In my opinion, it depends on somebody's lifestyle and budget on how we're going to spend our money. There are surplus stores that sells good quality appliances and dresses. As for me, it doesn't bother me if I buy second hand or brand new. Besides, it depends on how you carry the dress as long as it's still in good condition. What is important is that we feel comfortable on what we wear wether brand new or second hand.

Yes I agree with your opinion hanni711, there are also brand new clothes and appliances that doesn't have good quality. There are also second hand that have a good quality than the brand new one. It's depend also to your budget, right?

For me, I prefer to buy second hand because it's cheaper than brand new. But we have to be smart in choosing the good quality products even it's second hand but we need to look for the brand. There are many second hand products that is branded and it long last. There are many brand new but it will not long last because it's imitation. It's only my own opinion.

I definitely shop second-hand and used before I shop for new items. It's just because I don't really have all that much money but it's actually really cool and I'm really proud of finding a lot of deals! I don't dress terribly either, I actually find a lot of nice clothes at thrift stores and on clearance and at consignment shops. It works for me. Occasionally I splurge, but that's about it.

I love second hand things too but no in electronics and appliances. I do buy second hand clothing. Buying used electronics and appliances is not really a good thing i guess because i don't know what this defects are.
