I live in Lakeside and I always pass this little thrift shop and finally decided to stop in. The…read moreowner is friendly and chatty, which is nice. The store is small and packed with items. Everything is still accessible, though, except the dresses which are hung up on a wall. Lots of treasures on the clothing racks, some organized some not. A little bit of everything and all at very fair prices compared to Goodwill and Salvation Army. I appreciate when second hand shops actually keep their prices low(ya know, second hand prices), so this store checked all of those boxes for me. They have a standing mirror of a sort(not really full length), but no fitting rooms. That is the only bummer for me, BUT I understand why. The owner let me know that she has had a lot of issues with people stealing items, which makes me sad for a few reasons. 1. The owner is really lovely and has items out front for $1 that people can buy(but I suspect she would also give clothing items away to people who are really in a pinch). 2. This is a small shop and thievery is lame. If you want something for less, ask. Does not hurt to ask. Don`t steal. Please. I told her to make sure she has people leave larger bags/coats at the front counter and to also make a sign that says NO PUBLIC RESTROOMS, so people don't try to browse, "use the restroom" and then leave with stolen items. If you are stealing and reading this, don`t be a jerk. Send me a message and I`ll take you shopping here. Overall a really nice thrift store that I`ll be returning to while I`m here in Lakeside.

Recently, I drove to the La Mesa store with a car full of donations during a very heavy rainstorm. I pulled up to the marked donation drop-off door but was told I could not park there and needed to move across the lot, get a cart, and bring everything in myself. I explained that i was not parking, I am handicapped and offloading since it was pouring rain, but was still told no. I ended up leaving without donating or shopping. As a loyal supporter of FJV, I was very disappointed by the lack of understanding and outright rudness.

The quality of the items is impressive, and the store is well organized, which makes browsing enjoyable. That said, the pricing feels more like a boutique than a thrift store. While I understand that proceeds go toward a good cause, I often leave empty‑handed because the prices are just too high for what I'd expect at a thrift. For me, part of the joy of thrifting is finding something wonderful and feeling like I scored a bargain -- not like I overpaid. If you don't mind paying a lot more, you'll likely find unique and quality pieces here. But if you're hunting for that classic thrift‑store bargain, be prepared that prices may not match the typical thrifting experience.

I went in about a week ago with some old gold jewelry. Rings chains, etc. I was looking to just…read moresell it all for just a spot price. It varied slightly between 10, 12 and 14 carat. Before I went in, I checked the spot price value for all of the gold. I also weighed it so I knew exactly. What I had. There were a few extra pieces that needed to be tested. And some of it was gold and some of it just plated. So all that did was add to the value of what I knew I had. When I asked them if they would be willing to purchase that for the spot gold price. Which was going for $68 a gram that day. They only offered $48 a gram. That is a whopping 30% that they were going to take off the top! That was absolutely ridiculous when I know that most places do not charge that much for processing to purchase gold at Spot price. That should've been more like between 5 and 10%. To charge 30% was a total rip off! Needless to say, I did not sell my gold to them nor would I. Nor would I ever go back there. I guess they just figured that I was stupid. That I didn't know the value of what I had and would just take their lowball offer. Don't go to American Gold Exchange if you want to get fair prices for selling your gold or silver jewelry.
