i see.
some thrift stores put some of the specialized stuff online for sale
and
some thrift stores have long had a special section of clothing (and another for other stuff) that they think may be especially valuable or desirable... and they mark up THOSE prices, without jacking up the prices on the 90% of regular stuff
(I think both approaches make good sense for the thrift stores, without doing too much damage to regular store shoppers who just need regular things at economical prices)
It’s pretty much across the board, here.
The “VIP” stuff is still separate from the regular clothes but overall, prices went up.
$4 jeans are now $8.
Even t shirts are up 50 cents and even then some are $3 and up depending on what’s on them.
