I buy used things all the time. They are actually my preference when it comes to furniture, household goods and clothes. I like going to garage sales, thrift shops and second hand outlets. I also buy pre-loved books and DVD's. In the past I also bought certain electronic items, including a laptop and mobile phone, that I have been very happy with. Why buy something new when you can get it second-hand? I don't mind a bit of wear and tear. And I certainly don't mind the cheaper price.
