As a German I always thought there is no way to find used clothes/second hand clothes and then I found Depop and Kleiderkreisel and saw the city next to me has a few vintage stores maybe I have a lock in them ☺️

[@joyfullysimple]

You really should! And if it’s a city there are probably other thrift stores, too! I have never bought something on Depop but I love Kleiderkreisel and also ubup.com for online thrifting 😊

[@Ichijoe2112]

Problem with theses Shops, and by that proxy on-line dealers as well. Is that of finding anything that actually fits. That is unless your both tiny, and thin as a rail, of which I'm neither.

[@theoddestmelon5664]

I might move to Germany soon and I was worried there wouldn’t be many thrift stores. Thanks for making this video!

[@joyfullysimple]

You are welcome! Depending on where you lived before, our stores might be smaller but you can still find many gems! Are you moving to a bigger city?

[@sunnymorgan9291]

Same! I love to resale and also find a good deal for me and my family.

[@WouldntULikeToKnow.]

My husband and I are moving to Germany in a few weeks. Your videos are a great find!

[@joyfullysimple]

I am so glad to heat that! I hope you‘ll be finding lots of great thrift stores here 😊

[@Abigailjohnsonmusic]

Very informative! Thank you for this detailed info

[@joyfullysimple]

You‘re welcome! 😊

[@maggiecooper9845]

I plan on going to Germany next November and I want to find thrift stores in or around Mannheim but we may be making a trip to Holland as also.

[@kayla4551]

Tank you, that was very helpful

[@joyfullysimple]

I‘m glad to hear that!

[@lyricswritinggirl]

I'm from Germany and now get into thrifting and I have a really small old bag and nothing really fits in there. what could I make out of that? or even: how could I make a wash bag out of it, that would be the best

[@joyfullysimple]

Hey ☺️ Ist das eine Tasche aus Stoff? Eventuell könntest du die ja vergrößern, wenn du noch Stoff zu Hause hast oder ein Kleidungsstück, das du nicht mehr trägst bzw das kaputt ist. Oder meintest du etwas anderes? 😅 Für einen Wäschebeutel müsstest du ja einen Tunnelzug nähen. Da findest du sicher ganz viele Tutorials hier auf KZbin, die das sicher besser erklären als ich das je könnte ☺️ Ist aber echt einfach, wenn du Basic Sachen Nähen kannst.

[@lyricswritinggirl]

@@joyfullysimple hey, vielen Dank! sie ist leider aus Kunstleder, aber meine Schwester kann sehr gut nähen, vielleicht Frage ich sie mal, danke!😊

[@joyfullysimple]

Kunstleder habe ich leider noch nie genäht - davor habe ich zu viel Respekt 😅 Viel Erfolg mit dem Upcyceln! 🙏🏻

Will Hopefully be in munich by April 2022. This will guide me a lot. Thank u.

[@joyfullysimple]

You’re welcome and wishing you a good time in Germany!

[@anxtoniq6678]

i live in Germany for 5 years never found good stores :(

[@joyfullysimple]

Oh really? That‘s such a bummer! Do you live in a bigger town or city?

[@anxtoniq6678]

@@joyfullysimple I live in Munich I often order from online stores since there aren't any good thrift stores

[@joyfullysimple]

Have you ever been to a „Sozialkaufhaus“? I find really amazing vintage there! Humana stores are also pretty nice 😊

[@anxtoniq6678]

@@joyfullysimple Yes I was there twice but they weren't good I live near one and im gonna try a Humana store 😄

[@joyfullysimple]

You Should! And sometimes it is just trying out a bunch of different stores here or trying the same one a few times. Sometimes I go to a store and I will find nothing and the next time I walk out with a whole bag full of stuff 😂 Good luck! ❤️

[@CopiousAmountsOfBeans]

yeah haha I just went to a Kilo sale thing and I got a denim jacket, it was i think 29 or 39 i cant remember, I dont think i like them that much

[@kaitlynsisneros6650]

Where are the best places in Nordrhein-Westfalen?

[@joyfullysimple]

I am not sure because I haven’t ever really thrifted there, sorry ☹️ But if you follow these tips, you should be able to find some great stores! ❤️

[@kaitlynsisneros6650]

@@joyfullysimple Oh no Problem, will do. Thank you anyways ☺️

[@joyfullysimple]

If you find Any good one’s, let me know 😊 In case I ever go there.

[@til230]

[@TwiceLivingPreloved]

Hi can you recommend a used clothes supplier from Germany, to export in Australia?

[@joyfullysimple]

Sorry, I wouldn’t know. I am not familiar with wholesale at all. Good luck!

[@janeandri6694]

I want to find second hand item warehouses when you can search items from bins etc and buy in a good price but can't find anywhere in germany. What do I do wrong?

[@motivationmusic_]

which site in germany?

[@Ichijoe2112]

Flea what now? There hasn't been any Fleamarkets here in Frankfurt/Main for well over a year solid now, and nobody knows if they will ever come back. Thanks China! Note I'm not talking about the lame Church bake sale Fleamarkets, but the huge weekly Fleamarket that was hosted by the city of Frankfurt itself.

[@joyfullysimple]

It’s a bummer. But it depends on the city.
