Don't be fooled by malicious traders!Competitive purchase market ... "How to distinguish" I heard from the president of the recycle shop |

　With the change in lifestyle due to the corona evil, more and more people have come to "buy" without throwing away things.Therefore, what I want to be careful about is the presence of malicious companies.Trouble with visiting purchases and unused items (non -store companies) is increasing.We heard about the current status of a competitive purchase with President Takeshi Yoshida of "NEXT LIFE", which operates the recycling shop "POI! Next" in Joto -ku, Osaka.

Speaking of purchases, it was expensive, branded image ...

　Until now, there were expensive images such as branded goods, precious metals, old coins, stamps, and kimonos.However, it is said that daily necessities are increasing due to corona.

　For example, household goods such as furniture, electrical products, and kitchen supplies, clothing and games that you usually wear.In addition, people who give hobbies such as camping equipment, surfing tools, and incense trees of incense are noticeable.

　Until now, it is largely difficult to find the purchase destination due to the spread of SNS because the seller has not been found.In addition, the number of commercials such as purchases increased, so that the recycling became familiar.President Yoshida advises, "I can throw it away at any time, so let's try whether it will sell first."

It's okay if there is a scratch or dirty!?

　What is worrisome is the degree of deterioration.Whether you can get it even if the condition is bad due to the thing you have used.For example, if you put a bag in recycling, I asked how much darkening could be accepted.

　Then President Yoshida immediately answered, "Almost all of our companies are OK."If you are doing cleaning and maintenance in -house, you will be surprised that you will be picked up unless you are in a good condition."Don't give up any condition, first consult a professional trader."

Be careful when buying a visit "Don't be fooled by a malicious company"

　Meanwhile, what is increasing is the trouble of visiting purchases and unusual collection companies (non -store companies).So, I was told by a malicious contractor who was not deceived.

① Let's ask for a business card or a peddling employee card!

　The law is obliged by law to present a "peddling employee card", which is a second -handed permit, when operating outside of the sales office, such as visits and business trip purchases other than having a recycled company come with your own will.It is being.President Yoshida emphasizes not only business cards, but also those who do not show the peddling employee card firmly.

② Let's check whether the assessment is free or paid!

　It is important to note that some of the product assessments are completely free assessment, and some are not."Our company also offers free business trips and free quotes, but some vendors are paid."Don't forget to check whether it is free or paid before receiving the assessment.

(3) A trader who cannot assess firmly is out of the question!

　Assessment requires study and experience.For example, a person who does not know how to fold a kimono is impossible to assess kimono.A highly experienced appraiser has a deep knowledge of kimonos and should be able to explain the reasons for the assessment result in an easy -to -understand manner.However, it is difficult to see if you are a appraiser who can be connected, so it is all about asking a reliable trader.

④ Cooling -off suppliers are NG!

　Aside from the customer request or visiting, if you visit with the will of the trader or come to a business trip purchase, you will have to return the goods within 7 days even if you contract.The law "Cooling -off" contract is stipulated.

　"I signed a contract, but I don't want to sell it, so it's cooling off that I can get it back," said Yoshida.Be careful not to be fooled, as malicious traders may lie that they can not cool off, so that they may lie.

It is important to gain the trust of customers

　This time, "POI! Next", which we interviewed, started with a recycling warehouse in Suwa as an actual store in Suwa, Joto -ku, Osaka."I was able to come to see if my neighbors were selling something, and the warehouse was like a shop."

　In the spring of 2020 Corona turmoil, masks were short of masks nationwide."I wanted to contribute to the community when I was in a pinch, so I bought a mask and distributed it to the local people."It is said that it was called on Instagram and distributed free to nursing care facilities, osteopaths, and shop customers.As a result, trust was born, and the store felt the importance of communication with the community.

　At present, "I am about once a month, but I have an event like a reduction sale and I'm actively involved in interacting with the locals," says Yoshida.

　Cleaning is still ahead, but I don't want to discard things that are no longer needed, but think about recycling.I felt that I was taught through interviews that this was also connected to SDGs, which is being pushed around the world.
