RE-KEA: IKEA to sell used furniture online

Best known for its flat-packed furniture that's often referred to as "disposable", IKEA is now selling used IKEA furniture online in Sweden. The company will look to expand its second-hand sales to other countries.


We can only hope that this will inspire more tribute songs like this classic from Jonathan Coulton (above).


If you don't fancy buying someone's IKEA cast-offs, here are some links to help you build your own recyclable furniture, buy used furniture or sell your used furniture.


You can visit our Buy an Old Thing page for more inspiration.

Good for them. We've just sold a bunch of IKEA stuff on Ebay. I'd be quite happy to buy second hand direct from them next time we need a bit of flat pack kit.
