I am highly recommending this second hand, vintage and consignment store. It's located on the…read morecorner of Ceintuurban, so easy to find. Right across from the new Marqt. You will find this unique second hand shop with a lot of clothes,shoes, purses, accessories, and new furniture. Everything a woman likes. Also a great spot to meet your girlfriends for tea and coffee. Price I would say is moderate. I am Queen of consignment shops, if you have followed my reviews. I always have a lot of unnecessary clothes, shoes and accessories that are too fabulous to give a way so easily from California. So, I drop it right off at the consignment shop for a great price. Also if you have any exceptional items that look like they are in perfect condition, then make sure to clarify the price that you would like to sell it for, but don't go in there asking a certain amount for basic brands. Just be grateful you sold it and made space in your closet for something new. What I love about this shop is that they are super professional, if you are dropping off any of your designers clothes, bags, and shoes, then you can track all of your items online here. They even transfer the funds to your account, if your not up to picking it up. They will hold your items in the shop for 3 months to sell, and send you a reminder email to pick up your items on the date that it is due. How awesome is that! I was please to hear that for every item they sell of yours that you get back half of the revenue from it. I thought that was awesome on their part, compared to some of the other business. I found a few stores in Amsterdam to be unorganized or unprofessional that I ran across when it comes to consignment stores. I rather associate with a business that has high standards, pleasant and on top of it when it comes to customer service and super friendly. Venten offers nice clothes at an affordable price, in an easy and organized fashion for pleasant shopping. The shop is very versatile in a good way. It sales new furniture, lamps, accessories, second-hand clothes for women and children. It's a great meeting spot for coffee. I was very impress how well organized the store was maintain. Make sure to check out both levels of the store. There are two levels in the shop.So you won't find any damage, messy, or unappealing piles of merchandise in the store. Owner is super nice, friendly, and professional, which is a double plus in my book.

Ideal for moms with little kidswanting to shop for vintage clothes. The fitting rooms and clothes are downstairs, which allows a good oversight of your kids while you try on some outfits. Tip: - Further south on the van woustraat, there are at least two more vintage shops. Venten is -due to prime location - more expensive.

'Over en Weer' is a second-hand clothing shop located at the end of the Rijnstraat. From the…read moreoutside this place might not look very interesting but when you go in you'll see that the actual shop is in the basement and is quite large. They sell clothing for both men and woman but their woman's section is a lot larger. When you search well you can actually find some really nice stuff for a good price at this place. Last week I saw several King Louie dresses priced for 20 euros and even stuff by Escada and Kenzo for quite cheap. What I think is weird about the place is that everything is in the same price range, not much difference if something is by H&m, C&A, King Louie or Kenzo. And I would never pay 20 euros for a second-hand H&M dress, but for a pretty King Louie dress I might. So the prices are a bit odd. This place is nice to check out every once in a while but since it is a bit out of the city centre it might be a bit far if you're living in west or something and I don't think its really worth a long bike ride.

Once in a while I will stop by this second hand shop and take a peek and explore their goods. What I appreciate about this shop is that they estimate their items at a reasonable price, because some of the shops in Amsterdam have really lost their mind in pricing second-hand items. The customer service is extremely polite and friendly. Once in a while, I will get lucky and find some really cool and unique things in here. You can also sell your unwanted clothes here too. The store owner buys them upfront, if she is interested in the items, but please keep in mind that the price maybe low.

The dressing rooms were challenging, as they were not on every floor, but the cash registers to buy were available on various levels. The building is beautiful, well lit and open with high ceilings on some floors. There's an elevator and some have stairs the higher the floors. The stairs were crazy-steep: we would never see that in an American store! The prices were spot on, my daughter found a sweatshirt for under $3Euros, which is amazing prices for Europe and America. Very happy shopping experience.

Really beautiful new location of H&M that just opened in the former building of Maison de…read moreBonneterie. It's enormous, spanning over 5 floors, and they've done a really beautiful job of preserving the original details and decorations of the Maison de Bonneterie. This is a new flagship store for H&M in Amsterdam, and what makes it really special (aside from the beautiful building itself) is that it's the only H&M in Amsterdam that has every H&M collection in the store including H&M Home. Admittedly some collections are there but don't have much space - I noticed that the H&M+ collection was only about two racks in one corner. It does boast a very large women's shoes selection, and I must say the dressing rooms were really nice. What this location definitely has over other H&M locations is the building - it's very spacious with high ceilings so that even on a busy pre-Christmas shopping day it didn't feel packed and claustrophobic. But I would recommend stopping by to have a look inside just to see the building, it's a beauty!

Not a great thrift store in my opinion. Yes it has a large selection. Yes it smells like mothballs…read more It has a men section, but mostly just old ugly womens clothes. Lots of jeans/jean jackets/jean vests at this location. I noticed most of the prices were a bit steep for used items, like leather gloves for 50 euros?? I understand they are leather but really? 50 euros? I just felt for the quality of most these good it was very overpriced and there was just stuff everywhere. You would really have to dig around to find anything of value. For me the smell, disorganization and ridiculously high prices would make me not want to come back.

They really do win when it comes to affordability. The only downside was that the size selection was pretty limited, but to be fair, it is late in the season so I expected things to be a bit picked over. The store itself is very large, but it definitely feels a bit worn out and dated. It honestly concerns me that it isn't better maintained, and it makes me wonder what the future holds for this location. That said, the inventory saved the day and I'm really glad I shopped here today. If you're willing to do a little hunting, you can find some great gems!

I needed to purchase some black socks for work, as well as buy a hat/ cap. My last cap/ hat from…read moreC&A was awesome (pure wool, made in Italy and a lovely colour!) so was hoping to strike lucky again. Alas, I struck out as the cotton socks I wanted weren't available for women (but oddly enough were available and in stock for men) and the hats/ caps they had - eh, none of the styles were ones that I liked. I do think this was a very well set out store. Its on 3 levels with ground floor for women, middle for the kids and top for the men, so easy to find stuff as its categorized so well. The cashiers are located towards the back of the store, behind the elevators in the women's section on the ground floor. It was easy on the returns too, as I was able to return another set of socks that I had purchased, but when I got home realized their quality wasn't to my taste.

Right on Scheldestraat you will find one of the best designer consignment and second handshops. Happy that I was able to stumble across another consignment shop in Amsterdam. Ladies if you have a lot of unnecessary bags, clothes, and shoes in your closet you can drop it off here for 2 months and they will sell it for you. Plus you can track your items online with them. It is always best to pick only shops that show you your account online, in order to prevent any drama. Mooi is so on top of it when it comes to professionalism. At Mooi you can also shop here for the best high-end and designer items at an economical price. They will sell your designer items for a good price and give you 50% of the revenue. I brought over so many clothes from California that I no longer have a desire to wear them, due to the weather, or experimental fashion I see here. Plus, it has been impossible to find space for all of my ridiculous amount of clothes, shoes and etc. Now that I live in Amsterdam, I have become more conscious of space and no longer the wasteful American.

Glad we did, the place was teeming with people from all sorts of life, tourist & locals just having a good time, listening to a live band, having Sausages, Frites & Beer, then it started to rain. We took refuge in a department store that turned out to be C & A. What great luck. Big sale was going on 30-50%, ended buy buying a ton of beautiful tops & pants for half the cost. This time we were in Amsterdam, going around checking out the restaurants and shopping stores when we bumped into C & A again. With huge sales and discounts going on, who can resist those beautiful offers. Must have bought a dozen items from tops to skirts & pants. There are a lot of styles that surely caters to everybody from teens to grandmas alike and everything is trendy . The staff were very friendly and helpful. Love this store, I'll surely look around for a C & A store whenever I am in Europe, with all the pricey stuff around, this place sure is very reasonable & affordable.
