Some merchants try to trade furniture for trade. Valuation depends mainly on experience

The home appliance industry's "trade-in" has ignited a raging fire in the market. When this fire was announced to withdraw from the rivers and lakes at the end of last year, the "trade-in" in the furniture industry is expected to take over. Earlier this month, the Municipal Commission of Commerce proposed for the first time that the pilot furniture should be replaced with new ones. Although the policy is still in the research stage, its concept and operation design have caused great conjecture in the industry and the market.

Some of the "anxious" companies, such as Home and Jimei Furniture, have already taken the lead in starting the water test and spontaneously organized the "trade-in" campaign. However, unlike home appliances, furniture has many types and different materials, and the subsidy scheme is much more complicated. In addition, due to higher logistics and dismantling costs, and lower recycling rates, old furniture recycling and other issues have also emerged in corporate behavior. The relevant person in charge of the Municipal Commission of Commerce told reporters that this year, relevant operating rules will be issued for furniture "for the old".

"5%" "One for three"

Trade-in valuation is mainly based on experience

Actually Home is the first enterprise to test water furniture for trade-in. Since September last year, consumers who buy new furniture in the actual home can hand over the old furniture to the store's collection point. Regardless of the specifications, size, material and newness of the old furniture, the new furniture can be sold at a value of 5 % Is discounted.

In the "Journey House" Century Jinyuan store, many furniture brands that the reporter visited yesterday said that after various discounts, the trade-in discount can still be used. The rule is "one-to-one" exchange of furniture of the same category. Bed for bed, desk for desk, deduct 5% of cash. "A salesperson told reporters that when the door comes to install new furniture, the staff will remove the old furniture and transport it back. Then the customer took the document to the actual home to collect the deducted money. It is understood that these 5% discounts are all paid by the actual home.

Although there is no maximum subsidy ceiling, the 5% discount is not high in the eyes of many consumers. Recently, Mr. Zhang, who is planning to move to a new house, calculated an account for the reporter. He is optimistic about a new bed worth 7,000 yuan. According to the subsidy standard of "for the old", he can exchange his old bed for a deduction of 350 yuan. cash. But Mr. Zhang's old bed was bought for 1,200 yuan three years ago, and a deduction of only 350 yuan is not cost-effective.

"There are many categories of furniture products, many varieties, and the value is also very different, so we can not effectively evaluate the value of old furniture, we can only subsidize the value of new furniture." Wang Linpeng, president of the actual home, said the value of old furniture for consumers Whether they can afford the trade-in discount can only be assessed by consumers themselves.

Jimei Furniture is also undertaking trade-in enterprises, but the form of subsidy is to adopt a "used goods discount coupon" method. According to the person in charge of Jimei Home Furnishing, customers ’old furniture will be collected by Jimei Home Furnishing, and then according to the appraisal results of the appraiser, the customer will be issued a“ furniture for new home purchase voucher ”with the corresponding subsidy amount. "One to three" is used for cash. The value of old furniture is 100 yuan, and customers can use this voucher as 300 yuan.

Although Jimei's trade-in method seems to be more "preferential" than the actual home, the valuation method of old furniture is not transparent, and the person in charge of Jimei also admits that the valuation mainly relies on the experience of the worker master.

Recycled goods idle warehouse

Difficult to deal with old furniture

Trade-in furniture companies must also solve the problem of how to recycle and reuse old furniture. It is understood that unlike old appliances that can be disassembled and reused after recycling, the value of reused old furniture is very limited. The materials of furniture are complex and diverse, and there is little room for processing changes of the formed wood, and the method of direct processing without disassembly is also very limited.

In the first month of the first phase of the home-for-new trade-in activity, 804 pieces of old furniture were recovered in a total of 1305 pieces. In recent months, the amount of furniture it has recycled has risen linearly, and old furniture has occupied a warehouse of more than 6,000 square meters. For this pile of old furniture, the actual home does not currently have a good disposal method. "Some old furniture that can no longer be reused can only be disposed of as garbage," Wang Linpeng told reporters. Except for the donated part and the part that has been treated as waste, most of the old furniture can only lie quietly in the warehouse at present. , And there is no better way to deal with it.

He also revealed to reporters that the home is building an old furniture processing center outside the North Sixth Ring Road, which is expected to be put into use within the year. He said that in addition to the old furniture that can enter the second-hand market or donate at that time, the vast majority of the old furniture that has no use value will be dismantled after recycling, such as the board, hardware, sponge, wood, etc. are separately opened, and then the resources are realized. use. However, it is unclear whether the specific utilization methods and value of these things are worth the cost.

Enterprises have already taken a step forward, and the problems and difficulties of the trade-in furniture replacement have already begun to emerge. In what form will the furniture trade-in furniture appear in front of the public in the future become the focus of attention.

A few days ago, the relevant person in charge of the Municipal Commerce Commission said to reporters that the trade-in of furniture may continue the policy idea of ​​trade-in of household appliances. Several large-scale furniture retail stores in the market will be united, and several categories of common furniture will be used as trade-in products. Percentage of turnover is subsidized, and a subsidy ceiling is set. However, the specific measures are still at the exploratory research stage, and the first batch of pilots may be launched during the year.
