A magical place! What makes this place so unique, is that it is rather chaotic, (in the same way that one of those "I spy" books you might have read as a child were). It isn't the best as far as organization haha, and yes everything is just piled in boxes, but it makes it all the more fun. I personally scored some really unique, authentic military uniforms from this place, as well as a huge selection of other random pieces. Their prices are not the cheapest, but that's okay, cuz when you find that super unique Joe Camel, windbreaker that your uncle had 40 years ago, for $15, it's well worth it. To all those saying it smells like cigarettes, grow up lmao

Huge thrift store with a lot of clothes organized by boxes. Honestly, not worth visiting. The prizes are definitely not good for a thrift store and the fact that you have to dig through so much stuff to find something does not help.
Probably the cheapest things you can find are for 5$ (e.g. rings) but usually sweaters, jeans etc can be 7$-15$ which in my opinion is not worth it when you have other huge second-hands/charity shops that are better organized (on the racks) and have the same stuff for cheaper.

I've been coming here on recommendation from a friend. I like how it's organized - you have some of your more choice items hanging up and easy to access, but also much, MUCH more if you're willing to look. Part of the fun is definitely in sifting through the boxes looking for what you want. All of their bins and boxes are labeled, so you can peruse for a certain type of item instead of aimlessly looting through piles. Unfortunately for myself I'm extremely picky so I haven't found many items I fancy, but I will keep coming back to find them! The prices are more than fair, making it well worth it if you can find what you're looking for.
They have lots of jeans and leather goods if you're especially looking for great deals on those.

I have been shopping at Udelco since at least 2011 so I figured it was about time to leave a review. If I could leave 6 stars I would. The shopping experience is easy as the way everything is organized you can find exactly what you are looking for. I am a wardrobe designer and stylist with very specific ideas when I’m shopping. So, for me, I already know what I want and 10/10 times I find it here as the boxes are clearly and specifically marked with what the contents are. I have moved away over the years but my job has me traveling now and I always plan the detour to shop twice a year when I’m in NYC. Renting a car for the day or even ubering either a few friends is worth the cost when the cost of stuff is so fair. I have a friend who lives in LA but now only shops here since he is rather tall, and it’s the only place he has EVER found jeans that fit. Note: they have a kids and a big&tall vintage section. I’ve brought numerous celebrity clients to shop and they all have left with huge hauls and continue to come back. Here is what to expect: everything is as is. But that’s the beauty of it all. I’ve found paint splattered denim cargos that would sell for $100’s in the city from a designer brand for $15. My favorite denim pieces, all from here. I’ve found pieces with the vintage tags still on it. I get the most compliments on a pair of deadstock cargos I got my last trip, so this trip I bought them in every color they had. I’ve found pieces that needed a little tlc or tailored but well worth it when they are staples in my closet. I travel the world shopping and my best vintage finds have come from here and Japan. Pro tips: bring cash and some reusable shopping bags to carry your stash.

those prices are quite high considering you have to go through boxes of clothes by yourself, only a few items are hung but the rest is like a treasure hunt. continuous digging and searching, getting on the floor and looking through boxes. i got a girls hoodie and jeans for a total of $24, i would've expected to pay nothing more than $8-$10 or so... there was only one worker, pretty young and running around as he was also the cashier.

Brother and I we’re extremely excited to go, Ive always passed it going through Hawthorne so we were excited to finally go.
We walked in, and its gonna have that “old” smell too it which it does. My brother and I start looking around, and everything is literally just trash compiled in boxes. Some things we’re just hard to pull out cause they were stuffed under 8 piles of clothes. It reeked of cigarettes and all the clothes we’re just dirty.
I get that its “vintage” but it really just was just old dirty clothes with no vintage feel to it. They should really get rid of the boxes and just do hangers. Super disappointed.

This place is a hidden gem!!! They have absolutely anything (vintage clothing related) that you could possibly think of. The staff is extremely helpful and the owner is super kind.

Reasonable prices for statement pieces. Lots of vintage stuff. Staff is always very relaxed but helpful. Wish I lived closer.

If you like digging in boxes for possible vintage clothing that this is your place. No air conditioning, I felt bad for the employees. Clothes are over priced and not at all very vintage. Worth the trip but never again. I find better items at church thrift stores!

This place smells like an old damp cellar and the clothes seem damp as well. The woman who owns it is so rude and unfriendly. No thanks
