Thrift Stores in Aberdeen, Scotland

“Great charity shop. There are always great staff who are happy to help you. They have a great selections of clothes (even for men and kids). Much better than any charity shop on Union Street in my view”

“The volunteers who run the place are super friendly. The offers are always renewed, in perfect condition! The prices are unbeatable.Their own products are of good quality.It is small, but cozy”

“I simply cannot recommend this shop enough. I made two trips to it, and was fortunate enough to find the very things I was looking for on both occasions (the Harry Potter series plus a few more books) - everything being very generously priced. If you're in Aberdeen, you should definitely give it a visit as it is quite close to the city center which you will probably visit anyway. In summary, if fate is kind, you might actually find the objects of your interest; otherwise, prepare to be pleasantly surprised, because you will probably not come out of the shop empty handed.P.S. The old lady is very warm and welcoming as well.”

“I have enjoyed my recent visits to the shop. It’s always busy and the staff creates a friendly atmosphere. The merchandise is nicely displayed and good quality. I have left with great items each time and I look forward to my next visit. I would recommend checking it out.”

“An experience. Price GOAT for sure - Sue Ryder is a difficult one but gotta give that 5Pros- staff patter is incomparable. I reckon I'd come in just for the chat even if I didn't find anything- Price unbeatable. All a pound regardless. You can't lose even if you don't keep what you buy.- easy to get around and find stuffCons- can't lie sometimes a bit musty? The actual shopping experience is sometimes a bit get in and get out but not like dirty musty, just that kinda vibe- sparse gear lads, that said - it's all a quid. Why wouldn't you nip in?I'd go regardless”

“Bought some furniture; sofa and chair and a table. Great quality like new, and at probably 10% of new price. £25 delivery price was very reasonable. Informed of delivery next day after purchase, and delivered a couple of days later at the time promised. The guys new what they were doing, no problems with installing the furniture, took no time at all hardly. Very pleased all round.”

“Pros- mens and womens sections easy to maneuver- usually something either designer or funky- variable but generally decent prices- staff mega friendly- the real steals are actually the bits n bobs, some pretty sick tech and camera dealsCons- CASH ONLY ??? The pain in my heart when I need to take out a tenner before I nip in claps my cheeks with maximum efficiency- variable pricing, sometimes some pretty clapped gear is priced way up there”

“here always something for everyone they are amazing and good jobthere is only one problem, when they give out Christmas parcels, I have the impression that the origin is important because every year the parcels for children are getting worse compared to parcels for children from Scotland, there should be no segregation, it's sad”

“Gear and staff best in Aberdeen hands down, not sure where the low reviews come from tbh.Pros- excellent floor layout split into designer items, mens, women's, fitness and bits n bobs- great social media platform on Instagram- always some really cool stuff for sale to wear and/or resell- the shoes here are actually pretty sick, not something I can say for many places!- the staff are sick in comparison to some reviews, chat is ace, they take an interest into what you want from your shop and who you are, understandably a stressful environment for them but I've always had myself prioritised when I make an effort to say helloCons- purely from a resale and bargain perspective - pricey. PDSA are one of the first charity shops in Aberdeen to gear towards a modern younger audience and I appreciate that. Business wise I think PDSA are very forward thinking and smart in branding”

“It's very good, sometimes the space is too small if there are a lot of people. It could be with a better disposition, to reduce the mess.Interesting variety”

“Stellas voice is a charity shop that sells second-hand clothes, books, toys and other items to support orphans and vulnerable children in Moldova. I visited the shop recently and I was impressed by the variety and quality of the products, as well as the friendly and helpful staff. The shop is clean, well-organized and has a cozy atmosphere. I bought a lovely sweater and a book for a very reasonable price, and I felt good knowing that my money was going to a worthy cause. I highly recommend Stellas voice to anyone who loves shopping and helping others.”

“Decent gaff bossPros- super easy maneuverability in both mens and womens- really cool bits n bobs section- always decent pricingCons- huge variability in material, sometimes super cool super cheap, sometimes designer, sometimes your dad's party shirt, nothing to do with establishment obvs but that's my note”

“One of my favorite charities! Really quality products, both donations and our own. The cause is my favorite and the attention is exquisite!It's worth every visit!”

“Brilliant team, great selection, lovely shop if I could rate them higher I would ?If you are looking for a particular book, genre, theme, authour, topic... Just drop them a message or ask in person. They are sure to find something to take home ?”

“Pros - Went here on a good sale day, pleasantly surprised by the prices (£3 per item). Mostly modern clothing. Nicely organized by color and size. Generally affordable prices (£6-25 per item) but not "wowed" by them.Cons - staff were not friendly, no one smiled. Got the impression customer service was annoying to the employees and they couldn't be bothered.”

“Thank you for a great service from start to finish. We ordered a few items and had them delivered the next day. The items got delivered on time and the delivery people put items in place for us. It's nice to see a good service and happy workers.”
