In Sibiu, second-hand stores attract a mix of customers, including pensioners and young people, seeking significant discounts. Despite a steady flow of shoppers, sellers report challenging sales due to rising prices and competition. Customers often wait for sale days, where items can drop to as low as 2 lei. The shopping experience varies by store, with prices decreasing as new stock arrives. While many shoppers are women, men tend to browse less. The appeal of second-hand shopping lies in affordability and unique finds, contrasting with traditional retail options. Overall, the year remains tough for sellers, but discounts continue to draw in buyers.
