When I was an overseas student in Japan, the second-hand shop was the best place to buy interior things. As you know, the cost of living in Japan is quite high and I have limited money for living. The second-hand shop is the best choice for people living in Japan temporarily.
There are many second-hand shops all over Japan such as Book Off, Hard Off, and 2nd Street. If you don't mind used goods, you might be lucky to find good products for cheap and in great condition. I often come here to try to find things in excellent condition that I can sell again. Lol
I walked into the shop and saw various kind of products such as clothes, bags, shoes, toys, brand name products, electrical equipment, and musical equipment. I sometimes spend around 2-3 hours at the kitchen and bag corners. I like to look at Japanese dishes with beautiful colors and elegant patterns.
Used clothes, shoes, or anything else from Japan are popular in Thailand, and it seems that second-hand shops are booming there too. Most Thai people say products from Japan are of good quality. They especially like made in Japan products.
You can not only buy products at these shops, you can also sell things that you don't use. I’ve even sold some shoes and clothes at the second-hand shops. Is there a second-hand shop in your country?
