Such a lovely shop with so many varieties of items. The ladies that work there are so friendly and kind. That in itself was an absolute pleasure. I’m excited to return.

Oh my gosh this is probably one of the most expensive resale shops I've ever been in. Everything I looked at was overpriced for resale shop. Not expensive like they have high-end items overpriced means that there's just charging too much for what something is.

This place is the epitome of thrift grift! I frequented this shop when it was in Wheaton, and after it moved down to Naperville. It's been a while since I've been back. They used to have somewhat high, but still relatively reasonable prices. But now? It's genuinely laughable. $65 for a Candyland board game? Like, cmon. Who cares that it's sealed! $100 for a Molly American Girl doll, just because she's "vintage from 1997"? You can buy her brand new with the same accessories for $115. She probably cost $90 when it was originally purchased. But the icing on the cake was the Pokémon stuff. I audibly laughed over it. They were charging $250 for an ungraded, shadow, non-first-edition, unsleeved Charizard for $250. Oh and it also had a bend in the corner, and they tried to call it LP/MP! They provide no evidence it's real, and just slapped a price on there, as if it it's authenticated and for sale at a legitimate card shop. They also had a few of the Game Boy Color games; Yellow & Red versions were $50 a piece. The "vintage" Pokémon stuffies were going for $50-$75 each--despite looking like the matted, super loved stuffed animals I have from childhood. They're treating it like they're selling premium, authenticated items on eBay Even putting that aside, their "monthly sale items" are a joke. At first it sounded great--75% off any clothing, except blue tags, and 50% off any items marked 1/23 (January 2023) and sooner--until you actually examined things. EVERYTHING was a blue tag. But they weren't even blue "tags", they were blue tag fasteners, which was confusing because I didn't see any other fastener colors. Regardless, the sale essentially meant nothing. I found a cute $8 Target brand top I wanted to buy because I thought it was 75% off. Turns out it wasn't on sale. I'm not going to pay full-price for fast fashion, especially when I could get for less brand new, in store. Furthermore, the clothing brands available were paltry, at best. The vast majority of brands were Merona, J. Jill, Talbots, SO, Faded Glory, I.N.C, SheIn, and the occasional J Crew; nothing special to write home about (aside from the hilariously astronomical prices) As for the items marked January or earlier, they were basically nonexistent. Anything you wanted that had "value" completely lacked a date, like vinyl records, board games, shoes, jewelry, and kitchen items. Now, I do know people come in and shop the sales when they first drop. But I've never been to a thrift store that essentially had 98% of items ineligible for whatever sale they're running....and I frequent thrift stores regularly. It seems more like they want to *look* like you can get a deal, than actually offer a deal. If you're looking for a thrift store in Naperville, I'm sorry but this is NOT it. I know they have the Naperville clientele who typically don't care about prices. But if you love good deals, skip this place because they're basically nonexistent here. Unless you want somewhere to kill time, this is 100% not worth it
