      I've never stepped into a thrift shop boasting such a diverse array of immaculate offerings, from clothing and housewares to vintage furs, art, furniture, appliances, computers, cameras, jewelry, and every imaginable style of attire from wedding gowns to workout gear. The prices are unbelievably low, and the staff are not only delightful and helpful but also offer donation pick-up services, with drop-offs accepted at the back. This establishment became a lifeline for me after experiencing a devastating robbery that left me with almost nothing. It's truly the most remarkable hidden gem I've discovered in LA.

      I came here to visit the town and it was a fun place to stop and shop at! Parking is limited because Bev-Mo is next door but I found a spot!
      The place is small but has some really cool things.
      They have name brand clothing with new tags still on them. A lot of good books, brand new candles and items. I spent under 20 bucks and will come back again! I want to compliment the cashier named "Ricardo" he was very nice and wrapped all my glass items with paper and placed them gently in the bag so I wouldn't break them for my long trip home. Ricardo was very hard working and getting the lines down! I will return back to this store for more great items. The other staff were real nice and hard working helping customers put items in there cars and especially the elderly ones! I give them high recommendations and have something for everyone!

      Nothing good ever shows up here and is severely overpriced. I found some floppy disks for my Macintosh computer and went to ask how much they were because they didn't have any sort of price tag on them and weren't banded together. Cashier took it to the manager who said they were $1.99 each. There were 9 of them so it would've been nearly $20 for the whole thing. Me and the cashier eyed each other and I think we both agreed that pricing was ludicrous. As I was walking out the manager called me and offered 99 cents each. Still too much. Savers would've priced a box of a hundred of these for $5.

      As we were walking out on the sidewalk, some lady tried to yell at us saying they had a better offer. I kindly told them no as I was walking away. They are DESPERATE to make a sale, and in no way is this place a thrift store. I recommend the one in Venice more as they price there stuff better and the manager is a lot nicer there.

      The service here is hit or miss. I observed a clear preference for their more regular customers over me. The selection is interesting, you can get some high end items here but don't expect a bargain, the prices are comparable to vintage clothing stores or antique shops because I suspect they check everything through what it sold on eBay.

      STRANGE VIBE. Literally acted like they've never seen a black person before. Came in and bought 5 leather duffle bags for $44. Spent no more than 5 minutes in there because people were staring at me like I had an attitude, like I was invading their space and their place of work. Anyways I hope they have a smooth day.

      The store sometimes has amazing finds and good deals. There's tons of houseware goods to choose from. The selection of clothing is limited. I found some good finds in shoes at this location. However, the Sharpie marker the store uses to put the prices on the bottom of shoes doesn't come out. I don't need everyone to know that my shoes are from a thrift store. The employees seem to hate their job and don't want to be bothered. They really hate me because I always want to look at everything in the glass case. The quality of customer service is the reason for the downgrade in stars.

      This place is awesome! I'm not sure why they don't have good reviews but the prices are great here and found really great items. I found a Zara leather jacket, Zara high waisted shorts and a Zara jacket. Yes! It was a Zara day! They had a few items with the tag still on. There was a lot of people in this tiny little thrift store on a Saturday afternoon. Great find.

      Lots of great stuff here, some $$ brands. Staff is friendly and helpful. I was able to find a really nice pair of pants, would have gotten shoes but too snug. Worth a visit

      Reasonably priced items for sale in thrift shop quality condition. A variety of clothing, household items, electronics, furniture. The shop supports many viable jewish causes especially for underprivileged people and families. They accept donations with discretion knowing they value the customers shopping there are worthy of valued items. One of the best thrift shop chains in LA.

      From a buyer perspective, this place prices items slightly below stores like Marshall's/TJ Max, but it's still definitely not on the cheap side for a thrift store. The prices are actually a bit strange (ASOS plain tee for $15 but Banana Republic silk blouse for $10?) and a lot of items don't have the price tags, which means the ladies at the cashier throw out a number that seems reasonable to them.

      The clothes are organized by type and whether it's "designer." The non-designer racks also have designer items and brands like Aeropostale and Asos are sorted under designer, so so guess the term is used loosely. I think a lot of 'non designer' pieces are overpriced considering 100% polyester Forever 21 clothes are still at $8-12.

      The shoe racks are a mess because like the clothes, they aren't sorted by size. Unlike clothes though, I find it much more of a hassle to sort through shoes-- especially cause the area is pretty cramped.

      tl;dr worth a visit if you're nearby, but don't expect steals or organization

      The prices are all over the place
