单选题 China's corruption crackdown is helping fuel a
second-hand luxury market. As fur coats and Swiss watches {{U}}fall out of
vogue{{/U}} among China's elites, another luxury sector is quietly thriving. The
second-hand luxury market has seen a jump this year, according to a survey of
stores by Fortune Character Institute, a Chinese luxury lifestyle
publication. China's second-hand luxury stores range from
independent boutiques to chains like Hong Kong's Milan Station or Japan's Brand
Off, both of which have stores on the mainland. Online operations have sprung up
too, such as Secoo.com, which has around 600,000 registered users. Second-hand
designer goods can cost as little as a third of their original price. On Secco,
a Louis Vuitton bag sells for 2,750 yuan or $450, compared to a retail price of
8,350 RMB. Rare or limited-edition items can even fetch more second-hand than
the original price. According to the FCI survey of about 200 second-hand luxury
shops in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, sales totalled about 3 billion yuan
($490 million) in the first half of 2013. That's pretty small compared to
China's overall luxury market, worth about $13 billion in 2012 according to Bain
& Company. But it's a 30% jump from the year before. FCI posits that the
second-hand luxury market could grow 20% this year, which is about how much
sales in China's traditional luxury sector grew in 2012. (Analysts are expecting
the traditional luxury sector to grow a measly 5% to 7% this year.) The number
of second-hand stores has grown too, to a little over 800, from just over 500
last year. "Stores have been setting up in smaller cities like Changsha,
Hangzhou and Chengdu as well as in larger, wealthier urban centers," the
publication said. While China's austerity campaign and the
increasing check of officials' behavior by Chinese bloggers are likely helping,
second-hand stores have been around for a while, as a way for wealthy Chinese to
sell off unwanted goods. Pawn shops began appearing in the country in the 1990s
and copycat stores of Milan Station, the second-hand luxury chain from Hong
Kong, were all over the country by 2011. Today, second-hand stores always see
extra business after the holidays when the most "gifting" occurs. Another
explanation is that as more Chinese travel abroad—especially in Asia where
second-hand luxury stores have been popular for years, such as in Japan and
South Korea—they've become more accepting of the idea of wearing someone else's
expensive hand-me-downs.
