Optical practices and distributors across Australia and New Zealand often hold prior-season stock that ties up capital and shelf space. Last Seasons gives you a direct channel to turn that inventory into revenue, without the friction of traditional liquidation or secondhand markets. Request a quote for surplus eyewear stock today and get a valuation based on current market demand for new, unworn frames.
Last Seasons deals only in new, unworn prior-season optical frames and sunglasses from established brands. Never secondhand goods. That distinction matters: it means your surplus stock valuation reflects retail-grade quality, not salvage pricing. We don’t accept prescription-fitted frames, returned patient goods, or damaged items for liquidation, because our marketplace serves consumers who want pristine condition at a discount.
You want a simple process when you’re ready to sell frames for cash Australia-wide, without negotiating with multiple buyers. Submit your inventory details through our quote form, and we assess only eligible prior-season models from recognised manufacturers. This service is built for trade sellers who already know that discontinued colourways still hold value when they’re in original, saleable condition.
Prior-season frames keep their full structural integrity and brand authenticity, even in a discontinued colourway or model. So your inventory request should specify model numbers, quantities, and confirmed new condition. That’s what avoids delays at the initial review stage.
Valuation relies on verifiable data: brand recognition, model specificity, confirmed new condition. Not subjective appraisals, and not generic category averages. When you request a surplus stock valuation, we cross-reference your list against live marketplace demand and recent transaction history for identical SKUs. AIKO EYEWEAR 2214 frames in satin gunmetal are a good example of the kind of current-condition prior-season stock eligible for valuation. Specific model identification is what drives accurate pricing.
Your quote reflects what the market will actually pay for these frames now, not their original wholesale cost or an outdated catalogue price. Understanding pricing surplus optical frames before selling helps set realistic expectations before you submit your inventory list for formal assessment. Free Australia-wide shipping applies to all transactions, which cuts overhead for sellers moving surplus stock and improves net recovery compared with platforms that charge listing or fulfilment fees.
Brands like STEPPER EYEWEAR and AIKO EYEWEAR perform well in our marketplace because Australian consumers trust their build quality and design heritage. Frame consignment valuations prioritise these established names over unbranded or obscure labels that lack secondary market liquidity.
Accurate quotes depend on the precision of the information you give us about each frame in your surplus holding. Supply exact model numbers, colourway names, bridge and temple measurements, and confirmation that every unit is unworn with original packaging intact. Missing specifications force us to come back and ask, which extends the timeline for your assessment.
Check that no frames have been fitted with prescription lenses or adjusted for patients before you list them for valuation. Our marketplace can’t process liquidation requests for any item that shows signs of wear, adjustment marks, or lens insertion, whatever the brand or original retail price. Reviewing previous season glasses frames quality standards before submission heads off the most common disqualifications and keeps your assessment moving.
Organise your inventory by brand and model family. It streamlines the evaluation for both of us.
This marketplace connects optical businesses with style-conscious consumers who want quality branded eyewear without paying full retail price. You get a dedicated audience already looking for prior-season models, unlike general auction sites where eyewear competes against unrelated categories for attention. Sellers looking to sell prior season frames for cash in Australia find that targeted placement converts faster than broad-reach alternatives.
Free Australia-wide shipping applies to all transactions, which cuts overhead for sellers moving surplus stock and preserves margin on discounted frames. Our platform handles customer service, returns, and logistics, so you can focus on running the practice instead of chasing individual sales enquiries. Explore optical stock clearance opportunities to see how your listed frames appear to end buyers browsing the marketplace.
We hold strict condition standards that protect brand equity while delivering real value to consumers. Your surplus stock moves through a channel that respects the product’s original positioning, rather than treating it as distressed merchandise.
Australian optical practices can expect a formal quote within two business days of submitting complete inventory details through our assessment form. Incomplete submissions, or missing specifications, will stretch that timeframe, because we can’t generate accurate valuations without verified model and condition data. Once you accept the quote and ship the approved stock, payment processing begins as soon as we receive and verify it at our facility.
Speed matters when you’re clearing space for new collections or reconciling end-of-year accounts. The entire cycle, from your first inventory request to funds in your account, typically wraps up within ten business days for sellers who prepare their documentation upfront. Delays happen only when a submitted list needs back-and-forth clarification about eligibility or condition.
Prompt communication during the assessment phase keeps your liquidation timeline predictable.

There is no fixed minimum quantity for requesting a quote, but very small lots may not justify the administrative effort of assessment and logistics. We evaluate each submission on its merits, considering brand mix, model desirability, and total value potential. If your holding is limited to one or two frames, contact us first to confirm whether a formal valuation is appropriate.
No, we accept only new, unworn prior-season frames and sunglasses in original saleable condition. Secondhand goods, prescription-fitted frames, and patient returns are ineligible regardless of brand or apparent condition. This policy maintains marketplace integrity and ensures buyers receive products matching retail-grade expectations.
We work with established optical brands recognised by Australian consumers for quality and design, such as AIKO EYEWEAR and STEPPER EYEWEAR. Unbranded frames, fashion-only labels without optical heritage, and unknown manufacturers typically do not meet our eligibility criteria. Submit your brand list for assessment if you are uncertain whether your stock qualifies.
Payment processing begins immediately once we receive and verify your shipped stock matches the quoted inventory. Funds typically transfer within three business days of verification completion, assuming no condition discrepancies arise during inspection. Total turnaround from quote acceptance to payment depends primarily on shipping transit times and submission accuracy.
