All Saints Anglican Church Op Shop

“I’m very grateful to the vicar for running this opportunity shop I have been coming to since I was 10. It is truly a great opshop. But I I am leaving 4 stars because a few times now I have felt a bit shamed for being poor by volunteers here, just lately. If I ask the price of something, and then it is out of my price range and I say “sorry but I’ll have to leave it”, “ok, that’s fine” would be the answer I would usually get, but lately, with a couple of different volunteers it has been more like “Well, that is a very good price for this item, I am surprised you can’t afford that, it’s a lovely item. We have great prices”. I want to be clear I am not bartering in these moments, never would, just clarifying a price on an untagged item and if I can’t afford it or justify the price, I have to say I’ll leave it behind. I am wondering if the team could have a group discussion please about how to approach these discussions more empathetically, with the fact in mind that $5 or $10 is not a lot of money to some, but a lot to others.”

“Fill a bag for $2 That’s a good buy”

“Friendly volunteers. Real op shop prices for the benefits of the needy, unlike Salvos who thinks they're a fully profitable boutique store. Found a suit jacket in great condition for just $8”

“They price things appropriately for an op shop, unlike some of the other op shops around town who have become too pricey.”

“A very good op shop. Well priced. Majority of the staff and volunteers are nice.”
