Sally's Retro reviews
31 I found this cute little store on the way to eat ice cream. There is a wide variety of vintage clothes, accessories and more.
The beautifully dressed ladies and clerks in the store are all very kind and friendly, and will explain to first-time customers which items are second-hand and which are new in stock.
The prices of the products are very reasonable, you can buy with confidence.
Hope to come again!
This is the awesomest vintage shop, and the staff are so lovely! Such great pieces for everyone and great accessories too. Love!
The best shop on Smith street! Always my go to when I need a groovy accessory or an element to lift my outfit. The staff was super helpful!
Such a cool place, there's always new and interesting stuff there. You can tell that it is chosen with a careful eye, and yet the prices are very affordable
What I had thought to be a gem of a store has turned out to be a massive rip off. I've visited the store multiple times but had my doubts. Looked up the skirt and dress I purchased from here and they're both on shein. What is horrible is that these products are marked at a much higher price. If you want shein quality clothes order them online.it'll be way cheaper but if you don't want to support slave labour then stay away from this place. Really sad because the staff and vibes were great.
A really awful business. The owner seriously underpays her young staff (not even reaching minimum wage), and as they are employed illegally they have no rights to challenge this. They are treated horribly, hence the constant turn around of staff. Much of the stock is cheap online clothing made by literal slave labour and marked up to double the price. All of these things are easily researched and proved. Disgraceful practises that shouldn't be happening anywhere.
Friendly staff amazing and eclectic range of vintage and new fashion, hats and handbags. I will be back!
If I could rate it 0, I would. Over 2/3 of the store is just re-sold SHEIN and AliExpress items with the tags cut off. You have to search far and wide to find anything genuinely vintage. They also treat their employees very poorly.
They sell stuff from shein with nerve to call it retro and then won’t offer refunds cause the price tag was taken off staff are nice tho ️
Really nice collection of clothings and especially hand bags and accessories, the place itself has a groovy vibe.
Working in retail in the past myself I’m aware of the interaction level between customer and sales assistance although every time I come here I’m asked 200 times if I need help and without a doubt if I’m looking at a rack a sales assistant will be filling or fixing it up. The place itself is small so I’ve left every time with nothing because sometimes it feels so awkward.
I get you’re just doing your job trust me I’ve been forced to overly greet customers in my retail experience but cool it just like -40% because it’s half the reason I don’t buy anything.
This place is such a rip off!
Everything they sell here they buy off shein and sell it for 4x the price. Save your money!
So much for “vintage”
Just embarrassing.
I am so heartbroken and disappointed to have found every single piece I got at the shop on SHEIN and at Sally’s store I paid double the price for these shein items and it’s not even the price that really disappoints me, it’s the fact that I thought I was getting unique second hand items while in reality I shopped at shein … however the girls at the store were super nice and I had a really good in store experience.
Very disappointed. A worker with dark blonde hair continuously insinuated that I was stealing whilst in the store. She proceeded to wait outside the change room I was in for the entire time I was using it and was shocked when I did end up purchasing something. Would not recommend.
Best store on Smith Street! I love shopping here - the overall experience in store, along with the staff, is lovely! They’re super helpful, and with their extensive size range on their new wholesale products, I feel like I can finally shop somewhere with my size! The vintage pieces are also great, some hidden gems! The weekend staff are exceptional and kudos to the owner for curating such an awesome collection of new/vintage items! Great stuff!
I love this vibe of this store but I am deeply disappointed of the shien/aliexpress items being sold at this store, which contribute to fast fashion as well as being sold for 20x times its price, as this hasn't changed and owners are aware. I nearly purchased a bag for $40 which ended up being $5 on shein, shocking. Store crew was lovely and love the store design but the overpricing is not it.
The best vintage store I’ve been to so far. The clothes they have fit many aesthetics and the staff are really friendly and nice. There’s just too many beautiful pieces to choose from!
This is my favourite vintage shop on Smith Street. The staff just knew how to help, she was almost a mind reader. Super helpful and accommodating and a great selection of vintage wares. I'll be going back!
Super helpful staff and a great vibe in store. Nice mix of vintage and new items which is great to mix it up.
This is my favourite place to shop! It has been for years. I buy vintage and new items that have been curated for me. Whenever I have an event on, this is the place for me to get amazing things. I don’t have the time or energy to shop on line and so love this shop. I mix and match all of it! I recently went to an event at the Opera House completely styled by Sally’s staff and felt fantastic! Thank goodness for this shop. I find the prices so accessible in comparison to everyone else. Thank you Sally’s!
This is my favourite shop on Smith Street!
Great selection of vintage clothes, and wonderful service!
