I live in Macau and have inquired about thrift stores only to get the answer that Chinese people are not into acquiring other people's old things. Bummer!
There is this old Chinese superstition that wearing someone else's clothes might infect you with the previous owner's "spirit".... same for jewels, though they say that you may be able to "save" jewels by soaking them for a very long time (we're talking in terms of days or week, not hours) in water.....
Though i don't know if this is actually a superstition very widespread in HK, in Beijing it's so well rooted, that you know people can steal you anything but clothes....
