I have a love / hate relationship with Goodwill in Auburn. Their selection is often great! However, their prices have skyrocketed. Lower priced items here are often more expensive than to purchase new. They had some yarn that seemed marked up - I checked Walmart and it's less expensive new. I found the manager who handles pricing, explained that it's cheaper New from Walmart. His response? "Well this is Goodwill, not Walmart!". Indeed. A donations-driven nonprofit engaging in price gouging. Other outrageous pricing I've seen - beat up LLBean clothing being sold for twice the cost of similar apparel, damaged goods that they refuse to discount, etc. Soooo, maybe try an independent thrift store first. And please check prices on your phone! Or stick to the sale tag colors! Finally, consider donating elsewhere because while this place is mission driven, they're certainly making us customers pay more to increase already inflated upper management salaries - you can look that up. read more

was very pleased! looking for a large rolling duffel and got lucky and found a nice quality used red rolling duffel for a reasonable $10. Especially when looking new and expecting to pay huge amount more! knowing people shop at Goodwill since they are pinching pennies, the store does carry new items often the Big Lots type deals on either new cheap (both quality and price) clothing (shoes boots), accessories (gloves socks) as well as household items like aluminum wrap and zip locks. Even though we could not find a decent pair of snow boots for my daughter, the Sorels we saw for $25 for overpriced for such interior damage to the boot, she appropriately said no. Anyway thrift store shopping is always hit and miss but since i got a good hit with the duffel, I am happy. read more

For a second-hand retailer, this place is just great. It's hard to rate its inventory since the inventory changes all the time. The store itself is modern and clean, and the staff is pleasant. They are very appreciative when accepting donations as well as when you check out in the store. This is the best Goodwill I've ever been in. read more

Vivaldi's 'Winter' plays in my head as I step inside and the Russian Nutcracker dolls stare a warm blankness of welcome back at me - and I begin to observe things more closely as I go - to the end of the rainbow. Norwegian cup sets and German decorative plates are set up in front of flowing paintings of cherry blossoms, oils of creepy kids and alternative art canvases and it darn near broke my heart to leave the French prints behind. Look up to see candelabras and left to see a antique ice bucket - all of this I adore. Manual hand mixers and beaters next to flour and sugar silos, enamel coffee pots and Pyrex tanned glass crockery. My arms were filling up so I bought two bags and went hither and tither and placed two egg cups inside and a Ralph Lauren roll-up mat with pillow. Between the hand blown blue and green glass galore the large pewter population, frosted glass of polar bears and Mickey Mouse - I had to have it all, but I live on the road and I shant - much to my sadness my rainbow was shortened on this day.

We called to check on the bell and first were told the girl who could work on it didn't come in until 10 one morning and they would call us with an update. I'm sure there was some confusion with myself calling and my husband being the person they called back however, after we called to check again on the bell, we were told that they engraved it, didn't like how it came out, buffed it, and would be re-engraving it. Once again, when we called to check on it, we were told that the girl that did engraving didn't work on Mondays. Then, next thing we know, they are telling us they can no longer engrave it. I understand that unpredictable situations occur and perhaps my perception of the experience is a bit different, but we were told they could do something and then after apparently doing work, could no longer perform the service requested. It just felt a bit off... everyone was friendly when we would call so nothing against the employees, just ended up being a situation that set us back on this project (a gift) a few weeks longer than we would have liked and just seemed like we were being given false information.
