The girl didn't even look inside my box of clothes that I was trying to sell. She was also really rude to me. She literally said, "we're being very selective." And looked at me. I asked if she was going to look into my box of clothes and she mentioned she "could". If she even acknowledged or wanted to check out the clothes she would've opened the box. Then she proceed to just look into the bottom and said, "none of this works." I told her to pull the pieces out one by one and she will see designer brands that they carry and want. She didn't

Im rating it a 1 because their selling process is very vague. I went in took two bags and they wanted to give me 10 cents per item. They said that it was because it wasnt designer. I had two Nike items a long sleeve shirt and a tank, an addidas sweater and other clothes that were fast fashion, maybe a couple vintage. But 10 cents might as well donate it. Your better off going to Platos or crossroads. You can at least get $3-5 per shirt. I dont recommend. Waste of time. Really disappointed especially when most resell places give you percentages like 30% for what they price. But they

Unfortunately, doing business here was a disappointing experience overall, and you should come in knowing they're going to take advantage of you. Of course you shouldn't expect to make a mint at these places, but when you see how much they mark up - then sell - your items, you'll wish you went somewhere else. Or better yet, donated them to a charity thrift store so at least the money would go to a good cause. When I came in to sell several nice handbags (authentic Kate Spade, gently used, leather - pics below), the staffer handling the buy took less than 10 mins to "assess

I've sold here about 4 times and make the trip out to Pasadena because I know they'll take whatever low quality items I give them. I do not shop here because I know the quality of items they buy. My last trip here solidified that I won't be making the trip out anymore, as the cashier was incredibly rude and I can't remember a time I had a positive or friendly experience with any of the buyers here. This past selling session I got $8 total for approximately 12 items. Their prices are also ridiculous for the quality of items they carry. Although Crossroads down the street is more

No disposable masks available and hostile at the door about it. All other businesses have masks available, and they don't. Don't care to have customers apparently.

So overpriced and inept rude workers. Not a good combo. I would not return here or recommend it to others. It's just got the typical lazy elitist attitude. For $50 used t-shirts that they purchase for a dollar or two you'd think they would be more grateful to the suckers buying them. My kids going to have to get over it but honestly even my chill 16 year old seemed annoyed by these folks especially the manager.

The best 2nd hand high end boutique around! They have great items at fair prices and they do not screw you when you sell them items. I sold them some shoes and I came out with a nice chunk of change! They r very very fair and don't make u feel like you got hustled. Employees are nice, professional and helpful.
