What makes a good Depop listing description?
Keep it short and scannable — Depop buyers use mobile and won't read walls of text. Cover: era/style, brand, condition (with specific flaws noted), measurements (chest, length, waist as applicable), and your sizing notes (runs small/large, vintage sizing). Add relevant hashtags at the end. Lead with the most important detail. Example: '90s Champion reverse weave crew. Fading to print but structure is solid. Chest 56cm, length 68cm. Fits L–XL.' That's all you need.

Key things to know for Australian sellers
Australian online selling has its own quirks: GST registration thresholds, Australia Post rate structures, and platform-specific buyer behaviour differ from the US and UK advice you'll find most readily online. Checking ATO guidance directly and using the Australia Post postage calculator for accurate quotes are good starting points.
Using multiple platforms together
Most successful Australian resellers end up selling across at least two platforms. The marginal effort to list on a second platform is much lower if you already have photos and a description, and reaching two different buyer pools meaningfully increases your chances of a sale.
