The clothing is organized well and the prices are generally reasonable. The housewares and book selection is limited as well as limited toys. The service is friendly, but I do believe they follow around the customers too much. I think they have volunteers since it's part of Catholic charities, but they seem to always be putting away clothing in the area that people are shopping and watching the customers which is uncomfortable.

I found out about Ditto when I was looking for a consignment or resale boutique that wasn't low…read moreend, like Plato's Closet (Plato's Closet caters to teenagers, and the clothing was cheap when new, mostly from Wal-Mart and Debs at best). I was hoping to find a consignment shop in town, but this was even better - Ditto buys (very selectively) for cash or about 20% more for store credit. I found a few grungy pieces while I shopped but 98% of what I saw was is in excellent condition and is not wash-worn, and I think they must dryclean or steam clean everything before putting it out, because the shop itself smells like new clothes, like any other boutique - unlike Plato's Closet, which smells like a chainsmoker wearing Axe body spray. Plato's Closet only seems to recognize cheap brands. They're not going to give you fair trade for a leather bag, all of their bags and most of their shoes are made out of plastic pleather and they seem mystified by anything nice. Ditto gave me a fair valuefor my clothing/shoes/bags, and saved me the time of having to try to ebay things, or find a consignment store in KC and wait to see if things sold eventually. I think you can expect to get about 10-20% of your item's original retail value; they're going to sell it for 50-60% under original retail value, so they're covering all their operating costs on the relatively thin margin of what's left after they subtract what they pay you. So the Prada boots, you're going to get maybe 30-40 dollars for them and might do better on ebay, but ebay is a PITA. I've read the reviews saying the sales staff are snobby, rude, whatever - and I think that's not quite right, or at least not quite fair. They're weird and aloof and awkward because they're SUPER YOUNG. They're not comfortable interacting with adults yet and that's really obvious if you've spent any amount of time with people 18-24 (the age of most of my students). Yes, they look like adults, but they're not. They're basically teenagers, and having to hold a conversation with someone who is older than 40 makes them feel like they're coming down with Ebola. If they look at you like they're judging you, it's because they're still living in that horrible self-conscious adolescent world where they do judge others, and themselves, harshly and nearly constantly. Most of them seem to be interesting and introverted, not the kind of kid who is extroverted and P-E-P-P-Y. So don't get snippy with them because they haven't learned how to effectively kiss a stranger's butt yet (sorry, practice "customer service"), that hostility seems to come out of nowhere to them and it just makes them more feral and weird. Be kind. Remember what a hard time that was. And if you're interacting with an awkward millennial, thank your lucky stars you're not dealing with the extremely weird older lady with the big frizzy bun hair and the pinched face who works there sometimes, or used to. I haven't seen her in awhile, maybe she has moved on to being offputting somewhere else. If I had to deal with her every time I brought in a bag of things to have evaluated, I'd never go at all.

Sells stuff you can find at target, walmart, jcpenny, etc. Prices are okay. Overall nothing to write home about in terms of what they have to offer. Store is blatantly religiously affiliated, if that matters to any potential customers, and they will be playing christian radio stations. My biggest gripe with this business is the uncomfortable customer service experience. The person working the counter claimed i "messed up the racks" by looking at items? I was the only customer in the store at the time, but I wasnt ripping through racks by any means and actively made sure to leave items/racks how they were, so i genuinely dont understand what this comment was made for. It felt uncomfortable and inappropriate to be addressed this way, almost in a disciplinary manner. I absolutely understand wanting to keep the store organized and being upset that you just finished reorganizing things, but this is a store where people will be shopping. If you cant handle people simply looking at clothes, then maybe you shouldnt own/work a clothing store !

Usually if you go to a thrift store, the toy area is trashed from the kids playing with the toys. But they had the toys higher up on shelves and bagged with the pieces that go with the toys. So they actually had a better selection of toys because all the pieces are most pieces were intact. I ended up buying some toys there for my grandson and also some books. Their prices were good compared to other thrift stores. I did not look at the clothing prices which tend to be ridiculous at most thrift stores. We did not have to wait long at all to check out and the woman was friendly. I have been to the other Blessings Abound thrift store in Overland Park, but not this one. I would recommend it to anyone living in this area.

This is by far one of my favorite places to thrift in the Olathe area! On top of their cheap…read moreprices, friendly staff, and many options, this place is often not crowded and very spacious. A lot of their clothing is outdated and not trendy whatsoever but I'm assuming that comes from the area the store is located. Not the fault of the store. I went in the other day to find some rings. I rang the call button at the jewelry counter, and someone came to help me within seconds. She was very friendly and made conversation with me while I was picking out the rings I wanted. She even mentioned that she saw some more rings in the back recently and told me to come back next week to check out the new collection. If you go on a day when they are having a sale, you are sure to find an amazing deal! Even when they are not having sales, I can usually find well-priced items that make the trip worth it. A few things are overpriced but most of the items are reasonable! I love this place and will continue to go often!

So it makes buying gifts extremely difficult. I chose not to purchase gifts here because of the 7 day exchange policy. That just isn't realistic.

Then had to return it. That's a stupid exchange timeframe. That cuts out a lot of my shopping from there.

I understand the boutique situation of displaying your wares all around in a cute stylish way in order to give your buyers some style tips. But, the clothing was a little overboard with the fur vests and the sandals. Hello, it's winter time. Anyway, the clothing was in disarray all over the store with plain shirts scattered here and there and mixed in with the furry monstrosities. I just thought it was hard to navigate if you are like me and are looking for a particular thing. Now, the prices were on the borderline of gouging. $50 for a plastic necklace? $35 for rhinestone hoop earrings? I've seen more unique pieces for less at other boutiques. The service was slightly off putting as well. I was one of three customers in the shop, and was asked three times within the 15 minutes I was there if I was doing alright. YES, let me shop woman. I'm not saying it was bad service, but edging on annoying. So after all this, you ask did I even buy anything? Yes, of course, I bought a scarf. I always do because I love them. I have to admit it was one I have never seen the likes of. But once again, $20 for an acrylic scarf? A bit steep. I do recommend this if you are looking for some cute new jewelry or any number of boutique items, as you will find them. But be ready to pay too much for everything.
