From what I've noticed...

Vintage clothing is either really fair in price, or as expensive as some designer brands that are out now!

Yes, I agree that preserved 50s tulle prom dresses can be pricey for a good reason, but for a cotton shirt at $34? If the brand isn't too well known, why would it be so high?

I have some examples of cheap and pricey, and would like some explanations if some people have some!

Here are some cheap items I have found:



From my shop, vintage sequin prom dress (80s) $13
