The store clothing ratio is about 75% female and 25% male. They have everything from jackets to suits here. Neatly separated as well by section. The pricing is very very good here especially on the high end suits such as ETRO, Brioni and Zegna. I have NEVER EVER seen even in NYC. A thrift store with high end luxury suits such as these and priced reasonably in my time. Also their ties are very high end as well from Brioni and Zegna for under $3 The clothing prices are amazing for their brands. Mostly all luxury brands and priced very reasonably. They have artwork and some jewelry in cases as well as silver coins. Parking is very easy due to the private shared parking lot with the shopping center. There's Cameras outside as well to cut down on crime which is a major plus. The employees have always been friendly all the times I've been here. The woman who owns the store is a true angel. Very friendly, social and professional. I always ask her questions about some items mainly ties and she's always friendly and nice. The general crowd is mainly adults. Very very highly disciplined. The noise level is normal for a high end thrift store. Very calm.

The clothes inside equally amazing and surprisingly affordable. Lots of famous brands and really high quality clothing in a variety of sizes. They don't have fitting rooms which I was at first not happy about, but as it turns out everyone just changes in front of the mirrors in a back corner.

My Mom was visiting and wanted to visit some local antique stores nearby. There's not much…read more "antique" that I'm aware of or could find in the metro DC area so this ended up on the very short list of places to visit. We came here first and were blown away by how neat, clean, and well decorated the store was. The first item I was drawn to was a beautifully hand painted egg in excellent condition - for something like $13. I couldn't think of anyone it would have been a good gift for, but wish I did! It was gorgeous and definitely a piece someone would cherish. They had numerous such type items. My Mom found some fabrics and other items she loved so much she was willing to get them and schlep them all the way back to Hawaii in her luggage. She also enjoyed looking at all the jewelry in the cases and talking with the helpful volunteers. The only off note for me was while talking to one of the volunteers, they made it a point to let me know they didn't accept all donations. Twice. I almost laughed out loud in her face the second time. Don't assume because I'm in shorts and a T-shirt that I'm not aware of the niche the store is attempting to maintain, or that I don't have items to donate that they would make money off of. *But* they are volunteers and they were super nice to my Mom so they get a pass for it. I'll be bringing other friends who love this kind of shopping by in the future. Being the first store we visited made the others pale in comparison. Definitely a winner!

Tucked away in an industrial park, the store is quaint yet extremely well put together and merchandised ... it really made shopping fun because the way they had everything arranged literally caught your attention and drew you in. Oh and the entire store was 50% off so it made discovering treasures even that much more exciting. I purchased a unique pair of boho wedge sandals and tons of bracelets and a necklace ... all for $15!!!! I didn't take any pics which is so unlike me, but that just tells you how much fun I had and I'll definitely be back!

I love supporting small businesses, and I never pass up a trip to a thrift shop. I found a blazer that I liked, but I needed to make sure that it fit my shoulders, so I tried it on over my clothes. Immediately, I heard a woman barking loudly near me that trying on clothing was not allowed because of their return policy. I turned to see who was being loud and obnoxious, when I saw a short, elderly woman with salt and pepper hair jabbing at the air with her fingers, saying the same thing over and over again (you can find a picture of her in a previous review). The tone she used and the spectacle she was making made me laugh at her out of pure bewilderment. My husband and I immediately agreed that we didn't want to spend our money at a place where the staff didn't know how to treat people with kindness and respect. I hung up my items and we promptly left. I wish I had read the reviews before taking time out of my day to go there.

That said, I thought the prices were a little bit high. I got a couple things, but if the prices were better, I would've gotten more. They had an antique wheelchair, for example, that was like $700. They also had vintage film projectors and other things like that that were priced fairly high. If they had clothes, I didn't notice. I think they did, just not a lot of them. If I lived nearby, I'd stop in from time to time.
