DISCLAIMER: Those who were kind enough to speak with me about this issue gave me their insights about what goes on behind the scenes in their own stores and personal experience. Any other claims and statements I make come from my own research and opinions and don't necessarily reflect those of the people I interviewed.

I hope you enjoy! Thrifting and vintage are both very close to my heart and I love that it's becoming more available to more people. Of course, there are growing pains and I definitely understand the frustration about this messy industry. I hope this video was helpful and maybe you learned something, but I also want to hear from you! Please let me know your thoughts, especially if you do or have ever worked in a thrift store. Gentrification is a very big subject, so I'm always open to learning more about where it's effects and causes.
