The Oddity Second Hand shop is a second-hand store at 185 Main Rd, Waikouaiti, in the Dunedin area, with a Google rating of 4.3.
A good second-hand store is part treasure hunt and part community, with stock that changes often and items priced fairly for their condition. Look closely at what you buy, since second-hand goods are usually sold as seen, so check for damage, working parts and missing pieces, and test electrical items if you can. Furniture, crockery and clothing are often good value, while anything with a safety role, such as helmets or car seats, is best bought new. Ask about returns, since some shops do not offer them. Regulars visit often, since new stock arrives all the time, ask staff to keep an eye out for what they want, and bring cash and a tape measure for furniture. Selling or donating your own unwanted items is also part of how these shops work, so ask about what they accept.
For people in Waikouaiti and north of Dunedin, The Oddity Second Hand shop on Main Road is a place to browse for a bargain.
