I am in the market for furniture, and will probably use a second-hand store as I have been told that a lot of the items sold on this site by foreigners are overpriced and of a low quality. Not surprising, considering the quality of some of the people I have met here, but that is another matter.

I am assuming that these stores provide free delivery, correct? Can anyone confirm this?

I don't know if the delivery is free, but there are many second hand stores in Korea. You should try to haggle a bit on the prices as there usually is some room for negociating.

You can go to this thread for more info:

Also, keep an eye out for good stuff discarded in the street.

Seriously, sometimes a perfectly good chair or table is just sitting there, waiting for anyone.
