We're saving Kiwis money on every sale. If we've saved you some, feel free to pay it forward.
The other guys charge success fees — a percentage of every sale you make, straight into their pockets. Sell a $500 laptop and you could be handing over $30 or more just in fees, before you've even wrapped it for the courier.
On SellShit, listing is free. Selling is free. What you agree to with the buyer is exactly what lands in your bank account. That's the whole point.
We're not asking for a cut of your sales. But if SellShit has saved you money — or if you just think this kind of platform should exist — we'd love a coffee. ☕
Running this site costs around ~$250 / month in server and infrastructure costs — paid out of pocket, with no ads and no investor money. Direct bank transfer — no fees, no payment processors, no faff. Just good old NZ banking.
Any amount is appreciated. Even a couple of bucks buys us a coffee and keeps the lights on. Receipts available on request — email us at [email protected].
Send us a donation and let us know your username — we'll mark your account as a ♥ Supporter. Your listings will stand out in search results with a golden glow, making them more visible to buyers.
Here's what a supporter listing looks like:
To claim your highlight: donate via bank transfer, then email [email protected] with your username and a screenshot of the transfer. We'll sort it within 24 hours.
SellShit is run by volunteers. Listings are moderated by real humans who donate their time to keep the site clean and safe. Your donation goes directly towards server costs — not salaries. We're not a startup, we're not chasing investment. We're just people who think this should exist.
Not feeling the donation? Put that saved cash somewhere that'll do even more good. Here are a few New Zealand organisations doing incredible work:
These are independent charities — we have no affiliation with them, we just reckon they deserve your support.
