Antique and Used Goods Retailing in Australia

Operators in the Antique and Used Goods Retailing industry have faced increasing external competition over the past five years. Pure online players such as eBay and Gumtree are pursuing a greater share of the market, increasing competition and hindering the industry's performance. Volatile consumer sentiment has also affected the industry's performance over the past five years. As a result, industry revenue is expected to rise at an annualised 2.2% over the five years through 2021-22, to $3.5 billion. This trend includes an anticipated increase of 2.5% in the current year.

Industry retailers primarily sell antiques and used goods (except motor vehicles or motorcycles and parts). Antique goods sold by the industry are sourced from individuals or businesses, while used or second-hand goods are generally sourced from donations. The industry includes the online operations of bricks-and-mortar antique and used goods retailers. However, online-only players, such as auction websites, are excluded from the industry.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
