It felt like discovering a hidden gem with each aisle I explored. The staff was friendly and helpful. If you're in the area, be sure to check out both locations on 1st Ave and 87th Street, as well as 2nd Ave and 89th Street. Support this local business, you never know what treasures you might find!”

“This is one of those places you wish you knew about earlier. I'm used to going to places where I have to kind of dig for what I like, but this place...seems to have something I like everywhere i look.
Tip, don't forget to look up and down, don't just stay at eye level. I found a hat I liked which was pretty high up and i'm glad I saw it.

You can tell the people who curate it know what they're doing and that they care - there are amazing brands, quality materials (at the moment - they just put out their fall collection- that includes a lot of cashmere!) You can get inspired by the products they have (I've learned about brands and types of jewelry) and even get ideas from the way they style their mannequins.

I didn't notice it consciously at first, but even the music they play in the store seems to have been chosen with care. I find myself dancing when I go in. That's the vibe i get in here - deliberate and careful curation done with heart.

The people who work here, at least every single person I interacted with, was very kind, friendly and down to earth. Just the right amount of friendly chatter, and no one ever made me feel pressured to buy anything - just made me feel at home and welcomed.

The pricing is extremely fair in my opinion, for the level of quality you're getting. I am trying to learn to manage my wardrobe, decluttering and whittling things down to favorites that I will wear for years, and I think some pieces I recently got here will be favorites for years to come. They're unique items, made of great materials with interesting design.

There is a downstairs where they have books, furniture and housewares like candelabras, espresso sets, that kind of thing. They do take donations.

This is one of my new favorite finds and it's for a worthy cause. I got on their mailing list to learn about events and sales they have. I sound like a salesperson but have no affiliation with them....I just appreciate this place and the people in it. The only 'negative' for me, is I wish it was closer to where I live but I will consider it a place to go when I need to get away. I've been twice and each time found/bought things I loved and have been on my wish list for a while. I'm glad I finally learned of this place; better late than never.”

“Very cute with interesting vintage items. A truly vast collection, valuable objects, especially clothing, watches, shoes and much more. In my opinion it is a small museum. It is one of the most beautiful places I have visited in the United States.”

“I‘ve been here today in the afternoon, had the best experience in here! amazing store, very nice and friendly shop owner as well as his friend that accompanied him. very great selection of jackets, jeans, y2k sweaters, just about everything you need for a vintage store. loved it and fully recommend it!”

“Small, but very nice and organized store. Nice selection of American sports apparel, mostly jerseys, jackets and tees. The owner is talkative and friendly without being pushy. Prices are on the steep side, but not more than what you’d pay for online. Lucky for me the store did a 50% sale on everything that day, so I ended up buying three cool pieces. Knicks + USA basketball. Will return!”

“i've been looking at a Dolce Gabbana leather jacket and i'm wondering why it has stripes on the sleeves, when others don't. Can someone answer this question please.”

“Really love this place. The prices are great and it's in a good location. I always find something I like. Today I got these great biker boots. It's affordable, ranging from $5 to about $50. My boots where $26 size 7. I also got a beautiful pink jacket/ coat like 2 weeks ago. If you spend some time and look around you will find gems.”

“Love this place, so happy I found it and that it’s in my neighborhood! It’s quickly become part of my weekend ritual (donating, picking up some great finds and my fave challenge of bringing in plastic bottles!) and I can’t stop telling friends about it. Thanks to all the staff for keeping it running ?”

“Found some amazing vintage clothes at a reasonable price. The place can feel a little overwhelming and get extremely packed. But it can be an explorative experience with friends to find goodies. They do charge a credit card fee, so bring cash if you don't want to pay that. They also sell bags to carry your purchase for $2, so bring your own in case you bought a haul of goodies.”

“Love this place. Lots of super-cheap clothes. My advice on how to shop is to make three or four rounds just to make sure you didn't miss anything. Friendly staff, good vibes here.Also, I thought it worth adding that I've been to plenty of bigger, chain resale shops in NY and NJ like Unique, 2nd Ave Thrift, and this place is better. It's clean, rotates stock, and is far more pleasant.”

“Me and my fiancé visited today and saw a typewriter for only $50! As a writer my eyes lit up once I saw it! The employees were so sweet and even tested it for us! We are 20 year olds from a very sad part of queens so we only came to window shop but no one judged or followed us! I’m so happy with my visit :)!”

“Great place. My sister's and I were looking for interview clothes and found some beautiful sleek black pants from guess and a button down white top. There clothes are affordable (some thrift shops are pricey). The lowest priced item I saw was $5 t shirts and highest was $50 pink coat I bought from DKNY.”

“This shop is a hidden gem!! I went to four other thrift stores before stumbling into this gold mine! I bought a beautiful pair of lamps, plus two sets of side tables I didn't know I was looking for until I saw them! They have high quality merchandise that is reasonably priced! The energy was sweet and welcoming! I love it there!”

“Love this location! Friendly staff, beautiful selection, and unique pieces. The store is small but intimate. Everything is hanging up on shelves or hanging properly on the racks. I prefer this store than the Buffalo Exchange next door.”

“The BEST place to get clean and beautiful bargains! The manager, Cathryn, doesn’t allow damaged or soiled goods. I’ve been donating to them and shopping in Cauz for Pawz since they opened and they have excellent prices and beautiful merchandise!”

“selection is definitely hit and miss like any consignment store. you can find some awesome designer items for great prices if you're patient and sift through everything/come back periodically. for example, i got an 100% cashmere brooks brothers peacoat in near perfect condition for $125 but have also walked out of here empty-handed many times. don't expect thrift store prices, but items are generally in better condition than other thrift stores in the neighborhood”

“I normally donate tons of expensive stuff here and the ladies working there are super nice. Today though (12/26/2023), there was a white older woman who was a witch! Mean and rude! I have never seen her there before but I hope to never see her again. If she is volunteering, she should just stay home and avoid working with people since she doesn't seem to know what customer friendly means. Super cranky and horrible attitude!”

“Great selection of clothing, home goods, and other miscellaneous items. They started to carry plants as well. Def a gem in the neighborhood with affordable prices!”

“do not expect real thrift store prices at this location. for example, a men's polo ralph lauren button down goes for about $35. that being said, their items are well-curated and include good brands like theory, DVF, emporio armani, etc. they are also consistently in good condition and support a great cause. shoe selection at this store is also exceptionally good in comparison to other locations - manolo blahnik, ferragamo and jimmy choo are regularly spotted here”

“I was expecting vintage clothing, but hardly anything here is over 10 years old, which is fine, just not my style. The prices are very fair and they do have a discount rack out front.”

“Spent 6 months of my life here...came out on the other side a changed man. I kicked booze & drugs , got my Drivers license back, social security card, NYC ID, Medicaid all taken care of over that time. Had medical procedure I had needed done for years accomplished. I became Born Again in Christ. I worked out every evening in their top flight gym including internet enhanced (NordicTrak Bikes,rowing machine,elliptical, and treadmill). Picked up good work habits as part of a wharehouse crew.This place is a hidden gem . Im writing this almost a year to the day of my first walking through those doors. I have a career now , my own place, and a life that I am proud of with plenty of opportunity going forward.Amen”

“I had a fantastic time shopping here last Thursday. I stumbled on the store while walking to a meeting from my hotel. This is the way I like to vintage-shop: curated, quality pieces in a range of prices. I like classic & quality items that will last a long time. The owner and an employee helped me find a gorgeous leather bag I needed for my computer and a cotton/linen dress from Italy. They were both so helpful and positive and made me feel welcome. I left feeling fabulous and wishing there were stores like this near where I live. I can't wait to come back the next time I'm in the city!”

“One of my favorite thrifting spots in the city! There's always amazing new stuff every time I go and the prices are extremely reasonable. They have a great combination of cute and casual as well as formal and high end designer things. 100% recommend checking this place out!”

“Store looks and is amazing. Only the best of the best clothes, suuuuper cool people working there, asking that im looking for and providing great offers. Service is amazing, a lot of really cool original stuff. Not the cheapest youll find in nyc, but you only find amazing products there, which is what you pay for. Its all original vintage, and they let me put stickers on their door. T shirts are like 20$ and sweaters 30$, i almost got cowboy boots which were only 40$. Can only recommend!!! + They had changing rooms, which could use soom hooks”

“99 Cent Stores were once prolific in the City but since the pandemic they are no longer that cheap. The majority of goods sold start at $1+. However, one item still costs the princely sum of 99 cents. The Dove Bar! I specifically asked the owner about it. There is a huge sign so one cannot miss it. I frequent this store quite often as there are many items that are far cheaper than at other shops. As one enters the rows are packed to the brim neatly and nicely. Baby wipes which cost now $1.79 are nicely priced as I buy five packets at a time to clean my apartment. Some medications like the A&D cream that comes in a tube costs under $2. Now this is a bargain. Bottles are nicely priced too and so are school supplies. Detergents can be expensive though. There is even a variety of packaged food items but I don't care for them. The owners are a kind couple.”

“Great cause & great space . Keep an eye out for cool furniture. Friendly welcome when you enter . We've loved this store and donate here often from our own retail biz . . But a couple months ago one tall slim fair haired male employee has been out right rude , More than once when asked for a form when donating . For manager, hopefully he's gone or was reprimanded”
