Where to sell near brand new good tap shoes?

Hello! Shortly after purchasing a pair of 9M Roxys, I realized that I should’ve gone for a 9.5 because my toes begin to hurt after wearing them for just 20 minutes. I’ve learned since then that I have arthritis in one of my big toes, so I definitely need to go for a larger size. Now I’m stuck with a pair of basically brand new shoes (worn in literally one hour long tap class).

Unfortunately these are about a year old now & I’ve thrown out the receipt so there’s no hope of a refund. I’m getting back into dance and want to purchase a roomier pair, and just want to not be out all $210 I paid. Any advice on how/where to sell these? Currently on both my depop & Facebook market place, but I’ve had no bites and am getting ancy. I’m not in a place financially where I can buy another $200 pair without selling the old ones first.

Any advice would be helpful! I understand I should’ve returned them right away, hindsite is 2020 huh?

(I’d even sell them for as low as like $125, it’s just that all the depop tap shoes are only selling for around $20 which I just CAN’T justify)

Thank you!!!!

Best tap dance board for home (beginner)

Hi, just started learning tap dancing and am looking for any recommendations for a tap dance board I can use at home.

I am based in the UK, and lots of tap dance brands aren't available over here (aka AMP, Stagestep etc.). Price range is £100-£200, looking for something that makes great tap sounds and can be used on non-carpeted floors.

Thanks!

Are tan tap shoes “lame”?

I’m a beginner adult and I’ve only seen people wear black. But there are some tan shoes in my size for a good price on Poshmark I’m tempted to purchase. I’d definitely prefer black, and I don’t want to look like a grandma or something.

Is this part of tap culture in any way?

2 hours in my tap shoes after 15 years

I finally found them at my parents house!! I’ve been looking for at least 2 years. I’d been itching to tap again.

Tap shoe recommendations

Hi, i teach prek-1st grade tap and broke my Capezio tele tone shoes. Like the toe is almost completely ripped off lol. Any recommendations on a shoe that won't break easily but also doesn't cost an arm and a leg? Thank you in advance!!

New to tap: how do you remember the practice drills to do at home?

I just took my first tap class (and first dance class ever!) last week, and I realized after class that my brain could not remember all of the practice drills we were taught in class.

I’m such a notetaker, I cannot remember verbal instructions very well so I write everything down. But I can’t take notes during class, so I looked up beginner exercises and wrote down as much as I could remember once I got home. But does anyone have any advice on remembering it all?

I will ask my instructor if I’m allowed to record myself during class, too.

Thanks in advance!
