Whoever is pricing these items are insane better off going to another thrift store or offer up for example a used Fresno state shirt that looked old was 10 dollars

Amazing finds, tremendous amount of stuff to see every time you walk in, but the prices are ridiculous.

I’ve always enjoyed thrift stores. I tell friends, “if you know your best colors and styles; as well as brand names and buying only clothes that are new or neatly new>> you can find great buys at Mission Thrift.
Plus, their staff is not only friendly but also very helpful. They have a lot of inventory, but yes… you need to take your time. Your not at Banana Republic, Anthropologie or Macy’s, but it’s always exciting for me to come home with something stylish that looks really good on me.and I bought it for $6. To 9.99>> trying doing that in the original stores where the clothes were purchased.
Definitely one of the best thrift stores in Fresno!

I purchased $35 shoes and after 5 minutes and before I leave the shop I found another shoes $55, I requested the cashier to replace it & pay the remain amount but he said it’s final sale as per the policy, so what kind of policy made the Thrift losing extra money & the customer still in the store and only 5 minutes from first purchasing!?

This place is more expensive than home goods! Even though everything is used, beaten and donated. Save your money and go buy something new and cheaper

Update: Prices are MIND-BLOWING high!

The store has great product however it's mostly overpriced. One thing I do not like about this business is that they do "Silent Auctions. " However, the store is always the first bid with a ridiculous start price. I don't participate in them for this reason because the customers should be the ones to set the start price. They also sell replica products like Louis Vuitton, which is completely illegal! You can not sell counterfeit products in America.

The team members were very helpful and appreciative of our donations. One of the team members shared how Mission Thrift has helped many homeless people I the city because of the generous donations from the community.

Bought a car from here 2 weeks ago and the car broke down less than a week later with me and my daughter in it.they refused to return my money. I saved for months and had to borrow money to buy this car and I'm left with nothing. This place is supposed to be run by church people and they had no mercy on me or my family. Wouldn't recommend this place to no one ever!

Don’t ever go to this place to get a car paid 3800 for a car they don’t let you test drive them and they act like it’s nothing wrong with the car drove the car home and literally the engine locked up Like honestly be honest with people don’t try to get over on people

Usually stores will put found items in lost and found for customers to come back and claim, but not mission thrift.
Nope. Straight to the sales floor with my prescription medical device (braces) I accidentally left behind when trying on clothes.
Did not even return my phone calls when inquiring about them.
Found them in a bin along with a bunch of adult diapers the following day after looking for them myself.

Not sure if they’re trying to be a thrift store or an antique shop, they’re both two different things. Prices are high and sometimes even ridiculous for a thrift store. Only leftover or unsellable junk at thrift prices. Even those are priced at stupidly prices sometimes.

Fresno Rescue Mission used to be one of my favorite thrift stores to shop, but due to the recent price hikes, I no longer enjoy enjoy shopping here. While proceeds do go to help those in need, their high pricing makes shopping here not affordable.

I use to love this place but prices have gone up dramatically. I bought a t shirt for $6 and was charged almost $20, staff was rude and refused to fix it, coulda bought it brand new for cheaper! Save your time and money by shopping elsewhere.

Ridiculously over priced used items.you can buy the same items brand new at the same price if not cheaper the way they are pricing their items.everyone needs to stop shopping here and stop donating their items to this business.

This used to be the best thrift store in town. Now they are RIDICULOUSLY overpriced. SO disappointed to see yet another thrift store prioritize profit over “mission. ”

Their boutique section now takes up a large portion of the store, which included overpriced target brand clothing and grandma brands. All Levi’s (not even the collectible kind) $25. Used smelly shoes $9-$15 a pair. They now individually price baby clothing around $5 each when it used to be $10 for a grocery bag full. Outrageous. May as well sell their goods (that people generously donated and they didn’t have to ask for) on eBay— the prices are the same. Not to mention that they now use a stapler to attach price tags to items— leaving two gaping holes in the fabric of all their items. Wooden furniture and couches sitting in the parking lot uncovered in the rain, still asking full price.

They updated their register systems and all employees wear uniform company polos, but at what cost to the community members who need a reliable and affordable thrift store just to survive? Sorry that I donated my clothes here last week. Truly shameful.

The pricing in the store is absolutely outrageous now. I don't know who has changed things but they need to be fired.used flannels and dresses going for up to $30. Used shoes for $25. I understand the prices are going up everywhere but these are donated items and I thought the whole purpose of thrift stores was to get things affordable so that you could clothe and furnish your home. I understand there's flippers out there but there's also people who just need items affordable. Shame on mission thrift for doing this. The fact that they have a parking lot full of items getting ruined in the rain and they want to charge these prices is bad management.

Items are going up in price like there is no tomorrow. We get it they have to make a profit but literally selling something used and dingy like its brand new. Also the amount of items on the floor that are "Not For Sale" makes no sence. Some staff are super sweet and kind while others are petty and rude. I am sure they will begin to lose customers because of the price inflation. This might just be my last time coming here.

This isn’t a thrift store anymore. Prices are no longer “thrift store” prices.
Save your time and money and go to any other thrift store in town. I’m disappointed as I have shopped here for years and someone seems to have gotten greedy with the 100% donated items. Sad.
