Would you sell your marathon medals?

Recently, when I was browsing the second-hand trading website, I accidentally saw a lot of information on the sale of marathon medals. I was surprised to see these.

In fact, on many second-hand trading platforms, in addition to the medals for the competition, there are also event quotas, T-shirts for competitions, and even towels for the competition, which are all goods that many people resell.

I worked damn hard for that medal and I'm proud of it. How can I sell it?

At the same time, the matter of how to dispose of the marathon medals has also caused heated discussions among netizens: some people say that the sellers do n’t cherish the medals, and they will sell them easily; others say that this proves that there is such a demand in the market. Perhaps it was vanity. Some people also understand that maybe there are many races run, and the medals are not so important to you. You can still earn some registration fees if you transfer them out.

In fact, there is no final conclusion about the trading of medals. After all, the medals are obtained by the runners themselves, and the disposal rights are individual. As long as they are not illegal, we have no right to interfere. With the increase of domestic and foreign marathon competitions, contestants participate in more and more competitions, and the medals they receive increase, so how to deal with these medals has become a problem in front of runners.

I also sorted out the methods for disposing of the medals of runners online. Let's take a look together.

Place everywhere 

Some runners, I asked him: "Where did you put your medals?", He said: "Always I put them randomly, I can't remember..." Compared with the medals for the race, for them, the running process is more important, the medal is just a form, don't care so much. All medals after the competition are packed into the storage box! It is indeed a good way to save time, effort, money and space!

Elaborate mounting 

Compared with the above runners, these runners are very ceremonial. Not only did they meticulously collect the medals they ran through, but they also framed them. If they came to their homes as guests, they would feel quite seductive.

For runners who do n’t care much about the medals and are good at sharing, they usually choose to donate the medals to friends and relatives or friends in the running circle, especially in the games with low winning rates. If friends do n’t win, they may want to keep a medal as a memorial; The runner directly gave the medal to his child as a toy to play. Anyway, they ran out, and it ’s useless to keep the medal.

Although everyone handles medals differently, there is no distinction between pros and cons. As long as everyone runs happily and enjoys the running process attentively, how do you deal with marathon medals? Any good suggestions? Come and share with us!
