i was pleasantly surprised by the amount of good finds at this store!! i came in while exploring the 2nd street area, and i left with 5 items already lol - skirts, tops, and a thick calvin klein wool coat. if you look thoroughly, you can find items that are definitely decently priced and good quality. they have a really good variety and are separated in categories by style - y2k, streetwear, vintage, etc. this categorization made it so easy to shop so it's not too overstimulating, and they have a great selection in general. another great thing about this place is their fittings rooms - the lighting is nice and bright (which is such a big factor in me buying the item or not), and their mirrors are big and don't distort me at all, so i can actually get a feel of what the item would look like on me irl. the staff are chill and friendly. read more

I would not sell anything here as they will rip you off and I would not buy anything either cause it will be poor condition or possibly fake. I get it- rent is expensive on 2nd street and thrift shops are awesome but IDK this place doesn't seem to know how to buy/sell luxury goods. They offer the same prices for trash as mint condition stuff it seems and most of the their shelves are filled with trash. If you have a bag of trash/worn clothing you might alright cause you would get more than donating it but if you have anything good/mint I would try somewhere else. It's just they don't seem to know the difference between something in good/bad condition which is everything. Perhaps it's the "worn look" trend. read more

Don't waste your time selling here. Everything I brought in was new with tags all current styles. They wanted to buy a ton of stuff but offered .10 cents for a bunch of the items. Don't waste your time selling. I would only go to shop. read more

If you're looking for a great selection of vintage clothes in Belmont Shores, this is the place to go. What they offer is a vast selection of clothing. They offer men's, women's, and children clothing via a very interesting and vast selection. This store is very well organized. Things are put in appropriate categories, and everything is easy to find. One of the main things I love about this shop is the collection of shoes that they offer for sale. They sell some really great and truly unique shoes. On my recent visits to the shop, what I really enjoyed is they offer a lot of (for lack of a better term) psychedelic tennis shoes. Really interesting high colored items. The shoes they sell all come from very good brands, and are really unique items to own. A lot of fun! In terms of pricing, it's very fair. One of the main reasons that it's fair is because what you're getting here is the best of the best of vintage. It's not like going into a thrift shop where maybe we'll find something and maybe you won't. And, a lot of what they offer is not very high-quality. When you come into 2nd Street, however, you're assured of finding really good, very high-quality items. Overall, this is a great shop if you're searching for that truly unique and special vintage piece of clothing. read more

2nd Street Long Beach is a consignment store that buys and sells used clothing, shoes, and accessories. The store is small but organized and has a good layout to browse. Most of the accessories and shoes were in poor condition compared to the price. There were some vintage designer bags on the wall which were in good condition and priced well. The clothing selection was great and very reasonably priced. I visited this location and tried to sell three designer handbags, the price they quoted me was laughable give the condition of my items. I ended up selling the items on Facebook for 3x their buyout amount. It also took almost 1 hour for them to provide a quote, which I thought was ridiculous give the store was not busy. read more

It's the former Gap spot on the fame second street in the heart of Belmont shores. It's a smaller store compared to some of the other sister's location. But they do have a good selection of clothing and shoes. The accessories, sunglasses, wallets, handbags are nice. Not a big selection on the higher tickets items but they do have a good selection. Isles are quite nice and big so there's room for people without bumping into one another. It's also very neat and organized which is a major plus. That helps with the shopping and finding where things are located. Some items are priced very well while some, you look at and wonder how could it be this much. There's security right at the front door. Overall, it's a pretty nice store. Not overly big but do carry a wide selection of items. Plus, they buy items as well. read more

the kids that works here are so wack. bunch of wannabe fashion jabronies. clothing selection also sucks pretty bad. don't ever bother selling here, the pay out is terrible read more

Came for the shopping, some of the prices are good, it's funny to see the same pair of jeans for different prices, though. Some staff are friendly and some act like they can't be bothered but overall a good shopping experience. I will say everything is clean and well-organized! read more

Came to shop today, I'm potty training a toddler and the needed to take her to the bathroom right away. The staff refused and suggested we use it somewhere else. It's incredibly rude to want people to patronize your business but not show your customers any type of human decency. Definitely disappointed with the customer service experience read more

2nd Street - Long Beach - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Long Beach, California

Y'all. This store is consistently carrying clothes in poor condition, that are poor quality or incredibly out of style. It's evident that they aren't even able to sell the clothes that they currently have in stock because I see the same stuff there over months. I'm not even sure why I keep going back considering their selection for anyone size 10 and up is nearly zero. I brought in 3 big bud press items, 2 fashion brand company items, 3 pairs of shoes and a couple shorts and skirts. They took 7 items and were going to pay me $33. I took my clothes back. The most frustrating thing about all of this is that there is currently a cou cou baby tee being sold there for $49 and the retail price is $53. They are charging an egregious amount for clothes and paying sellers literally $3 a piece for $190 clothing. Also, be ready to wait 2 hours for your clothes to be looked at. read more

two tops for 30$ ur joking that's actually so funny cause what. wayy too overpriced it's a thrift store people ur selling dead relative wear and people's bedroom rags- we lost the plot here. Anyways- over 100$ for 4 pieces of used clothing oh confused! Scared even read more

I brought in free people, lucky brand and other items. They offered me $6 for three items total. Looking back, probably was not a great deal. Would not recommend selling here. read more

They had a pair of my Lanvins and a Gucci belt and said I didn't come in with it. They had to pull the cameras to figure out their mistake. If I didn't remember my Gucci belt, they would have kept my items without giving me compensation for them. Talking about it was a mixup. Make sure you take a picture of all your items before having them take them. read more

5/29/23 Cursory glance at the grand opening of this shop...and I'm not impressed at the prices. Since it's newly opened, it has to keep at appearances & the inventory looks great. I wish I had taken a photo of the top shirt/dress hangin on the wall that holes (part of the design) that is priced at $199.00. Some brand shoes were for$180, gently used or not...I'm not buying it lol. The glass case full of purses, love the variety, prices? Meh. Perhaps when I have more time to browse & see what I like, maybe it'll grow on me. For now I'm sticking to Discovery a few doors down read more

To be fair, I never sold any of my shoes to store that sells your items like Plato's closet and like this one. But I came in to try and sell my 3 pairs of nike dunks in a fair condition. You will not believe what they appraised me for ONE shoe. A whopping $4. Not $10 or anything... 4 whole dollars. Honestly that was humiliating and embarrassing at that point just don't even offer. I get it they look into if it's trending and the condition of the item but like what? Seriously for one pair of shoe? This is ridiculous, this is store is a joke. Anyways clothes in there are not affordable considering they are more high end items but if you're into that, it's a great stop to get a good bargain on designer items. Don't try to come here if you want to try and sell your items, they will most likely offer you a price that will make you feel embarrassed like I did. Emily was the one who helped us and told us it would take around 30 minutes and they were really fast and called to let me know my order is ready. Staff were nice but geez the offer was not good at all. read more

Happy Earth Day! I had an amazing time shopping here this weekend. This was my first time checking out a 2nd Street shop and I really liked it. ***LOCATION*** As the name suggests, this is on 2nd Street (and Granada Ave). It's near a lot of other popular local bizs in town. ***EXPERIENCE*** We spent about an hour looking at everything in this thrift store. There is a huge selection! You can find everything from clothes to shoes and accessories. I tried on 10 different things and went home with three gorgeous items. I love thrifting in cities I'm not normally in because you find some unique pieces. I got a dreamy dress and two unique tops. This shop seems fairly divided for Men and Women clothing. My two friends went home with some things too. There is a fitting room and they only allow five items at a time. The people who helped me at the fitting room were nice. ***PRICE*** Things range from $7 to $600+ here. The cheapest things I found were $7. They offer a lot of designer goods so that's why some things are really pricey. Things are priced with imperfections in mind. Most of the things I was considering to take home weren't name brand and ranged from $20-35. ***CONCLUSION*** I highly recommend checking out this thrift store. If you're looking for vintage designer goods this is a good place to start. They also have a wonderful selection of normal used clothes. read more

Really disappointing customer service. I waited in line for the fitting room for five minutes before anyone even acknowledged me. Staff were unprofessional and rushed -- constantly reminding customers how many minutes were left like we were being timed (not to bring up race, i just don't have anyones names. it was the black security guard & small asian woman employee) While I was getting dressed to leave the fitting room, the security guard actually started yelling at me, insisting he had told me how much time I had left -- as if that excused the behavior. Overall, the whole experience felt rushed, uncomfortable, and completely unprofessional. It was clear no one wanted to be there or help, despite us arriving well before closing time. read more

Literally THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE ever. I cannot explain how upset am I that the guy with mustache was rude, disrespectful, like extremely mean and waisted 2 hours of my time . I went in there twice , first time was an ok experience, but second time....not only I waisted 2 hours of my life , to be called " overweight" and be disrespected like that. He told me not to come back , when I did nothing but was nice and polite until he said that I'm way too overweight and he doesn't want to sell me anything! This was crazy. I'm crying in my car because of all the disrespect I went through today. Please avoid this tire at any cost and if you do end up there, try not to talk to the guy w mustache! read more

Fave store for wandering aroud and exploring a new style. So much variety and not too expensive!

Brought in a gang of clothes everything resell value was vintage high quality leather. original clothing from the 70s & 80s. They didn't even LOOK in my bag and evaluate any of it they just called and said none of it they're gonna buy. The people in here are very lazy. They won't bother to really look into the quality of the stuff you thing if they even bother to look at it anyway. They hiring some smoked out individuals that can't even do some googling into manufacturers or styles and era that are worth buying. It's all tik tok fashion there fr read more

My husband and I went to sell his shoes. Out of 40 pairs of shoes they took one. They claimed my husband's Nike sneakers didn't "match their aesthetic." Sure. What I found to be most interesting was that as we walked out of the store, two people who were walking into the store to shop stopped us. They were shocked the store only bought one pair of shoes...and then proceeded to buy four pairs. The store cut themselves out of the deal and their customers bought directly from my husband. Worked out! read more

Seller experience = HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA The audacity to offer me 10¢ for new items with tags is laughable. They're basically asking for donations but can't take things for free because of the way their business is set up, so instead of offering 1¢, they're generous enough to give you a whole dime. It's a joke. 2 stars cause the employees were nice. 0 stars for the value of the sell. Find a Buffalo Exchange or just wait it out on Poshmark. I know Buffalo would have given me at least $50 for what I sold. I got $9 for a bin full of shoes and clothes... Better yet, donate it to someone in need who will appreciate your things. read more

easy way to make some money and they price pretty well. i shouldve asked to see what they bought because i lowk had a lot of items and theyre not named in the form. still 5/5! read more

2nd Street - Long Beach - buying estimate form - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Long Beach, California

Probably one of the most disappointing experiences I've had trying to sell clothes. The staff didn't seem knowledgeable about the value of certain items, and I was surprised to learn they don't accept Gucci--seems unusual for a resale shop. The employee I interacted with, Lily N, was not helpful or welcoming, and the overall interaction felt cold and impersonal. Unfortunately, the customer service matched the low expectations I now have for this place. read more

Sellers beware: they stole from me. I went in last week to sell some items. I took a couple of bags in. After reviewing my items (you leave for this process because it can take over an hour, and then they call you to come back when they are done assessing your stuff), they said they were buying 13 items. The items that they were taking were folded up in a bin. I tried to look through the bin and take photos of what they were buying from me (they don't offer you a list of what they are buying from you unless you ask, and even then, the list just shows number of items being purchased and price they will pay you, without specific descriptors like brand, or in some cases, clothing type). I felt rushed to check out without examining what they were buying. When I got home I realized that they actually took 14 of my items but said they were taking and only paid for 13 items. I know exactly what I took into them and exactly what didn't come back. They took two coats, and I suspect that they folded one coat up underneath another one. If you want to sell to them, make sure that you count every item in the bin that they're taking and ask for the list of what they're taking. read more

I brought a Givenchy Varsity Jacket to this location and immediately upon me showing them they undervalued it. The jacket was in perfect condition and still came with the garment bag. They valued it at $400 at first glance before verification. The associates were condescending. I highly suggest any potential seller to avoid this store. read more

Tried to make a return and was told all sales are final. Bummer but understandable I guess. They then told they would buy the item back from me, at quarter price of what I paid for it, less than 24hrs ago. Place is a joke. Bring back buffalo exchange. read more

This was a nice store. They had high priced items and some that won't break the bank. You really have to look through to find those treasures. Worth the visit. read more

2nd Street - Long Beach - Shirt bought. - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Long Beach, California

The employees at this is location have no idea what they are doing. They refused to buy back a wallet they said had a stain on it, I picked it up, licked my finger and rubbed the moisture on the wallet, it was gone. The prices that they gave are degrading and you can do much better at other locations. They also got the brands mixed up and gave me a higher price for a purse they thought was a different brand. Sorry, but the brand is embossed in gold writing right on the purse. Try another seller. It was convenient, but nothing I would ever do again. read more

Garbage ! DON'T come here !!! Don't waste your time waiting for hours and hours and end up getting an insulting lowball offer lol ! NOT recommended !!!! ZERO STARS !!!!! read more

Shopping is about a 3.0. Selling is a total crap shoot with no consistency, just the whim of whoever is buying. They told me it would be an hour, after an hour and 15 I asked if it was done (just so I could put more money in the meter) and the young woman seemed irritated and told me another 15 minutes, to which I cheerfully said, "No problem." Thirty minutes later she offers me 13$ for 3 pairs of excellent condition vans, Lucky blouses, Anthropologies blouses, a dress with tags on, etc. Thirteen dollars! The crazy thing is I've sold there before and been treated fine, which is why I came back after carefully selecting excellent items from my charity bag. I won't be back. read more

My partner and I came to sell about 20ish items today for the first time. We were greeted very nicely and the service was pretty solid. I had a couple of brandy Melville, bebe, radiodolls, and my partner brought in Jorts, blazer's, and other modern trendy clothing. As any other thrift store they will degrade your things but as someone wanting to get rid of things I think the value was pretty ok, I wasn't expecting some expected prices. Always keep your standards low!!! For about 16-18 pieces they took we got 105$ as a total. So I recommend this place if you are wanting to get rid of things asap! read more

I wish I could like this place. I've been in several times since it opened, and I have yet to find anything of decent quality and price. A good friend found two ok-ish pieces, but overall it doesn't seem like they vet the clothes properly. I'm always looking for nice sweaters, and many here have torn up elbows or holes. Things like that should be checked before being taken in to the store. I don't care if it's designer. If it's a damaged piece and past wearability, it shouldn't be on to floor in the first place. read more

I was recently in the store with my daughter and the security guard mentioned that they were closing In one minute and I said ok and was walking to the register to check out & there were other customers at the register checking out and Aaron from Saftey Zone security started yelling at me and said he already told me the store was closing in one minute. He was extremely disrespectful. I don't appreciate the disrespect and I put the clothing down and didn't buy anything at this point. He was extremely argumentative .. and said Lets take it outside like he wanted to fight. What grown man behaves that way to a woman with her daughter! Who does that & expects to keep his job ? Unbelievable. The manager was of no help in the situation at all. He didn't even know the security guards last name or the company that hired him. He advised me to contact corporate through the website & email A woman named Dakota Cosgrove. This is unacceptable and devastating. read more

Just my luck, I randomly walked in like "I see something I like in the glass case" to my surprise a new Louis Vuitton NoeNeo BB was staring me right in my face like "come get me" and it was in amazing shape for half the price of the retail price. It's selling right now on LouisVuitton.com for $1,900 & tax. I got it for $991 with tax. What a deal! This bag isn't old, it's the newer version. It came with a certificate of authenticity from a well known authentication service. The customer service was fair because it was the end of the night and I could only imagine dealing with so many people which is overwhelming. So yeah the 2 ladies at the front assisted me Angel and another lady. They were happy. The only thing is all sales final unless it's really something they can fold on. I'll be keeping it tho. I'll be taking it to Louis Vuitton store for a cleaning, even tho it's in amazing condition. I always come in here with an open mind, sometimes I don't see what I want but today I got lucky. I love me some Louis Vuitton. read more

As an avid fashionista plagued by guilt because of the wastefulness of the fashion world, I pretty much only buy second hand, primarily via Poshmark. I've sold and bought ar Buffalo exchange, Plato's closet, uptown cheapskate, seen it all and feel very comfortable selling clothes. I've now sold at 2nd street and purchased their clothes, and here are my findings. The process at 2nd street is the simplest Ive encountered. No store credit differential to your cash, what they're giving you is what you're getting which I appreciate. I can't always find things even when I am selling and don't want to be penalized for that by having to take less in cash. Now. I have never been so blown away by the vast selection and deeply reasonable prices here. I don't expect to be paid a lot for what I bring in, and am always happy with what they take and what I am paid in exchange. The price makes sense when you take into account the cost of all the items on the floor. Additionally, this store has the best second hand inventory of mid size women's clothes (1x, 14, 16...) I have seen in my life, and it's not frumpy old lady clothes. If you have some super glamorous designer item you think is worth a lot of money, you're better off trying your luck selling it independently. If you are looking to swap out your wardrobe in a more ethical and sustainable way, however, this might be exactly the place you are looking for. One note, I was quoted 45-60 minutes waiting time to sell. Iñ actuality it was closer to 90, but they took all but one or my pieces and were a pleasure to chat with while they processed the sale. read more

Bruh this store is definitely something. If your tryna sell designer here save your time and don't come tbh your not gonna get what you want - I never write reviews but I'll help y'all save time and hopes Literally everything in this list is new. And the offers... pass that stuff y'all got with these prices Fosho- read more

This place looks like it's getting a lot of buzz in town lately because it sure was jumping with customers. I actually found a great brand jacket in great condition along with an unbelievable price.

2nd Street - Long Beach - Nice variety of wallets - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Long Beach, California

Hilarious! They to give me $8 for a pair of $250 shoes worn once. In total, they attempted to give me $25 for about $5,000 in clothing. Probably a good place to find bargains (or maybe not based on reviews below where people sold clothes for 10 cents to see them on the racks for $15-30...?), My advice: donate or trash your clothes before thinking about getting ripped off here. read more
