We were tired of losing 13% every time we sold a camera. So we built the alternative.
Every photographer has gear sitting in a drawer — a camera body from two upgrades ago, a lens that doesn’t fit the new system. Selling it has always meant handing 10–13% to platforms that treat your camera like a used blender.
Aperture was built to fix that. America’s first dedicated camera gear marketplace — flat listing fee, zero commission, audience entirely photographers.
We believe photographers should keep what they earn. Full stop.
We only do cameras and photography gear. Better search, better filters, buyers who understand what they’re buying.
Our flat fee model means we make money when you list — not when you sell.
This is a marketplace for photographers, by photographers.
$4.99 to list. $0 commission. No fine print, no tiered fees, no surprises.
You worked for the money you spent on gear. Keep the money you make selling it.
Every feature we build is for photographers. Our roadmap is community-driven.
Seller verification, secure messaging, buyer protection, community ratings.
America’s first dedicated camera gear marketplace. List for $4.99. Keep everything.
