StockX is set to host its second-ever sample sale.
After hosting its first sample sale in New York City in March, the marketplace will host another this weekend in the Big Apple. The sample sale will take place at its Drop-Off location, which is located at 237 Lafayette St. in NYC’s SoHo neighborhood.
The sample sale, which will be open to the public, will have more than 400 sneakers, apparel and collectible items available. The items will be sold at up to 40 percent off market price. StockX revealed some of the items that will be sold at the sample sale, including the Kaws Alone Time Bronze Figure, the Nike Dunk Low Off-White “Lot 4”, the Adidas Yeezy Boost 350 “Pirate Black”, the Supreme Box Logo long-sleeve T-shirt in white and the Kith x X-Men x Asics Gel Lyte 3.
StockX said via statement that the products are considered non-deadstock items, meaning they didn’t meet its deadstock condition standard due to things such as damaged boxes, missing accessories or small cosmetic defects. Because of this, the items cannot be listed on the platform.
StockX said shoppers are limited to three purchases and will have 10 minutes to shop in store.
What’s more, StockX said attendees will also have the chance to win the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG “Lost and Found” via social giveaway. You have to be one of the first 25 people at the sample on Saturday to enter, and you must show the StockX staff its giveaway post on X at the store’s entrance. The winner will be announced in person at 2 p.m. ET at the Drop-Off, and you must be present at the time of the announcement to claim the prize.
The sample sale will be open May 18 and May 19 from 12 p.m. ET to 6 p.m. ET.
