Why are people hating on this? Recycling clothes is the best fashion trend that could have ever happened to this planet, and good for this guy for making a profit from it. Dudes living my dream honestly. I'm sure his success has a lot to do with marketing, and he knows what people want to buy. He's not just selling your old sweatpants you donated to Goodwill.
People are miserable and when an idea is so simple and brilliant at the same time.... people look for reasons to down play it....

@@kenS87 the tee doesn't need added value through customizations. Supply and demand. Like that Madonna shirt at the beginning. That's a 90's shirt, and since it was a tour shirt, a limited amount was made, making the $200 price point realistic, especially considering Madonna is a highly prolific figure.
I agree. It's like a subtle dopamine high that never really ends. I still can't believe I found this K70 mechanical keyboard for 1 dollar at a garage sale. Seriously, you can find some crazy stuff just floating around out there for dirt cheap. And I'm rich. But, I still like spending as little as insanely possible to get the highest quality goods I can.
b-b the hunt really is the best, I do estate sales but they are hit and miss. One sale might be full of 80’s acid wash Guess and the next is full of Alfred Dunner garbage. So to have it all in one place saves time to sell it and make profit when you do this full time.
On Melrose Avenue my friend and I went to a store and there was a dress we saw in downtown LA for $15 dollars but in this store was $120 dollars we were shocked by that ,those stores make money out of stupid people.
@DW DW what the dood is trying to say is that most of the profit comes from the hype clothes they sell. In the video you can see he's selling off white air jordan 1s and he has shirts by cpfm (which rarely go under 200).
I went to Round Two Hollywood last summer. I brought some vintage tees and they cashed me out for nearly $500 cash. A short trip to the store gave me some extra $p£nds for my holiday. The staff in the vintage store were super cool and polite. Sean was dealing with people near the entrance as we were leaving, he stopped his conversation, turned around and thanked us for coming into the store. SUPER nice dude! I'm glad they're doing so well. Great guys with a real passion for what they do.
Aldaz Muñiz You think if I bring my vintage Power Ranger undies they’ll give me something? They do have some 20 year old skid marks on them, but otherwise they’re in good condition. I wonder if I’ll be able to see Sean at the store and I’ll be able to sell him my vintage adidas socks with holes in them, the holes add to the aesthetic btw so maybe I’ll charge extra.
Recycling clothes is pretty environmentally friendly. I personally wouldn't pay that much for used clothes but it's pretty dope that people are creating good looks out of what would otherwise be wasted fabric and labor. Also, great opportunity to sell those funky concert tees you bought years back and never wore.
@@jesuslightsmyway Why is it trash? Value is 100% subjective and if someone wants to spend $200 on a old shirt instead of wasting resources on a brand new one then that's all gravy in my book

@@pastelpurpledeathbed most stains can but not all, I tend to bleach stains out of all whites and use vanish on coloured stuff, I don't buy new clothing due to the impact it has on our environment and the fact I just love the thrift scene, I've found every top fashion brand in a thrift store for a few bucks
you all moaning because of the prices compared to thrift stores but you have to understand that people sometimes want something very specific, like 80s levi dungarees or a new york yankees sweatshirt from the 90s for example. Finding that item by chance at your local thrift is extremely unlikely. However vintage stores like this one make it easier for people to find an item they want and also is great for people like myself who only wear vintage so going to a store that ONLY sells vintage is like heaven to me. I dont wanna dig through tons of modern crap to find one vintage item that i might not even like at a thrift. I also respect the prices at these vintage stores because you are paying for their time and effort of finding rare items, and other overhead costs of running a business. SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL VINTAGE STORES
He hit the nail on the head! People want the experience and the story more than they want the object itself. Retailers are dying because they're annoying.
About 5 years ago my brothers and I went to their tiny shop in Richmond when they first started. I was 13 and most of the stuff wasn’t for me, a girl, but I remember being so blown away with what they had made. So happy to see they’ve been so successful!!!
Good on them. They tapped into a niche market. Not that many people wanna scour the thriftshops for hours. They’re basically the intermediary for hypebeasts.
Having a store that you can go to and *know* you'll find stuff you want, is gold. That's what these guys are doing. It looks like they're super organized and keep the place clean which is a big plus.
Except these guys are scummy. They send employees to thrift shops all over cleaning everything good out before the stores even open. No point going to any thrift 100 miles from any of their stores. Also these dude's ain't poor their basically taking clothes that are supposed to be cheap for people that don't have alot of money and selling it at ridiculous prices.
So this is basically just a well-branded, expensive thrift store? I know a lot of great thrift stores with quality clothes at low prices. This seems all about the hype.
Tbh Richmond has been a big thrifting hub for a while now Round 2 isn’t even the 3rd store I think of when it comes to thrifting I always thought it was a sneaker shop
Im personally into the whole pink, girly vibe and everyone seems to be into this ugly skater person edgy look but he seems like a genuine guy and so kind. So props to him ❤️
Annie S yeah nah, everyone has their own style and you’re just plain basic. Just admit it lmao. Just the fact that you say “ugly skater look” you don’t Know fashion at all. No one that skate dress like this. Smh
The bad thing about this “vintage” trend is the overpriced clothing for cheap shirts. It’s hard to find unique shirts, but the only good thing is once you find a unique shirt it’s totally worth the time invested. Either way the price you pay for someone else finding a shirt is not justified enough, although, arguably you could say you paying for the time they took. This shouldn’t be $60 -$200 for a vintage look shirt. This should be a go and find yourself and grind for the look you want. The experience and reward is totally worth it.
@AlphaX Given how agribusiness companies reacted to the GMO and gluten free trends, I think they will "waste their time". People end up making decisions with their wallets my guy. Not hard to figure out.
I was literally JUST in the shower thinking about how much I hate the concept of "thrift boutiques" and then this popped up in my recommended. Don't even have to say shit out loud anymore for the algorithm to know.
To all the people saying Round Two is just an overpriced thrift store, it’s not. Trust me, to get the kind of inventory guys like him have you need to do a LOT of digging. Stores like his are successful because of people who don’t want to spend hours sifting through goodwills to go home with one or two items. Vintage stores are in the business of curating a collection.
yea there are lots of idiots in the comments thinking you can just waltz into any thift store anyday and immediately find multiple 80s/90s music tees or something similar lol. its not nearly that easy
ItsSoGiggity god no lol. Try showing up at your local goodwill outlet to sift through the bins for 8-12 hours at a time six days a week, and then tell me how these guys just run an overpriced goodwill.
Its SO HARD finding cool old stuff, i love that he’s doing the hard work and the consumer pays for it. People in these comments wear 2 dollar t shirts made by 8 year olds and think theyre superior
Its not about where the clothes come from. It's about the rarity and condition like any other commodity. "Vintage" is relative, but the quality and uniqueness of clothes made in places like Korea during the 80's 90's is undeniably.
I disagree, this is not high fashion. These are mass produced items which most of us throw away in the trash, some people don’t and they end up here. When supreme puts a music icon on a tee, then people want similar tees, especially these rich hypebeast kids. All the other shit in that warehouse is worth the same, just is not in fashion at the moment. If you go to Poland or Eastern European countries they have tons and tons of secondhand clothing warehouses and stores with items less than a dollar, even fur coats...but they don’t have the hypebeasts like they do in rich countries.
He's right when he says the retail stores closing suck. Many of those brands have lost touch as to why customers liked the brands to begin with. Also brands need to adapt and some don't. 😳
@@suerizqy21 huh? 500 is nothing for a t shirt nowadays. 2 in the world? They will sell a super mass prouduced shirt for $1000. Vintage is huge right now.
The truth is this man is not just hustling, he is doing what a lot of businesses don’t think they have to do anymore. He is being personable and helpful and kind. I can’t keep count anymore on how many times I’ve just walked out of a store and decided to buy from amazon not because I didn’t have the money, but because I was treated like I was wasting people’s time if I wasn’t coming to y’all to them without cash in my hand.
For the most part it's actually people old enough to have authentic memory's / connections with these pieces. Maybe it's something they had as a child / teenager growing up and it was lost or stolen, maybe it was something they always wanted but could never afford. The Hypebeast/Hipster aspect is definitely a huge part of their business but it's not the only part.
I love it. Get yours dude. Especially in a time like this, if you can succeed with a store like that, you're killing it. The way he interacts with his customers goes quite a long way. He knows what's up.
People don’t understand that after a certain amount of time these T-shirt’s become a wearable canvas. These are art pieces from previous generations that are being found, yes they can be pricey but it’s not everyday you come across an original Metallica tour shirt from the 80s designed by Pushead. The wear and fade to these pieces give character and tell stories from the past and hold true sentimental value for others. These aren’t your ordinary shirts, these are pieces of history that need to be preserved.
People in these comments don't realize how sustainable vintage really is. The type of people that would walk into their local H&M store and buy cheap quality clothes made by a 12 year old asian kid.
My mom was best friends with his mom and still is to this day. I know it’s just a phrase but he didn’t quite come from rags. Fun fact I played his game boy when I was like 7 at his house he seemed chill
Height St in San Francisco was already doing this since way back when. I use to go shop there all time since 1992-2008. Back before it was the cool thing to do. But I know they were already doing that long before I even started to shop there.
In my opinion it's almost a cult like thing. The guy is super charasmatic and telling impressionable young people what they want to hear so they barely notice that he's charging them insane prices for junk.
@@Alicia-vq8jg In my opinion he is not doing anything wrong. He is finding and curating good products that he thinks his followers might buy. And people are getting a good collection of products at a single place, which is saving them time and money!
@AlphaX They probably sell more vintage at a lower tier price than the higher tier prices. I think perhaps the deal between him and the warehouse guy was fabricated so people don't catch on. They probably do deals by the pound I feel and either person doesn't want to let out their 200% to 500% mark ups. I was in a similar business and we would get things for literally cents and were surprised how much people would pay for some items. This company's social media doesn't seem to be super popular, the comment sections are rather dead. They do net a decent amount from their youtube channel but it's kinda coming off as just another one of those "Hype Beast" things, or maybe a fake it till you make it. The 'vintage' business is booming but he probably makes more off of the newer stuff. I still applaud them.
@AlphaX Yeah, these hype trains have been going for awhile, but eventually people will want something new and shiny. Most people don't even want vintage clothing, they want retro clothing. Maybe they have some sorta plan, but hell his business is risky.
i hate everyone who thinks he just opened up a shop and taxed on old clothes, the work the pickers do and even to get an eye for this stuff takes years to learn and even master this is something that you can only learn through years of trail and error and sean is the best at it
I love this instead of buying shitty new clothes that will either fall apart or be out of style in a month they extend the life of old almost one of a kind pieces making their personal style in the process.
The thrift stores in my area have a lot of old t-shirt like those, mostly untapped as people around here just wouldn't pay for used stuff to much. Just the other day I saw some old Run DMC tees ect..... Going back to grab them and will be listing soon
$50 for that Madonna shirt? Insane. I resell and looking at this warehouse.. imagine a candy shop as a kid. Call it what you want but they’re having fun at the end of the day as well as making serious cash. If I lived in California I’d be there every week dropping $500+
Sneezymilk I bet they buy their clothes from donation centers who don't have room to put all of the clothes on the floor. I have no idea why anyone would pay extra for some old thrifted clothes 😂
Kim D they get there clothes from pallets by the pound, I’ve bought clothes by the ton before, I got a TON of clothes for 250 dollars. It cost mire to sort and go through it
You should go to Poland or other countries in Eastern Europe, they have thousands of these vintage secondhand clothing warehouses and stuff is like one dollar, even fur coats. Because people are poor there it’s a necessity rather than a fashion for rich kids.
I love the environmental significance of initiatives like that. I would never buy things over there though, it takes away from the creative process of finding what you personnally like in a thrift store. And it costs way too much.
So glad I'm smart enough to go to the Thrift Store myself and find awesome stuff for next to nothing. Once got an Oscar De La Renta suit for $11 didn't need tailoring just cleaned it n wore it.
That's great, suits and office attire can be expensive at full price and some stores price accordingly. Looks like you were able to get a deal and not have to repair or get extensive cleaning done. Thrift stores should continue to keep prices low so those on a budget can dress for success.

Everybody is shopping more at thrift stores, because of the economy, vintage is the new cool!!
Honestly Sean is an inspiration when I heard he was coming out with a pair of shoes with Nike I was hyped then sneaker resellers took all the pairs
So there customer base is just hypebeast's and hipster's?
their. stay in school
For the most part it's actually people old enough to have authentic memory's / connections with these pieces. Maybe it's something they had as a child / teenager growing up and it was lost or stolen, maybe it was something they always wanted but could never afford. The Hypebeast/Hipster aspect is definitely a huge part of their business but it's not the only part.
Kids
People who don't wanna be seen in a local thrift store.
Douchey
Wasn’t expecting that $20 million. Sean’s been killing the game and Vintage is only expanding
Now I know where my old Nike shirt went when I put it in that giant metal container near the supermarket that says "Help the Homeless"
Wow they shutdown all their stores except 1! Well they had a good run for a few years at least
I guess i’ll be going for the brand new tracking pants also!
I love it. Get yours dude. Especially in a time like this, if you can succeed with a store like that, you're killing it. The way he interacts with his customers goes quite a long way. He knows what's up.
In the Philippines it’s called “Ukay-Ukay”... literally means, “dig-dig”.
Indonesian it's called "awul-awul" and also means "dig-dig" haha.
Adam Fadill something new i learned from a neighbor... hehe!😜👍
Hahahahaha trueeeee
Everyone is a fool... All you have to do ...Is make them believe that they are smart....and making a right choice by doing this deal with you. 😂🤣😂😂🤣🤣😂
My mans wearing a South African T-shirt 🇿🇦
Antonio Vasconcelos yep, Vlone
the interviewer is asking all the right questions. perfect narration
People don’t understand that after a certain amount of time these T-shirt’s become a wearable canvas. These are art pieces from previous generations that are being found, yes they can be pricey but it’s not everyday you come across an original Metallica tour shirt from the 80s designed by Pushead. The wear and fade to these pieces give character and tell stories from the past and hold true sentimental value for others. These aren’t your ordinary shirts, these are pieces of history that need to be preserved.
Stop with the hating. Support the hustle. The RUclips show is dope.
I'm starting a used vintage underwear store.
Erik C maybe have vintage poo stains too
Hey man don't hate those skidmarked Underoos from the 80s with ninja turtles on them worth some big money now
People in these comments don't realize how sustainable vintage really is. The type of people that would walk into their local H&M store and buy cheap quality clothes made by a 12 year old asian kid.
I feel like Sean’s beard is about to take over his whole face 😂
My mom was best friends with his mom and still is to this day. I know it’s just a phrase but he didn’t quite come from rags. Fun fact I played his game boy when I was like 7 at his house he seemed chill
Nice
Height St in San Francisco was already doing this since way back when. I use to go shop there all time since 1992-2008. Back before it was the cool thing to do. But I know they were already doing that long before I even started to shop there.
Stop hating on sean. Probably the nicest guy in street wear
He gives me Adam Levine vibes. Same LA douchiness...lol.
People who move to LA are the worst lol. I left my own damn city to get away from people like him.
Dude is a genius. Perfectly blended marketing, social media and business!!! Good On him.
Why pay Extra ?
Go find stuff in the used stores
he is curating the products from different stores so you could get a good collection at a single store
People pay for convenience.
In my opinion it's almost a cult like thing. The guy is super charasmatic and telling impressionable young people what they want to hear so they barely notice that he's charging them insane prices for junk.
@@Alicia-vq8jg
Millionair scams
Weak teenage idiots
By acting like a cool street punk
@@Alicia-vq8jg In my opinion he is not doing anything wrong. He is finding and curating good products that he thinks his followers might buy. And people are getting a good collection of products at a single place, which is saving them time and money!
This dude looks like the most down to earth and cool as dude to ever meet!.
Wow the guy with warehouse got over on them!
Right? I could go to salvation army or a thrift store and get shirts like that for 3 bucks each lol.
It’ll be worth it once they get over on on all the hype beast teens.
He sure did.
@AlphaX They probably sell more vintage at a lower tier price than the higher tier prices. I think perhaps the deal between him and the warehouse guy was fabricated so people don't catch on. They probably do deals by the pound I feel and either person doesn't want to let out their 200% to 500% mark ups. I was in a similar business and we would get things for literally cents and were surprised how much people would pay for some items.
This company's social media doesn't seem to be super popular, the comment sections are rather dead. They do net a decent amount from their youtube channel but it's kinda coming off as just another one of those "Hype Beast" things, or maybe a fake it till you make it. The 'vintage' business is booming but he probably makes more off of the newer stuff. I still applaud them.
@AlphaX Yeah, these hype trains have been going for awhile, but eventually people will want something new and shiny. Most people don't even want vintage clothing, they want retro clothing. Maybe they have some sorta plan, but hell his business is risky.
“I feel like if your brick and mortar are dying you suck.” Lmfao. Honestly thought this dude was pretty chill until I realized how close-minded he is.
3:15 sean caught himself lol nice save tho you could see the dollar signs in his eyes
Monopoly 😅
He's not selling old stuff, he created a brand around old stuff. Master class work.
Love sean so much, a shame that his second collab with Nike didnt work out.
It's so weird to see stuff from when your a kid in the 90s and hear it's vintage now! Lol
This guy probably busted his ass off to find all those pieces and continues too. Some people get lucky but others are smart. Kudos man!
Love it. Love the guys and the show and the store.
Isn’t this just eBay in person?
w/o huge Ebay fees and psycho Ebay buyers forcing you to refund them, yes.
I watch this video from time to time as a sort of reminder of how far I need to go. This video was my jumpstart into vintage
2000+ dollars for couple of raggedy tshirts. crazy!
Firdaus Ismail Old dude was banking on these guys 😂 He knows how they flip it so he’s gotta get his in somehow
It still just a tshirts.
i hate everyone who thinks he just opened up a shop and taxed on old clothes, the work the pickers do and even to get an eye for this stuff takes years to learn and even master this is something that you can only learn through years of trail and error and sean is the best at it
I love this instead of buying shitty new clothes that will either fall apart or be out of style in a month they extend the life of old almost one of a kind pieces making their personal style in the process.
The thrift stores in my area have a lot of old t-shirt like those, mostly untapped as people around here just wouldn't pay for used stuff to much. Just the other day I saw some old Run DMC tees ect..... Going back to grab them and will be listing soon
$50 for that Madonna shirt? Insane. I resell and looking at this warehouse.. imagine a candy shop as a kid. Call it what you want but they’re having fun at the end of the day as well as making serious cash. If I lived in California I’d be there every week dropping $500+
Sneezymilk I bet they buy their clothes from donation centers who don't have room to put all of the clothes on the floor. I have no idea why anyone would pay extra for some old thrifted clothes 😂
James Franko it is! That’s worth $150+ good profit.
Kim D cause it’s a one out of one for the most part. people just love vintage clothes. Just like how you would buy new clothes.
Kim D they get there clothes from pallets by the pound, I’ve bought clothes by the ton before, I got a TON of clothes for 250 dollars. It cost mire to sort and go through it
You should go to Poland or other countries in Eastern Europe, they have thousands of these vintage secondhand clothing warehouses and stuff is like one dollar, even fur coats. Because people are poor there it’s a necessity rather than a fashion for rich kids.
I love the environmental significance of initiatives like that. I would never buy things over there though, it takes away from the creative process of finding what you personnally like in a thrift store. And it costs way too much.
Yebo🦸that's that South African "friends" vlone t-shirt 🇿🇦
Sean Wotherspoon is nothing short of brilliant.
“Dude, I am soooo hyped... what’s your IG?” 🤮
Yeah, he knows what works with his audience
Hes gonna post the picture of the shoes on his IG and shout out the kids IG
Yeah that made me so queasy... How can he sleep at night ripping off little kids like that who clearly see him as a God or something... 🤢
The dude takes the time to spend with his fans... that's pretty honourable.
Lol
Inspiring. Beautiful confirmation that my Thrifting videos and tips are the future. God bless Round Two!
At the end of the day, this dude is in his room counting his money and be like: " Suckersssss "
I don't really like that style of clothing for myself, but I respect the hustle.
My wife and I do the same thing with old furniture and it's going well.
So, why doesn’t he cut out the middleman Wherehouse and just buy bulk used clothes and start his own Wherehouse too...🤔
going to goodwill now and looking for all music type shirts putting them in a box and selling them for a lot in 10 years
So glad I'm smart enough to go to the Thrift Store myself and find awesome stuff for next to nothing. Once got an Oscar De La Renta suit for $11 didn't need tailoring just cleaned it n wore it.
That's great, suits and office attire can be expensive at full price and some stores price accordingly. Looks like you were able to get a deal and not have to repair or get extensive cleaning done. Thrift stores should continue to keep prices low so those on a budget can dress for success.
I love that his beard connects to his chest hair
This is basically a larger scale of what everyone is trying to do on resale shops online now, depop being one, and mine is at Suza L , so check it out
"It's vegan" 💀
That long sleeves you have on the thumb nail is so unique. One thing i like in thrift store is you can find fashionable outfits with unique designs.
Damn there's a lot of haters in these comments
A big aspect of round two is definitely the community and the culture they have created.
How do you gentrify thrifted clothes? 😂
Is not gentrification
YAMI_TV yo you killed me with that one💀
everything gets gentrified in life
*Yeah because no white people would buy a Madonna tshirt before this store opened. Dumbass...*
Best show on RUclips
