We’ve all seen it — listings online that read:
"Used queen mattress, minor stains, very comfy — $500 firm."
The truth? You’ll be lucky to get $5 — let alone $500.
If you’re hoping to cash out your mattress, here’s what’s really happening behind the scenes.
Most people won’t even consider a used mattress unless:
It’s under 1 year old
Spotless and odour-free
Comes with delivery
Is from a trusted brand (like Sealy or Simmons)
Even then, the market is tiny — and full of buyers offering $30, max.
So if you’re pricing your mattress at $500…
😬 You’re probably going to be ghosted.

Buyers worry about:
Bedbugs
Smells
Sweat stains
Unknown usage history
And even if your mattress is near-perfect, they’ll still ask: “Can deliver for free?”
🔄 That’s where time gets wasted — and your ad goes stale.
