I've shifted to buying a lot of things used but I still can't wrap my head around buying used clothing most of the time. There is an overwhelming selection of choices, and even if I sift through all of that to find the sort of stuff I need chances are it isn't going to fit well.

Poshmark helps for some things, but only if it's like a discrete, easily categorized item that I can clearly for (like a specific brand of hat, or a specific line of pants from a specific brand that I already know fit). I'm appreciative of brands that have started carrying their own used clothing sections - even though it's usually more expensive it's so much easier to wrap my head around.

Contrast that with things like electronics or household items which I go used for all day every day. I needed a rice cooker, bought a used Zojirushi off a local guy within a week, easy as pie.
