Consumption of second-hand luxury fashion goods through online collaborative redistribution channels is prevalent yet underresearched. Drawing on the self-determination theory, this study aims to provide evidence to academia and the luxury resale industry regarding young adult consumers’ beliefs in sustainability and materialism in their adoption of subscribing to, renting, or purchasing second-hand luxury goods. An integrative conceptual model is proposed based on the theory to gauge the role of various factors driving Gen Z consumers’ collaborative consumption of second-hand luxury fashion goods. Using a self-administered online survey, the researchers collected 452 usable responses from Gen Z consumers and analyzed them using structural equation modeling. Results demonstrated that both intrinsic (e.g. the importance of sustainability) and internalized extrinsic factors (e.g. the importance of signaling status, the importance of expressing one’s taste) drive their online collaborative consumption of secondhand luxury goods via subscription and rental services, as well as purchasing such goods. The gap in the literature calls for investigating further motivations and behavioral intentions of Gen Z consumers’ consumption of second-hand luxury goods. By unveiling the multifaceted psychological factors influencing these consumers regarding online collaborative consumption, the researchers offer useful marketing insights for the luxury resale industry and other share-based retail industries.
Abstract
Consumption of second-hand luxury fashion goods through online collaborative redistribution channels is prevalent yet underresearched. Drawing on the self-determination theory, this study aims to provide evidence to academia and the luxury resale industry regarding young adult consumers’ beliefs in sustainability and materialism in their adoption of subscribing to, renting, or purchasing second-hand luxury goods. An integrative conceptual model is proposed based on the theory to gauge the role of various factors driving Gen Z consumers’ collaborative consumption of second-hand luxury fashion goods. Using a self-administered online survey, the researchers collected 452 usable responses from Gen Z consumers and analyzed them using structural equation modeling. Results demonstrated that both intrinsic (e.g. the importance of sustainability) and internalized extrinsic factors (e.g. the importance of signaling status, the importance of expressing one’s taste) drive their online collaborative consumption of secondhand luxury goods via subscription and rental services, as well as purchasing such goods. The gap in the literature calls for investigating further motivations and behavioral intentions of Gen Z consumers’ consumption of second-hand luxury goods. By unveiling the multifaceted psychological factors influencing these consumers regarding online collaborative consumption, the researchers offer useful marketing insights for the luxury resale industry and other share-based retail industries.
