Prices are kind of high for old, dirty fans and other electronic items. Computers are over priced. Can get them on eBay better specs for half the price. Selling old beat up Teflon pans where the non stick is flaking. Non stick coating is toxic when ingested and selling these pans is bad because if someone doesn't understand this. Prices high on furniture that belongs in a dump. Only reason I go in is for cheap movies on vhs and DVDs.

They are going downhill unfortunately, used to be my favorite place to go thrifting...not really anymore. My most recent visit I asked the cashier to pop a couple of the movies open (they are taped closed) just because I have bought so many scratched ones and was hoping to just make sure they werent scratched. The cashier assured me I was wrong...saying the tape symbolizes they have been checked. Offering to open one to prove me wrong. Which rubbed me the wrong way so I decided to offer to put them back. On top of the most recent interaction I have noticed their prices skyrocketing. With thrifty shopper and the other reuse center down town, I'd say pass on this store and go to the others. Really disappointing, I used to recommend this one to everyone I knew. If you don't mind a drive, I've had the best luck at the thrifty shopper in cortland!

Had a recent problem there that needed Manager attention. Tried to call her 2 times having to leave a message. She never got back to me. I consider this terrible customer service and no person should have her position if they can't make a simple return call. It's not doing part of their job. And if you won't do part of your job you should be fired

This place is okay, as far as thrift stores go. The prices aren't bad and they carry a large variety of stuff. They seem to rotate through items pretty often, so there's always different stuff to look at.I mainly go there for the clothing. I have a more retro style and can often find stuff that fits my aesthetic. If you're into more modern stuff, you won't find much as most of their items are at least 20 years old.I occasionally browse the home items and décor but its very hit or miss. You have to search through aisle of junk to find the rare gem. Their furniture is very outdated and worn down- not really worth your time in my opinion.The staff all seem to hate their jobs and aren't very pleasant. They seem to be majorly inconvenienced by having to ring out your purchases and just glare at you silently the entire time. I get that most people don't enjoy doing customer service though, so I can't blame them.My main issues with this place is how dirty it is. I'm not sure if they wash the clothes before they put them out, but I have found pieces that have crusted food on them, stains, or the occasional dirty shoe print. They also often smell funny, but that could just be because they're older clothes. The other items definitely don't get cleaned. I always leave with my hands feeling grimy.Overall, this place is far from my favorite thrift store, but it's not the worst I've been to. Something about it keeps me coming in, despite its issues.

Over priced for donated goods, many items are cheaper brand new or cheaper elsewhere. Reuse is a scam like all thrift stores, they are selling you donated used items for profit. It's worth $1 and they sell it for $4, The items aren't tested or sanitized. They aren't helping anyone but themselves. Don't get me started on Thrifty shopper or the Salvation Army.

I have to agree with the last review (by Sync Positive). This place used to be much better, but over the last six months or so it has really fallen. I visit regularly and it used to be rare that I left without buying multiple items. Now it's rare to find anything at all worth buying at the price they're asking and I usually leave empty-handed.There is now very little turnover of the stuff on the shelves. I imagine slow donations are part of it (and can't really blame them for that), but the quality control and pricing is getting a bit ridiculous. It used to be that things were priced reasonably for used items and would often go at the full asking price, while most of the rest would sell once discounted by 25%, then 50%, and finally 75%. Now there are so many items that are priced so high for what they are worth that they still are overpriced by the time they are 75% off.On a lot of items, they seem to be checking eBay and pricing items based on the higher end of what sellers there are asking rather than looking at the average price they actually *sell* for on eBay. (Like the sad group of Beanie Babies that have been there for weeks at a starting price of $50 even though you can buy the same new set on eBay for under $10).Then there is the quality control. There are so many items that seem to be priced reasonably (still not cheap, but reasonable) until you realize that they are damaged. Bowls with chips, figures missing hands, games missing integral pieces. I don't know if they don't realize they are damaged or if they don't know how much the damage lowers the value of the items, but either way, something is off with the pricing.I don't get why things seem to be so much different at the downtown location - there, pricing can be a little inconsistent, but you can usually still find a lot of good deals.Hopefully, they turn things around again, because their goals are admirable and they had things working better in the past.

Lol this used to be a good spot for finding reasonable prices on used stuff. Something changed and now prices are way jacked up. Like it’s actually cheaper to buy new. Shame.

Awesome thrift shop to skim through. We try to go once a month or so to see what's new. Like any thrift store, the selection is hit or miss but, I can't believe people would really complain about that. They can only sell what they are provided. We've found a lot of cool gems here over the years and I like that they support the community in various ways. Happy to shop and donate here.
