How to say "goods" in Japanese

• 商品しょうひんJLPT N3approx.Common
  nounThe default word for goods as merchandise: products a shop or website offers for sale. Think of it when 'goods' means items customers browse, compare, and buy.

  Goods at the food and clothing stalls were very cheap.
• グッズCommon
  nounThe loanword for merchandise, especially goods sold in connection with characters, celebrities, or events — the kind of items fans collect. Not the usual word for ordinary products in a shop.

  nounGoods as supplies or materials rather than products for sale: bulk goods needed, stored, or transported, such as relief supplies sent to a disaster area.
  お金かねは物資ぶっしを売買ばいばいしたり、価値かちを測はかったり、富とみを蓄たくわえたりするのに使つかわれる。↗

  Money is used for buying or selling goods, measuring value and storing wealth.
• 物品ぶっぴんCommon
  nounA formal word for goods as physical articles; you meet it chiefly in official, legal, or administrative contexts such as inventories and regulations.
• ウェアCommon
  noun, noun (suffix)A marginal match: this loanword really means 'wear' — clothing and things worn — so it is seldom the word you want when 'goods' refers to merchandise or supplies.

Use 商品 for goods as merchandise for sale, 「グッズ」 for fan or character merchandise, 物資 for supplies and materials, 物品 for formal articles in official writing, and rarely 「ウェア」, which means clothing.
