About the Business
Welcome to Secondhand School Supplies, located on Star Street in Geelong, Victoria. We are a unique institution that combines the benefits of a book store, clothing store, and school establishment. As a point of interest in the community, our store offers a valuable service for both buyers and sellers.
At Secondhand School Supplies, we specialize in the consignment sale of pre-loved secondary school items. If you have old textbooks, uniforms, or calculators that are no longer needed, you can leave them with us on consignment. We will take care of selling them to other families on your behalf, ensuring that they find a new home and you earn some extra cash.
For those looking to purchase school supplies, we invite you to bring your booklist and uniform list to our store. Here, you can find all the items you need at significantly discounted prices. By buying from us, you can make substantial savings on your school expenses. We offer various payment options, including cash, card, and store credit, for your convenience.
Why should you support Secondhand School Supplies? Firstly, we sell secondary school products in good condition at around 2/3 of the current retail price. This means you can get everything you need for school without breaking the bank. Additionally, when you consign your items with us, the selling price is split equally between you and the store. It's a win-win situation!
Our success is evident through the support of our community. Over 10,000 local families have already consigned their old school stuff with us. This means that not only are we helping families save money, but we are also promoting sustainability by giving these items a second life. Our track record speaks for itself - we must be doing something right!

Reviews
"Have been going here for years and always found them great to deal with :)"
"I and my daughter went to Geelong Star St, Second-hand uniform to get my kids school books. I gave the lists to the shop keeper (lady). She got me the books , I asked her "if she accepted health care card ". She said yes to me I asked her how much would i need to pay , she said nothing. She put the books aside for me. I went to have a look at the uniform when I went at the counter she asked me is that all what I needed, I said yes. The books was on the top of the counter bench. At first the maths book was in a really good condition and the code was not been used but their was a different maths book on the top a very old one with ripped off. I asked her is that the same book she said yes. I told her that the first book was in a good condition. She said because I'm getting those books on concession card so she change it to a different one , I asked her if the code has been activated she said yes. I told her my daughter won't be able to use this book. She said I can't give you all the fund in a very loud way in front of our customers. She said that twice. And told me if I went the good condition maths book I've to pay $20. I said I'm happy to pay the $20. She took the books to put it on the system. She was talking nicely to other customers because they were paying by there cards. But she was very bad to me , I told her I was hurt by the way she talk to me saying that she isn't going to give me all the fund and told her I've asked you to give me all the fund. Then I told her I will pay the full price of the books not on concession. She took the books from. A guy came I told him what happened I feel really, why she treated me bad because I'm using concession card to get the books or because I'm a Muslim and I'm wearing hijab. He told me " my wife doesn't talk like that and told me to get out from the shop and never come back again". I was in shock my daughter start crying in the car we were both shaking."
