This was my first time visiting Upscale Resale. There were a lot of great deals in the store and a…read morelot of name brand items as well! I found out that it's a volunteer business, so the two women behind the counter were just there for something to do. I thought that it was really great that they just go there to help out the woman who owns the shop. It was really cute and organized and a lot of great options of clothing, households, decorations, and shoes to look through! At first I thought it was a little bit steep for the two dresses and two pairs of shoes that I bought at $37 but at the same time I did get 2 dresses that were Michael Kors & Talbots. The shoes were Crocs and Noat. They often have a lot of great deals and specials, like this week was half off green tags! Therefore, I got my Michael Kors dress for $7, and that's actually a pretty good deal! I will definitely be going back more often to check out the new items they have!

Karen's carries a fairly wide selection of brand names (Target to mall brands) which is nice. The…read moreracks of tops can be difficult to shop because they are often too full to move hangers around for browsing and the dress selection doesn't seem to turn over much at all. I feel like I see the same dresses every time I'm in the shop. Decent selection of non-resale accessories, but (and I'll admit this was several visits ago so I don't know if it's still happening), I've spotted fake designer handbags here. So, if that's what you're looking for, buyer beware. And Karen, it's not legal to sell fake bags. Consigning here is pretty easy and I've had decent success in my items selling. However, if something doesn't sell and you fail to pick it up they will donate it. And they won't give you a reminder call that your consignment is up, so it's on you as the seller to be organized enough to remember that date. I lost a high end piece by not paying attention to my calendar. My fault, I know. But worth pointing out. But I have to say, beyond the clothes or selling process here, the thing that always strikes me the most when I go to Karen's is how grumpy and unfriendly their staff is. It's pretty ridiculous. It's retail. Would it kill these girls to smile and say hello? Apparently it might.

The store has always been overcrowded and the shoe set up has never made much since but lately I…read morecan't believe how many ancient, polyster items they have. This is not a vintage store, nor what those things be considered vintage. Long floral skirts and button up shirts with lace collars. Not to mention the staff just hangs out with their friends or coworkers, who knows, and talk about their personal lives all day. You could maybe find somethign good if you're prepared to really really hunt and pay too much for it. Good luck to you but I think not.
