You get your items donated. Then 90% of what your selling is priced way way higher then it should be. Yea there are a few deals in the store but most of your items are close to new cost or what vintage antique stores would ask.

ABSOLUTELY NO DONATION CENTER SHOULD CHARGE $600.00 for a used beat up dresser. These places are made to help people who can’t afford new furniture. This is absolutely horrendous to see these prices! These items are donated (free) to these places.it’s should be illegal for them to do that! We bought 3 pieces of brand new hand crafted furniture on Amazon for cheaper than ALL FURNITURE in this store!

I almost fainted when I checked out the price tags on dressers. Geeez, $400-$900 for banged up looking dressers? Is this some kind of joke? I thought, for a moment that perhaps the nine hundred dollars was meant to say ninety dollars, but nooooo. Other than that I like the store, lots of neat stuff at good prices. Maybe the person who prices the dressers has an obsession with dressers and just doesn't want anyone else to have them.

I rode my bike to here to shop for a few things. When I entered the store I expected to give my backpack to the clerk like I have had to every time I've shopped in this store. This time I was told not only would they not hold it for me, I was told I cannot have that backpack in the store. I promptly told them I'm on a bicycle, where am I supposed to put it? , to which the clerk replied "don't know what to tell you". Sound familiar, a branch from the "just doing my job" tree. If I'm not allowed to bring a bag to put my purchases in because I ride a bike, then I just won't shop here anymore.

St. V's is great! Good products, good prices, using funds to help many people, and creative in recycling materials that otherwise would add to the ground fill. This is my favorite place to give what we no longer use and to shop for things that others no longer use.

Their pricing structure makes no sense. Many things are priced at new/retail cost. Sometimes you can find a good deal. Buyer beware?

What the $&&@. The most expensive second hand junk I’ve ever seen.they should be shut down for trying to take advantage of poor people. If they need to increase revenue to help people they should look into lean processes, reducing overhead, and or renegotiating there contracts at a more reasonable rate.not shafting the consumer that’s either low income or someone wanting to support the cause. Example: someone drops of a end table from 1992, with obvious but minimal damage, that was once purchased for, let’s say 100 bucks.they used it for 20-30 years.now a employee gets it and carries it out o the showroom and slaps a 200$ price tag on it. So now every person that’s doesn’t have mental problem see it and thinks ; wow that’s an end table that I would have sold in a yard sale for 5 bucks.lol

I've been a thrift shopper and collector for many years. I've also found amazing goods at other Vinnie's locations. This store seems to be an unbelievable exception.

They have some good items, but they have pricing on the products here that compare to buying the same items new at even cheaper prices elsewhere.

I've never been in a thrift store and seen a $900.00 price tag on a bed, or $50.00 for a 10 year old non-HDTV and had someone suggest that they were selling for that elsewhere before.

Whoever is running this program forgot about the neighborhoods they're supposedly providing for and decided non-profit really means max profits on free stuff to funnel into the business and expand.

I'm not likely to return here again. I'm actually offended and I don't get offended by much, ever.

All the purses, good brands, were all under $$10 and most all were 50%and 25% off. That goes for shoes and clothes too. Everything I looked at was very reasonably priced.
I feel like the other reviews about high prices and them being ridiculous is actually not the brand new store but the one where west 11th turns one way at Garfield. Not the new.location beside the DHS office.

Very over priced! The old lactation on W Broadway was reasonable, but these prices are ridiculous for a thrift store.

I'm really disappointed in how expensive St. Vincent De Paul stores have become. They have turned into a glorified boutique compared to a place that used to be fun to go search for deals at. The items were donated and staff is pricing stuff out at full blown retail price on some of the vintage items. Also the deal that was struck with the company that does all the catalog photo shoots or whatever with all the demo furniture is just plain stupid.a million orange tags floating around the store that NEVER end up in the discount days rotation.

Yes, that is a sweater with a hole in it. Yes, that sweater has the manufacturer's label removed. Yes, that sweater has a $119.99 price tag on it. I am beyond appalled at how they price their clothes. I will not be donating anything to St. Vincent dePaul anytime soon if they are going to ask ridiculous prices like this. Wow.

This store was way over priced. A plastic kids hanging light $36.00.lamps 79.00. I'm sorry nothing that was donated to them for free should cost $80.00.

This afternoon, I visited Good Will and St. Vincent de Paul's warehouse looking for an item, namely the spacer for my pressure cooker pot. That ugly piece of aluminium that holds the food off the bottom of the pot to prevent scorching and burning.

They are out of their minds if they think people want to pay $1000 for a USED couch that has different colored cushions! This used to be my favorite place to shop for inexpensive household items but I will never return. They get these items for FREE. I guarantee their overhead isn't that high to justify these absorbent prices.and no public restrooms? That's the fastest way for me to leave on a hurry. It's hot outside and in the warehouse, if you hydrate, you'll need to use a restroom eventually. Terrible what this place has become.

Low price furniture caveat emptor so values are to be had, some things loose & wobbly others not so much.

Not sure what happened but the prices of everything went way up. I can find things cheaper on Craigslist. If your looking for bargains I don't think St, Vinnie's is the place anymore. Sorry to see you go.

Big warehouse full of furniture, most of which is overpriced for thrift store market. Interesting selection of vinyl as well. Worth a look.
