I wandered into 2nd St Thrift while walking up and down Washington Street in Hoboken. This isn't your typical thrift store. The store allows people to sell their clothing and other merchandise to them, which they then resell in the store. The store itself is clean and spread across two narrow floors, with changing rooms available if you want to try something on. One thing to know is that this place is definitely different from many of the traditional thrift stores. You'll find more trendy and higher-end clothing and merchandise here, and the prices reflect that. You're not likely to walk in and find a plain blue T-shirt for $3. That said, there are some unique items here, so if fashion is your thing, you might have fun browsing around. It's definitely worth wandering in if you're already walking along Washington Street and looking for something a little different read more

2nd Street in Hoboken is a great shop! Dillon, Mouloukou, Ray, and the rest of the staff make it a pleasure to visit. I've dealt with them as both a buyer and a seller, and I've had a great experience on both sides. You can find some great names here, and the music is always awesome. They've brought that vintage, fashion-forward East Village vibe to Hoboken, and I'm glad they're here. Definitely worth stopping by! read more

COUNT YOUR CASH BEFORE YOU LEAVE. Transgender employeee shorted me $10 on a $24 buy out ... walked out with $14 because I failed to count prior to leaving. The place is clearly an absolute scam and they are rude to boot. I hope he ends up in jail. read more

Amazing finds !! And super cool staff . This is my favorite 2nd st location . If you are selling get there early because they do cut off accepting goods read more

2nd STREET - Super fun finds - Thrift Stores Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

The window displays at this location are so hideously ugly. You guys need to stop hiring sally from north jersey and start hiring privanka from brooklyn cuz the displays do NOT make me want to come in lol. Its actually horrible. This is a designer store, why did the worker try to lowball me on my vintage 65th anniversary coach bag at $15? Are they demented? It literally has sold listings for $950 on ebay. When i said um guys this is coach they acted like it was michael kors from ross and had no idea coach bags are valuable. Dont hire ppl to price clothing who have never even heard of coach read more

I came here twice to shop. The items vary in price and selection. The first time I came here, I was asked if I needed help and I said I came here to buy a coat. The staff member showed me to sections, one with high end and one with low ends. I dont know how to take it but I was thankful. i truly wanted to buy a coat this time around and he was very helpful but the sizes were mostly XS, S, and M. Large were far and in between. So I came here a second time a month later and found my large coat for a decent price! read more

Has a reasonable range but very overpriced and staffed by the rudest people I ever met in retail.

People are mad their things aren't valuable. I sold here 3 designer items and got a good buyback. Items that TRR wouldn't take. They are nice and the stuff in there looked cute. read more

If you're expecting to make a lot of money for your valuable items, this is NOT your place. Don't expect a phone call, just make sure you come back before closing on that SAME day in order to receive any cash otherwise it gets donated and no payout. The store was a mess and it smelled like feet so my desire to spend any time there to shop was depleted. On the flipside, there was an abundance of merchandise to choose from, it just wasn't displayed properly with no rhyme or reason of placement in the store. read more

I was hopeful that the other reviews weren't true but I was proven wrong. No customer service, the employee was very rude and I immediately turned around and left. I walked up to the counter was asked what I brought in today so I replied "just one bag of women's clothing" and the employee then wanted me to list out what I brought. And then basically do their job for them, asking me to separate out the stuff they listed as what they could take. Instead of her just going through my one bag like a regular consignment store. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME. Just go to the 13th street Crossroads location! They are very nice there and will actually treat you like a human being! If I could give 2nd street a 0 I would. read more

The selection were so beautiful, I love everything about this store, the staff is amazing they're always look so iconic and treat everybody so nicely! The prices are great, you really get the feeling that you're buying good things. read more

Ridiculous policies. I brought clothes in, but was told they couldn't review them today. Instead, I have to pick them up or they'll donate them--no money, no exception. My ID was expired by two days, and they still refused to accept a different valid government-issued ID or even a photo of my renewed license. On top of that, the store was a mess and the employees were extremely slow. Don't go here unless a a waste of time read more

don't bother coming to sell your items - they offered me $26 for 3 large duffle bags worth of stuff I thought that was so much lower than Crossroads in the city. I took the same clothes on the same day to the crossroads in the city $275 is what they gave me. for shopping I'm not sure - but the staff is extremely rude like on a whole new level def do fit into the Hoboken culture. read more

don't go this store they sale to you fake bags as desighners.... very old bags they spray with lether spray and telling tou they are almost new. i took at home used one time all that spray goes a way.... and my duther boght little looks like desighners mini bag,after try returned thry didn't gave her sertificate... they told her that bag cust $8 , you didn't buy from here.... read more

Probably the worst 2nd street to come to jersey. They don't offer you anything and if so it's penny's of what the pieces are actually worth. If you can sell your coveted clothing anywhere else please do it you'll save time, energy, + frustration from trying to explain to prepubescent children that they've highly undervalued the pieces they're buying! Just go rebag or the RealReal. Not worth the wait for disappointment!!! read more

Actually flabbergasted at their buying model. At least places like Buffalo Exchange give you a % of what they are going to retail it at so you can have some context of their buying price. This place literally buys things for $1. They bought multiple dresses and tops brand (new with tags on) for ONE dollar. They bought accessories for 10 cents. I didn't even realize how robbed I was until after I already left and looked at the price break down receipt they gave me. Actually insane especially since it's not like things in their store are cheap....most things are between $20-$60+. Definitely just make the trek to the city to sell or try selling on poshmark before you come here. read more

today's experience was perhaps the worst one i've had with this location. i appreciate them accepting 2 out of my 4 items. however, they claim that they're not allowed to say if an item is fake or not due to store policy, but they were obviously insinuating that my other two items are not up to there standards and not authentic; which is blasphemy. one item was worn once and the other was never worn, yet they couldn't accept those 2 items due to their authentication app denying them. i'm not sure if they use the check app or some bad authentication app, but both of those items were legitimate as i have receipts for both of them and i would never sell them a fake item as it's a waste of both of our time. the cherry on top was when they added my carrying bag that i brought my items with as an item that i was selling when i told them explicitly that i'm selling items inside my bag. the coworkers were also being passive aggressive to me and it was honestly an embarrassing situation that makes me not want to go back. i'll be selling my items at the new york city locations as i used to before even thinking about going to the hoboken location. read more

Brought in two large bags of barely worn clothes. Including designer shoes in very good condition. Other brands including aritza, Bloomingdale's, Abercrombie etc. out of the two large bags they took 5 things totaling $18... one item was new with tags for $147.... Immediately took that back and gave up 3 items for $13. Staff was condensing when I mentioned the new with tags item and told me they look at resale value... yet they have edikted skirts listed for $20.... Id rather spend the time listing on Poshmark to make my actual money back somewhat... staff was not friendly nor helpful. A shame because they do have some cute pieces but it is outweighed by a lot of outdated brands and styles. Probably will never sell there again. read more

SELLERS BEWARE!!!! This place gave me $3 dollars for each brand new, designer clothing item, that I brought to them. They each had a tag and some were in original shipping packaging. The person knew they were ripping me off, and was shocked I didn't get mad and leave with my things. But I was so exhausted at the end of my day, I just said yes, and wanted to go home. This place is UNETHICAL to rip people off like this. They should be ashamed of themselves!! read more

bought great products here staff is amazing would recommend to anyone looking for good deals on designer clothing

I was really excited to visit this place. As I walked in, I spotted several pairs of fake sneakers for sale. That's a no for me. I don't even want to know what else they are selling in store that's fake. read more

Go sell elsewhere! Not only are they not trained to authenticate designer labels and items, they lose your items and then claim it was never brought in. They pass the buck and don't respond to your phone calls and emails. Managers promise to look into the matter and fail to resolve issues. They clearly do not want your business with this level of customer service. It was my first time selling with 2nd Street, and I only brought in a small sample to see what they look for and how much they offer - seriously, just don't waste your time. read more

These guys are so awesome!! I had such a fun shopping experience here The 2nd St. stores in the city can be so overwhelming, so I will def be coming for a mellow-er experience. read more

Was walking by outside and an item caught my eye and I was highly interested in purchasing. Walked in at 7:57PM even though they close at 8pm. They immediately shouted at us that they close at 8pm and there was a line of customers checking out at the register (2ppl). There were 4 girls standing at the register and as me and my friend both wanted to buy something they told us they closed the register and that they "would get fired if they made a sale." As a high-end children's luxury wear boutique owner I would never fault my employees for displaying excellent customer service and closing a sale. These employees, One girl with black long curly hair and the other with thinner straight dark hair, were aggressive and rude. Horrible customer service in my 15yrs of working in fashion I've never been treated this way and wouldn't keep the employee. They told us that the items would be there tomorrow when I said I had a flight in the morning. Go to the NY location wouldn't recommend this place. read more

please, don't bother coming here. I wasted a whole 2 hours wait and they did not even bother to text or check with me. some people travel from far away but they don't care apparently. read more

Fun place to shop. Not a great place to sell your clothing. The process is a bit convoluted, depending on which sales representative you're talking to. One representative said my items submitted for evaluation/pricing would be claimed by them if I didn't return that day, but another representative said I had 7 days to get back. Ultimately, the offered amounts were very low, so you're probably better off going elsewhere. The price I was offered was so low that I'd be better off donating the clothing to charity instead and taking the tax deduction. read more

do not sell here! they do not properly communicate with their customers. told me they would call in one hour with an update but called 3.5 hours later. when I couldn't come by after that timing, told me no money. i understand it's "company policy" but it was not communicated when I dropped stuff off. will never be coming back to shop or sell. read more
