Never Buy These Used Items

Baby bottles -
Older baby bottles may contain Bisphenol A (BPA), and you don’t want your baby to be exposed to these harmful chemical compounds.

Shoes -
You might be tempted to buy a pair of cool vintage shoes, but shoes often take the shape of their wearer’s feet over time, so they may feel very uncomfortable to wear.

Hats -
Hats are in close contact with a person’s head, which means lots of hair oil and sweat. Many hats also mold their shape to the wearer’s head, so they might not fit as you’d expect.

Old small appliances -
The same goes for small appliances where wiring may be compromised. In addition, appliance motors also wear out, which increases the risk of hazards.

Makeup and makeup brushes -
Used cosmetic items may contain germs, including bacteria and fungi.

Jewelry -
Used jewelry can be cleaned but still contain traces of toxic substances or allergens. Plus, there is also the risk of being ripped off and purchasing a fake piece.

Perfume -
Fragrances have expiry dates, though most won’t be explicit on the bottle. There is also a risk of purchasing a counterfeit when buying these secondhand.

Speakers -
Damage to speakers isn't always obvious. They may sound fine initially, but a tiny tear will worsen over time due to the vibrations from playing music.

School supplies -
Pencils, rulers, and folders are so competitively priced that you won't really benefit from buying these secondhand.

Personal hygiene products -
These are called personal hygiene products for a reason, right? Do not buy them used.
