Maxus Co., Ltd. Maxus Co., Ltd. 1-9-2, 2nd floor of Dia Palace Gotanda Building) has developed a purchase app "Sokkin" for unwanted home appliances, personal computers, watches, cameras, sneakers, musical instruments, etc., and will start operating from April 27. . We have built a registration database of about 100,000 items that can automatically calculate the purchase price immediately, and have established a system that allows immediate purchase at an upper limit of 150,000 yen. The purchased items will be resold through channels such as professional dealers, Yahoo auctions, Amazon, secondhand markets, and exports within two weeks. Similar services are offered by Mercalinau and CASH, but the upper limit is 20,000 yen for mainly branded items. On the other hand, "Sokkin" is an online version of a recycle shop, with many categories and a high maximum price. ■Features of "Sokkin" 1.

The user launches the smartphone app, selects a category, then selects new (unused), good (complete with accessories), or used (operable), and takes a picture. Then, the assessed amount will be presented, and if you are satisfied, you will request a transfer and the transaction will be completed. After transferring the purchase amount, Maxus consigns Yamato Transport to collect the cargo. There is no need for the user to pack, and Maxus Co., Ltd. will bear the cost of packing and collection. By completely eliminating the "troublesomeness" of transactions and shipping, which are the bottlenecks to the expansion of the reuse market, we will be able to restore the assets that lie dormant in households (a total of approximately 15 trillion yen nationwide, according to a 2014 survey by Komehyo Co., Ltd.). Promote fluidity. The aim is to make effective use of limited resources and create a rich life "SMART LIFE". When using the service, in addition to the registration of the identification card required for antiques trading, registration of selfie images (identification card and face photo together) will be compulsory to prevent fraud. ■Future development According to a survey by the Ministry of the Environment, the size of the domestic reuse market in 2015 is approximately 3.1 trillion yen on a final demand basis, and even if you exclude automobiles and motorcycles, which are the largest by item, it is a huge market of 1.1 trillion yen. . By the middle of 2019, Maxus Co., Ltd. will expand its registered database to 1 million items, a tenfold increase, aiming to become the "Amazon of the reuse industry." By the end of April, a chat operator function will be added to the app so that customers can consult on purchase price negotiations, operation methods, state selection, and purchase flow. Also, in May, we will add a manual appraisal function to support used items that are not registered in the database. In the process of expanding the registered database to 1 million items, we will be able to handle a wide range of used items. Currently, the app is only for iPhones, but in June it will be compatible with Android smartphones, and the number of users will increase at once. We expect to purchase a cumulative total of 10,000 items by the end of June, a cumulative total of 110,000 items in the term ending June 2019 (July 2018 to June 2019), and 20,000 items per month in June 2020. ■ About Maxus Maxus Co., Ltd. was established in October 2012. Until now, we have developed “SEL-LIVE”, where appraisal operators confirm the purchase price by video chat, in and around Tokyo. With the launch of "Sokkin", it will be available nationwide 24 hours a day, and a dramatic increase in demand is expected. Net sales, which were 230 million yen in the term ended June 2017, are planned to increase to 600 million yen in the term ending June 2018 and 3 billion yen in the term ending June 2019. We aim to be listed on the stock exchange in the future.
