Ikea is doing things differently for Black Friday.
The flat-pack furnishings company isn’t focusing on YOU buying something from them. It will be the other way around. Ikea will actually offer to buy back thousands of pieces of used Ikea furniture in 27 countries, for resale, recycling or donation to community projects.
Here’s how it will work: anyone selling used Ikea furniture will get a voucher that could be worth as much as 50% of the original price, to buy new items. What condition the used furniture is in for the company to take it back wasn’t mentioned.
Ikea is moving toward reselling buybacks, recycling them, and repairing. Their first second-hand store opens later this year.
The Black Friday program will run from November 24 to December 3.
