An op shop so cool it takes two shops to sell its stuff…read more I spend most of my shopping time in the clothes and little things side. This is because I like clothes, and I have no need for the furniture. It also sells stuffed toys, a huge array of books, shoes, curtains, fabrics, knitting gear. Really, everything, and all at spare change prices. The stock changes all the time, too, so it's worth popping in whenever you're in the area. Be warned, though, they're running very low on space, so you might end up in a customer traffic jam (the aisles are only one person wide), or if you're clumsy like me you might find yourself on the floor having tripped over a long wedding dress. I've had it recommended to me a few times as the op shop to go to for shoes. I don't know why this is, I didn't find anything I could wear - but then I have large wide feet so perhaps it's my problem, not theirs.

They have a really nice selection of items that is well taken care of. There was a suitcase there but my friend didn't end up getting the one they had as it was as small as the one she brought. The ladies that work there were friendly and helpful.

Just behind Toorak Village is a little secret those hoity toity women like to keep hushed…read more The Toorak Op shop is a narrow little store brimming with labels where the stock reflects the location. Dresses, suits, shirts, shoes are all neatly arranged making browsing convenient, no real hunting here. The store is too small to even consider less than perfect garments and they have a consistently high turnover of stock. Think 80's Country Road, Feathers, Basque, Perri Cutten, Anthea Crawford, Regatta, costume jewellery, hats, party heels, etc. The staff all know their labels and price accordingly, the prices are still a bargain for the quality of stock but be prepared to pay between $20-$50 for a mens suit/evening dress. There are still some cheap fun things to be found, books, cds and records for $1

The shop is run by volunteers to fund education qualifications for young people and the disadvantaged. They rely on donations of all their stock. They sell items inclusive of clothing, dvds, cds, books, toys and bric-a-brac. They only take quality items that are in good condition so there aren't any shockingly horrible things in there. The atmosphere is pretty friendly. People pop in and out as much to have a chat as to pick up something from the shop. The prices are fairly reasonable - the nicer and the newer an item the higher the price. It is logical. There are some prices that are a little higher than I would expect for an op shop but it is all going to a good cause so complaining is definitely not an option. There is also quite a large range of furniture and decor items in this op shop - definitely check it out.

They sort the clothing by gender and type of clothing, with regular ongoing sales on certain items. The prices were quite fair for the selection and quality of stuff they have. The shop is located along the iconic Chapel Street, where there's lots of weird vintage shops and eclectic clothing shops, so I figured this would be a good place to scope out some weird clothes. Storehouse didn't disappoint! They had ugly Christmas sweaters on display, and all kinds of old stuff. They not only sell clothes, but have plates, dishes, cups, bowls, and some cookware. They've got a good selection of old books at cheap prices, so if you leave the book on the train, it's not a big deal. The staff was on the ball, running the register and answering questions.

Unlike those that become chains and spread their good everywhere, the true locals can almost appear like some sort of time capsule. One thing I've started doing is going through the music and book collections more and more. I think maybe this gives a very different insight into the place. The Epilepsy Op Shop, located on South Parade near Blackburn Station, is one such op shop. The ladies behind the counter are courteous and friendly, and while you may have to speak up they can tell you all about the bits and pieces in here. The clothes are more fashion suited for women, with their flowing skirts and floral prints. My girlfriend managed to come across quite a few winners here, though the clothes I get for myself have more of a novelty value.. There's a lot of craft pieces - buttons, zippers and more - towards the back for those looking to adapt their own pieces from the clothes they buy, and the small range of furniture taking up the remaining space is hit and miss.
