Goofish

In the current era of the Internet, the second – hand trading market is booming. Goofish, as a star platform in this field, has attracted much attention. Goofish was launched on June 28, 2014. Initially, it was called Taobao Second – Hand and was renamed Goofish on May 8, 2015. Behind its birth is Alibaba’s keen insight into the potential of the second – hand trading market, aiming to create a convenient and efficient trading space for users’ idle items.

The main business scope of Goofish is extremely extensive, covering almost all aspects of life. In the field of digital products, from mobile phones and computers to various smart wearable devices, a rich selection can be found here, providing many possibilities for consumers who pursue cost – effectiveness. In the fashion and clothing category, whether it is trendy clothing, brand – name bags, or shoes of different styles, it can meet the aesthetic needs of different users. Home supplies are also abundant, ranging from large furniture and home appliances to small home decorations, providing an affordable way for people to decorate their warm homes. In addition, categories such as toys, books, and baby products are also available, truly bringing idle items “to life”.

Goofish’s trading mode is highly distinctive. It adopts the C2C (consumer – to – consumer) model, allowing direct connection between users, reducing intermediate links, and lowering transaction costs. Relying on Alibaba’s powerful credit system, through methods such as Sesame Credit Score, it provides credit references for both trading parties, increasing the trust in transactions. At the same time, the platform is simple and convenient to operate. Users only need to easily upload photos of items, describe the item conditions in detail, and set a reasonable price to quickly list products.

After years of development, Goofish has become a leading platform in the second – hand trading field, solving the problem of handling idle items for countless users and achieving the reuse of resources. It has not only changed people’s consumption concepts but also promoted the development of the circular economy, occupying an important position in the territory of the Internet economy.
