Auctions and Second Hand shops
My family and I are moving to Torremolinos in August. We often use second hand shops and auctions in England. Where might we find similar things in the Malaga area?
Thank you.
Thank you.

Re: Auctions and Second Hand shops
To be honest no idea (as I don't live in Malaga) but I would say in my long experience of Spain these are nowhere as popular or common as the UK.

They are not as common as in the UK, it's true, but they definitely do exist.
Try googling Tienda Benéfica or Tienda Solidaria and see what comes up - these are the charity shops. You could also try Tienda segunda mano - for general secondhand stores.
