The Mother of All Second Hand Shops in KL

by Ice on November 28, 2012

  

This post is for our friend RE. He has left Slice and Ice in charge of furnishing his new corporate flat in Kuala Lumpur.

Being the fiscally responsible type and a man who loves a bargain, Slice quickly located a massive seconds joint.

This isn’t just any seconds joint. They have three warehouses and as I write we are waiting for this monsoon…

to abate so that we make our way to their most GINORMOUS location which is housed in an underground car park. Three acres of seconds? I cannot imagine!

Our first priority is to locate some beds. Since Kedai Kaki Lelong gets a lot of their stock from hotels we felt sure we could find something suitable! We found heaps of mattresses!

And we picked this one out especially for Miss C …

With the money we save on beds we can fit this into the budget: a fabulous Jewish Baroque sofa set! We know RE will just love this! And it is so comfortable.


But now we need to replace a rather boring chandelier that hangs in the cathedral-like living area and we thought this marvelous piece would go nicely with the sofa! Just to put it in perspective, this chandelier is approximately 2 meters (6 feet) across. James, the Proprietor told us that this piece originally hung in a very prestigious government building used to entertain dignitaries and the original purchase price was $US360,000. So it’s a bargain at MYR70,000 ($US23,000).

Oh! Or maybe this one! We can’t decide. This came from Masjid Jamek.

Oh and wait until you see the dining set which will go perfectly with the chandelier and the sofa!

Now we’ll need some lamps…

And some crockery…

A beer jug…we’re really not crazy about this brand of beer but we love the logo!

And maybe some linen…

Finally…we’re thinking of running a bicycle rental business out of the new corporate flat. Look what we found! I counted over 30 of these brand new (and I mean still in the original wrapping) electric bikes.

The Kedai Kaki Lelong Shop. There are 4 locations. We did make it to the three acre warehouse. Unbelievable. Here are just a few of the 200 shots I took…


Oh Look! A brand new King size latex bed! I wonder if we can take the other mattress back?

All I wanted to do was get in there and organize the place!

What fun!

You can find the contact details and a map to Kedai Kaki Lelong shops at this website.

Hi, I want to buy a second-hand cutlery and crockery .
May I know where is shop location?

Ice June 12, 2013 at 11:37 am

Kedai Kaki Lelong is the name of the shop. There are three locations. If you go to this page http://www.kkltrading.com you will find addresses and a map. They have lots of crockery and cutlery at both the Petaling Jaya and Ara Damansara shops. I think the nicer quality is at Petaling Jaya. Haven’t been to their Shah Alam shop.

Martin August 18, 2013 at 12:31 pm

Wow. Things have changed in the last 2 months! Some of the set-up is the same, but as far as sofa’s are concerned, there’s very little left. And what was, was stained and damp. Still worth a drive if you want to buy dining chairs.

Hey Guys – i just moved to KL and have been looking and looking for a non-Ikea furniture option and googled my way to this page. Wonderful! Going this afternoon. Cheers!

Ice January 14, 2014 at 11:33 am

Hello Deen
When we visited this shop in December 2013, the bikes were about MYR 900 without the battery. MYR 1300 with the batteries.

Just in case you think this is our shop it isn’t. We’re just customers.

This is the kind of shop that you have to visit it often to get the good stuff or try their other locations.

Ice July 14, 2014 at 10:43 am

They’ve changed their website. Here the correct link to Kedai Kaki Lelong.

June July 15, 2014 at 3:34 pm

Thanks for this posting. I never know where to look for second hand furniture in Malaysia. I will definetly be stopping by this place next time I’m in KL. Cheers

James July 17, 2014 at 1:09 am

I am heading to Kuala Lumpur in 2 weeks. Does this place sell small things like clothes, books or dishes? Do you have any recommended second hand shops in Kuala Lumpur?

Ice July 17, 2014 at 1:30 am

They sell dishes and cutlery. No books or clothes. There are all sorts of little local markets for clothes. The best and least expensive place to get second hand books is in one of the corners of the 3rd floor of BB Plaza (Bukit Bintang). I think it is the 3rd. It is the same floor where the Post Office is located. When you leave the post office, go left and just walk the perimeter of the floor until you hit the books shops. There is a shop that sells “expired” magazines (huge choice) and there are two used book shops next door. The selection is extensive. Paperback books are in excellent condition…many unused…and are priced between RM5 to RM10 each and the more you buy the cheaper they get.

Yilynn August 10, 2014 at 11:26 am

Hi may I know which of the three locations you visited for this post ?

Ice August 10, 2014 at 12:04 pm

Hello Yilynn
The first part of the photos are from the Petaling Jaya Shop. From the yellow bicycle photo onwards, these are from the Ara Damansara shop.
You will find the address details for both shops on their website here.

They have three shops. One is at: Lot 4, Jalan 19/1B, Petaling Jaya. You will have to call them on 019 888 5884 or (03) 7957-5942 to get the address to the other two shops. One is in Shah Alam and the other in Ara Damansara. I’m sure their website will be back up soon. It is under maintenance.

Mattelie Goodman November 25, 2014 at 9:03 pm

Went there today and picked up the perfect TV/stereo cabinet, a fantastic cream fabric covered couch with chaise lounge and a couple of powerful air conditioners for excellent prices. There’s lots of forgettable hotel stuff in there but dig deep and you can find some gems.

Ice February 8, 2015 at 11:34 am

How about a full sentence. I don’t understand the question.

Jayne February 23, 2015 at 1:01 am

Gosh.. some of the comments here are just ridiculous. READ PEOPLE! Ice posted the location about 1000 times..

On a side note, great write up. This made me chuckle quite a bit. Think you got a good deal with that mattress.

Ice February 23, 2015 at 12:47 pm

I am glad you enjoyed the post Jayne. I think you must be the first person’s who has actually read the comments!

Thank you for this post Ice and I’m looking forward to visit this weekend. Can’t believe there are some monkeys here who don’t read when you have posted their address gazillion times. Tq again!!

Ice May 14, 2015 at 3:53 am

It is a bit comical really. Just goes to prove the high level of “attention deficit” in the online community. Enjoy your visit to The Mother of All Second Hand Shops. It is a lot of fun.

Ally May 18, 2015 at 9:40 pm

Too bad I’m in Perak…otherwise I’d go there proto.

PS.ANd as I was browsing through looking for more opinions, it’s kinda annoying when the site admin already posted REPETITIVELY he/she does NOT owned the shop,…. just posting the info. Yet, some posters here are daft / blind. Or keep asking where / how to buy, etc when it’s clearly posted out. Admin, you need to ban these goons.
