COVID-19 has left us feeling restricted since we spend most of our time at home, and by now, we’re pretty sure that some of you have already been scouting for new home decor and furniture to revamp your space and tame your pandemic anxieties.
Furniture shopping is like finding the missing puzzle pieces of your home. It can be a slow and rewarding process, especially if you’re buying second-hand items online. So we’ve made a list of bona fide Facebook groups where you can do your furniture.
Manila Expats Buy & Sell Market
With over 19k members, Manila Expats Buy & Sell Market has made a reputation for itself by making sure that all items (brand new or used) are of good quality. You’ll find used furniture, clothes, home decors, and appliances sold mostly by expatriates leaving the country or locals who are simply downsizing. If you’re lucky enough, you might even come across a Kenneth Cobonpue at a reduced price, like this one:
Manila Furniture and Decors Buy & Sell
Want to make your space instagrammable? Manila Furniture and Decors Buy & Sell members are selling trendy furniture pieces and decors that are affordable and will surely make your space aesthetically pleasing.
IKEA Philippines was expected to launch this year, but COVID-19 happened. Worry not! This group can still make your IKEA dreams come true with brand new and pre-loved IKEA pieces that your wallet will surely thank you for.
It wouldn’t hurt to add a vintage flair to your home. After all, having a piece of vintage furniture or decoration can make your space unique since it would almost be impossible to find the same thing. This group was created to gather antique enthusiasts who want to barter, buy, and sell valuable vintage finds, so you don’t have to pull a Rick Harrison to evaluate the authenticity of each item!
A piece of advice:
Be wary of online scammers. If unsure about an item or if you’re having doubts about the seller, you can always ask a group admin for help. It would be wise to do a little research about the seller, customer reviews, or their social media activities to be extra safe!
