Sneakerheads are leaving eBay to shop and sell on a hot new startup that has attracted investments from celebrities that include Mark Wahlberg, Eminem, and Wale. StockX is an e-commerce site that works much like a stock market, but it is where the buyers and sellers bid on sneakers, streetwear, watches, and handbags.
“StockX is the world’s first stock market for things – a live ‘bid/ask’ marketplace,” StockX says. “Buyers place bids, sellers place asks and when a bid and ask meet, the transaction happens automatically. Retro Jordans, Nikes, Yeezys and more – now 100% authentic guaranteed.” StockX sells authentic sneakers from Adidas, Air Jordan, Nike, Asics, Diadora, Li Ning, Louis Vuitton, New Balance, Puma, Reebok, Saucony, and Under Armour.
