I groaned when all that 'vintage' stuff came in. I knew off the bat it'd trash the traditional charity shop. Look at Oxfam - I don't like them at all, there's something sinister and exploitative about it from what I've heard about some of their practices. You can't get jack in any of these places anymore (cept yr pilfered vinyl). BHF - WTF? Why would I need a lilac polyester scarf and a Jackie Collins novel? Those places always seemed about to be full of adventure in some sad way. |

He was straight out of the seediest crime fiction wasn't he? He'd have been found dead half way through a Spillane novel.

We had one of those places in my town for years, run by a couple who retired eventually. As you say, stacked floor to ceiling with stuff of a varying nature. One good sneeze and you would have been buried etc! Only found a few things, mainly records, paperbacks etc, but twas always a hoot to go there. Ah, memories!

Right, I'm going to chip in now, I've always hated the gentrification of Manchester in the last 10 years, it's just too smooth and clean. I'm glad I'm not the only one that misses the grub. Although of course some things had to change but most major cities have gone the same way and all just look the same.
