On Manhattan's Vintage Stores Stay Eating It
True that. Florida is great because all the snow birds keep dying off and their heirs end up donating everything to the salvation army.
Years ago, there was a vintage store in the west village that I frequented. One sunday I was in Domseys checking out the $1 shirts. Next thing I look around and the owner of the vintage store was there, laden down with shirts. Next time I went into his store he was selling them for $30 each.
There's money to be made if you don't go nuts.

On Manhattan's Vintage Stores Stay Eating It
This is so true. I've been buying in thrift stores for years and have practically been priced out of the New York market. I blame Rachel Zoe and Chloe Sevigny!
When I visit the inlaws in Michigan and Florida I go nuts rummaging for stuff. Example: bought a vintage cardigan for $30 bucks at a flea market in Florida (which I actually thought was a tad overpriced). Saw the exact same on in a vintage store on 23rd Street for $130.
I say bring back Domseys.

I was at the tail end of 36 (38 now). And we're planning another. And yes, we're knackered. I did have a miscarraige recently and the dr told me that it was because I'm old. So, there's some truth in it, but it's not impossible.
