Ten Photos. That's All. How to Photograph Vintage Levi's for an Offer

Sam Wingenbach, California Vintage Buyers. November 6, 2026. 28 sec.

The ten photos a buyer needs to price vintage Levi's from anywhere: the front and back laid flat, the red tab from both sides, the back patch, every tag including the small care tag, the back of the top button, the back pockets and rivets, the cuff turned up, and the waist and inseam measured beside a tape. Add a close photo of any damage, shoot in daylight with the flash off, and text them to (949) 449-1255 for a free answer the same day. From any state, we then look at the pair with you on a free video appraisal.
