The colors are mostly wood, white and dark.

The author saw that a set of 6 sets of red and white color matching piano paint complete set of second-hand furniture, used for 3 years or so, the price is 3200 yuan.

The low price of second-hand furniture is an important means of attracting customers in the junk market. Many old-fashioned markets directly said in their online propaganda that "the transaction price of second-hand furniture is 30% of the transaction price of new furniture." Miss Zhou of the Longbai Adjustment Store introduced to the author, “The customers who come to buy this furniture are basically 'running cheaply,' because of the high cost performance, they are all 70% new furniture.”

Second-hand furniture adds value to rental housing

“Now the tenants want the landlord to provide a full range of furniture and home appliances to make it easier for them to stay.” Ms. Wang, who is picking up old furniture at the Zhennan Road Flea Market, said, “I plan to buy a second-hand piece of furniture suitable for one bedroom. First, the second-hand is cheap, and the second is the furniture package, which can also increase the rent."

Ms. Wang told the author that she had rented an old house on Xiangyang Road. Although her old house was in a good location, the house was very old due to the construction time. If I didn’t do any “beautification”, this one-bedroom household The house can only rent a maximum of 2,000 yuan, and if equipped with furniture, the rent can rise to at least 2,500 yuan. Although it costs a lot of money, the difference in rent for one year can be earned back, and you don’t have to bear the cost yourself.

"I will brush the wall and clean it, and clean it, it will be easy to rent out." Ms. Wang said, "Now, there are many people looking for a good-selling house, and the rent is also going on. ."

"Like us, we can get 20-30 consultation calls every day. Generally, we can make 1-2 businesses a day, and the profits are still very impressive."

“Being old” needs to be original

When I visited, I found that compared with the renovation of second-hand furniture, some merchants have taken a different approach and chose “done-old” treatment, which is favored by consumers. “A lot of customers came to the store to ask about old furniture, mainly literary and fashion people. Now the second-hand furniture that is recycled is basically used for old-fashioned processing, and the business is not bad.” A business that manages the old business. Insiders told me that the most common way of doing things is to leave traces of use, such as burning some parts of the furniture, then leaving the black mark on the wood, and then polishing or painting. In addition, in order to give the feeling of the old furniture, wear treatment is also carried out. After the paint is dried, the most contacted areas are rubbed with different colors to create a worn appearance, or rubble with the pumice along the edge of the furniture. Leave a trace of white.

Second-hand furniture market has broad prospects

Which groups of people are buying consumer groups of used furniture? According to the author's understanding, the demand for old furniture is mostly rented and rented in this city. This type of people renting a house outside has a lower requirement for furniture. Compared with the expensive new furniture, they are more inclined to cheap and affordable old furniture. At the same time, many landlords have become consumers of second-hand furniture in order to meet the needs of tenants who need simple furniture.

However, with the introduction of the "restriction order", for many foreign wage earners, it is a shackle. Because of the high property prices and strict purchase guidelines, many foreigners are reluctant to choose renting houses because of many The young people who have just rented a house are not enough for the decoration, and the second-hand furniture market will surely show a booming scene.

The number of consumer groups has increased year by year, and the demand for second-hand furniture will surely have huge consumers.

Old furniture sales information is not smooth

With the continuous improvement of living and consumption levels, many citizens pay more and more attention to the quality of furniture. However, since furniture is a durable consumer product, the service life is usually long, so when many people move or want to change furniture, they will feel It is a pity that old furniture is sold as waste. Nowadays, how to deal with old furniture after it has been abandoned has become a headache for many citizens.

Mr. Ba owners would quite upset, "recently renovated home because I changed a new set of bed head cabinet, get the original set of old flea market to sell, but sold only $ 100, this is only the bargain I , when I want to buy a set of bed head cabinet spent 1,000 yuan, it took more than two years, and if you sell at this price, I feel great loss. "for now the old furniture, scrap purchase price, Mr. Palestinian representation is difficult to accept. To this end, he also specifically consulted bed head cabinet had to sell the business, the person said they never or recycling of household furniture, "TM" business.

According to the author's understanding, many people feel very embarrassed about how to deal with old furniture when they move: it is a pity to throw away; no one wants to give away people; the industry mainly deals with old furniture and can only find waste. Because of the impassable information, many migrant workers and renters who need old furniture have nowhere to "buy goods." Wood "reuse" is still very lacking

Relevant data show that with the advancement of urbanization and the growth of furniture production and sales, China's cities produce more than 85 million tons of waste wood each year. For a long time, China's “research and development investment in recycling technology of waste wood furniture and wood is still lacking”. The comprehensive utilization rate of wood in China is far from the level of developed countries, and has great potential for recycling of waste wood. Relevant researchers have said that the use of these waste furniture and wood, if used effectively, will bring "a considerable" economic and social benefits.

The main reason for the term "observable" here is that wood materials have the "irreplaceable" properties of other materials. According to the analysis, in recent years, as China has allowed fewer and fewer trees to be mined, “the production of pure solid wood furniture will be greatly restricted”.

However, more and more people in China are aware of the recyclability of waste wood furniture resources, and began to specifically recycle used wooden furniture and waste wood for technical processing and reuse. In the wood-based panel factory industry, Zhejiang Liren Group cooperates with Shanghai Environmental Sanitation System to recycle Shanghai's second-hand furniture and waste wood resources in an orderly manner, and use this as raw material to produce environmentally-friendly wood-based panels. According to some reports, in the home furnishing industry, “the use of wood-based panels has greatly exceeded that of solid wood”. However, these "a handful of" projects, compared to China's huge second-hand furniture recycling base, are still only "a glass of water and wages."
