Would you buy clothes from primark from a charity shop?

[Ilovebountybars]

Silly question I know. I sometimes see clothes I like in charity shops and when I look at the label, I see they are from Primark. I am conflicted about whether I should buy them or buy something from a more expensive brand like monsoon that will probably last longer (but I don't like it as much).

Would you buy clothes from Primark in a charity shop?

No, because they are often priced up at more than they would cost new!

Depends on the condition and how much they're charging. I've seen Primark stuff in my local charity shop and it's the same price as it would be brand new.

Unlikely because it's usually shit quality and never fits me, and unlikely to be any cheaper in a charity shop than new. However there's no "principle" stopping me - in fact it's probably better if it gets used for longer rather than going into landfill.

i volunteer in a charity shop and today saw we had a brand with tags Primark dress (£10 on label) priced at £4.50 which I think would sell.
If the price is fair, then no reason why Primark would not sell.

This is a bit of a weird question. If I liked it / it was what I needed and it was in good condition and it was fairly priced for a second hand item of Primark clothing then why wouldn't I buy it?

Yes of course. I have clothes from Primark that are excellent quality, it's a myth that all their stuff falls apart immediately.

If it was a fair price and I really liked it, yes. They have some good cuts and decent fabrics.

If it has been worn and washes a few times and still looked good then yes I would. I have some Primark stuff that has stayed in much better condition than much more expensive stuff.

The reasons I would choose an item of clothing from a charity shop is -
It's my size
I like it
It's a price I can afford and am happy to pay.
I don't care what shop it came from originally.

Yes if I liked it and the price was ok. Some Primark stuff lasts for years, I have stuff that I have passed down though all 3dc from there.

If I liked it and it was in good condition and priced fairly - I can't see a reason not to, same with anything else.

I don't shop much in primark but do have some items that are years old and in great condition that I still really enjoy wearing. The brand isn't as important as the fabric composition or quality IMO.

Depends what the items are tbh and i usually wouldnt buy 2nd hand primark stuff because it is worn out or ill fitting. However, I bought 2 reasonable looking shirts the other day from a charity shop for £3.99 a piece. They were both primark originally and I tried them on in the shop and they both fit fine.

I buy most of my stuff in charity shops, but usually it'd be more branded stuff.

I tend to buy the brands that I can't afford new in charity shops. I got into a rut when I was on maternity leave and could only afford Primark and ended up with a wardrobe full of shit clothes. Now I only mostly buy 2nd hand and have better clothes than I've ever had. Also, I buy better brands and if I don't like them or they don't fit, I sell them on Vinted.
I don't buy Primark because I find they are not much (if at all) cheaper in the charity shops than new. Having said that, if I saw somehting I really liked, I might buy it if the price was ok.

Sure. My daughter bought some F&F things not so long ago. I managed to snag a Liberty print shirt (with tags) for my son, but he's label conscious, she's not.

I have some stripy t shirts from Primark that are 5 years old and fine. Not everything is awful

Yes because the clothing industry is shite for the planet and there's enough clothes already in existence to clothe us all for a hundred years !
