So glad I finally stopped by!

Community makes me believe in vintage and thrift again. Sound dramatic? Maybe you haven't been…read morethrifting in Vancouver as a plus size woman! Vancouver's vintage and consignment is already notoriously expensive and caters almost exclusively to a small dress size. Community, a Vintage and Consignment that is run by a non-profit Downtown Eastside housing and resource society not only engages with the neighbourhood it lives in, but also works to diversify its size range to engage with shoppers of many sizes. It hires women from the neighbourhood to work in the business and portions of the proceeds go back into the neighbourhood, which feels great while you shop! The space is small but well utilized and well decorated. Great jewelry by local designers is on display and the clothes have a very consistent and curated turnover rate. And the prices!! Compared to Vancouvers vintage scene, Community is absolutely the fairest price I've found yet. These days even Value Village is getting pricey so to go to a shop where the selection is so well picked out and find something affordable feels great. Again, I'm a plus size shopper who finds an amazing score here 90% of the time. Pieces from Community make up probably 50% of my wardrobe. See you there this weekend!

Assistant manager talked to me in full baby talk our whole conversation with greasy braids, very slovenly dressed, definitely not manager material. extremely hard to get passed the baby talk.

I found both extremely rude, very hard to believe that they represent your store. I also witnessed a brown lady, a supervisor I believe, scolding a girl right in front of all 3 of us customers, very inappropriate! These girls are worked to the bone!

Overall Impression Talize delivers a strong thrifting…read moreexperience built around clean organization, steady restocks, and better‑than‑average quality control. It's one of the more curated thrift chains, so the store feels less chaotic than some competitors while still offering the thrill of unexpected finds. What Talize Does Well - Organization and layout -- Sections are clearly labeled, racks are tidy, and the store is easy to sweep in a single loop. This makes it ideal for fast hunts or full‑store circuits. - Quality of items -- Clothing and home goods tend to be in better condition than typical thrift stores, with fewer damaged or unusable items on the shelves. - Electronics section -- Often smaller than Value Village, but the items that do appear are usually cleaner and tested more consistently. - Pricing consistency -- Prices are more predictable, especially for clothing and household items, which helps budget‑minded shoppers. - Frequent promotions -- Talize often runs color‑tag sales and seasonal discounts that make the hunt even more rewarding. Things to Keep in Mind - Electronics stock varies -- Some days the shelves are full; other days it's almost empty. Great for quick sweeps, but not always for deep hunts. - Higher baseline prices -- Certain categories (like jackets or décor) can be priced higher than expected, depending on brand and condition. - Less "wild chaos" -- If you enjoy the unpredictable madness of Value Village spawns, Talize can feel more curated and less chaotic. Who Talize Is Best For - Shoppers who want clean, organized thrifting without digging through piles. - People looking for quality clothing at reasonable prices. - Hunters who enjoy consistent restocks and predictable pricing. - Anyone doing a multi‑store circuit and wants a reliable mid‑stop between Value Village and Goodwill. Quick, Review‑Ready Summary Talize is a clean, well‑organized thrift store with reliable quality and steady restocks. Prices are consistent, the clothing selection is strong, and the store is easy to sweep quickly. Electronics can be hit‑or‑miss, but when they appear, they're usually in good condition. A great stop for curated thrifting and a solid anchor in any Surrey thrift‑store circuit.

This is a fun vintage and second-hand store that looks deceptively small from the street! The store…read moreis actually fairly large. The main floor has a huge selection of jewellery from various eras, bags, shoes, accessories, and vintage clothing, along with some knick knacks. Upstairs, there's more clothes, including a small children's section, some more contemporary pieces, jeans, housewares and records. The standouts are the shoes and jewellery. There were some amazing shoes including doc martens with flowers and artichocke moschino heels -- if only they were my size! The jewellery selection includes a large selection of screw back and clip on earrings, regular earrings and brooches among necklaces, bracelets, etc. Some very cool and unique pieces. The prices are super fair and the owner curates the whole store and is fun to chat with. Very knowledgeable about styles from different periods! The staff here is really friendly and will help you with suggestions if you are looking for something specific. I was shopping for earrings for my sister and everyone here helped me find the perfect gift. Everything on the ground level has tags that indicated the decade the item dated to. The second floor did not always have this, just because a lot of the items were obviously contemporary so it was not so necessary e.g. a sweater from Zara. This store is a hidden gem!

Though I'll almost always leave with something since they do such an amazing job curating their clothing and jewelry. Though don't be confused, they are a vintage and consignment store so don't expect thrift prices, but know that you're supporting a great local business and everything they carry is of amazing quality. But regardless if I'm just there to chat, to buy, or to sell, I've always had a great experience with them!

But something piqued my interest when I heard of Community Thrift and Vintage. I knew this one would be different then the rest. Man was I right. One part social enterprise, one part thrift store, all parts awesome, this pretty little boutique is retail-with-a-conscious to the highest order. A firm believer that the "thrift" in "thrift store" should be observed, I was beyond relieved to walk into an unpretentious, well-curated, and cheap(!!) vintage shop. Adhering to my "no uglies" policy, this not-for-profit opts for natural fibres when choosing their wares, and has a strict no polyester rule (thankthelawd). With its reclaimed wood and exposed brick walls, its well-curated wares, and its social advocacy and support of the DTES, Community Thrift could easily upsell cool to the masses. But they don't. And I love them so much more for it.

I met the owner of the shop (James) at my work and he told me to stop by his shop and I'm so glad I did! The store has a really cool vibe, excellent layout, $10 sift-through bins (holla!) and James is the friendliest dude and will actually shop WITH you (and if you like British accents as much as I do, you'll just never leave) and as another plus, it doesn't smell like mouldy armpit like most other second-hand stores. Do yourself a favour and go visit James, I promise you're in for a lovely time! :)
