I sometimes do second-hand shopping because it is cheap and thrifty. If you can look for good quality second-hand products, this market is worth a try. Buying and selling used products also help the environment and the world to be sustainable.
Is buying or selling secondhand things online a good way of shopping?
If it is, because that way if you sell you can give another use to that thing you don't need and earn money just as if you buy something used you can pay less and have a good quality item.
I would say buying secondhand item is a very practical way of shopping. Instead of buying a brand new item, we have options to buy items at a thrift store or through online selling platform. Secondhand item are often sold at a very reasonable price.
Yesterday I put a cooler fan to sale, it's my first thing that I sale through the internet. My espectation is very low because it is something cheap so I had to put a low price and I'm new in the plataform where it is been sale and you know when you start in wherever plataform, your products or services doesn't are the first to be see, so I wish luck for me and for all salesman that are beginig sale anything in that world.
Yes buying and selling second hand things online is a good way of shopping.
Yes, it's a good way of shopping. Second hand things get you very cheaply and good condition. It's best way to shopping. I like it.
I think it really good everyone who don`t need from something to sell or donate in different places. In that way you can have the item which you need for less money and you can give it your money for something important like a subject or services... Even and I sell many things, the last thing is my baby new clothes /why we need to keep unnecessary items, when we can make place for other/. I support that small business.
