second hand clothes

I don't really find something wrong buying clothes that are second hand usually here in our country, In major cities they have what they called Night Market where lots of seller sell second hand things from clothes to gadgets. If ever I will buy second hand clothes that I like, surely I will choose those that are branded and looks like used in short period of time. After buying those clothes I usually soak them or boil them to water to remove any unknown virus from the dress to avoid having a skin diseases. =)

There is nothing wrong in buying second hand clothes. I do that too time to time, just make sure you wash them before wearing. I had doubts though, not knowing who wore those clothes, and somehow it feels that they keep something from their owner's personality (or does it sound weird?). Anyway, I try to trust my intuitions to find the clothes that are good for me in this meaning too.

Second hand clothes are very cheap here in my country. But the thing is you have to choose and look for a good condition one. You just need to wash it completely so that it will be safe to wear. I do have some second hand bags and shoes. They all look new and look good. And it even has a brand name. Well, it depends on you. If you are saving money then go for the second hand items. If you have plenty of money original ones are the best. I guess.

I like to shop in second hand store they are very affordable and most of the stuffs are still in good conditions. Sometimes you can get lucky to see/get brand new clothes, shoes, bags and etc in the op-shops! I'm doing volunteer work in a second hand store (op-shop) and it was own or run by the charity, they do clean everything and steamed all the clothes to kill all sort of bacteria before putting them on displays or before selling them. On the other hand, shopping in the op-shop makes me feel better at the same time knowing I will be helping or giving something to the charity to help people.

Hi Neza, so far i haven't seen any second-hand clothes shop in my area. I usually bought all my family clothes from shops and shopping malls that sells new clothes. I think i don't have the guts to buy any second-hand clothes since i am not sure how clean is the clothes. I always donate my second-hand clothes to charity centers since i no longer in need of them. I always wash clean my clothes before donate them away. But, i am not sure whether they will do the same before sell off their clothes to the second-hand clothes shops.

I don´t mind second hand clothes if they fit me and I like them. I have a friend who can only buy second hand shoes for herself, unless someone goes abroad. In my country, the largest shoes are one number less than her feet. But at second hand stores she gets shoes for her and clothes for her husband who is VERY tall.

I buy second hand clothes from time to time. There are many second-hand shops where I'm from that sell really good material and a low cost. Basically, I purchase a lot of second hand stuff when you walk into an apartment. Some of them from garage sales and others from surplus shops. I see nothing wrong with that as long as the item is in good condition. Clothes bought must be thoroughly cleaned, and you'll be fine.

I have never brought second hand clothes,are sell it before. their are a lot of second hand stuff that still good, that people sell.but here in Jamaica people don't normal sell second hand clothes,we give them to some people who are really in need of it. I know here that ,they sell second hand furniture. but some people have some nice second clothes,and if people are going to buy them please to wash them before you wear it.

they re good. i buy them but the problem i have with second hand clothes is that i dont get to test them for my size before buying.

I think it is okay to buy second-hand clothes as long as you washed it with hot water and let it stay with soap for about an hour. I often buy clothes at surplus stores in our place. What's nice with surplus clothes is that it is budget-thrift and you can save a lot of money, anyway clothes are bound to be disposed even if you buy brand new items so why not considering the second-hand clothes.

For me, I don't see anything wrong in buying second hand clothes as long as it still looks good. I myself is buying one coz I have seen a lot of nice clothes from these stores and they are much much more affordable. They don't look like second hand after I wash them well, just make sure to check the clothes well before buying to ensure that its free from any discoloration and unwanted slits...

I have been buying second hand clothes and I am not ashamed of it. It saves money as you can get some good quality in a fraction of the price for a new one. As long as you clean it nicely, I don't see the problem. You can even find unused clothes in a second hand store. Of course, it is entirely upto you whether you want to wear second hand clothes or not. I love browsing through Charity Shops knowing that I can afford whatever I find in there. Where as if I go to a normal shops, I can't afford most of them. I don't want to go into expensive store either. Even in the normal shops, there are things that I just would not be able to afford.

Hey there.. In all honesty I see no shame buying clothes from a second hand shop.. they are good quality, And you can find some real treasures when you have a good look.. The way I see it.. as long as your covered- who can complain where you bought them from?. All the best..(",)

here in my country, many people buy 2nd hand clothes from other countries..in fact, even doctors and rich people buys them too..it's not that all of their clothes are bought second hand..but they buy some clothes there.. you just have to know how to wash them right..because second hand clothes that are imported have some chemicals on it..you can tell it with their smell..and of course, bacteria are present because everything is mixed.. there's nothing wrong in wearing second hand clothes also..it depends how you carry your clothes..some also re-modify the 2nd hand clothes they bought..

hello there! i agree that when u get to buy second-hand clothing you should wash it carefully because you dont know where it came from, how long it was stored and who used it last. second-hand clothes are very practical nowadays and for a minimum cost you buy a lot and mix and match them. i love buying 2nd hand clothes, it's fun and makes one's creativity unleashed! :)
