I’m honestly still a little in shock. We’ve raised over $600 already for Lumikha!!!! ♥️

This kind of support means a lot, especially toward recovering from the fraud attack. A special shout out to for the generous gift, and to everyone supporting monthly! THANK YOU, it means more than you can understand 😭

And while one-time donations help in big moments like this, what keeps Lumikha running long-term is monthly support! Right now we’re at $85 / $350 per month, which means we’re not sustainable yet, but we’re getting closer.

Even small support makes a real difference!!

✨ $3/month
✨ $5/month
✨ $10/month

Small support adds up in a BIG way.

If Lumikha has helped you buy, sell, or rehome cosplay, becoming a monthly supporter is one of the most impactful ways to help keep it running.

And a little context about the fraud attack:

In 2022, fraudsters used Lumikha to attempt thousands of transactions with stolen credit cards on our site. Stripe didn't catch it, and because of that, when the legitimate cardholders realized these charges, they filed chargebacks, and all of that debt came back to me.

This is why your support means SO much. Every bit truly helps!

Keep Lumikha Cosplay Resale online🎀

Lumikha Cosplay Resale turns 5 years old this year! 🥳🎉

What started as an idea in 2019, then founded in 2021, has grown into a thriving marketplace with $60,000+ in cosplay resale, 4,600+ listings, and 5,000+ users.

But keeping Lumikha online comes with real costs: $350/month for hosting and essential tools. For most of the past five years, I’ve covered this personally.

🩷 You can help keep Lumikha running! Even a small monthly Ko-fi membership goes a long way. If just 70 people support at $5/month, the marketplace can be sustained long-term.

Without this support, the marketplace will likely have to close, as financial hardship has made this difficult to manage on my own.

In 2022, Lumikha was impacted by a fraud attack that left the platform with nearly $2,000 in payment processor debt. While the main focus of this campaign is making the platform sustainable going forward, one-time donations also help reduce that balance and move Lumikha toward a healthier future.

Thank you for all your ongoing support! Let’s keep Lumikha alive, together.

These are easy ways to make your cosplaying more sustainable. 🩷🩵

🩷Buy Secondhand First
Check resale platforms like Lumikha Cosplay Resale before buying new to reduce waste and extend a costume’s life.

🩵Reuse & Rework Old Cosplays
Restyle wigs, repaint props, or remix pieces into new looks instead of starting from scratch.

🩷Borrow or Swap with Friends!
Trade costumes within your community to save money and reduce overproduction.

🩵Repair, Don’t Replace
Fix seams, re-glue props, and patch tears to keep your cosplay convention-ready.

🩷Use on hand materials
Instead of purchasing new foam, cardboard, or paper, try to reuse what you already have around your home.

🩵Do closet cosplays
Casual and closet cosplays are a great way to have fun and cosplay with regular clothes you have in your closet.

🩷Wear your costumes again and again!
Don’t feel the need to debut a new cosplay at every con.
Change your makeup, wig styling, etc if you want to upgrade your cosplay!

🩵Get creative!
The easiest solution you’ll hear is to “just buy it.” But by getting creative with materials and techniques, you can make a ton and have more fun!

REDUCE, REUSE, RECOSPLAY!🎀

Integrate these 3 pillars into your 2026 cosplay plan.

REDUCE:
Reduce the number of new costumes you make per year. By cutting down on new materials, shipping costs, and bought costumes, you reduce your carbon footprint.

The less you buy, the less you’re likely to waste!

REUSE:
Reuse materials from costumes you already finished, or repurpose props & pieces from old costumes.

“stash busting” cosplay projects will let you flex creativity and use up material!

RECOSPLAY:
Recosplay cosplays you’ve done before. Do them again! There will always be folks who haven’t seen the costume, or those who will be excited to see it again!

You can always improve, change details, and take photos in new locations.

Share these tips to encourage others to do the same! 🩷🩵

As a cosplayer, I wanted to solve one of the greatest problems I had as a cosplayer...what to do with my costumes after my body or interests changed?

I'm Leah, the founder of Lumikha Cosplay Resale & a Black cosplayer of 10 years!! For , I would LOVE if you'd share my business with someone you know. Word of mouth is the BIGGEST way that Lumikha Cosplay Resale has grown in the past couple of years, and it would mean the world to me to see it grow even more this year.

And if you can, please support us on Ko-fi, where you can contribute towards the growing costs of running a growing online marketplace. The link is in our bio, or you can go to ko-fi.com/lumikha!

I'm continuing to work hard to bring the cosplay market to more cons, to expand our platform, and to make cosplay a more sustainable hobby to have fun in!

Thank you for your support! 🙌🏾

Let's kick off the new year with doing something plenty of us have been putting off... Selling our unworn cosplays! I challenge you to pull out at least one costume you've been meaning to sell, and list it on Lumikha this month!

Lumikha Cosplay Resale makes it simple to list your cosplay items for free, with only a 10% fee when a sale is completed. You can use PayPal Business or Stripe to process your sales, and we've helped cosplayers to rehome over 1600 items in the 5 years we've been open.

Let's make 2026 even bigger & better 🩷🩵

Happy New Year! ✨
