Not much good stuff, prices can be a lot depending on the item because they want to squeeze the most value out of it

Called to inquire about donating a piece of furniture, was told to send photos to a different number. Sent photos to that number and got told to bring it there during a specific time frame. I load it into the car and drive it all the way there only for them to look at it and say they won’t take it. It was a nice piece of furniture with some very minor scuff marks on the bottom and if they didn’t want it they shouldn’t have told me to bring it. Don’t waste your time trying to donate anything here.

Found an awesome big collage picture frame which was better quality than I can find anywhere in existance and carried it the whole time looking through the store. Get to the counter and find out that its the only thing in the store to ever NOT have a price on it and they feeaked out. Apparently they will NOT under any circumstance sell anything which does not have a price even when offered over the highest price they said it could have been. Waited for them to message the owner and didnt get a response. I live halfway across the country and am definitely not going back for this. Dont hire people at a thrift store that have no idea how to make a simple desision like this. The thing was only about $10 but would not even take $20. Once again another store that is just a waste of time to even go into just like all the big stores, now even crappy thrift stores are not worth even going in and you really should just close down because no one needs businesses like yours.

Worst place ever.
The Manager is super rude !!!!
Not even sure how this place is even still operating.
I went by yesterday asked for the price of an item without the tag and I left because I didn’t have enough money with me. I went back today and the manager gave me another price I told her what I was told yesterday and her answer was “that’s yesterday’s price”.. even though the person I spoke about it yesterday consulted the price with her before giving me and answer
I walked out and told her ok !!!
Didn’t get the item and I would never go back ever again.

This place is so expensive. I went here to look at frames to buy and they were all way too much for thrift store items. Take my picture as an example, they’re giving me the pleasure of spending $3 more than the person that originally bought it from HomeGoods. No thank you.I was really looking forward to trying to find some good thrift stores in the area, definitely will not be coming back .

The employee was a little rude when she showed me the entrance to the second floor, I couldn't see the name. Even though I always make donations, I hope I never go back to that place again.

I wanted to donate a dining room table with chairs. Yes there were stains on chairs which I was going to take care of but then they were charging me $50.00 to drop it off! He was so rude! He stated “remember!, we have overhead!” WTH!!

This was my go-to for secondhand clothing, housewares. Back in the 70s I took a pledge to myself to shop secondhand 1st due to the environmental impact on our planet I saw happening even back then. I'd always spend quite a bit, getting gifts for friends less fortunate as well as for ourselves & home. When they reopened after lockdown, their prices skyrocketed & I won't pay overinflated prices for secondhand (hence why Goodwill lost my biz many years ago). Example: pre-lockdown there was a set of vintage Czech lustreware canisters (not a complete set btw) originally on the floor for around $8-$15. Every canister was chipped, cracked, unusable. I'd seen it there every time I went for about 4 months in a row, literally never moved from its spot. Post lockdown it was in the locked case w/ an insane price- bet it's still there as not even a collector would pay that price for something so damaged as they're quite plentiful in great condition! I understand people lost $ during lockdown, many had to raise prices but this was not an item anyone wanted at the lower price! What kind of logic is it to make the price higher? I've owned & run flea market & retail stores, this isn't how to move merchandise & they have far too much but it's all been raised to ridiculous prices so it's sitting. Another example: low end brand jeans priced higher than a high end brand on sale at Saks, what??? I'm all for keeping things out of landfills, upcycling, reupholstering, refinishing, mending, whatever needs to be done but not when at premium prices for things not in premium condition. They won't be getting anymore donations either, if this is their new policy. It's quite sad as it used to be a great place to find little useful odds & ends but no more. Oh & the man who works there is rude, unhelpful- I fainted last visit, no air, super hot day & masking, he never even looked up when I asked if I could sit so I didn't faint, I left once I could get off the floor (I'm handicapped, use a cane);. However the women are lovely, always smiling & happy to help- at least it's got that still (I think). I don't believe I'll be returning unless they realise the error of making secondhand unaffordable so that buying new is cheaper. Grave mistake on their part as it'll all sit there now, nothing going to help people in Westchester County who really need it sadly more than ever.

The prices went from reasonable to outrageous. You might as well buy your items new. The place is also too cluttered.

Donna Simone made our task of donating furniture, textiles and kitchen contents from our late mother's home (half a mile away from YLIA!) much more difficult than it should have been. We hired a junk removal company to take everything that did not meet YLIA's criteria, and tried to donate the items which clearly met their criteria. I scheduled an advance appointment for her to "screen" everything, and she scheduled a pickup. Then, with only 24 hours warning, she demanded money to pick things up. We politely declined and told her we'd deliver (despite not really been capable of moving furniture). We arrived hours later with three SUV's filled with the furniture and she told us it wasn't a convenient day!! We prevailed, but with no help from YLIA volunteers. Beware!!
