Reviews
"After visiting this store today, I'm not exactly sure who it is for. I assumed it would be reasonably priced 2nd hand goods for people doing it tough. What I found was outrageous. I'm not sure who is pricing items there, but it seems like something seriously fishy is going on here. Save yourself the trouble, go to St Vinnies or buy new, it's quite literally cheaper than here."
"6 months ago I visited this store it had great prices fantastic range of stock .. Dropped in yesterday omg what happened prices have gone from good to ridiculous its now cheaper to buy new items"
"Pricing is very inconsistent at this op shop, while on the odd occasion they'll have overstock clearance on furniture and bric-a-brac of say 50% off - that only makes the price 'reasonable'. The prices on electrical goods are outrageous, especially considering that you'll get a warranty at places like K-Mart for the same price / often cheaper. Stock sits around because it's overpriced, same pieces of average looking furniture sitting around for months - pictures of religious figures with ridiculous prices have been at this store for YEARS, yep that's correct, YEARS. Wouldn't donate my goods here and often gets skipped over on our op shop trips because low rotation of stock and we can't afford the ludicrous pricing. I feel sorry for the kind and friendly volunteers, I always get a friendly welcome and they work extremely hard - but the lifeline corporation has a whole, needs to wake up to themselves."
"Visited yesterday and clothing fill a bag for $10. Very happy with my purchases. Yes the vintage items may seem expensive but prices are compatible with vintage stores and there were some rare pieces there."
"Hands down the most obscenely overpriced op shop in South-East Queensland. Their prices make antique stores seem like your local dollar shop. The only explanation I can come up with is that the volunteers intentionally overprice the stock to avoid selling anything and then having to restock."
