City Mission Op Shops Moonah

“Today I visited what used to be my fave northern suburbs op shop within 1 month prices have gone through the roof for fabric. I won't be coming back again. Shame”

“Great op shop best in northern suburbs”

“Excellent op-shop with a vintage section that you’ll always find something unique in. Really good book section too.”

“Alright, here it comes. This review has been a long time coming and the excellence of mission op shops have provided the perfect opportunity to do so. This organisation is the gold standard. I have lived and moved all over Australia never stopping in a town for more than 7 years and I can say without a doubt, after 40 odd years, that the state of charity shops in Australia is at an all time low. And it would be almost defunct if it wasn't for some of the off brand church/animal welfare spots dotted across the land. Seriously, what happened Vinnie's, Salvos and Lifeline? Where is the charity? High prices and stock that is distributed via warehouses into the foulness of 'Charity Beautique'... Absolutely disgraceful. Every item is pricechecked online and the magic that once was opshops in this country stripped bare. And then there are places like City Mission. Where you can ALWAYS find something that makes life easier on a budget... And not only that occasionally find something genuinely special, because it hasn't been gathered in warehouses and strained through a collander to maximise profit... And it is still run by a small, generous organisation that redistributes wealth into community in which it operates. Whoever the district manager is in Hobart and the surrounding suburbs deserves to be credited with serious respect. Your stores are well organised, priced, lit and have friendly staff who obviously love volunteering because of the atmosphere you have created. If I had one wish it would be that jams and chutneys return to the counters of these places. Other than that; 5 stars.”

“My fave Hobart op shop. Massive, which means there is something for everyone. I love that womens clothing is sorted by size, otherwise you would be there all day. The clothing pricing system is also simplified and you can get a bargain. The vintage section is a hidden gem.”
