Have fun with cosplay!
DONT'S
Specify their gender, race, disability in a compliment.
Treat cosplayers like their characters...they aren't!

Now more than ever sourcing second hand for costumes should become a part of the cosplay community. Even if you can't find what you're looking for, you may find things for others, or be able to rehome pieces you'll never wear again.

This past weekend, Lumikha Cosplay Resale temporarily closed. Thank you to all who have supported us. As a small business owner I often struggle to reach out for help, as I take on all of the day to day operations of the marketplace and the financial burden of running a marketplace. #cosplay

In the past 4.5 years, Lumikha has rehomed hundreds of costumes, props, wigs and more.

We’ve hosted 5 in person cosplay markets, rehoming 75+ items at these pop up events alone.

Due to financial hardship, the repeated abuse of the platform (offsite transactions), attacks by scammers, and the increase in cost of maintaining the platform, Lumikha Cosplay Resale is currently down.

If you would like to support the platform moving forward, please consider supporting on Ko-fi, where we have migrated all donations and support.

I’m doing my best to keep the platform going, but it has honestly been very difficult to do so in the last year.
