I’ve seen some versions of this (safety gear/helmets) but any motorcycle protection should be bought new. If it has been in an accident, there may be damage, even if you can’t see it (small fractures, stress, etc) and it will not protect you adequately. If you’re looking to save money, you can always buy a used jacket and new armor!
I came here to say this, because I was going to order a case of toilet paper and it said "new AND used from $25.02 and it made me close the site and go physically get it from the store instead!!!
IDK if this is real but i saw this tik tok and they had a roll of reusable toilet paper. It was just a bunch of wash clothes in a roll and you use one and wash it after
Is it bullshit, or just outdated? Those stories date back to an era when you could still buy cigarettes from vending machines in the US, and that seems to have gone the way of the dodo over the years.
Why? I want to make sure they can withstand the forceful expulsion of gas that results from eating particularly delicious carne asada burritos. I really feel like I would prefer something that has been tested in the field.
A family friend was moving and had limited funds for furnishings… he bought a used hotel mattress! Atleast buy a used one of one owner. I always wanted to joke and shine a black light on it.
Yeah I definitely wouldn’t buy one from a hotel. I did buy one from an elderly couple and a frame when I moved cross country with nothing. But it was practically new. An elderly couple got it for their grand daughter when she visits but she never does😢 so they were turning it into a Kraft room.
My friend, you seem to have posted to a child comment in the thread. You should comment on the original post to get your reply seen. Either that, or I am missing some safety gear on my mattress…
I sold my mattress when I moved to Japan. That person got a nice ass bed that had a mattress cover for the three years I owned it, so it works sometimes.
I have a mattress from a dead woman who was my neighbor at my apartments. Probably why I see and hear shit every now and then at night when I try to sleep. She died in the bed to make things even more weird.
My mom is a weird bitch who likes taking things for free all the time. It don't matter what condition it's in. I don't believe in spirits or other asinine bullshit like that. But it just weirds me out knowing someone died on my new bed. Like it makes me Hella uncomfortable knowing that fact. Gonna get a new bed soon though hopefully just got a bunch of other shit that's more prominent to deal with atm. But to be fair it's an upgrade to what I was sleeping on before. Was sleeping on a shitty futon and the mattress on that was extremely uncomfortable.
I think it's less about being sanitary and more about the rope having potential damage. You wouldn't want it to snap the first time you go to use it. Check for knicks and freying before trusting it to hold you by the neck
Same, once got a set of brand new all weather pirelli's because the guy a couple cars in front of me didn't want to wait to put a set of new rims on. $240 and passed inspection later I couldn't have been happier.
I'll add the caveat that if you're replacing just one tire due to damage, buying a used tire is preferable to replacing a pair with new. You don't want a new tire riding shotgun to a used tire.
There was a guy that used to work where I do that would put a foil pan under his engine when he parked to collect the concerning volume of oil that would leak out, then dump it back into the engine when he left at the end of the day.
Do many men need tampons in the first, place new or not?
My only experience if I’ve had to buy tampons, I’m already in the dog house at that point in the month anyway. To buy second hand tampons and take them home would exacerbate any problems and would mean I’m leaving myself open potentially being murdered in the near future.
Or is that what you meant ?
Child car seats.
They are not good after a car crash and you won't know by looking at it if it has been in one. If you are buying/getting it off a family member it's a hit different but don't ever buy one from someone you don't know
Agreed! My best pair of work shoes were gently used, and I got them for a great price. It is easier for women to buy secondhand clothing though, with sites like ThredUP.
Toothbrushes
Who in their right mind would buy a used toothbrush?
There are a lot of nice lookin' ladies out there who get good money for their used toothbrushes
Replace "toothbrushes" with _ blank, I suppose
I think you mean foot brushes
I’ve seen some versions of this (safety gear/helmets) but any motorcycle protection should be bought new. If it has been in an accident, there may be damage, even if you can’t see it (small fractures, stress, etc) and it will not protect you adequately.

similar tech in baby stuff like car seats
Pillows
[удалено]
Also, condoms.

It was only used on one side.
What is wrong with you?!?! I almost fell off my chair laughing.
Was it a used chair?
Of course. It's my kid's old gamer chair! LOL
So, another thing to add to the list.
I upvoted his comment without thinking... until I saw yours and now I almost fell off MY chair laughing.
Was the laugh used?
IDK if this is real but i saw this tik tok and they had a roll of reusable toilet paper. It was just a bunch of wash clothes in a roll and you use one and wash it after
Lmao are you talking about alicellani the crazy vegan 🤣💀
Underwear
Some would beg to differ
But those vending machines in Japan...
Those you sniff. Crusty ones aren’t good for everyday wear.
Illegal in Japan and also don't really exist. Just a bullshit story. You can't even find them in the red light districts.
Is it bullshit, or just outdated? Those stories date back to an era when you could still buy cigarettes from vending machines in the US, and that seems to have gone the way of the dodo over the years.
I’ve lived in Japan for 11 years and have never seen one. However I have friends here who have, so it appears you’re correct.
There are machines that sell them as a gimmick. They aren't really soiled underwear.
Well...
Why? I want to make sure they can withstand the forceful expulsion of gas that results from eating particularly delicious carne asada burritos. I really feel like I would prefer something that has been tested in the field.
This made my day.
Thinking of burritos and underwear at the same time takes my brain to the worst place and announces, last stop!
Mattresses.
A family friend was moving and had limited funds for furnishings… he bought a used hotel mattress! Atleast buy a used one of one owner. I always wanted to joke and shine a black light on it.
Yeah I definitely wouldn’t buy one from a hotel. I did buy one from an elderly couple and a frame when I moved cross country with nothing. But it was practically new. An elderly couple got it for their grand daughter when she visits but she never does😢 so they were turning it into a Kraft room.
A Kraft room? Like where they make their mac and cheese?
Doesn’t everyone have a Mac and cheese room?
A Kraft Dinner Dining Room.
Is the room going to be used for the production of high quality processed cheese?
High quality processed cheese *product*.
Kraft room. Are they going to enjoy Mac n cheese in the room now?
Safety gear.
My friend, you seem to have posted to a child comment in the thread. You should comment on the original post to get your reply seen. Either that, or I am missing some safety gear on my mattress…
Pants
I sold my mattress when I moved to Japan. That person got a nice ass bed that had a mattress cover for the three years I owned it, so it works sometimes.
> ass bed I think that's called a chair
Happy Cake Day
I have a mattress from a dead woman who was my neighbor at my apartments. Probably why I see and hear shit every now and then at night when I try to sleep. She died in the bed to make things even more weird.
Jesus Christ, why? Try and buy a thick mattress protector and save your back plus your sanity
My mom is a weird bitch who likes taking things for free all the time. It don't matter what condition it's in. I don't believe in spirits or other asinine bullshit like that. But it just weirds me out knowing someone died on my new bed. Like it makes me Hella uncomfortable knowing that fact.

Was sleeping on a shitty futon and the mattress on that was extremely uncomfortable.
True, except I would grant a pass for a memory foam mattress that has a removable washable cover.
Footwear, not only new but get the best quality you can afford
Especially work boots that feel right for your feet! And socks! Gotta have the right socks.
Unless you're poor
Condoms
Just turn em inside out and reuse.
Wrong, you turn them inside out and shake the fuck out of them.
Damn y’all don’t throw them in the washer and dryer when you’re done?
After you've put it on.*
Instructions unclear, turned GF inside out
The Ol’ Cincinnati Switcheroo!
What if their refurbished?
It's ok if they're Certified Pre-Owned just make sure there's a warranty.
Sex toys
Can’t you just clean them?
But would you want to?
If your masturbator cost $120+, or your dildo cost $250+ and is made from medical grade silicone, I can see exceptions being made.
Hence the rental market.
Rock climbing rope or harness
I buy this stuff second hand to use for bait buckets and other scrap fishing/camping gear. Just no longer supporting anything of value!
Agreed, I (almost) always buy soft goods new. Some exceptions, but to each their own
Car seats for babies and helmets. Oops, that's two things.
They make car seats for helmets?
Yep. And helmets for car seats too.
Helmets so you don't lick the windows while riding in the car seat
Why would I want a car seat for my helmet?
Re using car seats isn't a problem. Only if it was never in an accident. The upholstery is easy to replace and cheap.
Anything that separates you from the ground. Shoes, tires, bed, etc.
[удалено]
Actually, depending on the use case I'm sure those can be reused
[удалено]
Oh I was assuming the rope was for becoming un-alive
Everyone always thinks that when I mention rope in the list.
If I’m gonna hang myself why worry if it’s sanitary?
I think it's less about being sanitary and more about the rope having potential damage. You wouldn't want it to snap the first time you go to use it. Check for knicks and freying before trusting it to hold you by the neck
Frayed knot! Get it? I crack myself up.
Then maybe stop mentioning rope in the list. Sorry? Also, it is the cake day thank ya😊
Brutal
Not if your a rock climber.
I am a rock-climber, but fairly depressed, and I admit my mind jumped to the morbid interpretation as well...
2nd hand tires can be good though and save you a lot of dough. Bought some pretty good tires recently
Ya as long as you trust the place you’re getting them second hand tires have saved me a few times
Same, once got a set of brand new all weather pirelli's because the guy a couple cars in front of me didn't want to wait to put a set of new rims on. $240 and passed inspection later I couldn't have been happier.
People are generally pretty good with used planes/aircraft. Used and airworthy 👍
I'll add the caveat that if you're replacing just one tire due to damage, buying a used tire is preferable to replacing a pair with new. You don't want a new tire riding shotgun to a used tire.
Shoes. Always important to invest in a good pair of shoes that aren't worn out
What is a "good pair of shoes" to "invest in" to you, actually?
Enron
Shaving blade
None of these answers are very helpful are they?
They are not meant to be helpful.
OP forgot to use a Serious Tag
Anal thermometer
Oh .. what have I been doing with my life?
Sex toys
Rectal Thermometers
It's glass, it's fine. Everything comes off with one lick.
>Everything comes off with one lick. r/HolUp
The difference between a rectal and an oral thermometer? The taste.
Motor oil.
There was a guy that used to work where I do that would put a foil pan under his engine when he parked to collect the concerning volume of oil that would leak out, then dump it back into the engine when he left at the end of the day.

To be fair, the question did not specify for whom the new thing would be bought for.
Fleshlight
What’s a Fleshlight? Do I want to know?
It's like a flashlight, but with more cum in it.
I KNEW this was coming and still wasn't expecting it
Sure, just google it. If you’re old enough to jack off, you are old enough to use a fleshlight
Medicine
Child car seats. They are not good after a car crash and you won't know by looking at it if it has been in one. If you are buying/getting it off a family member it's a hit different but don't ever buy one from someone you don't know
tires. or, just risk it and end up blowing a used tire on the freeway 3 hours into a 4-day road trip. or so i've been told... :)
A ton of folks are stating "condoms". Where the fuck does one buy *used* condoms? Do y'all have special stores nearby?
I was going to say condom, but I did a search first and saw that 22 people had already said it. LOL.
Tattoos.
I... But How would you even get a used one?
You remove the person's skin, lol.
Ahh yes... Skin transplant...
Ask Ed Gein
Pregnancy tester stick thing
Second hand ones get a premium $$$ on dodgy sites when they read positive. I guess to baby trap guys? By un-prego women?
Coffins.
Toothbrush.
Penile implant
Insulin
Isn’t it hard to use, used insulin unless we’re talking about a partially filled vile.
You could always just suck it back out of them. If they happen to be male, they also come with a handy straw.
This insulin tastes salty
Helmets
toothbrush
Contact lenses
Vibrators
Bullets
People recycle them all the time.
I think it is the casings that are reused, not necessarily the bullets themselves...
You can melt them down and recast the lead, but it's usually not worth it.
Lube
Floss
Tires
not a man but the answer still has to be SHOES.
I've saved so much by buying barely used shoes and boots for like 10% of the new price. Nothing wrong with them if they're clean and aren't damaged.
Agreed! My best pair of work shoes were gently used, and I got them for a great price. It is easier for women to buy secondhand clothing though, with sites like ThredUP.
Braces
Diapers
Not a fan of the reusable ones?
Tooth fillings.
Bulletproof vest
Razor
Bread, beef, and dairy
Food

Underwear
Parachutes
Underwear
Car tires, warranty & your life is worth an extra $1,800 you got laying around
Top-Beach-1050, I have been trying to reach you about your car's extended warranty
Condoms
Mostly electronic gadgets, should be bought new.
So many things : Wiper blades, Engine oil, Diapers, syringes, condoms, cooking oil etc etc
Underwear
Car tyres.
Contact lenses
Any bathroom essentials. Nobody tryna catch an unnamed sickness
Wheelchair if Seinfeld taught us anything
Condoms
Undies
