Buffalo Exchange Payment Methods

The vintage store Buffalo Exchange sells lots of fashionable retro clothing. It’s popular with musicians and artists because you can buy clothing there that other stores no longer sell. Anyway, here are the payment methods that Buffalo Exchange accepts.

This vintage store doesn’t have an online store and the merchandise selection at every store is different and depends on what other customers sold to the store. That means Buffalo Exchange doesn’t accept any payments online, although you can use cash, credit cards, and mobile wallets like Apple Pay and Google Pay to shop at its retail stores.

One noteworthy thing about Buffalo Exchange is that you can sell clothing by mailing it to the retailer and you can select PayPal as your payout method, so technically it does support PayPal but only when you’re selling clothing to the store. You can also sell your clothing to this vintage store for cash or trade-in credit and you’re likely to get a better deal if you select trade-in credit. This is also true at other stores, such as GameStop, that buy used merchandise from their customers.

Like many other thrift shops and vintage stores, Buffalo Exchange doesn’t support any BNPL apps. And again, it doesn’t have an online store either. It doesn’t sell any groceries or food products as far as I know and it doesn’t accept EBT either. It does sell gift cards that you can use to shop at its stores, though.

More Things to Know About Buffalo Exchange

This vintage store doesn’t just sell used clothing, it also buys used clothing so you can raise money by selling clothing you no longer need to the store. Another noteworthy thing about Buffalo Exchange is that the artists and musicians who shop there often leave fliers for local events and shows at the store. Buffalo Exchange isn’t a venue itself but it’s a good place to learn about local venues if you’re visiting a new town.

Additionally, this is also an environmentally friendly store because its business model is based on reusing new clothing instead of throwing it away. Fast-fashion clothing manufacturers and the stores that sell their clothing are often criticized by activists who feel that they’re wasting resources. This business model also makes Buffalo Exchange popular with younger shoppers and environmentally conscious shoppers of all ages.
