A recent survey by Carousell shows that Malaysians may not have to break the bank anymore when it comes to buying gifts for their loved ones.

Secondhand gifting is quickly becoming an eco-friendly and cost-effective option when it comes to shopping for presents.

In fact, the survey showed nine out of 10 Malaysians would be happy to receive a secondhand gift and 84.8 per cent said they preferred a secondhand item that they had always wanted over a brand-new item that they didn’t care for.

Meanwhile, two-thirds of shoppers listed value-for-money as the top incentive when buying secondhand as they are often able to find branded goods at a fraction of the original price.
