What numbers will I see on a result?
Resale price — the median of what similar items actually sold for recently (not asking prices). Sold comps — a badge showing how much recent sold activity backed the estimate (15+ sold, 5–14, or fewer than 5 in the last 30 days). Sell-through — the percentage of listed items that sold, shown when enough comps exist to trust it. Market signal — SOLID, MIXED, or PASS (see below).
What is the market signal (SOLID / MIXED / PASS)?
A quick read on demand from your comps and sell-through. ✓ SOLID — strong comps and sell-through; clear market picture. ~ MIXED — worth a closer look before you decide. ✗ PASS — thin data or soft demand; easy pass unless you love the piece. It describes the market — not a buy command. You still decide at the rack.
What does sell-through rate mean?
Sell-through rate is the percentage of listed items that actually sold in the lookback window. Higher sell-through usually means stronger buyer demand. threquity shows it as SELL-THRU on your result when enough recent sold listings exist to interpret it reliably.
Why is sell-through sometimes hidden?
When fewer than five similar items sold in the last 30 days, the market is too thin to interpret sell-through honestly. You may still see a resale price and a light-activity comp badge — but not a sell-through percentage until activity is stronger.
Why might the price seem wrong?
Estimates reflect recent sold listings for similar items — not asking prices, and not your specific condition, flaws, or local market. One-of-a-kind pieces, heavy wear, or a misidentified item can all widen the gap. threquity gives you a market anchor in seconds; you set the final price and make the call at the rack.
Why is there no pricing for my item?
Some items have very little resale market activity — obscure brands, extremely niche pieces, or misreads from a blurry photo. Try a clearer garment photo with good light and the full item visible. If comps are still thin, that often means the market itself is thin — useful to know before you buy.
How do I get better scan results?
Include a clear label photo when you can (brand and size help). For the garment, use even light, a simple background, and show the full item flat or on a hanger. Obscured labels or busy backgrounds make identification harder. Retry from the results screen if a lookup fails.
