They stole all the COVID money from their employees then fired all of them.Shameful terrible people run this dump.Plus they sell you garbage for a premium ?️?

An amazing arts based thrift store with some really fascinating items in store. Very friendly service. The customers are bohemian and the whole place feels welcoming.

Coudn't facilitate students making engineer prototypes without this place! And, to my surprise, on my last visit, teachers receive $25 of free stuff each month! My haul of $42 only cost me $17! A welcome discount, as I spend $$$ on consumable supplies regularly! I've been going to EBDFCR since 1984 when they were in a garage in North Oakland! Does anyone out there know what I'm talking about???

Volunteered here for sewing class twice. I've passed many times over the years but never went in. Great organization devoted to reuse and repurpose of items that would end up in landfill. Lots of great and unique items at fab prices. Wonderful staff too.

This is the best place for crafting! They had literately everything from paint to fabric! The price is weighted by pounds! I bought so many lace for real cheap! Stuff is really nice and helpful! Will definitely come back again! This place is the best!

As an artist I find this place such a boon. I get used canvases, art tools, even tools that I never knew existed. Sometimes there paintings that I would consider art. There are other items as well, fabrics, pottery, and knick knacks of all sorts that you could use for your arts and crafts projects.

I love this place and concept! Wish there were more places like this across the Bay Area, it would make a lot of items more accessible to all.

Dropping off donations was easy breezy. I knew they wouldn’t take everything, but they were polite and explained what they had too much of, and what they would like more of. It made it much easier to collect things for my second trip.

I love this place! As a serial crafter I buy a lot of materials for whatever new craft project I’m starting up here. I love reducing the environmental footprint of my crafting!

Really great spot for some good craft deals or cheap supplies. It's a reuse store so sometimes you really have to dig through the bins to find something, but it is so cheap and can find some bulk items! I was impressed with the embroidery, yarn, and sewing material they have available. Love this spot!

One of my absolute favorite stores in the east bay. Maybe even my favorite. If you're reading this, go there. So much inspiration in this upcycling venue. My favorite finds have been plaster teeth molds and photo slides but they have all kinds of things here

One of the few places one can find recycled materials these days. I often come looking for odd things and end up finding a few more I didn’t know I needed. Items are priced to move which I appreciate with all this inflation.
