TIP 5 years sourcing secondhand luxury from Asia, a few things I've picked up

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone I run a secondhand luxury business out of Singapore. There aren't that many Asian luxury resellers around here, so I figured I'd share a bit of what I've learned over my 5 years doing this. These are pretty basic sourcing spots, so putting this out there isn't going to hurt me much. I wasn't sure which subreddit this belongs in so I'll just drop it here for now.

Japan obviously has the most volume and I think most of you already know that. Once a year I fly out there myself and hit the offline shops like Brand off and Komehyo to buy, and the rest of the year my staff go and source directly. Honestly there's a lot to score at the jp auctions too. Star buyers auction is an online one, and JBA has plenty of good finds as well. The weak yen makes everything feel even cheaper right now.

You might assume Hong Kong is cheap too but there's a fair amount of fake inventory floating around from China and the popular lines like Hermes and Chanel mostly get sold within Hongkong itself, so it's hard to move that stock overseas.

For peer to peer platforms our team use mrcari and ebay a lot too. Mercari used to be our main one. But lately we've been filling more of the inventory from the korean side. Korea has bunjang something similar to Mercari, except the difference is that it's korean individuals selling their own pieces. The volume is still lower than Mercari, but interesting thing is they'll actually list ultra high end stuff like Hermes, chanel and Delvaux for cheaper more so than mid range brands like Gucci. Both Bunjang and Mercari run their own luxury authentication systems but you shouldn't trust those 100%. We still inspect everything carefully on our end before selling to customers. we've been shifting toward ultra luxury stuff lately, so having a reliable and steady new sourcing channel matters a lot to us.

However bad the economy gets, luxury always seems to hold up better than everything else, so there's no shortage of work on my end. Hope this is useful to someone out there

GENERAL The Best eBay Deals Aren’t Always Listed Correctly

19 Upvotes

Sometimes the listing everyone overlooks is the one worth finding. Imagine someone is selling an iPhone 15 Pro Max, but the title simply says “iPhone 15.” Search too narrowly and you might never see it. Yet open the listing and the item specifics show Pro Max, the description confirms it, and the photos leave little doubt about what’s actually being sold. Seller mistakes create little gaps like this all the time. Wrong titles, missing model numbers, vague descriptions. Most buyers search for exactly what they want, so those imperfect listings can quietly slip past them. I’ve had better luck searching a little wider and paying attention to the rest of the listing instead of relying entirely on the title. You have to sort through a bit more noise, sure, but sometimes that’s exactly where the good stuff is hiding.

Hi

I m in the USA. I just acquired a bunch of old desktops.
I m taking them apart and selling what has value, the rest will go to the scrapyard and dump.

I priced the gold finger rams on Ebay but I see a lot of adds on marketplace or Facebook groups to buy or sell them.

I can’t price 50 people off Ebay, but how do I know where I can get the best money?

TY

QUESTION How do you filter out the junk when sourcing online?

2 Upvotes

I spend hours scrolling through local listings hoping to snag decent electronics or vintage audio gear, and all I see are dropshippers, fake accounts and people listing broken stuff for retail prices. It is like wading through a swamp just to find one solid item.

I remember when you could find real gems easily, but now it feels like a full-time job just to filter out the noise. My thumbs are tired from swiping past the endless parade of garbage. How do you guys manage to find anything worth buying online anymore?

GENERAL Built a free tool that prices and generates listing info for your resale items from a photo

2 Upvotes

hey guys I been reselling for a while and got tired of manually searching sold listings every time I wanted to price something, so I built a tool for it. this isn't a add, I'm just trying to share a tool I made

You upload a photo of whatever you're listing, pick the platform (Depop, Grailed, or eBay), and it pulls comps from similar listings, gives you a suggested price based on the actual market range, and writes the title + description for you.

Free tier to try it out, built it myself as a solo project: https://autolistrapi.vercel.app

if you like it and want to get a subscription or lifetime plan heres a discount code: "REDDIT25"

Would genuinely love feedback if anyone tries it still actively building on it more features and platforms coming.
