    I don't shop at second hand clothing stores. I don't always buy expensive designer brand name articles of clothing when i shop for clothes, and there are plenty of shops around that sell cheap clothing that look pretty nice too, so I dont see a need to get any second hand.

    Also, for hygiene reasons are another one of the reasons why I dont.
     
  2. No, never wore second hand cloths and i never intend in doing so, if i became very poor and i couldnt shop at even matalan or some place like that then i would have no choice. i really dont want to be wearing a dead guys wooly jumper

    I don't wear anything that belong to other people; so i guess the answer is nope. As for your 2nd ques, I don't really care for brand names, so it doesn't make much difference to me.

    I've never been to those before.

    I have seen those bins which people donate clothes but i just assumed that they give the clothes in the charity bin to people in need instead of selling it.

    Where do you live?

    Maybe second hand shops aren't popular in your part of the world
    or maybe you live in a rich neighbourhood that wouldn't find a customer base if they put up a second hand shop there
