Is The Future Of Retail Going To Be Secondhand? Jun 08, 2020

What's causing this shift in mindset and shopping habits? If the future is thrift, how will the integrity of thrift and resale be maintained? How will we adapt as this becomes the new normal way of shopping? And thrifters, how do you really feel about thrifting becoming more mainstream?
