established on the site.

How Does StockX Work If You’re a Buyer

There are some fantastic deals and exclusive drops on the site. In addition to designer sneakers, you can also purchase pre-owned watches and handbags in excellent condition. To buy on StockX, you need to launch the website or open the app. When you do that, here are the other steps:

Firstly, you must select a payment method you want to use. This can be PayPal or a credit card.
Then, find the item you want to buy.
If you want, you can buy it right away. Alternatively, you can place a bid and wait. If a seller accepts the bid, the product is yours. The money will be withdrawn from the chosen payment method.
After that, everything is up to the buyer. They’ll be responsible for sending the product.

The best thing about StockX is the authenticity of the items sold. When you make a purchase, before the package gets to you from the seller, it has to go through verification first at StockX. Plus, the folks at StockX will also usually check if the seller sent the correct size and other relevant specs.

StockX shows all the data on your profile. This allows you to see your current bids, past purchases, and the total amount of money spent so far.
