Abstract

This article focuses on the used underwear market, defined as the market for underwear that has been worn by one or more individuals and sold unwashed, meaning it contains deliberately left secretions and fluids. It distinguishes websites where the nature of the product sold must be concealed (such as resale websites for secondhand items) due to the prohibition of the transactions, and websites where the product can be openly discussed (such as websites specializing in the sale of sexual items). This distinction allows for the study of the issue of product qualification and disqualification in a contested market, which has been hardly explored. More broadly, this article helps identify the main characteristics of an overlooked market that, until now, has only been the subject of sensationalist analyses.
