Reviews
"Small shop, quite a bit of jewellery. Some items are priced a little high, but you could snag a bargain if you look hard enough. The staff I encountered were very friendly and nice."
"A good Vinnies with a good range. Plenty of clothes and heaps of books for a rainy island day. Staff are always absolutely lovely and happy to chat. Certainly a better op shop than the local salvos."
"Great clothing, bad service. I was buying a top here yesterday, and when I passed it to the cashier, she looked me up and down and said "There's no way that'll ever fit you..." in a judgemental tone. I responded saying how it will stretch but it left me quite flustered and upset, as it was super unnecessary and unprofessional. It is none of a cashier's business whether the clothes will fit me or not (which it did anyway). I was very disappointed with this lack of respect, and hope some more training is done so nobody else has to experience something like this again, it was quite upsetting."
"Always a pleasure to visit Cowes Vinnies! The ladies and gents are very friendly. The prices are super decent and always worth a rummage. I've been coming here since I was 12 and it hasn't changed; I always feel home."
