I went to the used clothes wholesale warehouse SAVERS FIELD for all-you-can-pack

I went to the used clothes wholesale warehouse SAVERS FIELD for all-you-can-pack. Savers Field, a used clothing wholesale warehouse at the foot of Gotemba. There are many tons of used clothing veils imported directly from the United States, and the factory has been renovated and used, giving it a perfect atmosphere. Normally, it only caters to second-hand clothing wholesalers, but I went to an all-you-can-eat event that is open to the public on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays and Sundays of every month. We also introduce second-hand clothes that you actually bought for 2000 yen per bag.

Used clothes will save the world! Saber's Used Clothing Store

Sabers has two stores besides the used clothes warehouse in Gotemba. The two stores other than the warehouse are general stores, so you can shop at any time.

All-you-can-pack American used clothing wholesale! 1 Bag 2000 Yen!

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221612j:plain

When used clothes are procured from the United States, they are packed in containers in bales that are compressed with vinyl and come to Japan. Saber's Field has a lot of veils in the state before sorting. You can see them all at once.

When you actually go there, there are quite a few used clothes, and it's worth seeing. However, since it is before sorting, it is necessary to make a judgment by yourself and check the design and condition. It takes time and knowledge, but considering that you can buy 10 or more for 2000 yen, it's pretty cheap.

Access to Sabersfield by Public Transportation (Bus/Train)

Buses run through the Susono area near Sabersfield, so you can also go by train and bus from the city center. However, due to the small number of buses, flexibility of time is not effective. Be sure to check the operating information and schedule carefully in advance. Almost everyone came by car.

Actually trying to pack as much as you want

It was raining in the morning on this day, and there was an announcement that the start would be delayed by one hour. King Family Gotemba The store opens at 10:00, so I stopped by and visited. When I arrived at exactly 11:00, it was already almost full and there was a long line.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221506j:plain

The store clerk was setting up racks of old clothes one after another.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221511j:plain

The parking lot is almost full. If it was a few more cars later, I might not have been able to stop.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221513j:plain

When it was time to start, we started with the guidance of the store clerk. Most of the people didn't buy a bag, they just jogged into the racks to look at old clothes. I can't lose either

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221515j:plain

The racks are divided by genre and type of clothes.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221518j:plain

This day was the autumn season, so there was a wide range of items from short-sleeved T-shirts to knitwear.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221520j:plain

Good old clothes will be secured one after another, so hurry around. There are second-hand clothes dealers, resellers, and purchasers, and the approach is different. The good ones run out quickly, so if you're serious, line up before the store opens. This time, I was late to the event, so the quality of the used clothes was a bit unsatisfactory, but when I looked at the used clothes secured by the people who were sorting by spreading out the blue sheets, there were a lot of good-looking used clothes, so If you line up before the store opens, you can expect more.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221532j:plain

Because it was raining in the morning, the store clerk carried the racks even after the store opened, so I searched for new racks one after another.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221525j:plain

There are also quite a few bottoms corners. I hunted all the jeans, but when I saw it, I found only one US Levi's.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221539j:plain

It may be confusing at first because there are a lot of customers and the pace of fishing is amazing. My friend who went with me was surprised and waited for a while.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221530j:plain

Women's used clothes also have a lot of points.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221534j:plain

By the time I finished watching it, an hour had already passed.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221537j:plain

Since there is no shopping basket, some people put the second-hand clothes they secured around the store and sort them out later. used to! From next time onwards, I want to bring my own blue sheets, spread them out slowly, and sort them. Some people brought outdoor benches and sorted while resting, and the free atmosphere was wonderful.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221543j:plain

Since the veil was opened at 12 o'clock on this day, the atmosphere of those who have finished watching is waiting for it. A little break.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221602j:plain

It's 12:00 and the veil is open! American long-sleeved shirt veil on this day. It was interesting to see how people flocked at once after opening the package, like a bargain sale in an old anime. I myself flocked without hesitation. I'm looking forward to not knowing what's inside because it's a veil just after opening. No time to look at the tag, secure it immediately at the moment you are interested.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221541j:plain

After opening the veil, we sorted the old clothes collected by four friends, bought one bag and finished. If you buy a bag, you can take it home as it is without calling out after you have packed it as much as you want. Around 12:30, most of the customers finished all-you-can-eat and went home.

Secondhand clothes actually purchased with all-you-can-pack used clothes

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221509j:plain

This time, I went with 4 people including a friend, bought only 2000 yen worth of one bag, and divided it among 4 people. Even with 12 pieces, there was still room to spare. I was late to the people lined up before the start, but the quality of the used clothes was better than I expected. It's subtle if it's for purchasing purposes, but it's pretty cheap if it's for yourself. A group of university students seemed to be having fun hunting for old clothes.

I found one US Levi's in this all-you-can-pack, so I wonder if that alone is worth paying 2000 yen. Talon Zip's slacks were also made in the US and were a good bargain. Divided by 4 people, we could have bought 3 or 4 pieces for 500 yen per person, so everyone was satisfied.

However, on the other hand, I didn't have enough things to fill a bag by myself, so going with a few people and sharing the all-you-can-pack may be a good way to enjoy Saber's Field.

The following are some of the second-hand clothes that I actually purchased with all-you-can-pack. All purchases are in the video below.

In a warehouse in Sabersfield

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221550j:plain

If you talk to the store clerk, you can see a little inside the warehouse. If you think they are busy, see how they are doing and talk to them.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221553j:plain

Through the warehouse door, you'll find a pile of veils. very. It is a sight that you cannot imagine in Japan.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221555j:plain

I'm also curious about the creaky veil in the back. I want to buy a veil someday and try to sort old clothes by myself.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221617j:plain

There is a toilet in the warehouse that you can use.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221604j:plain

There appear to be two restrooms, but one was out of order.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221607j:plain

I took a commemorative photo with my friends in the veil before the restroom.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211015221609j:plain

It's the first time I've seen so many used clothing veils nearby, and I'm excited.

After visiting Sabersfield, it's also a good idea to check out the nearby vintage clothing stores. Sabers Numazu is also close from Gotemba Susono. I actually went to second-hand clothing stores in Numazu, Shizuoka Prefecture, Mishima area and Gotemba, Susono area. There aren't many used clothing stores around here, but there are some good ones. In particular, SAVERS' Susono Warehouse and Numazu store are famous for used clothing purchases and wholesale.
