Second Hand & Vintage

Unique items at rock-bottom prices

Word to the wise: Many second-hand stores have 30 percent off sales one day every week, so worth checking which day before you go.
Berlin has loads of second-hand stores, if you don't mind rummaging to find what you're after.

STIEFELKOMBINAT – Eberswalder Strasse, Prenzlauer Berg Vintage specialists stocking 60s-90s clothes and boots. There's a retro furniture store too, at Wolinstrasse, where you can pick up authentic GDR-era homeware.

GARAGE – Ahornstrasse, Schoeneberg
