Somewhere in your wardrobe, there's a jacket you haven't touched in eighteen months. You know the one. Maybe it's a Stone Island shadow project piece from a season you can still name, or an Avirex MA-1 folded into a box because it stopped fitting into your current life even though it fits your shoulders perfectly. If you're looking to sell streetwear in Zürich, Bloc Magasin is the simplest place to start, and that jacket deserves a better fate than slow suffocation in the dark. Bring it to us.
Yes, We Buy and Take Consignment at Bloc Magasin
No portal. No rubric. No six-page form to decode at midnight before you can even begin.
Bloc Magasin works directly with the people who walk in, write in, and message in. Based in Zürich-West at Flüelastrasse 16, the shop works mainly on consignment for authentic designer and streetwear pieces — that's our preferred way of working, though a straight purchase is sometimes possible too depending on the piece. Whatever you have, message us and we'll go from there. You won't wait weeks for a response. We price in CHF, handle Swiss bank transfers, and avoid creating friction where there genuinely doesn't need to be any.
The whole thing is simpler than most people expect.
What Types of Pieces We're Interested In
The clearest filter: if it's something you'd expect to find on our shelves, it's worth sending a message.
Stone Island, Canada Goose, Avirex, Evisu, C.P. Company, Rick Owens, Casablanca, Nike, ASICS, and labels that orbit that same territory are all actively interesting. Luxury bags in solid condition also work. That list isn't exhaustive. If you're sitting on something adjacent to those names without quite fitting the list, reach out anyway. The worst outcome is we pass, and we'll tell you so directly.
Brands We Actively Stock
To get a feel for the quality level and condition we're working toward, browse our current Avirex collection, check out what we stock in Canada Goose, explore our Casablanca selection, or see our C.P. Company pieces. Think of it less as a catalogue and more as a tuning fork: if your piece is in the same frequency, we're interested.
Condition Matters
A piece from exactly the right label in rough shape is genuinely harder for us to work with than a lesser-known piece that looks like it was carefully stored and barely worn. Condition runs alongside brand, not below it. One concrete ask: please make sure whatever you send is clean and freshly washed before reaching out — that alone saves a lot of back-and-forth. Before you reach out, do a quick self-check. Knowing how to verify authenticity before you sell makes the conversation faster for both of us, and it helps you walk in knowing what you actually have.
Three Ways to Reach Us About Your Pieces
Pick whichever channel is easiest. All three reach the same team.
Email Us
Send photos and a brief description to info@bloc-magasin.ch. Clear shots in natural light, front and back, with labels or tags visible where they're relevant. That's all you need to get a real conversation started. No essay required.
Message on Instagram
Find us at @blocmagasin and send a DM. A lot of people start here because it's quick: you attach the photos directly, and if you're already following us, you've got a working sense of what we're drawn to before you even write a word. It's also the fastest way to get a first read on whether something fits before drafting a longer message.
Message us at +41 78 480 51 21. Same approach as the others: a few photos and a short description of what you have. If you're in Switzerland and this is how you communicate, it works just as well as anything else.
What Happens Next
We look at what you've sent and come back to you. If the piece is something we want to pursue, the conversation continues with condition, provenance where it's relevant, and pricing. For consignment, our split is straightforward: you get 75% of the sale price, we take a 25% commission for handling photography, listing, and the sale itself. If it's not a fit, we'll say so directly rather than leaving your message to age unanswered in an inbox.
We don't promise specific turnaround times, because volume varies and some conversations are more involved than others. We do respond. If you've sent photos and a description to any of the three channels and haven't heard back within a few days, follow up. We're a small team in Zürich-West, not a logistics operation running a ticket system from a warehouse outside the city.
For anyone who wants to discuss things in person, you're welcome at Flüelastrasse 16, 8048 Zürich-West. Contact us first to arrange a time. We do private appointments for consignment consultations, and that's a substantially better experience than arriving cold during a busy afternoon when the room is already full.
Why Sell to Bloc Magasin
We know what these pieces are worth because we buy and sell them regularly. You're not walking into a conversation where you have to convince someone that what you're holding has value. A Stone Island shadow project jacket or a first-run Avirex MA-1 isn't just a used jacket to us. We understand the production era, the details that actually matter, what a knowledgeable buyer will look for and what they'll pay. That kind of literacy in the room changes the whole negotiation.
The platform also matters more than people think. Selling through a dedicated streetwear and designer boutique in Zürich means your piece reaches buyers who came specifically looking for it, not scrolling past it on a general resale platform somewhere between a pair of Zara jeans and a broken espresso machine. A specific audience, and that specificity works in your favour.
