BuySell Technologies Co., Ltd.
Retail Trade
Company Overview / Who We Are
We are developing a comprehensive reuse service called "BuySell" that implements the circulation of purchases and sales.
Our mission is to transform one's unwanted items into someone else's needed items.
In households across Japan, there are many "hidden assets" that remain unrecognized and unused.
By redistributing these assets where they are most needed, we re-build society into one that breaks away from the bad practices of repeatedly manufacturing and quickly discarding items.
Our business is rooted in two vital features.
First, we have an excellent team of members who continue to grow our business.
Second, we have the technology necessary to optimally connect the entire process from purchase to sale.
Since launching our reuse business in 2015, we have grown to become one of the top-ranking companies in the industry, with offices throughout Japan.
Going forward, not only will we grow and realize a recycling-oriented society, but we will also continue to take on the challenges of becoming the driving force in the reuse industry, leveraging the power of people and technology.

Our Vision / Mission
To be the bridge that connects things important to us
by transcending people and transcending time.
Transcend people. Transcend time.
To continuously capture hearts and minds. To be continuously needed.
As people, we have the power to make things hold true value.
Through us, ordinary things have purpose.
We discover the things that you consider valuable across the globe.
We make this a reality for all.
We return these items back to society by
connecting people, companies, and even countries through technology.
We circulate these items the way the earth rotates,
and continuously pass on the things most impotant to us.
Good things, lasting things.
BuySell Technologies
Our Services / Products
"BuySell" is a comprehensive reuse service that creates circulation channels for purchases and sales.
The purchase business operates a variety of channels, including on-site purchases, which conducts more than 200,000 assessments per year, as well as in-store purchases and home-delivery purchases. Using the power of people and technology, we have built a system that makes it possible for anyone in Japan to easily take part in the reuse industry. We are one of the largest companies in this industry.
In the sales business, we centrally manage purchased merchandise and distribute it through the most appropriate channels, including our own EC, EC malls, and BtoB antique auctions, from Japan to the rest of the world, regardless of whether it is toB or toC.
We handle "hidden assets" often forgotten about in homes, particularly high-priced items such as kimonos, stamps, and brand-name goods.
