How come you never see bikes or musical instruments at vintage stores?
I've been going to these places weekly for well over a decade. I very rarely see bikes, adult ones. And instruments, I've never seen drums or a bass guitar in all that time or like a trombone or something like that. Seen 4 guitars. None have been any good, all MIJ 60's acoustic junk w/ bowed necks. Seen an Esteban guitar before too and those are not good (played an Esteban before).
Do they get these two items and just sell them online, I know Goodwill does, at least some things, but what about other places?
I am looking for a bike, would like something vintage in the $25 range. Willing to do repairs: tires, brakes, chain, grips. Can't get my hands on one as they never show up at these places and Craigslist is never any good to me.
I bet most of the thrift stores take the better merchandise and sell it on eBay and in GoodWill's case they probably sell it on their auction website or people don't donate these items and sell them on either craigslist, eBay, yard sales, etc.
Maybe some thrift stores don't accept bikes due to safety reasons or discard donated bikes for this reason?
You could always call the thrift stores by phone or visit in person and ask if they ever receive any bikes or guitars through donations. If they do you could ask if you could leave your phone number and name and have them contact you whenever either is donated into the store and maybe see if they could hold the item for you.
