Whether you’re a resident in Japan looking for fashion and home goods or a visitor searching for luxury brand items, BOOKOFF SUPER BAZAAR has something for everyone.
A One-Stop Store for All Your Second-Hand Needs

Though the items are used, they are in excellent condition, and you can sustainably find great quality goods at an affordable price! Rather than purchasing clothes and electronics brand new, why not give pre-owned items a new home?
BOOKOFF also buys used items, which is helpful when you want to refresh your wardrobe, move cities, or move back to your home country. Simply take the items to your nearest BOOKOFF SUPER BAZAAR, and they’ll buy them from you.
Affordable Apparel
For foreign residents and visitors alike, BOOKOFF is a haven for fashionable yet affordable clothing. With prices starting at just ¥110 for basics and outerwear from as low as ¥1,300, it’s a go-to destination if you’re looking to revamp your wardrobe on a budget.
You’ll also find an impressive range of children’s clothing perfect for families with kids who grow out of clothes quickly. Mixing and matching items allows you to create stylish, head-to-toe outfits for as little as ¥3,000.
All BOOKOFF SUPER BAZAAR stores are different, but each store has various brands, such as popular brands like NIKE and ADIDAS, as well as trendy Japanese labels like SNIDEL and LOWRYS FARM.
A Paradise for Brand Enthusiasts
BOOKOFF’s brand goods section is a must-see if you like popular names. Imagine discovering authentic Louis Vuitton bags, Rolex watches, or Chanel wallets at prices significantly lower than buying them new. Every item undergoes meticulous inspection by experienced staff to ensure authenticity and quality, allowing you to shop with peace of mind.
The selection available is diverse and ever-changing, featuring rare finds like discontinued models or vintage Rolexes that have come back into popularity. BOOKOFF also offers tax-free shopping, making it an excellent place for a shopping excursion when friends and family come to visit.
The BOOKOFF Difference: Quality and Trust
BOOKOFF’s commitment to quality sets it apart from other second-hand stores. Every item is thoroughly examined, cleaned, and restored to ensure it’s in excellent condition before it hits the shelves. You can trust that each and every product meets high standards.
