Mum walks into local charity shop and is floored by price of designer top

By staff17 August 2025No Comments3 Mins Read

A woman was left gobsmacked when she went into her local charity shop and found a designer jacket that was so cheap in comparison to what she could resell it for

Shopping at charity shops typically guarantees great bargains and unique finds - but in some affluent areas you will find discounted designer goods (stock image)

Charity shops can be so exciting, as you just never know what items you’re going to find. The possibilities are endless, and some are well known for being stocked with designer gear. But when one woman saw the price of a well-known designer top, she couldn’t believe her eyes, as they’re reselling second-hand for almost £200.

Emily, who posts on TikTok as @thriftingwithem, shared she had an “amazing find at the charity shop,” saying she couldn’t believe it. She noted that “as per usual, there were some stunning pieces” she found, but there was one top she couldn’t stop thinking about.

The mum is a reseller, so she will purchase things from her local charity shop at the reasonable price they command, and then she will sell them on at a higher price.

She shared she managed to bag some Tom’s espadrilles for £5.99, and then later sold them on for £20 when she took them home, photographed them, and put them up on the app. “I sold them within 10 minutes of listing them on Vinted,” Emily boasted.

Emily then showed off a dress that still had the tags for a tenner, which was “still on the website for £79,” and a sweet Ted Baker dressing gown for £7.99.

She found a Diane Von Furstenberg dress for £24.99, and it can resell, according to Emily, for around £150.

There was a new Topshop dress for £5.99, and she said she “loved” it, and with the retailer having a resurgence on ASOS thanks to Cara Delevingne, it’s likely a good time to purchase this brand.

A Sea Salt Cornwall dress also caught her eye for just £7.99, and there was a Next denim top with a sweet frilly collar for £4.99.

“But this is where it gets interesting,” she continued, as on the video she pulled out a black top, which turned out to be the designer brand Off-White.

“I found an Off-White jacket for £6.99. If this is real, there is one selling online at the moment for £180,” she gushed, asking people to tell her whether they thought it was authentic or not.

Emily also noted if this jacket was purchased brand new with tags from the retailer, it would’ve cost over £400.

In the comments, some criticised her for reselling items from a charity shop, but Emily defended herself, saying the shop “knows” that she’s a “reseller”.

Someone wrote: “Sorry, just to get this right, you buy stuff from a charity shop, and then sell it again at a higher cost for personal gain?”

Emily replied: “Yes, it’s a great side hustle if you are looking to supplement your income. The charity shop makes money, and so do I. I buy from carboot sales, supermarkets and online auction sites to resell too!”

A TikTok user said: “From what I can see that [the Off-White jacket] looks legit.” Lots of other people agreed.
