Second-hand stores are commercial establishments that sell used products, offering a sustainable alternative for people looking to reduce the environmental impact of the fashion industry and other areas.
These stores allow you to buy used items such as clothes, accessories, furniture and electronics at more affordable prices than new products.
What’s more, by buying second-hand products, you’re contributing to the circular economy and reducing waste.
In times of crisis, it is often in these second-hand stores and associations that the best deals are found, with real bargains on anything and everything.
Keep an eye on the names of these second-hand stores!
