Instagram thrift shops have been all the rage since the big “P,” but it takes taste to keep it going. As an avid (and competitive) miner, gatekeeping is one of my guilty pleasures to make sure I get what I want. But as a writer, it’s also my duty to share excellent finds when I spot them. 

These shops are the real deal, in the sense that the prices aren’t as outlandish as other online thrift shops, but also because the curation and quality are out of this world. Some of my favorite pieces are from these digital shelves, so I’ll be the first to say that these places really (and literally) do deliver. 

The saying goes, “If you love something, let it go,” so I’m releasing these IG shops to the world. Just please don’t beat me at the mining game. I will cry.
