thrift store owner
Used goods merchant
A thrift store owner operates a shop selling secondhand goods—clothing, furniture, housewares—at low prices.
Some run charitable operations where proceeds support causes; others buy donated or estate items for resale profit.
The role involves sourcing inventory, pricing items without fixed wholesale costs, and cultivating regulars who hunt for bargains or vintage finds.
