Would like to start up a used clothing store

[ddorey]

Does anyone have any info on where to purchase the best used clothing (brand names) and shipping to Nova Scotia. Any tips would be greatly appriecated.

Many thanks

Do consignment and organizations like diabetes or Salvation Army may sell by the lb.

Why do you want to buy a bunch of used clothing? Are you going to sell it at a profit?

Buy new from Korea for $0.50 a piece and make a fortune.

My point was that buying and selling used clothing was not part of the spirit in which the clothing was donated.

That what Value Village does. They aren't a charity. They buy donated clothing from charities by the lb and resell at very very good profits.

B4 you invest to much into it, think Bed Bugs.
Those little buggers are causing problems for a number of businesses.
Not sure if it applies to your region (yet) but the stigma that they bring is hard to shake for the re-usable sector.
