This article, which is informed by a study of secondhand clothing retail, aims to reflect methodologically on various correspondences surrounding sources and correspondences between sources and a researcher. The article discusses the influence such correspondences might have on interpreting, perceiving, and explaining the researched phenomenon of secondhand clothing retail. It reviews what authors of various sources focused upon while photographing, writing, or talking about mostly Slovene and Slovak commission shops. It also exposes a part of the author’s research process, discusses public media’s agenda, and questions what affected either researcher or media contributors to address the selected parts of the researched topic. The author claims that care and the possibility of changing perceptions result primarily from the emotional, moral, or political correspondence between, for example, the researcher’s values or interests and those of various sources. Therefore, an individual’s auto-reflectivity and sincerity are a crucial part of the research as well as a process of interpretation
