Mobile Market Co., Ltd., which sells and rents used mobile phones, has started a "Garakei Stockpiling Campaign" in which another mobile phone is free when you purchase a feature phone, the so-called "Garakei". Limited to 50 sets will be sold. [Photo] The 2014 doCoMo "N-01G" is a popular model with many numbers. The "feature phone stockpiling campaign" is only available at Rakuten Ichiba stores operated by the mobile market from December 17th to December 29th. Available for purchase. The price is 2 patterns of 3980 yen and 4980 yen (both including tax), and if you purchase one 2014 docomo "N-01G", one 2014 docomo "SH-03E" will be free. DoCoMo announced that it will stop the 3G line in March 2014. While the number of users switching to 4G line feature phones and smartphones is increasing, many users are still using feature phones with 3G lines. The mobile market was founded in 2008 when the 3G iPhone appeared in Japan. In the fall of 2017, a feature phone specialty store was opened in Kanda, Tokyo, and sales were steadily increasing with the support of a certain number of feature phone users. However, demand gradually declined, and in 2020, the Kanda main store was closed due to the influence of the new coronavirus. The company, which has grown along with the history of feature phones, says, "We have an obligation to keep an eye on feature phone users until 2026, and we would like to support the" feature phone refugees "that will emerge in the future as much as possible."
