In fact, I really don't like this activity because it is so tiring to dig through that mountainous and tattered things lying on the platforms. And to watch around and buy a second-hand apparels or what we called ukay-ukay.

But because of my wife, which she really like to do this activity and bought some second-hand items for the family, and she's the one who likes to go and dig a things for us.

This is where we can found some original body coverings which some are too old and others are slight brand new. Which this items are cheap but a high quality and came from foreign rich countries, so their items quality is really high.
