The gap between the ideal idle fish and reality
Ideal idle fish
In an ideal world, Xianyu is a harmonious market where sellers and buyers respect each other and trade fairly. The seller Xiao Wang spent 4,000 yuan to buy the ** mobile phone, and half a year later due to changes in demand, hoping to transfer it for 3,000 yuan. Buyer Xiao Li has always liked this mobile phone, but the budget is only 2,500 yuan. On the Xianyu platform, after friendly communication, the two sides made a deal at 2,500 yuan. Xiao Wang successfully recovered, and Xiao Li also bought his favorite mobile phone, and both parties were satisfied.
Realistic idle fish
However, the reality of Xianyu is full of challenges and tests. Xiao Wang found that when he hung up his mobile phone for 3,000 yuan, a large number of second-hand dealers had emerged in the market, and they sold the same mobile phone in large quantities for 2,000 yuan and 1,000 yuan. These dealers have professional copywriting and exquisite **, which makes the goods of individual sellers appear to be overshadowed. Under Xianyu's complex push mechanism, Xiao Wang's mobile phone is almost unattended.
For Xiao Li, finding a suitable mobile phone is not an easy task. He kept scrolling down the screen, only to find that his eyes were full of second-hand dealers' goods, ** well below the market price. He began to doubt the authenticity and quality of these phones. After many attempts, he finally found a phone that seemed to fit, but after clicking on it, he was redirected to another shopping platform, much to his disappointment and anger.
Finally, after a long time of searching and screening, Xiao Li finally found his favorite mobile phone from an individual seller. Although after some exchanges, he successfully closed the deal for 2,500 yuan. However, the time cost and energy behind this made him feel that the so-called "cheap" did not seem so tempting.
Conclusion
As a second-hand trading platform, Xianyu should be a convenient place for people to conduct fair trade. However, practical problems make this vision elusive. In order to improve this situation, Xianyu needs to take measures to regulate the market order, improve information transparency, and protect the rights and interests of buyers and sellers. At the same time, as users, we also need to improve our trading literacy and vigilance to ensure that every transaction on Xianyu can meet our expectations.
