In addition to the night market in front of the road, the night market in bainun Road, Yiwu, the reporter also found 3 second-hand shoe stalls, its business model is similar to the night market before the station.

　 Second hand shoes are favored by low-income people. Some peddlers can sell 20 pairs a day.

Do you buy second-hand shoes? Yes, the answer is yes.

At 7 p.m. on November 17th, the reporter came to the night market before the station. In just two hours, many people came to buy second-hand shoes.

A young man who worked in a nearby shopping mall changed several booths and finally bought a pair of leather shoes for 70 yuan.

A man surnamed Ma introduced that he is now earning more than 2000 yuan a month, and he usually goes to a specialty store to buy designer shoes. He is still very keen to see such cheap brand shoes in the night market. "These shoes are very comfortable to wear." Mr. Ma said that according to his experience, the shoes were genuine.

From 7 o'clock to 9 o'clock that evening, the reporter saw four or five people in front of the first stall to see them. Most of them were ordinary workers.

"Although these shoes are old, but they are good quality, take them back and wash them well. Who knows whether they are new shoes or old shoes?" a stall owner said, most of them came from migrant workers, men, women, old and young, and some people who looked like the boss.

　 The source of secondhand shoes is a mystery.

So many stalls, selling dozens of pairs of second-hand shoes every day, whether shoes are genuine, where is the source? This is a concern of many people. What is more, they suspect that these second-hand shoes are stolen.

In the interview, the reporter consulted the booth owner. Hu, the owner of the night market at YiWu Railway Station, said they had fixed access channels and shoes were genuine. "If they are fake shoes, they will not come home early?" asked Hu sister.

She did not want to disclose more about the purchase channel, but said that if someone had good second-hand shoes for sale, they would also buy it.

The reporter proposed to sell Anta sports shoes on their feet for more than a year. Hu bought a bid of 10 yuan, and said that it would not exceed 20 yuan at most. "We don't want every pair of shoes. We need to look at the old and new shoes. Two, we need to see the extent of the vamp's breakage. We don't want it to be too broken." Hu said that the price of the pair of shoes was forty or fifty yuan.

Reporters carefully identified, although some old shoes feel good quality, but still difficult to distinguish between true and false. The stall owners are reluctant to disclose the real purchase channels. "When some wealthy people buy new shoes, they throw their old shoes in the exclusive stores, and we go to the stores to buy them." After several inquiries, a woman revealed.

On the evening of November 19th, the reporter went to Nike store in beigun Road, Yiwu, Jordan sports shoes and Anta stores in Chou Chou road. The sales staff of Nike store and Jordan store said there was little. A salesperson at Anta store said that when guests bought new shoes, they could throw their old shoes into the trash can at the door, and they might be picked up.

Mr. Wang, who sells second-hand shoes at bekun road night market, is from Quzhou. He said that most of the shoes on the second-hand shoe stalls came from Wenzhou, because the shoe market there was developed and there were more second-hand shoes.

Although the stall owners deny that there are stolen shoes on the stalls, there are also stall owners who privately say that if anyone wants to sell stolen brand shoes, they will not refuse.

Second hand shoes are inexpensive but should be alert to infectious diseases.

Speculation on second-hand shoes may be stolen goods. Yesterday, reporters also asked the Yiwu police about the situation. A police officer who did not want to be named said that he had actually received such alarm before his shoes were stolen, but in recent one or two years, such kind of alarm is rare. "The value of a pair of shoes is limited, and even if it is stolen, few people will report it." He said that the possibility of second-hand shoes as booty is not great.

In the interview, there are also people saying that second-hand shoes have bigger health risks. In this regard, Han doctor of Chou Chou hospital in Yiwu said that wearing second-hand shoes can easily cause beriberi, onychomycosis and other diseases. In comparison, beriberi is still a good treatment. If you get onychomycosis, not only the cost of medical treatment is relatively high, but also the treatment cycle is longer, the possibility of recovery is very small. "Some fungi on second hand shoes can not be completely removed." Dr Han reminded the public that buying second-hand shoes should be especially alert to infectious diseases.
