2nd STREET Lower East Side is a men's and women's second-hand clothing and accessories store that buys and sells gently used items every day. It offers a great selection of high-quality designer brands, unique vintage items, and trendy pre-owned clothing, shoes, and accessories. Merchandise is always fresh, with regular imports from Japan in addition to local buying. The store is noted for its range of designers and prices, with finds like brand-new jeans and cashmere sweaters at low prices. Shopping is generally considered a better experience than selling, as selling basic clothing pieces may not yield much. The store provides fast and thoughtful service, with staff noted for their attention to detail and helpfulness, including security who assist customers. It is seen as a little hidden gem for luxury vintage clothes. Potential buyers should note that buying closes one hour before the posted closing time, and some payment methods may be limited. New subscribers receive a discount for buying and a mark-up for selling.
