You're better off just doing without than bothering with these disgusting shitty people. They won't help with a bill for the stupidest reasons, and if you miss your food distribution date due to A BROKEN DOWN VEHICLE, and are out of food, they will just tell you "too bad oh well you have to come on your designated week" won't even offer one single option like for example to let me just pick up my next months food early so we can have food to eat. Nope they don't give one shit. They all need to be fired and they all need to humble themselves they are the worst ppl to go to during hard times. "Care help" lmao

Since I've never been addressed formally I'll write a review wherever I can because the way my…read morechildren were treated was completely unacceptable. I go there multiple times a week because it's convenient and it's a fun thing to do to pass time for me but Ebony decided instead of addressing me she would take toys from my children and tell them they couldnt play with them because "they don't want them playing with the toys anymore" I've been ignored on social media, no one has reached out to rectify the situation or even offer an apology. The other ladies there are always so nice and polite but I guess Ebony was having a bad day or something. Either way what she did was unacceptable and I'm sure she wouldn't have wanted her child/children treated the way mine were.

As a buyer of vintage/antique items, I thought the Emporium (both locations) And their sister store…read morethe fair would be a great place to shop. Boy I was completely wrong. The owner has stuff so overpriced that I wouldn't recommend anybody purchasing anything from the store. Most items you can find on eBay cheaper with shipping. I went to the fair and there was a Virgin Mary marked for $30. Yes, she was vintage. However upon closer look her head was decapitated and glued back. Not even a smooth glue job noticeably broken. I offered 5/$10 for it which is reasonable for a significantly damaged item. The owner's response was it was originally $75 so he would only go down to $25 seriously? Go ahead and keep decapitated Mary and I wish you the best on selling it for $25. Owner is obviously just in it for the money Or completely delusional you pick. Support if you'd like but Buyer beware! Make sure to check Google lens before you purchase.

I can give this business NOT ONE STAR. SEE THE BOTTOM PLEASE. I HAD TO GIVE IF ONE STAR TO POST…read moreAD. It is absolutely not as advertised on the website. The website is under a business umbrella and has 4 different business that are listed. Plato's closet at 2902 Ryan Street, Lake Charles, LA 700601 is the location I am addressing. They were dishonest, said some humiliating remarks, and profiled you by age and only the beginning. The stock was horrible and very worn looking even though the website says "gently used". That would be funny if not so untrue. The clothing was faded, shrunken and VERY used looking. A complete tour of the store was done. I spend weeks going through clothing, shoes, jewelry, and scarves. ALL were neatly done. We went to the store and was turned away because our items were in plastic bags. I did not know that. I was told they would have to be in tubs or bags to be recycled. So I said I had 2 pairs of boots in my car in their boxes and asked if I could leave them. I did. I was texted about 2 hours later. Here's the kicker. I had seen a faded yellow t-shirt on display in the window. I bought that and took to the counter. I have names and texts still until now. I bought this old faded looking yellow t-shirt for $8.00. What did I get in return for the 2 expensive pair of boots. I got $4. and some change. I was SHOCKED. The young lady was stone faced. So I went home and redid all of my clothes and put them neatly in tubs that I have. I had 2 paper handle bags with scarves, shoes, a couple of hats and a few miscellaneous items. I have pictures of ALL. The jewelry was all done in separate jewelry type plastic bags and then into a larger Ziploc and all sealed, plus were all lableled on the outside of the Ziplocks. I put 3 layers of tissue paper on the top of each tub before I left them. I also told them if they would rather I break up the amount of items I had and leave them at different times I would so the amount would be less to go through. I was told no, it's fine and left them. Please view the pictures I will attach. Obviously they were mostly undisturbed. One tub had a tear in the top tissue paper and one was gone through to some extent. The final tally after going back when texted I received $42.71 cents. I WAS BEYOND SHOCKED. My clothes never see the inside of a dryer. They are hung to dry and then put in a fluff cycle. I only dry sheets, bedding and towels. SO I ASK YOU DID MY CLOTHES LOOK GENTLY WORN? Absolutely and some were EXACTLY NEW, NEVER WORN. I repeat new and never worn, never dried, were not faded and shrunken. I had been PROFILED because you are made to SCAN you DRIVER'S LICENSE THROUGH A DEVICE BEFORE LEAVING ANYTHING. They texted me in about 2 hours again and I went back to find out the huge amount of money she begrudgingly gave out. I turned around and asked the person with me "Do you believe that". "I can not believe it". I WAS MORE THAN SHOCKED. They just shook their head and said "Let's get out of here". All the tubs were taken back out and put in our truck and we left with all of that MONEY. Another kicker here. All the young lady said was "Some of the men's shirts were kind of older." Let me give you an example of where I buy some of my clothes. I am a very small person. MAURICE'S, CATO, AMERICAN EAGLE, BUCKLE, LIFE IS GOOD, MARSHALL'S, DILLARD'S , KOHL'S PLUS MOSTLY FROM BOUTIQUES FROM DOWNTOWN AREAS WHEN WE TRAVEL. CHEAP? NO SO NOW I WILL ATTACH PICTURES. PICTURES SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS. ALL ITEM LISTED ON WEBSITE ACCEPTABLE. SOCIAL MEDIA IS ALSO VERY USEFUL. NO STARS

This collection of antiquities is scattered across the entire property and just when you think you've seen it all you find something else that you've missed during a previous visit. There has been some effort on the owners part to shelter some of the more unusual or fragile pieces but for the most part the pieces remain exposed to the elements and continue to rot away. This is a place I just simply can't drive by without stopping.
