Just to clarify before you read: the staff, the layout and everything else about the shop is great. If you want to support the charity, then don't let this review put you off... They still do some great work across the world!
BUT this place completely misses the point of charity shops in my opinion. They're not supposed to just be places for the charities to raise money, they're also places where people who can't afford brand new goods can shop for things like furniture/clothes/book.

There really are only a couple of items, if any, which are priced like second hand goods, let alone like charity shop goods.
Honestly, if you're going to shop here then you may as well leave it. Go and buy yourself something brand new instead. It'll cost almost the same!
The shop itself is lovely, but you'll be hard pressed to find anything at 'charity shop prices'.
