Good Neighbor Thrift Store in Avon Lake is a great smaller thrift store. Good Neighbor has 2…read morebuildings on Lear Road very near to Lake Erie. The South building is mainly clothes, jewelry, shoes, books and toys. The front room is mainly women's clothing with a smaller men's section in the back room. Despite the limited selection of men's clothes I have been impressed with the quality of the selection. I have found 2 pairs of really good shoes here and prices are reasonable. The North Building is mostly home goods, really high quality furniture, some interesting art and other home decor, with kitchen goods, sporting goods and some electronics. Here the prices are very good especially when you consider the quality of the offerings. If you are looking for some great high quality thrift shop finds checking out Good Neighbor Thrift Store is well worth your time. While the big thrift stores have bigger selection it is nice to support a local shop and to reward them for doing a great job. This is a well organized thrift shop with a nice compact foot print and reasonable prices.

Sad to report that this boutique owner does not pay her vendors. We met when she ordered from my…read morewholesale account on Faire.com - after she had some issues with Faire, I made allowances and helped her to switch items outside the platform. Big mistake! After that she saw an item I had posted on Facebook and requested a wholesale order be custom made to her specifications. Upon receipt she gave positive reviews: months later after not receiving payment, I reached out. She mentioned that they had not sold well and I politely reminded her that these items were made to her specifications and that their selling is her sole responsibility, like any other wholesale account. I paid out materials and labors for manufacturing what is essentially her design, and she has yet to pay. She stopped responding months ago - I have screen shots of the entire exchange. Consigners or vendors beware. Jennifer Batistelli will take advantage of you.

This is the best place to find random items that you have been looking for at a reasonable price. I…read morelove coming here and browsing around. There is two floors to the barn, the main floor has lots to look at. You need to spend a good amount of time here because you definitely miss things on the first look. I've found a desk here and some cute little items. Not only do they have the barn, but they also have the house (directly across from the barn) loaded with some bigger furniture items and odds and ends. This is a great place to find the one of a kind pieces. Great place to find gifts for people. They sometimes have an outdoor market in the summer and there is even more to browse through. I would recommend checking this place out.

The Avon Salvation Army Thrift store is a decent thrift store, but it just seems to have lost some…read moreof its allure. Like the other Salvation Army Thrifts in the area they have gone to a pricing system for most clothes and shoes where all items in a category are the same price and there is a single color that is 50% off an on Wednesday all but 1 color are 50% off. This system can work well in offering some good bargains if they are receiving items that are desirable, however that seems to be the issue for this store. for the last couple of visits here I have just not found any items that I was interested in. The racks seem to be a bit under stocked, not a lot of selection especially for a large store such as this. The items that are for sale are not anything special or really desirable. In the past I have found some decent clothing items, recently I haven't even found anything I wanted to try on or research. This store has never been really well stocked with decor items or housewares, but there used to be an occasional special item that would catch my eye; now the selection is limited and not very interesting. The Avon Salvation Army is still good if you are shopping for wardrobe basics and you want to fill out your closet; it is less desirable if you are looking for anything high end or really fashionable. The non-clothing items are just so-so. Of course you may have a much different impression. Worth a visit if you are in the area, but not worth a special trip.

I don't know why this happened but I hate it (employee said they don't like it either). When 2 colored tags were 50 percent off and one was .99 cents for clothes, shoes, housewares etc....

The other reviews on here are total bullshit. I've never had a bad experience. Been going in for…read moreyears. It's a consignment thrift store not a donation center. Consignment thrift stores are for vintage and gently used items. This lady thoughtfully selects items from people in her community and ensures she gets a fair price for the people who rely on her. When you do her dirty you are not just letting her down, but you are also trying to steal from your community. People should learn how to read before writing a bad review and they should learn to be more respectful before speaking. The other reviews are people trying to haggle a price when she is more than fair and even willing to give deals to buyers if they purchase multiple items. The shop is completely run by one woman who has a life and people shouldn't be shitty about her not being there all the time. It's a treasure trove not eBay or Amazon. It's for people who want to find something special and gently used. And people who want to intentionally support people in THEIR community. I found this Bob Makey jacket and the lady gave me a very fair price. Didn't even know it was bob makey. Just thought it looked nice. She educated me and gave me polite conversation. Maybe if you are going to try and haggle an already fair price you shouldn't expect the lady to be nice. She has a quick way of speaking. Maybe people think it's a little abrupt. She's just sure of herself. She's never rude. Never has been. Never will be. Literal fucking lies from the scum bags trying to get free shit. Cannot believe these inaccurate reviews. Some people just don't appreciate others and try to ruin a good thing.
