Except the argument about what the real Han clothing is and how should we wear it, there is another extremely bad phenomenon exist in the Han clothing circle nowadays: the unreasonable selling method in the second-hand sale market.
Price Increase:
An increasing number of designers joined the Han clothing circle in the recent few years, which has a positive influence on the Han clothing renewal development. However, most of the great-designed Han clothing are expensive and rationed, which means that in this market, supply falls short of demand. Many merchants figured out that it is a good chance to make more money, so they spend a large amount of money on buying as more rationed Han clothing as they can, then raise the price as high as possible and sell them online.
We all know that it is immoral and unethical, however, only a few people can control themselves from buying it. This behavior leads to a vicious spiral, the price of the clothing becomes higher and higher while the quality of it becomes lower and lower. Nowadays, a lot of people hate the Han clothing circle because of this bad phenomenon.
Pack Together:
As I mentioned before, most of the great-designed Han clothing are expensive and rationed. Although someone is capable of buying it with a higher price, most of the Han clothing fans are still students who are not that wealthy. Also, some merchants do not want to let others think that she/he is immoral by raising the price. They figured out a new way to sell those clothes: by "packing" it with other “garbage”.
They will sell it at a high price along with some other things that they don't need anymore, like old shoes or used furnitures. Most of the merchants prefer this way because they can earn the money while getting rid of the garbages they do not need, and also people will not judge them for raising the price. In their defense, they sell the Han clothing in the original price, and the extra money is used for buying the “garbages”.
