Vinnies and Salvos go one better, they will take a men's t-shirt that sells for $4.99 at Kmart, Big W or Lowes etc, and sell it for $10 second hand. In that case the remedy is to show the store manager the new item and the price that the item sells for new.

Since I found out they were doing this I stopped shopping at those shops. I think that's a terrible pratice.

It depends on the store, some of them are operated directly by the churches as a charity, and some operate somewhat independently as a profit making business, using the church "branding" for profit. Which, is something that one might argue the church never should have allowed to happen.
