Selling vintage in L.A.

topic posted Wed, December 20, 2006 - 12:59 PM by  Margaret
Anyone have suggestions on where to sell vintage clothing in Los Angeles? I have women's cowboy boots and clothing in larger sizes (14-16), mostly 40s, 50s and a little repro-vintage. Wasteland took some pieces, but their taste is very specific and they turned down a lot of stuff that surprised me. Can you think of other places I might try? (already know about Buffalo Exchange & Crossroads, but would bet they pay next to nothing)

          There's also American Vintage- there's one on Melrose (by Wasteland) and one on Hollywood between Holly/Highland and Holly/Vine, on the north side of the street.
