If you have a high-end or stylish wardrobe, then Buffalo Exchange may be your favorite new venue to exchange the old for something new. Just don’t expect to bring in a bag full of your old high school clothes and come out with a big wad of cash.
Located at 131 East 5th Avenue in Eugene and a short walk from the Amtrak station, Buffalo Exchange sells vintage and antique clothes and will buy your old clothes for cash or in-store credit on the spot.
Be aware, the girls who work here may not buy everything you bring in. Buffalo works on a trade system, where the clothes it buys become a part of the inventory it sells. The staff will decide whether or not to buy the clothes you bring in and how much they’re willing to pay you. You can get cash or in-store credit for the items they take, and usually you can get more in-store credit than cash.
Designer items are in high demand as well as anything that’s in season (as determined by the staff). Unique items or pieces that are trending may bring in a good price, but clothes that don’t raise eyebrows probably won’t get a high bid either.
For those who value style and want well-priced access to trendy clothes, visiting Buffalo Exchange may be something to put on your to-do list.
