After Appraisal, Want to Sell: How the Recycling Process Works

Appraisal is about seeing clearly what you have; recycling is about finding it a buyer. Look at the two steps separately, and it's clearer in your mind.

Step One: Get an Appraisal Before Discussing Price

Whichever piece you plan to sell, first have someone carefully examine its origin, resin formation, oils, and completeness. Going into recycling talks with an appraisal conclusion gives you a basis far stronger than simply saying the material is good, and the price can be discussed more clearly.

Step Two: Understand the Recycling Terms

Legitimate recycling will explain what it accepts, what it doesn't, and how it calculates the price. Our ¥9.9 public-benefit appraisal focuses on helping you build understanding, while recycling is evaluated separately according to market terms—the two are not the same thing, don't conflate them.

Step Three: Inspect and Price in Person

Recycling usually requires the physical item to be present, with the price set after checking the scent, weight, and condition. Coming to the Songzhuang store and going through it in person is more worry-free than mailing it back and forth, and it avoids disputes over descriptions not matching the actual item.

The core of recycling is symmetry of information—you know the material, the other party knows the price, and only then is the transaction stable.

Keep Your Records

Before and after the transaction, keep appraisal records and communication records—this is both a safeguard and a basis for later review. Legitimate channels welcome you leaving a paper trail; it's the ones who avoid letting you keep records that you should be wary of.

Don't Rush to Clear Out Everything at Once

If you have several pieces, it's advisable to go one at a time—first get a feel for the market, then decide on the next piece. Selling gradually rather than rushing to dump them all at once usually yields steadier results.
