Shibuya's BINGO Used Clothes, Toys, and More!!

19.09.2008 by Adrian A. Lozano


What do you get when you toss Melrose Blvd., Mandarake, and a thrift store into a blender? BINGO! No really that’s the name of this new clothing store in Shibuya that opened early August 2008. BINGO is located below Shibuya’s new BOOK OFF in the Club Quattro building. Aside form used clothing one can find new and used toys, model kits, and pop-culture items from around the world.

This shop has a lot to offer even if you are just a window shopper looking to pass the time while spending the day in Shibuya. Hardcore toy Otaku finally have a place where their girlfriends can also be in the same place shopping for something other than toys. No longer will girlfriends have to bare being ignored while their other half drools over sexy figures and rummages through bins of used toys.

BINGO is a division of BOOK OFF, but as of now there is only the one shop in Shibuya. BOOK OFF is getting more and more into the Japanese toy and hobby resale market with their HOBBY OFF stores which have a similar look and feel to the Liberty shops in Akihabara.
