    BUFFALO EXCHANGE :    Mens & Womens Vintage & Clothing Exchange 

 

 

 

 

About:

 

Buffalo Exchange is unique because clothing and accessories are bought, sold and traded directly with store customers. Used clothes can be traded for any item in the store, including jewelry and brand new clothing. The ever-changing inventory includes designer wear, basics, vintage, jeans, leather and one-of-a-kind items. Buffalo Exchange donates to local nonprofit agencies in the community through its Tokens for Bags program, which has generated nearly $285,000 for hundreds of nonprofits since 1994, saving 5.7 million bags. Shoppers are encouraged to accept a token instead of a bag for purchases, and Buffalo Exchange donates five cents to a charity of the customer's choice. As of August 2008, the resale clothing store chain has 33 stores and 2 franchises in 13 states, with over $49.4 million a year in sales.

COATS FOR CUBS

 

 

Coats For Cubs


Give your furs back to the animals! Starting Saturday, November 14 through Earth Day on Thursday, April 22, bring your real fur apparel, including trims, accessories and shearling, to any Buffalo Exchange and let us know it's a donation for Coats for Cubs. Since you're donating to The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), condition is unimportant. Used furs provide bedding and comfort to orphaned and injured wildlife. Since 2006, Buffalo Exchange has collected a total of 3,885 used furs on behalf of Coats for Cubs. To claim a tax deduction, please mail your fur directly to The Humane Society of the United States, Attn: Coats for Cubs, 2100 L St., N.W., Washington, D.C. 20037.

The HSUS and Buffalo Exchange, an official endorser, ask you to voice support fo the Truth in Fur Labeling Act of 2009 (H.R. 2480/S.1076). If passed, this act would require all garments made with animal fur to say so on the label, helping consumers make more informed decisions. See HERE for additional information.

The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) is the nation's largest animal protection organization - backed by 11 million Americans, or one of every 28. For more than a half-century, The HSUS has been fighting for the protection of all animals through advocacy, education and hands-on programs.
