I just can't imagine feeling comfortable in clothes that were worn by a total stranger.

~When you think about it tho,there's a very likely possibility the clothes you do eventually buy in stores have been Tried/Tested/Returned by more than one "Stranger" grin

Isn't 2nd Hand clothes,Vintage

~Not all Second-hand Clothes are Vintage!

~The Term Vintage will be given to any Clothing belonging to another Era,usually in it's original condition & at least 25yrs or more old. . .they are most times usually bought Second-hand whether they have been worn or not!

I am currently operating a second hand clothing warehouse based out of Houston, Texas.
We have just purchased a 107,000 square foot building are expanding our customer base. I am only looking for long-term customers who have financial stability.

My objective as an operator of sorting/grading facility is to provide the best quality products for your end users period. My father always told me in order to succeed in this business I have to focus on quality and being upfront with my customers at all times. It is because of this that I am able to grow in size during a time where everyone else is cutting production and Africa is slowing down in purchasing. However my goods are still being pre-sold before they reach my customers ports and godowns are still experiencing crowds of people when my goods arrive.

Since I provide a high quality of goods, I have higher cost associated with raw material therefore my prices are not the cheapest in the market. However, my customers are able to charge better prices and rotate their inventories quickly which in the end of the day is a win-win situation for everyone.

When I do everything on my end to send quality containers as per our terms, I expect my customers to pay as per our agreed terms. Typically, we ask for a 50% deposit and 50% of the funds due upon shipping the container. This is very important because in order to buy the best raw material I have to put money down weeks in advance to suppliers and therefore cash flow must not be interrupted.
If you are interested in working with a reliable supplier for second hand clothing I would love to speak to you.

I am currently also exporting vintage grades, shoes, toys, bric'n'brac, raw institutional material, and credential clothing.
You can reach me via my e-mail at Imran@DiscountRagsUSA.com or via office at 713.229.0400. Feel free to visit our website as well at www.DiscountRagsUSA.com.

wow some people are harsh on here! Im from London and over here vintage and second hand is seen as cool, half the time someone will be wearing something sick and when u ask where they got it they say a charity shop. Its not for the motherless etc etc. I f you are confident and have style and a washing machine for the person who said it isn't safe lol then why not? over here clothes that cost the same as second hand are seen as uncool as they are usually from primark or a tacky indian market stool which is a tacky arse clothing empire and id go second hand over that any day. admittedly it used to be uncool but since the economy around the world is going to S*** ppl have no money! people still wanna go shopping and charities need to give money to the poor its a win win situation.

I customise my clothes with studs etc and sew african prints in the lining etc etc so in the end I feel like I have something new. maybe try something like that?
