Description
Selling my Columbia Classic windbreaker jacket in XL size. The jacket is in excellent quality and condition, with very minimal signs of use. I purchased it for personal use, but I usually wear a Large (L), so the XL fit is too big for me and I haven't worn it much. Condition Clean and well-maintained No tears, holes, or major stains Lightly used due to sizing issue

Before you commit to any pre-loved item in the clothing category, a quick checklist helps you avoid surprises. The listing above shows photos, condition notes, and seller details — use them alongside these guidelines to make a confident purchase.
Inspect the photos carefully
Zoom into every image. Look for wear patterns on seams, cuffs, collars, and zippers. Natural daylight shots reveal stains or discolouration that flash photography can hide. If a listing has only one photo, ask the seller for additional angles before agreeing to meet.
Verify sizing in centimetres
Tag sizes vary across Korean, Japanese, European, and US brands. Message the seller for chest, length, shoulder, and inseam measurements in centimetres. This single question prevents the most common return disputes on Nepal's thrift market.
Meet in a safe public place
Popular meet-up spots in Kathmandu Valley include Labim Mall, Civil Mall, and coffee shops in Thamel, Jhamsikhel, or Pulchowk. Daylight hours are best. Bring a friend when possible, and inspect the item fully before handing over cash.
Pay on delivery, not in advance
ThriftFind recommends cash-on-delivery or in-person payment after inspection. Never send advance deposits or eSewa/Khalti transfers to sellers you haven't met, especially if you're being pressured to pay quickly — that's a classic scam pattern.
