Hi Anniebombell, thanks for yet another concise review. It is regrettable (and morally reprehensible) that so many opportunity shops are choosing personal ‘greed’ over consumer ‘need’. We too have noticed that (in many instances) ‘new’ items of apparel can in fact be purchased for considerably less than ‘secondhand’ ones. A prime example of this was mentioned in the review for Ballarat’s ‘Red Cross’ Opportunity Shop, where cheaper (new) dresses could be purchased from the local Myer store! We have now gotten to the point that we would rather ‘give’ things away (on Freecycle) rather than donate them to greedy secondhand stores that increase their wealth, while those in need continue to go without. Thank you kindly for the heads-up! Reeces
