2dehands / 2ememain
Peer-to-peer marketplace · 2dehands.be
2dehands and 2ememain are one Belgian classifieds site with two names: 2dehands.be in Dutch and 2ememain.be in French, with the same listings behind both. With BuyHub you search it in English from any country, see prices in your currency and get an alert the moment a matching ad goes up.
What do 2dehands and 2ememain mean?
Both names mean second-hand. 2dehands is short for tweedehands, the Dutch word, and 2ememain stands for deuxième main, its French equivalent. People type it every possible way, from 2 eme main to 2de hands, and it all leads to the same marketplace: the FR switch on 2dehands.be simply opens 2ememain.be. There is no English or German version.
The site belongs to Adevinta and is run by Marktplaats B.V., the company behind the Dutch Marktplaats. eBay bought 2dehands and 2ememain in 2013 and sold them to Adevinta with the rest of its classifieds business in 2021.

Online since 1999, 2dehands is one of the most popular second-hand sites in Belgium. It runs on the same platform as 2ememain, its French-language edition, so ads from Flanders, Brussels and Wallonia feed a single shared market. Most listings come from private individuals, who can generally post for free, with local shops alongside them. Buyers and sellers sort out the details by message: haggling over the price, asking for extra photos and settling on collection in person or delivery.
For collectors, the draw is trading cards, comics, retro consoles and games, vinyl, old toys and antiques, often straight from attic clear-outs or collections being broken up, plus European editions that seldom reach international sites. Ads are written in Dutch or French, depending on the seller, and priced in euros. Most deals stay local, but some sellers will ship abroad if it is agreed beforehand.
