*Review of the best according to the editorial. About the selection criteria. This material is subjective, not an advertisement and does not serve as a guide to purchase. You should consult with a professional before buying.
Second hand stores in Russia had a mixed attitude when they first appeared. Some people firmly associate them with a flea market and dirty, shabby and of poor quality. They thought the stores were for people with low incomes and that other people simply had no business there. Abroad, it has always been just the opposite attitude to this format of retail outlets in which you can buy not only clothes but also household appliances, furnishings and even cars.
In the first second hand shops in our country the used things were piled randomly in the general baskets and you had to look for something suitable for yourself. In an era of scarcity, they have become a lifesaver for many fashionistas. After all, only there you could buy a branded item for ridiculous money. Modern second hand stores are different from the first stores. Today they are well-organized retail outlets where things are neatly hung (many of them are not used, but brand new with labels) and where you can find exclusive brand clothing from last year’s collections at a price several times lower than their real value. And many citizens have changed their minds and made second hand stores a regular shopping destination.
In every city there are fans of these stores. Moscow is no exception. Our rating includes 12 second hand stores in Moscow, which our experts have chosen together with ordinary consumers and which are in the lead among many other similar institutions.
