You never quite know what you’ll find. And isn’t that half the fun? The other half is finding your finds at far below retail. Designer labels, vintage styles, art, furniture, purses. You name it, you’ll find it at one of these fabulous stops.

Buffalo Exchange offers new and recycled fashions at various progressive hoods in and around OC, such as 2nd St. in Long Beach, The Lab in Costa Mesa and at the Fullerton Promenade. You can bring in your “former favorites” for trade or cash on the spot. So technically it’s not a consignment store, as it’s quicker cash than that. Their inventory includes designer labels, vintage, jeans, leather, current basics and one-of-a-kind items. You’ll also find brand new merchandise and accessories.
