It was a hot day and the store was so hot and stuffy that outside felt cooler. It was uncomfortable and hard to concentrate. The pricing was all over the place: inconsistent in my opinion. The secondhand furniture was good quality but varied from cheap to a bit high. I object strongly to goods that obviously have been donated sold at a high price and especially when they haven't been sold because they are unsaleable in normal shops. If it was an unpopular colour or style or size, or just in excess before donation how does being in an op shop make it more marketable? Being touted for a standard retail price is silly, and greed.
On the plus side it is nice to have a book browsing area where the potential buyer can sit and read. Mostly the layout is quite good. The staff seem approachable and pleasant.
