Second-hand clothing in Livingston typically sells for £4 to £600 (about $5 to $810). Whether a piece is currently in fashion swings the figure more than quality does, which is why last season’s high-street stock falls away so fast. Genuine vintage escapes that entirely and is priced on rarity and condition instead.
