I have a love / hate relationship with Goodwill in Auburn. Their selection is often great! However,…read moretheir prices have skyrocketed. Lower priced items here are often more expensive than to purchase new. They had some yarn that seemed marked up - I checked Walmart and it's less expensive new. I found the manager who handles pricing, explained that it's cheaper New from Walmart. His response? "Well this is Goodwill, not Walmart!". Indeed. A donations-driven nonprofit engaging in price gouging. Other outrageous pricing I've seen - beat up LLBean clothing being sold for twice the cost of similar apparel, damaged goods that they refuse to discount, etc. Soooo, maybe try an independent thrift store first. And please check prices on your phone! Or stick to the sale tag colors! Finally, consider donating elsewhere because while this place is mission driven, they're certainly making us customers pay more to increase already inflated upper management salaries - you can look that up.

was very pleased! looking for a large rolling duffel and got lucky and found a nice quality used…read morered rolling duffel for a reasonable $10. Especially when looking new and expecting to pay huge amount more! knowing people shop at Goodwill since they are pinching pennies, the store does carry new items often the Big Lots type deals on either new cheap (both quality and price) clothing (shoes boots), accessories (gloves socks) as well as household items like aluminum wrap and zip locks. Even though we could not find a decent pair of snow boots for my daughter, the Sorels we saw for $25 for overpriced for such interior damage to the boot, she appropriately said no. Anyway thrift store shopping is always hit and miss but since i got a good hit with the duffel, I am happy.

We called here to see if we could have a brass bell engraved. They were confident in their answer…read morein being able to engrave it so we dropped the bell off with them. We called to check on the bell and first were told the girl who could work on it didn't come in until 10 one morning and they would call us with an update. I'm sure there was some confusion with myself calling and my husband being the person they called back however, after we called to check again on the bell, we were told that they engraved it, didn't like how it came out, buffed it, and would be re-engraving it. Once again, when we called to check on it, we were told that the girl that did engraving didn't work on Mondays. Then, next thing we know, they are telling us they can no longer engrave it. I understand that unpredictable situations occur and perhaps my perception of the experience is a bit different, but we were told they could do something and then after apparently doing work, could no longer perform the service requested. It just felt a bit off... everyone was friendly when we would call so nothing against the employees, just ended up being a situation that set us back on this project (a gift) a few weeks longer than we would have liked and just seemed like we were being given false information.

I took my four diamond rings to get appraised. For insurance purposes due to a recent fire we had…read more Knowing that Diamonds only appreciate as well as gold and platinum are high right now. When the appraisals came back I had to laugh on how ridiculous the appraisals were. They were less than half of what was paid when purchased and with the the authenticity paperwork showing it was a numbered Hearts on fire cut, perfect cut, perfect clarity. Looking at the paperwork for the rings all four papers were exactly the same wording with the appraisal price typed in. The rings were four completely different rings. There was no description of any of the rings beside size. I got them reappraised by two other places after, with them coming out higher than purchased price, and the two other places matched each other. My point.... Don't spend the money to appraise them there and don't believe them especially if you want to sell them to them!

The last few times I been in the store, there have been boxes wrapped in plastic and what appears to be the materials to rebuild a wall display without anyone around them. It's as if someone was going to start to put the display together, stopped and never returned to it. There are a number of clothing racks that have clothes just thrown onto it or on the floor. Employees walk by it and ignore the appearance which makes it look like you are at a thrift store. Kohl's is supposed to be reputable from a corporate standpoint, but the leadership at this location don't care about the appearance. I personally would not buy clothes that was thrown on the the floor or into the display. The only area in the store where appearance and cleanliness is maintained is Sephora which appears to have driven some excitement by many given their reputation. The one positive about my last visit is I forgot my Kohl's card, which I rarely use, and they were able to look me up in the system (after handing them my photo ID) and I could apply my purchase onto the card without having it with me. Other than that, the store is in shambles and quite honestly I am shocked it's still open given I can't imagine its raking in the money the same way its stores are in other locations.

I called to asked if they could hold some foundation and lady was so nice on the phone she walked to and got somebody to help me over the phone and was able to get the product I needed and put it on hold at the register for my husband to pick up. At this point I work nights so he went out during the day to go get it and what do you think happened NO SERVICE! Did he get the make up no why because nobody there would help him and swear they did not have nothing for him! So when he gets back home I call the store where when the girl picked it up the phone she said "oh yes ma'am I have it right here!" So the manager gets on the phone says they did everything possible called my husband a lier and then I was given the phone back for the man to hang up. All I can say is hanging up on people is the perfect customer service when you are wrong!
