Wowa!!! Portland Oregon is full of secondhand and vintage treasures. Everthing from Goodwill bargain shops to a warehouse full of vitage madness, so much stuff you find yourself squinting to see one perticular gem.
There are mainy vintage shops in the downtown core. Theses shops are stocked with individually selected items, some which are mind blowing and pricy:Avalon, Ray's Ragtime, Magpie are a few of the vintage shops.
Buffalo Exchange is a great place for secondhand clothing. Here they do both buying and selling right in the store, good prices, quality clothes and a mens section equal in size with the ladies. http://www.buffaloexchange.com/
The Goodwills have high end botiques (which seem to be full of leather Coach purses) to warehouses full of row after row of overflowing plastic bins, hardcore.
The Hawthorne area is were you want to go if you are looking for the most bang for your buck, and a shopping experience. There are a few vintage shops Red light clothing exchange which has an excellent selection of clothing at good prices, http://www.redlightclothingexchange.com/. Vintage pink has a great selection of house hold collectables, furniture and clothing, it was a little high on the price rang, http://www.ilovevintagepink.com/.
House of vintage http://www.houseofvintage.net/ is the shopping experience, room after room of antique and vintage. I would say have a good snack drink lots and enter with 2 hours minumum.
