Just wondering if there's much in the way of vintage shopping or thrift stores? I've read there are some used clothing stores around harajuku, but if anybody could expand and give me any tips that would be amazing.
Thanks in advance!  |
Vintage clothing stores are common and popular in shopping districts (I am thinking like Ame-mura in Osaka) but don't expect to find bargains there. I don't think I have ever seen a Goodwill type store, where donated clothes are sold at a discount. I know Japanese that come to the US to go bargain hunting, and then sell their clothes at "vintage" prices in Japan.
