Goodwill thinks they are a consignment shop with these prices. This is a THRIFT store. Seems greedy to charge such high prices when it's all donated. This community is having a hard enough time. Do better.

$75 for a used rocking chair that's falling apart and $20 for a pair of shoes with the sole coming off that they had donated for free is crazy to me for a non profit organization.

I was at this store on Saturday evening, there were 2 adult men play fighting with 2 large stuffed animals. An employee made a laughing comment to the effect of “how old are you”. The men both smiled at the employee and said in Spanish that they did not speak English, the employee said she didn’t speak Spanish and that was the entire exchange. I hate how people just say whatever behind a keyboard to be mean to an employee that is just doing their job. I’ve always found the employees to be very helpful and kind. Especially the lady that handles the books.

I came in recently with my family and during checking out there was an elderly lady worker with a Jamie Lee Curtis haircut that started racially profiling and approaching two Hispanic men that were not doing anything wrong they were literally looking at stuffed animals and kids clothes.. So out of nowhere she gets in their face asking for their age and if they speak English and they politely said no sorry and cusses them out still getting irritated with them for no reason and tells another coworker to “watch them” as she goes in the back. I don’t know what happened after, but the entire hour or so I was there she was yelling at people for touching items, yelled at someone for wanting to try on clothes, and the racial incident with these two guys. Overall, I put all my stuff back because I’m not finding a RACIST store. I’ve never had bad experiences at Goodwill worker wise, but this lady needs to be fired. There’s many testimonies on a Facebook thread about the Athens location on how she profiles certain people including testimonies from people that’s worked with her and it’s clearly anyone that isn’t white, is her target. Discrimination at its finest.

Selling television that's over 10 years old at 100 bucks or more is ridiculous!

All of the employees are super nice and helpful but the prices are very expensive. I normally do find one or two things priced fairly.

Used to love Goodwill especially at their old location when prices were reasonable however over the last year at their new location they WAY overprice items it’s honestly getting ridiculous. Very Greedy is what it is and ever since their Goodwill finds website launch all name brand stuff is pulled and sold at basically new prices online. They pull stuff that isn’t even that great at stores either and overprice it. I miss the old goodwill where everything no matter the brand or size or condition was like $2.99 or $4.99 it’s sad that merchandise that’s donated that they have ZERO money in is so overpriced. I used to get so excited when I’d find a good deal on a north face jacket or Nike shirt, now it’ll at least be $20 which isn’t even a deal. Overall the new store is clean and the staff is nice they just need to quite overpricing stuff then I might would purchase more from here. I do shop here at least once a week and it has gotten higher by the week it seems. Today I went in and they had some used adidas lunchboxes that were stained for $15.99 like that’s absurd and a pair of used heydudes for $60!?!?!? I purchased new ones for around $40. INSANE price gauging. Corporate definitely getting rich off people that’s for sure!!

Spiderman (2002) on DVD scratched to hell and back for $4. Nah I'm good. I enjoy browsing movie sections but those prices, with no quality control, is ridiculous.

We will never shop at this location again. Went with my family and I have never experienced such rudeness at a business in my life. Staff cursing out loud in front of children, talking about customers (loud enough to be heard from a good distance) with the manager standing right beside them and didn't say a word, we left our stuff and walked out. Definitely need better management and staff if you want this location to thrive.

I love this goodwill, I travel from Huntsville to come here specifically. Unfortunately the new staff is disappointing. I find them lazy if you ask for something, they don’t seem to want to get it. They are also short with customers if questions are asked. This makes the environment uninviting. I’ve gauged this over the last few visits. The worst of it all, if it’s near closing time they turn off the lights while customers are inside and claim registers shut off “on there own” at exactly seven. I’m just disappointed I spend money here weekly and if it weren’t for the quality of the items I would stop coming to this location all together.

I like the Goodwill, BUT sometimes they have prices as if they are selling from a new store. This store is made for people on a tight budget. With that said, some stuff is at a decent price though. They do have a big selection of stuff. The workers are also friendly. I would recommend trying them out if you need something or want to shop around.
