Vinnies

“I’d read some of the older Google reviews before visiting and, to be honest, they almost put me off going. In the end I decided to make my own judgement, and I’m really glad I did. The store was clean, well organised and easy to browse, with plenty of stock. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the whole place had a positive atmosphere. If the previous reviews reflected how things used to be, it certainly doesn’t seem that way now. Credit to the management and volunteers for turning it around!”

“This place is amazing !! Staff are friendly , prices are good . They have budget range and boutique range to suit everyone’s budget. Love the fact you’re starting to put items in sizes. I have not been in this store for 6 months ago and swore I would never go back after my last experience-I don’t know what’s changed but good on you Vinnies Richlands you are now one of my favourites .”

“Great new space for Vinnies since moving from Sumner Park. Very spacious clean and bright store. Some pricing was rather excessive eg Ladies simple blouse $80. Other pieces were worth the marked price. I have visited the times now. Still maintaining a spacious store. They seem to be concentrating on better quality products. I wanted a one off wide mouth wine glass for a specific project but they only display and sell sets. IfI want a set Kmart or Big W have better options at the same price. Sometimes Op shops are also for the odds and ends you need. This is a good shop. ... .. however..How many more are going this way... leaving opportunity out of the Opportunity Shop. They had some special that were different this time. No doubt they will keep including some seasonal specials as time goes on. Vinnies at Sumner Park will continue to be a collection and sorting centre but will no longer have a retail outlet. This store at Richlands is the replacement. Plenty of free parking out front. Next door to a new Lifeline Shop and across from Reddy Fuel. Located off the road just down from the Forest Lake roundabout. As with most charity shops... the place gets busy then the service is very slow at the checkout . This can be very difficult for those who just drop in and have other appointments. Staff are happily taking time that perhaps others don't have. Notable as Op Shop prices are no longer necessarily a bargain and expect certain standards from customers.”

“Frequent Vinnie’s Shopper across QLD! Vinnies Richlands is hands down one of the best-managed stores in the Brisbane area. The entire team should be incredibly proud of themselves for setting such a high standard across the board. From the moment you walk in, it’s clear that suburb management and presentation are top priorities. The store is consistently clean, bright, and well-merchandised, making it a pleasure to browse through their high-quality stock. What really sets this location apart, however, is the excellent customer service. The staff are exceptionally friendly, helpful, and welcoming. It’s rare to find a team so dedicated to maintaining such a professional yet warm atmosphere. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a top-tier shopping experience! Well done.”

“Very clean and large store. Well lit and organised. Lots of parking available. Most clothes aren't sorted by size, however jeans are. Prices are higher than they should be, all shirts being at least $12 unless Kmart / Shein. The bras are abnormally expensive ($10 - $40). They also sell underwear (even if it's brand new, it's not in any packaging), which doesn't seem hygienic.”
