I like Buffalo Exchange, but you have to look at this place like this:
- It's not a thrift store.
- I don't ever try to sell/trade anything. There's no point. The buyers are very inconsistent and it's completely subjective and left to their personal taste. But that's the way it usually is, anyway.
- You do have to devote some time to the racks. But you can find things here if you try.
"So you're not going to take these jeans because after an hour of scrutiny over this one tiny run in the fabric they're just not of good enough quality? Yet this leather jacket with the pen-stabbing HOLE in the front is $30? ...How about half off?"
"25%"
"30%"
"Deal."
Yes, I haggle on almost everything. If you're going to pass on my slightly damaged items, then I am paying less than what's marked for your slightly damaged items already on the rack. So if you treat it like a Guatemalan linen bazaar like I do, you can save some money.
