Let's hope Buffalo Exchange can afford to stick around. Yeah, the lady at Annabelle's told me it was the skyrocketing rents that drove her out.

One has to wonder though why two longterm businesses had to leave. Most people on this blog would attribute it to the "massive crime epidemic". In reality rents went up because ballard has great potential. I welcome this new establishment. One has to wonder though why two longterm businesses had to leave.

They buy for the season, so if it is summer sell summer clothing. Jeans are the only thing that is really year round. Also the condition of the items are important. They do not buy clothing with any stains, holes, fading, and fuzz balls. They are not label driven, but more importantly they base their buys on how current the style is. They buy Old Navy to Marc Jacobs. They also buy retro/vintage items as well. Hope this helps everyone out. If you want to sell at Buffalo Exchange, this is what you need to keep in mind.

Try bringing stuff in, though, if they don't like it, you can choose to either take it back or donate it. Excellent! Now I don't have to make time to get the U district.

Everything else was name brand, and less than a year old. I was pretty surprised. If you have pretty high end clothing or something trendy you should be okay. I took my clothes to Plato's Closet in Bellevue and they bought everything. Although I do think Buffalo Exchange is a great store to buy clothes at. I am really excited to shop next month!

I'd love to trade some of my older clothes for new things, but I'm not sure if a more trendy store would want a whole lot of it, lol.
