Buffalo Exchange - Shop CA (Near Ventura)

5 /5 Michael Guynn: Whenever somebody compliments my shirt and asks where I got it, the answer is almost always Buffalo Exchange. As a disclaimer, I have only ever shopped here, not traded clothes in. But as a buyer this place rules. Ive never seen so many interesting and fun clothing in one store. Especially patterned button-up shirts: they have some crazy cool and loud ones. Pretty much everything (except maybe the shoes) tend to be in great condition, and the prices are reasonable. Not cheap, but reasonable. Its pretty popular though, so be prepared to navigate a crowd and try to squeeze through tight openings and walkways.

4 /5 Michelle Gurrola: my go-2 for any event or just because is buffalo. i love buying - and selling here. after almost 10 years of selling, i feel like ive developed a good prediction of whatll sell, and ive sold almost everything i take in the last year. you can call the store to specifically ask what they are looking for. then, weed out any pieces from your sell pile that have stains, holes, missing buttons, looks outdated, soles are dirty/too used or is fast-fashion. think almost new quality, good condition & branded to have a shot. theyll also take unique and vintage clothes if the quality is pristine. contrary to the reviews, ive never sold anything fast-fashion from here. however, lately nothing at the store has caught my eye. ive noted more wholesale from boutiques. i used to love finding a one of a kind patchwork dress, vintage purses and boots, but lately, everything looks the same. the buyers arent as friendly. ive always stayed up front while they are buying to see what they have an eye for. they dont look you in the eye, have side conversations with co-workers, or worse, ask you everytime if youve sold there even if you have stopped by over 10 times with the same seller. it doesnt hurt to acknowledge they recognize you if they dont know your name. it feels transactional where it used to feel more personal.
