NZ Herald has reported that SaveMart has started banning bulk buyers, who look like they are buying up big to sell on in "recycle-boutiques" and on TradeMe.

I think that this is great to see. I think that as a direct result of on-selling, Wellington has one of the worst second hand shop selections in the country. It is impossible to find anything with a brand on it in my local Salvation Army store; to get it I'd have to go to a recycle-boutique on Cuba St and pay three times the amount that it would be worth. Good on SaveMart (wish there was one near me!)
