Rich class, Resellers and Content Creators are responsible for price hikes of Landa and used items.
Man, that was a time when Landa and used things were a thing of poor and middle class. It was a feasible option for those who could not afford new things.
But now these content creators who make vlogs out of it and mostly resellers and elite class who know brands, hyped the prices. Back then it was called Landa and it was famous that poor people use Landa. But now it's called Preloved and even elite use it.
In past almost everything was same price and economical. But now they are also very smart and tell you this is Louis Vuitton, this is Armani this is this and that...
Even a few days back, I was negotiating for something at a used items shop. I know exactly the cost. I bought something similar in past for 100 rupees. shopkeeper was asking 200 and after negotiation he said 150. And suddenly a reseller came and started looking at my things. He asked shopkeeper to sell him instead of me. He was like "ya X brand ka ha online iski price Y ha ap itna sasta kyo derhy ho inko ap mujhy dedo"... i was like dude...tum same cheez 500 ki lekr 1500 ki resell kro ga apni community ma which is okay. it's a mean to make money. But at least market ko rate kharab na kro by doing things like "itna sasta dedia" etc...
Thank God shopkeeper acha tha he said ka unki qismat. unho na lelia ha ab.
