Save the Children Op Shop - Dandenong

Staff were lovely today 18/11/23. My daughter got a couple of small dolls which I caught her playing with when she got home. They have some premium items in store which is good to see and I think people forget that the money is going to charity and the staff are volunteers. but in saying that, having the prices higher than Ebay - which is considered the premium price platform and probably where they benchmark price of new items received is, to say the least, a little perplexing.

I’m a tight-arse when it comes to clothes shopping - everything but good suits. Today I scored 3 well fitting shirts, two pairs of pants, black dress shoes, two ties, and 6 new pairs of socks - all up just $41

Wonderful friendly service too.

Best thing is you’re supporting the less well off in our community through their charitable works.

I love this place ...always have great stock at reasonable prices. Every time I go there I find something great

Good opp shop good prices very friendly staff

Great staff very friendly

Best place to grab a bargain or two.

The store is gud but the lady who looks Chinese Iam sorry for such behaviour u have. if u mind a thing first aware the customer without being rude then.

its ok can be a litre more cheaper so the items actually do sell.. walked out with 2 items only priced between 10-20. i could have got more unfortunately prices didn't permit it.

$20 PlayStation games that go for $5 on eBay..
I feel like this op shop has potential but the prices need to come waay down, your a charity not a for profit business.

Very expensive for an op shop!

As a single mum, I used to love visiting this op shop regularly. It was affordable a few years ago. These days, everything is heavily overpriced. While whoever runs this google business will likely respond stating that the prices are, “reasonable and donations go towards assisting children in Australia and beyond”, I can assure you, the prices are anything but reasonable.

Amidst a cost of living crisis, mortgage paralysis and a housing crisis right here in our LOCAL community, people are struggling to make ends meet and rely on op shops to purchase much-needed clothing and home necessities. There are everyday people right here on our front doorstep, who are finding themselves financially crippled. There are also those who are making an effort to reduce landfill and recycle clothing, or simply looking for a bargain.

In October I saw two identical pairs of leggings, both brand new, both size xs. One was priced $15, the other $45. They were exactly the same, with a $30 price difference.

The prices at this op shop are ludicrous. There are far more affordable options nearby, which I would encourage others to explore.

"Our Op Shops aim to sell goods at reasonable prices"
Well then your op shops have terrible aim.
Prices aren't reasonable at all. It's like they look everything up on ebay, go with the highest asking price and then slap another 20% on top.
I walked out with nothing (as did several other shoppers) and am not planning a return visit.
This place makes Savers look cheap.

Overpriced. Designer rack with plenty of clothing that is most definitely NOT designer!!
