We all love a good op-shop.

Whether we’re looking for quality clothes at affordable prices, nic-nacs and furniture, a bit of nostalgia, or just something for a fancy-dress party, you can count on op-shops to come up with the goods. As they say, one person’s trash is another’s treasure. Some of our grooviest clothes and unique furniture has been sourced from op-shops. And we’ve visited them all. If you’re looking for the best of the best, check out one of our Top 3 Best Op Shops on the Gold Coast.
