Read from Nifty's own site on 7 August 2026. Every row links to its source — check it before relying on a price.
The short answer

Switching from Nifty
What comes across
Your live listings from eBay, Depop, Grailed and Shopify — photos and details included. You reconnect each marketplace directly, so no export from Nifty is needed.

What you set up again
