It appears that the two stores are now struggling, mainly due to high rents, store prices have been…read moreincreased beyond what is available on Internet and other stores, i.e. brand new in all sizes and colors items. E.g. an old cashmere sweater full of holes $30, a small yarn of wool not enough for making a cap $10, tacky no quality jewelry above $20, etc. Still some people come and are looking for some "treasures", this cannot happen, because all those might never reach the store shelves. However, I would give a high credit to a foreign born owner (barber) to establish those stores to absorb at least to some extent so much clothing and other items that otherwise would have finished in the garbage cans. This only underlines an urgent need to establish a high capacity thrift stores in dense populated affluent Manhattan areas, at least 3 mega Good Will stores were closed in Manhattan during last few years, apparently because of a total incompetence of the top highly overpaid staff and not dealing with mass corruption at all levels, best valuable items hardly make it into stores or appear on online auctions. So, if a foreign born owner can run those stores and still with some profit, why across the country tax free store chain decades in existence cannot do the same?

Literally where do I begin. Boxes everywhere, so messy and unorganized, you cannot safely walk…read morearound. I saw an old lady trip over a box, she turned to the two women behind the register and notified them of how unsafe it is to have a box there and how she almost just fell. They IGNORE her and keep talking amongst themselves. Very rude and no sense of customer service, and this was further exemplified by my checkout experience. I found a very beat up ralph lauren card holder with no price on it. The leather was stained and peeling in some areas. Some other wallets were marked between $4-$6. I went up to the counter and asked how much it was, expecting a similar price considering the condition. She pulls her phone and I kid you not spends almost two minutes googling how much it's worth online? And looks at me with a straight face and says it's $20. HA. I said no thank you I'll just take this candle. I hand her cash and she gives me change and doesn't even look me in the eye, no thank you, no have a nice day, just hands me change and walks away and starts saying something in Russian to the other girl. I would not shop here again or recommend the store to anyone, the selection / prices are subpar at best, and the customer service is seriously lacking.

Sad to see the wasted potential here. They are clearly overwhelmed with donations, but insist on…read morepricing damaged and filthy goods so high that they sit unsold for months on end. If you really dig, you might be able to find something, but the strong smell of unwashed clothing makes it difficult to stay long. The classic thrift store business model is one of volume. Since the stock is acquired for free, it is possible to sell items at a rate significantly lower than average retail. The small sales pile up day after day to become a large source of revenue. When you price the donations too high, they pile up day after day until the store becomes revolting to shop in and sales begin to suffer. I mean no disrespect, but it's the harsh truth. I would love to shop here and am upset that I don't. Please change your business model.

This store is a typical Goodwill Store, but on a smaller scale than what I'm used to seeing. It was comfortably crowded early afternoon. The employees were friendly. My wife and I went in to browse. She particularly wanted to get a bag or pocketbook for my adult daughter who is a bag addict. We ended up not buying anything because of the small selection. Oh well, maybe next time.

I don't tend to like the smell of most thrift shops but I didn't feel this way there..it really felt like just shopping at a regular shop. Even if tags were old it was on the inside and it's clear that all the clothing items were examined carefully before putting up for sale. Their mission to help people who are homeless and people with AIDS is just another reason to shop here, one of many locations. There are even tax deductible membership dues and discounts if you decide to join Housing Works. I left with a gray Theory blazer and lots of inspiration to do more thrifting and check out their other locations!

I'll definitely return if for nothing else but to take photos. I do have a London Fog coat in brand new condition. I was thinking of selling it but my daughter said to keep it.

This particular Housing Works is nice and organized and very clean. The employees are all very hard at work. I purchased a stainless steel dinner knife for $1 and was surprised I was asked for tax. It's always been my understanding that a nonprofit doesn't pay taxes. Why would I pay them tax? I'm very appreciative of the work this organization does so I'm not going to take off stars. The prices are high to me and the employees appear unhappy. I don't feel comfortable and welcome even though I'm not bothered by them while browsing. It should be three stars but I'm a softy.
