Q: A shop that you like.

A: My favorite shop, not a real shop, but it’s a good place or you can say a good space for me to find treasure. Every city all have them own second hand market, but I don’t like to find pretty things go every shop one by one, so I love online second-hand market. For others, maybe it’s only an app, but for me, that’s my magic box. I think you know it’s named xian yu. If you don’t try my secret rules, you only can see whole page rubbish. But I have my own secret rules, so I can find a lot of interesting things, so I can use the most cheap price to buy something you can’t find today. For example, I want to buy a shoes, but maybe this shoes born on 2007 and now we can’t find the new one. But I can find the near-new one on the xianyu and only pay a little money to get this one.

Maybe this shoes on today have high price, but maybe 10 years ago only like a ordinary shoes. You can buy them on the shopping mall. So a lot of people, they don’t know this shoes is a special style, they only go to the shopping mall and say “this color is perfect” and buy them and go home. And 10 years later, they think the age of these shoes are too old so they want to sell them. If they don’t sell them, maybe these shoes would go to the rubbish bin. Because this is the online second hand market, we can’t face to face, so I always ask them “can you give me more discount”.

On xian yu, I have two accounts. We can do a auction on xianyu, and a lot of sellers, they do this for life. So they named “zhi ye mai jia”, and a lot of things they sell one yuan. And everyone can give your price. Recently, I join a auction and got a bape shirt and this one have long history. I don’t see this one on the market.
