  <title>Way cool</title>
  <description><![CDATA[Tucson Weekly published a book review on The Way of the Buffalo by Spencer Block, one of the founders of Buffalo Exchange, in "On Buffalo Wings,"&amp;nbsp;Nov 17, 2011: "The late Spencer Block details the history of the clothing-exchange chain that was born here in Tucson... Every city has parts of its heritage that earn it recognition throughout the country[, including] retail establishments...&amp;nbsp;So it's about time that Buffalo Exchange has its own history told. Spencer's book... gives readers an intimate peek into the lives of the store's co-founders... The Way of the Buffalo... finally published this year as a hodgepodge of advice, stories, observations, opinions and even poetry. Kerstin and her daughter went through his typed-out ramblings and edited them into a quite readable -- in fact, delightful -- history of the store."&amp;nbsp;The Way of the Buffalo is available at your local Buffalo Exchange and on Amazon for $10.&amp;nbsp;Also available on Kindle and NOOK. See preview.]]></description>

  <title>Best of New York City!</title>
  <description><![CDATA[The Village Voice named Buffalo Exchange Best Used Clothing Store in the Best of NYC&amp;nbsp;2011 on Oct 20: "We just can't tear ourselves away from Buffalo Exchange. The resale chain has numerous shops spread across 15 states (if you're ever in Seattle, that one rocks), and their outposts in the East Village, Williamsburg, and Chelsea are transformative experiences. The broad stores are neatly organized by genre and clothing category, but the plethora of styles and quality (from uppity designers to Forever 21 castoffs) are encouraging to sartorial creativity: Try not to plan entire closetfuls of new outfits as you scan the racks."]]></description>

  <title>Elle Magazine repurposes Buffalo Exchange finds</title>
  <description><![CDATA[Elle Magazine shopped Buffalo Exchange in "Style A to Zee: Second Life," July 2011 issue, Slip Up: "Who says your new look has to be, well, new? With a little ingenuity (and the help of an ace tailor), Creative Director Joe Zee pillages vintage stores, boys&amp;rsquo; departments&amp;mdash;even his assistant&amp;rsquo;s closet&amp;mdash;to reinvent already-loved treasures... Found at: Buffalo Exchange, NYC. Price: $5 apiece. Maybe you&amp;rsquo;ve got slips left over from the Courtney Love era; or maybe you collect them because you can&amp;rsquo;t resist the beauty of vintage lingerie. If the darting is too high or too low, or the shape too roomy, don&amp;rsquo;t hesitate to have underpinnings tailored too. How I Styled It: Antonio [Marquez, 'tailor extraordinaire'] integrated the ruffles and bodices to create one easy, flirty dress. Pair it with a classic, slightly more downtown denim jacket, and you&amp;rsquo;re good to go."]]></description>

Stop by one of the more stylish recycled fashion stores like Buffalo Exchange...&amp;nbsp;After all, the stock comes from eco-fashionistas just like you. Store employees with an eye for fashion curate these once-loved-pieces, buying them back if they seem cute enough to attract another wearer...
