I only read a few follow up reply to this post. But I am going to switch up the subject a bit.
There are high end vintage store like Wasteland on Melrose Ave that would buy your old clothes, but they only buy designer labels. They actually pay pretty good money, about 30% of the retail price for your used clothes. Makes me wonder if it's worth it for me to start buying designers labels especially if I can get them on sell.
$100 designers shirt that I can recoup $30 = $70 spent
$60 Zara shirt = $60 spent
Fabric of designer shirt is better, more unique pattern. A lot of times I can spot a Zara shirt, blazer in a club. Although fit is most important, people can tell nice fabric or even feel them, figuratively.
Wasteland is pretty good. There are lots of stores like that in L.A.
