I had a conversation with a lady working in a charity shop a few weeks ago, and commented on how different charity shops are these days. They used to be very basic, and as they should be, very cheap, whereas now the interiors of many of them are more upmarket than half of the retail shops surrounding them, they only sell immaculate clothes, and half of it is only 25% - 50% cheaper than full retail price brand new.

She simply said; "Well, it's big business these days, isn't it?"

That says it all in my opinion.
