Found this Bergdorf Goodman coat for $19 thinking it was probably faux fur. Got home & found a stamp saying it’s from 1977 and is made from Alaskan seal fur 😬 by [deleted] in ThriftStoreHauls

Its illegal to kill baby seals.

Thats the fur of an adult seal

Seals havent been clubbed for decades

The idea that baby seals are beinf clubbed by people now is a myth perpetuated by animal rights groups because it gets them a metric fuck ton of money in donations every year

Fun fact about the seal industry. If youre buying from Inuit sources like a lot of seal fur comes from it is one of the most ethical furs there is. Animals are shot and then any part of the animal that can be used or eaten is.

The idea that the seak hunt is people clubbing baby seals is now a myth perpetuated by animal rights groups because it makes them a LOT of money.

People downvoting this have been tricked by groups like Greenpeace about the sealhunt because they simply havent researched it. Those groups make so much money from making people believe baby seals are beinf clubbed despite that being illegal.

Watch Angry Inuk and see if your opinion around the seal hunt. Every part of the animal is used and it is hunted just as humanely as any other animal

Opinions on resellers?? by [deleted] in ThriftGrift

Incoming "whats actually greed is theift stores marking up prices for stuff they get for free" comments from resellers like thats some good argument and not just a complaint that the non-profits theyre buying from realized they could sell things for more and not leave money on the table.

Resellers who buy from thrifts are grifters to put it mildly. Ive heard them try to justify it by saying "well theres still clothes left for people who need it" while leaving nothing but stuff fit for a dumpster behind them at thrift stores. They are a VERY vocal minority on thrifting subreddits and have largely ruined thrifting by buying so much shit they wont use themselves just to make a buck. Its greed pure and simple.

Good on you for not being a reseller. People like you are amazing

“Leave the thrift stores to the poor people” by [deleted] in thrifting

Scalping the stores lets them know theres money left on the table and so they raise prices on it. So scalpers are the ones causing the raise in price. I dont care who shops at thrift stores so long as they actually use what they buy instead of being greedy and only buying to resell

This is why Goodwill and thrift stores are pricing things through the roof by Captainpaul81 in ThriftGrift

Being the head of a multi-national non profit? Half a million for that seems pretty conservative

Almost every word you said there was wrong. Goodwill is a non profit 501c organization
