#Taiwan Second Hand shopping

If you're wondering how it is to buy second hand in Taiwan, I hope this post will give you a better insight into the topic. Why shop second hand? Starting off, why do we buy second hand? Second hand products purchases are an alternative option to buying brand new products at the store. Most of us do that to avoid the high commission margin the retail stores are clocking in. It is not uncommon for goods to lose 30% of value at the moment of leaving the dealership, especially luxurious goods like cars.

One of the cities implementing measures of replacement is Taipei City. Source: Focus Taiwan Taipei is the capital of Taiwan, with over 2,7 million population. This population is sitting within an area of 271 square kilometers, meaning it is a very densely populated city, with over 10,000 people/km² [i] . Taipei is not to be confused with New Taipei City, two separate administrative entities, with New Taipei surrounding Taipei City. TPC, area wise, is much smaller than New Taipei city, but much more densely populated: over 5 times as much! Taipei City is the richest city in Taiwan, with the biggest government budget and the richest population.
