Aside from it being a requirement on yelp, I will give this store a 1 based on the fact that there were some lovely looking shoes in the window. However, after trying to open the door three times at 1pm while looking at the sign above reading OPEN 10am-5pm, I began to feel confused and worried. Then after another 5 minutes of standing outside, the door was finally unlocked. Not opened, but unlocked. The woman behind the counter unlocked the door, and instead of opening the door for my mom and I, simply walked back to her counter. I read about the rude service on here prior to going but thought I would see it for myself as I was hoping to consign somewhere locally. Well, let me tell you, just by the lack of courtesy and a simple hello (We had to say hi to receive a look up from the counter and an unpleasant hello), I would never consign here.
As for the store, it is really hard to want to stay in a store after feeling as though you are unwelcome, but still we continued to look. It is fairly clean but very small and crowded. I understand the want to sell as much as possible, but there's not much room to shop. As for the merchandise, I found that there was a focus on selling shoes and purses as they line almost every wall. Everything seems to be gently used and most of the shoes I picked up were about $30.
Would I recommend anyone ever shop here? NO. I can deal with a small space, but the attitude I cannot stand. Some may say, oh I don't like them in my face, but having that woman just sit quietly behind the counter while we shopped was just plain rude. BUT! What was worse, was when an acquaintance of hers came into the store and the blabbing began. Not only was it an insult as she was bothered by unlocking the door for us, but in a small store noise fills a room. For us, it was very uncomfortable to try to shop around the conversation and even try to leave as we felt as though we were walking through their conversation.
So, in the end, if you plan to consign or shop here, let's hope you know these people; and if you do, maybe teach them a thing or two about customer service! You need customers and consignees in order to run your business! read more
