　　7. Global second-hand goods e-commerce IPO

　　According to Japan's Sankei Shimbun, recently, Japan's second-hand e-commerce app Mercari has applied for an IPO, planning to raise $900 million in public financing, and is expected to be listed in Tokyo within the year. It will also become a second-hand goods e-commerce platform for global IPOs. 36Kr said in the report that from a model perspective, Mercari is a bit like the domestic second-hand item platform "Xianyu": users can be either buyers or sellers, and sellers can quickly publish products on the platform, set prices, and check the new and old levels, logistics methods, and payment methods. But unlike Xianyu, Mercari also provides a large number of third-party services, such as establishing a trust system and integrating logistics information to reduce the threshold, cost and risks of second-hand transactions. To put it simply, after the buyer and seller reach a transaction agreement, Mercari needs to spend a lot of effort to "defend the aftermath". (Source: Tianxia Online Business)
