Gold and luxury goods resale market in Japan

Overview

Resale and appraisal activities for gold and luxury goods are increasing across Japan, driven by historically high gold market prices.

In late August 2026, various specialized buying events and appraisal fairs were scheduled in regions such as Osaka and Niigata. These events, hosted by companies like Otakaraya and Sasugaya, offered free appraisals for precious metals, brand-name bags, and luxury watches to assist consumers in liquidating assets.

As market trends remain high, businesses are reporting significant transactions, such as high-value gold necklace purchases. The sector is also seeing retail expansion, including the opening of new specialized buying services in Tokyo that focus on diamonds, jewelry, and luxury brands.
