Does anyone know why so many of the second-hand LVs are sold out of Japan? I have bought one pre-loved LV on Ebay (authenticated here), but it was from a US seller. I am hesitant about the sellers out of Japan because I just don't understand why most of the pre-loved items are coming from there.
Easy. Japan simply is one of the largest markets for LV, has been for decades. A very large segment of global LV buyers. This is coupled with the fact that the Japanese turn over their luxury items to the resale market at a very brisk rate, in order to buy new current items.
