Plato’s Closet

I was curious about this store and just walked in it one day. This is apparently like a thrift store, except they’ve got a lot more stuff than your average «Goodwill» or a general thrift store. I scored a Dooney and Bourke purse for $ 25! Classic and I can carry it without having to be overly protective about it. When I found this purse, I had to secure it safely in my arms because another lady saw what I had found and started following me around the store until I finally purchased it and walked out, lol. :D You can also sell your used stuff back to them and they will pay you a price for it. I’ve been wanting to clean out my closet and try it. When I do, I’ll write another review about it. Have fun!

I love getting a great deal on gently used clothing. Whenever I can’t find a good deal on the Internet, I drive over to this Plato’s Closet location to scoop out what they have on their racks!
The term «gently used» is debatable here. The Plato’s Closet chain, in general, can sometimes have racks and racks full of very «not so gently used» clothes, especially tops. This location is no exception. I come across a lot of pilled sweaters and thread bare shirts in the racks. However, the jeans are usually all in great shape, as are the jackets and outerwear.
However, the prices are so low that I can look past most of the clothes that are falling apart. I can usually find many (!) top quality brand name clothes for 75%-80% off what I would pay for at the mall! It takes a little searching, but it’s worth it!
Speaking of searching, this location has the tendency to waaaay overfill some of their racks. It’s almost impossible to even see the clothes or pull the hangers off the racks when they’re that over full! It can be a little frustrating.
The staff is super nice here. There’s always someone ready to ring you up or offer to take the clothes you’re interested in and hold them in a bin for you behind the register until you’re ready to check out.
Overall, I really like this Plato’s location! I just wish the quality of their garments was a little better, and the racks were a little more manageable for shoppers.
