I have to rehash the hawa ng sakit galing sa ukay-ukay na mga damit. Mga virus like avian flu virus can't survive for any length of time outside of the host/person.

Mag-ingat ang mga bumibili sa anghit at fungus (methinks it is healthier to buy in an open store as opposed to air-conditioned one. You smelled the amount of detergent and fabric softener as you passed by an ukay store, right?).

One friend of mine does either of these procedures. Babad nya whole day ang mga damit sa Ariel. The others, sa light colored na lysol and then rinse with diluted vinegar to remove all chemical residue. For non-cotton fabrics that tend to get sticky when one sweats- she actually boils them for about 15 minutes. And she is crazy about those really old lace patterns sa wedding gowns. She gets them made into nice tops.

I don't know about it's legality. However, ukay-ukay is really a good business since there is a large population of poor who can't afford to buy signature garments. Moreover, rich people are very practical that found it very fun to buy something on ukay-ukay.

@ Dario
kwento mo naman sa amin kung ano nangyari para makapag-ingat ang mga taong gusto mag-invest sa ganitong negosyo.
thanks!

magaling siyang kausap si cabby kapag magoorder ka phone, kapag hindi mo nagustuhan at mali ang pinadala sa yo, pipilitin nyang yun na talaga ang inorder mo, tulad ng inorder kong men T-shirt No. 1, 9k price, nang icheck ko sa price list, nasa regular lang yung item na yun, 5K lang price, kaya di namin ginalaw, ibig sabihin 4K lugi agad namin dun, mga oversize talaga, wala man lang prize tag akong masilip. itinawag na muna namin, bago ibyenahe, pumayag siya, siguro akala niya hndi 22hanin kc malayo nga sa amin. nung andito na kami sa manila, marami na siyang dahilan. hirap talaga magtiwala sa kapwa. Ingat na lang po! Good Morning!

^thanks for sharing!
malaking halaga din ang pinag-uusapan dito at pinaghirapan. Siguro mas maganda kung personal talaga ang usapan at on the spot makikita mo mga items.
Hanap ka na lang ng magbabagsak sayo sa malapit.

goodluck!

Thanks, Nakakuha na ako ng ibang supplier, FROM Japan ang ukay nya, halos lahat ng item salelable. Di na ako UULIT kay CABBYSMILE, CHARGE TO EXPERIENCE na lang.

Hi guys,

I read all the posts in this thread and it's really informative. I'm interested on setting up an ukay2 business and I'm planning to get the items from cabbysmile. However, her shop is near the place we're renting in. They are from Angono and our place is in Binangonan.

Di kaya lugi kame kasi iisipin ng mga tao dun na lang sila bumili kay cabbysmile? At, si cabbysmile ba nagreretail ba o wholesale lang lahat? And how much rent per month ba sa place ang ideal sa ukay2 business?
