A new wave of second-hand clothing is emerging abroad. Most of them were founded in 2010-2013, with a focus on the mobile end, and the online experience is much better than the second-hand clothing market in the past. The second-hand clothing market in the past is more like flea markets, and the next generation is boutiques. Most of these companies have invested about $20 million trillion in a two-year period, such as Tradesy,twice,poshmark, and Threadflip, who just got 13 million dollars.

Threadflip is a second-hand clothing trading platform, the above clothes are biased boutique designers, the price will be much cheaper than new products. If you have spare clothing you want to sell on the Threadflip, you can use their free service "white gloves" (Glove Services), you pack your clothes to send out, the rest is left to Threadflip, there will be professionals to help you take photos, shelves, sale, You just sit and collect the money, of course Threadflip will also take a certain fee.

After the financing, Threadflip will expand the business team to deal with the rapid development of white gloves service. It is said that the monthly growth rate of this service is as high as 100%, with 1000 single daily use of the service. Threadflip also plans to expand to other areas, mainly in women's and decoration areas.

Second-hand market is also regarded as a share of the economy, can promote the more optimal use of resources, the community has a great benefit. Foreign new second-hand clothing is very hot, domestic but basically no sound. I simply asked the friends around, and they all said they were interested in finding a place to deal with the unused clothes. Perhaps the Chinese sister is still not very acceptable to buy second-hand clothes? Or is it just that no one has started working in this direction? If the former, I think the year will gradually change the status quo, interested in this friend, welcome to communicate with me. Leon#36kr.com
