Luxury Goods Now Sold at Convenience Stores: "Sold Out 16 Times Out of 38"

Let us take a look at the final, informative news piece.

Luxury goods at convenience stores.

It really feels like the world is changing.

From luxury bags to TVs and even robots, you can now order them through convenience store apps, it seems.

The weekly pop-up store hosted by CU on its Pocket CU app since early this year sold out 16 times out of a total of 38 runs.

It introduced items that are hard to find in regular convenience store branches, ranging from a Prada luxury bag worth about 2.7 million won to TVs and mini kimchi refrigerators.

In April, GS25 also became the first in the industry to take orders for humanoid robots through its app.

About 60 units were sold, ranging from a robot keyring priced in the 100,000-won range to a quadrupedal robot costing 4.76 million won.

Meanwhile, Seven-Eleven and E-Mart 24 also reported a sharp increase in pre-order reservations through their apps.

What else will we be able to buy at convenience stores in the future?

It certainly makes you wonder.
