Headlamps second-hand market

When searching for used Head Lambat, the first thing you'll find are multiple listings on "Merli". The price range is about ¥13,000 to ¥17,000, and as of July 2023, none are on sale and all are sold out!
Additionally, there are approximately 40 units listed for sale if we count those that have been sold in the past, meaning that only 0.4% of the 10,000 units of Head Run that have been shipped so far are on the secondhand market.

I see,,,

First of all, the number of second-hand items available is small, and it would be quite difficult to get your hands on one by exchanging messages and negotiating the price.

I've looked on other auction sites but there aren't many listings.

There were also some second-hand items listed online at very low prices,

There are many websites that seem like scams, and we have received reports of people who have actually been victims of scams.

There are few second-hand items available

There are some fraudulent sites

From that perspective, I think buying a used item would be a lot of work.

In addition, the price is often ¥3,000 to ¥1,500 cheaper than a new one,

Headrun bats are training gear, so unlike game bats or wooden bats, they will last a lifetime!

Since the Head Run Bat will be used for the entirety of your baseball career, I would like you to treat it with care as something that belongs only to you, so I personally think that you will feel more attached to it if you purchase it new.
