  • Fair, transparent pricing noted specifically for higher-value items
  • Staff will advise customers on what items can and cannot be sold

Worth knowing

  • A meaningful share of reviews sit at 3 stars, so experiences vary somewhat by branch and staff
  • Large chain store, so expect it to feel less curated than the Haji Lane vintage shops

How we score

Every number on this page comes from public Google data as of the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is the store’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated them, ranked against other Singapore thrift and secondhand stores. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 5.0 from around 500 reviews is measured against a 4.6 from over 1,700. Recency reflects how recently customers are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.

How much do secondhand goods cost in Singapore? (2026)

Pricing depends entirely on what you’re buying, from budget-friendly clothing swaps to luxury bags and watches, and none of the stores above publish fixed rates we can independently verify for this page, so we are not listing a price table here. Compare in-store, since pricing on secondhand and vintage goods varies item to item.

Thrift and secondhand shopping across Singapore

These stores are spread across Singapore, including Toa Payoh, the Haji Lane and Kampong Glam vintage district, Jalan Besar and Orchard Road. Searching for thrift stores near me? Haji Lane alone hosts most of the names on this page, making it the densest single stretch for vintage and secondhand browsing.

What to ask before you shop secondhand

  • Is authenticity verified for luxury items, and is there a certificate or guarantee?
  • For a swap model, how are points calculated and do they expire?
  • Is the item final sale, or is there a return or exchange window?
  • Does the store accept items to sell or trade, and what condition do they require?
  • Are fitting rooms available to try on clothing before buying?
  • What payment methods does the store accept?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these stores?

We started from thrift and secondhand stores in Singapore with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency, and recency. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date, August 2026 on this page. We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

What is Haji Lane known for when it comes to thrifting?

Haji Lane is Singapore’s main vintage and streetwear thrifting district, home to THE CARTEL’S CURATED STORE, Vintagewknd and several other independent vintage shops within a short walk of each other.

How does a clothes-swap store work?

At The Fashion Pulpit, you bring in used clothing and receive points based on the item’s brand and condition, which you can then use to take home other pieces from the store’s curated stock.

The bottom line

Cash Converters is the safe default with the widest range and the deepest review history in Singapore, while the Haji Lane shops are worth the trip for genuinely curated vintage finds. Bring cash or check payment options, since not every store operates the same way.
