    Perhaps you should visit some of the chazzers in Chelsea? They make Jaeger look like a comparative bargain :o
    Last time I was in London visited every charity shop I could find in Chelsea and came away empty handed. My main aim was to get a nice bag but also looked through clothes. Nothing special but the prices seemed high. Think a lot of the better items are now sold on-line.
    There is a nice charity shop between Harrods and the museums but again is expensive. I think the days of getting hidden gems are over but I keep looking anyway.
