ha, no, i pretty much only use to buy used clothes. im just afraid to now these days cuz of all the bedbug infestations being reported everywhere! tho yeah 11217 is right it’s mostly new clothes places reporting the infestations.

Rob, come on, you’ve never bought vintage or used clothing before? It’s the only way to go!
it just is horrible cuz high heat in the dryer ruins so many kinds of clothes, no? or shrinks them insane
*rob*
that’s true 11217, you do have a point. i do hope people wash their clothes before selling them tho ! ahha
*rob*
Oh and Bergdorf Goodman had/has bedbugs too.
Rob,
Washing and drying clothing on high heat removes bedbugs and nearly all consignment shops wash their clothing before selling them.
It’s no difference than a store selling new clothing, in fact the places we’ve heard that have had bedbugs have been Hollister, Victorias Secret and Abercrombie…I’ve heard of NO vintage or used clothing stores having them so far.

LuLu’s to start selling used kids clothing in Park Slope
that is absolutely disgusting considering the huge bedbug problem in nyc. this will just make it worse! plus in a year or two im pretty sure selling used to stuff in a commercial establishment will be illegal.

i’d like to see a used kids clothing store with sizes about 5 as well. WB has Flying Squirrel which is terrific, but really doesn’t serve bigger kids.
For all the complaining and bad economic news, just today we have 3 new things opening in Park Slope…maybe Chipotle, The Bagel Market and this. The bagel place is the only one which appeals to me personally, but I’m very happy to see empty storefronts rented.
Oh and used kids clothes in Park Slope? Yea, this store is gunna make bank.
