Abstract

The used luxury goods market has great economic benefits and research significance. Many precedence studies investigate the second-hand luxury goods market, but few studies focus on how to help second-hand luxury goods suppliers improve their profit. Therefore, based on network analysis, this study proposes an analysis model that can discover multiple clusters of second-hand luxury goods. And these multiple clusters of second-hand luxury goods have the potential to be used to increase the profitability of second-hand luxury goods suppliers. We successfully discovered multiple clusters of second-hand luxury goods using data provided by a Japanese second-hand luxury goods supplier. Then, we statistically validated these discovered multiple clusters of second-hand luxury goods. Finally, we suggest some sales strategies for the provider based on discovered multiple clusters of second-hand luxury goods.
