The staff here is so nice and welcoming. They have amazing pricing and deals and the selection was amazing. They had amazing vintage clothing and toys. Tons of books I was able to fill up a bag of books for 3 dollars. Definitely recommend read more

Everything in the store was 50% off. I walked through and you can tell that this is a real thrift store. Things seem to be more Thai but trake into account that the price will be/half off. As I walked around, you could tell it was a good value and you could find stuff that you needed and the staff was very helpful as well. read more

I came upon this by accident. Full of vintage and thrift items. All in order. The owners were very kind. I will go back again when in town as I was just passing through. read more

I live in Rio Rancho but visit Orphans when I go thrift store shopping. It's great that the prices on items are NOT the actual price. The actual price is always 50% off at the register. After a few visits I found loud speakers I liked but no price. I asked the owner/manager the price. He said make an offer. I made a fair offer and he accepted. Great customer service. And also, the store is supportive of local youth and fatherless children in NM and internationally. Why not support the store or even donate if possible? read more

Creepy and unorganized I can deal with it's the 180.00 used dirty vacuum and 16 dollar button ups. Super overpriced

I was really not impressed with the store. I went to purchase a pot with a lid as the handle on my old pan broke off and I need a new one. My kitchen stuff is high quality but stored away as I am awaiting a move. I wanted something I could use for a few weeks before getting my stuff out of storage. I went in and I only found one pot. It was very used, the nail on the handle was rusty and it was being sold for $5. The pot was being sold alone and you need to buy a lid separately with prices ranging from $2 to $10. Meaning that the entire pot could cost anywhere from $7 to $15. I am not paying that much for something that I could get new for a few more dollars. I could go to TJ Maxx and get the same size pan for about $17 and the lid will actually fit. I will not be coming back to this store. I felt disappointment in the prices and quality of items. I don't want to buy the used items at prices that rival new purchases. I'll be getting my used pan from a different thrift store. I'm giving two stars because although things were overpriced they did have a few neat items. read more

Good deals can be found here! The sidewalk discounts are what caught my eye while driving by. A variety of items.

My son and I were unknowingly locked into this store an hr before the store closed. Because there is no public bathroom and I have a health condition we needed to quickly leave. After I was unable to purchase the items I had planned on purchasing due to their minimum purchase amount, I explained I was leaving to use the restroom and would be right back, I asked her to hold my items behind the counter. This seemed to infuriate the already rude and very unfriendly clerk but I said thank you and started to walk towards the door. She says she had to unlock the front door of this business which had multiple customers in it. I asked why the door was locked and she very gruffly said, "because we are closing soon" and shook her head with a look of disgust. I was just focused on leaving due to my health condition so I said ok and waited for her to unlock the door so my son and I could leave. She then proceeded to unlock the FRONT door for several minutes but was not able to get the lock open. I then was very concerned that my child and I had been imprisoned in this business without our knowledge and I also knew it was so dangerous that we would not have been able to exit had there been an emergency. As a person who suffers from severe PTSD, I was starting to panic knowing we could not get out. The clerk then angrily said, "I will just unlock the other one and very quickly turned and disappeared from my site in order to get to another door. I am disabled and walk with a limp and could not keep up with her fast pace. Finally I got to where she went to the other door (in the overcrowded) furniture department and was met with bookshelves blocking that door. There was very little room to maneuver through the shelves and wall and to find that entrance locked AND blocked just made everything worse. I am appalled by several things from my visit this afternoon. The clerks horrible attitude and customer service would've been easy to get past but I cannot believe we were all LOCKED IN a business with no knowledge an hr prior to closing and then to find the second entrance BLOCKED is unbelievable. Had there been a fire or a shooting or any other emergency, everyone in that store wouldve been at risk of being unable to get to safety. Not to mention, if there were a reason rescue personnel or law enforcement needed to access the building in an emergency, they would've also been unable to do so. I have always loved this store and the employees for years now but after today, I no longer feel safe going there. I felt trapped and completely disrespected by the clerk. I also feel that she locked those doors in an act of discrimination. My son has facial piercings and was wear a heavy metal band black t-shirt with black pants. I feel she targeted him as a thief based on his appearance. Everyone else in there were older adults. The door was not locked when we got there but suddenly 20 mins later it was. This all happened at 4:30pm. The store closes at 5:30pm according to their posted hrs. Business doors are to remain unlocked according to OSHA and the fire code. I hope for the safety of future customers Orphans follows the fire code laws. Thankfully no emergency happened today. I will take my business elsewhere to a place that follows the safety codes. Hopefully the customer service is vastly better too. Shame on Orphans Exchange. ​ read more

I was very pleased with my purchase and the cost of the merchandise I left the store with!

Went there recently for the first time and I was pleasantly surprised! They have sidewalk sale items that are extremely low priced. I got two picture frames in great condition for fifty cents each! They have a large amount of merchandise even though the store appears to be small from the outside. They even have furniture, rugs, and lots of household stuff. They carry most everything the other stores do but you can find some great bargains too. I will definitely go back! read more

Sad store! The merchandise is dirty and torn. Overpriced. Manager is rude. read more

This was the first time I shopped there. It was a lot bigger than I thought. The store was well organized and everything was priced. They had various items from housewares to clothes, gift wrap, toys and furniture. I thought some prices were a little high, but when I checked out was told everything was half off. I probably would have bought more if I knew that earlier. I would go back again. read more

Everything here is dirty, torn and just very very poor quality. I understand that it's a thrift store, but Albuquerque has a lot and this one has some of the worst quality stuff. Even if "Everything is 50% off" it's still expensive for how old/worn it is. read more

Great store! NOTHING here is "torn and dirty" -- that's a spiteful lie. I'm an aficionada of thrift stores and this one's among the best. Top quality used goods meticulously arranged, and all the categories of stuff you could want. (Somebody's just plain malicious to say otherwise.) Clean store and nice staff -- everything 50% off -- what's not to like? See for yourself! read more
