eBay Sneaker Marketplace
Before social media and the laundry list of online startups, eBay was the original sneaker marketplace. The platform has built a reputation as a destination for must-have new releases, rare collectibles, and the most sought-after collabs. To add to their credibility, they're also ensuring those new kicks are genuine. With the no-fee Authenticity Guarantee service, collectible sneakers — now including Jordan, Nike, Yeezy, Adidas, New Balance, Puma, Asics, Converse, Vans, and Reebok sneakers — over $100 are verified by an authentication partner. Pre-owned condition sneakers priced $300+ in the same brands also qualify. An NFC tag is fastened to each pair of sneakers and activated with a digital stamp of authenticity, customized with the sneakers' details, before they're delivered to the buyer. With the combination of selection, value, and authenticity, eBay continues to remain a trusted choice for sneaker collectors.
