Play It Again Sports at 18851 East Hampden Avenue, suite 185, in Aurora, Colorado, gives athletes and weekend recreation seekers across the southeast Denver metro a place to buy, sell, and trade used sports and fitness gear instead of paying full price for equipment that a kid or an adult may only use for a season or two. The store covers a wide span of categories rather than specializing in a single sport, stocking gear for golf, hockey, baseball and softball, football, general fitness, winter sports, soccer, lacrosse, track and field, and volleyball, which makes it a practical stop for households juggling more than one sport across different kids or different seasons of the year.
The buy sell trade model at the heart of the business is straightforward: customers can bring in gear they no longer use and walk out with payment the same day, with no appointment required and no drop off and wait process. The store markets this as constantly buying gear directly from the local community, meaning the inventory on the floor at any given time reflects what nearby families, athletes, and teams are actually clearing out, rather than a fixed shipment from a distributor. That local sourcing is a meaningful differentiator from a big box sporting goods retailer, since the secondhand selection changes continuously and pricing sits well below new retail for comparable equipment, letting a growing kid move up in skate size or a new golfer test out a set of clubs without the full cost commitment of buying new.
Play It Again Sports operates as a franchise network across North America, and this Aurora location functions within that broader system while serving its own local base of customers along the East Hampden Avenue corridor, an area within reach of Cherry Creek State Park, the Aurora Mall retail district, and the dense residential neighborhoods that make up southeast Aurora. Families outfitting kids for a new youth sports season, adults picking up a fitness routine without committing to full priced equipment, or anyone wanting to offload skis, golf clubs, or a weight bench taking up garage space can treat this store as a two way marketplace rather than a one directional retailer. The ability to sell gently used equipment for cash on the spot also gives the store a practical sustainability angle, since gear that might otherwise sit unused or get thrown away instead gets a second life with another athlete or family in the area.
Anyone in Aurora or the surrounding southeast Denver suburbs looking to sell outgrown or unused sports equipment, or looking to outfit a new season of play at a lower cost, can call the store directly at 303-627-6301 to ask what categories of gear it is currently buying, since demand for specific sports and equipment types shifts with the seasons. In short, Play It Again Sports in Aurora is a local buy sell trade sporting goods store where used equipment across nearly every major sport gets a second chance with a new owner at a fraction of its original price.
