listen, you paid what you thought it was worth to you
that's how retail works
they buy product, then sell them at a markup
you buy products from them only if you think it's worth the price they're asking
you get the product, they get the money

I don’t think about the price, It’s about reselling something you got at a charity.
Plenty of stores sell cheap, used stuff that everyone can fit in their budgets. More and more of these resellers are picking the stores clean, leaving a lot less available for those who “need” it.

charity shops aren't for those who "need" the products, their sole purpose is to generate funds for the charity. have you lost your mind?

Well, not according to these organisations, like Oxfam here who boast about the ecological and social aspect of second hand products.
Clearly you have no idea what these organisations do or stand for?
