I probably wouldn't buy something if I thought it wasn't worth more than I paid for it to be fair, so in that respect all my thrifted or booty items are worth a bit more than I paid for them. I saw the Jane Norman frock tag in your last post and it exemplifies the reason to why I now frequent charity shops very rarely, around this neck of the woods their pricing has gone all Pete Tong. I personally think that charity shops should also serve the community that they are in by offering up cheaper alternative for the locals to your George of ASDA et al. I live in one of London's poorest boroughs and for a charity shop to ask a fiver for a well used bobbly nobbly Primark jumper feels like a bit of a slap in the face to me. I blame that pesky wench Mary Portas personally cause now all your charity shop chains are trying to go upmarket, och, I hope that hellhound never gets her hands on the car boot sales...what would we bargain hunters do if all the boot sales suddenly turned all boutique chic on us, eh?!<br />My best thrifting find, that yielded a healthy profit when I sold it on eBay a few years back was a vintage Azzedine Alaia frock that I bagged for a fiver...I'm still on the hunt for that elusive Ossie Clark frock but alas so far no luck. xFrocktasiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00649180645331805365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024913711365989296.post-88361024420009337802011-10-13T04:45:20.331-07:002011-10-13T04:45:20.331-07:00Nice find but I think I would eBay (I have a hatre...Nice find but I think I would eBay (I have a hatred of stuffed toys and as fast as I try and get rid my kids seem to adopt more!!!!)ChrisTea And Cakeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09895449364686932484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024913711365989296.post-50504190164079016052011-10-12T01:27:07.740-07:002011-10-12T01:27:07.740-07:00I'm with Keshling on this one.
