Decision support for sneaker sellers

Output decision

Pick the higher payout only if the item type also fits the marketplace. Deadstock hype pairs, used condition, and apparel-adjacent items can sell differently.

Next action

Verify your StockX account rate, choose the matching GOAT seller fee, then paste the copied payout into your buy sheet before making an offer.

Risk prevented

Old tier tables, missing GOAT cash-out, and wrong seller-fee assumptions can overstate profit on thin sneaker flips.
