You never know what you might find at your local thrift shop.
It may come as a surprise, but thrift stores throughout Greater Victoria are conservatively losing tens of thousands of dollars every month by selling valuable items far below their true market value. Every day, pieces such as fine jewelry, silverware, art, and collectibles are priced and sold for only a fraction of what they could command in the open market.
Having grown up in this community, we’ve witnessed firsthand the remarkable discoveries made by regular resellers who have turned these overlooked treasures into full-time careers. While online platforms like eBay can offer some pricing insight, they’re often unreliable and time-consuming for busy charitable organizations to navigate.
That’s where we come in.
We specialize in providing a unique and personalized, on-site valuation service for charitable organizations and thrift stores, helping identify and properly assess higher-value items before they’re sold. Our goal is to ensure that every donation receives the recognition—and return—it truly deserves.
