Oh Atomic Garage... it's a shame you don't have more reviews in general... I just had to review…read moreyou. Atomic Garage is an amazing vintage clothing and vintage store in the trendy area in Des Moines... the owner/manager is super chill and a fun person who takes her vintage clothes seriously. Their selection is awesome and reasonably priced for how rare some of it is. It's definitely a great place to stop in when you're in town... and an even better place to stop in when you need a badass outfit to go to a formal event with. It's super well organized and just an overall fun store to walk around. The only reason I took a star off is because some of the stuff isn't for sale. It's only for rent... and that disappointed me. I don't live in town, so I couldn't rent the incredible options of suits/tuxedos that they sell there.

I stopped in today for the first time and was pleasantly surprised by how everything was sorted and…read moreorganized so well. I asked one of the women working at the register if they had any graduation gowns, as the only one I could find was for someone way taller than me and had a broken zipper. She went above and beyond to find me one from the back that was absolutely perfect!

They moved to the current store a few years ago, giving them more room for the merchandise. Very happy & I love Maurices line for reasonable stylish priced apparel! Only problem, sometimes they sell out fast... and there has been a few times item couldn't be found from another chain store...

Good selection, but terrible customer centrism by the owner. The problem is that the owner would…read morenot honor what an associate told a customer about a returnable item. My mother-in-law is in a cast due to wrist surgery and an associate told her it was no problem to pay for the clothes and try them on at home where she could have more assistance and privacy and then just return what she didn't like or what didn't fit. She tried on the clothes that night and then brought the ones back that didn't fit or weren't what she wanted the next day by noon. The owner was NOT customer centric at all and simply recited the policy written on the receipt. While this may be a perfectly normal procedure, it is completely ridiculous when an associate specifically told her that she could return them due to the extenuating circumstances of her arm in a cast that the owner would not honor what their employee told a customer. Especially since without the associate's comment she would not have spent $200.00. Moral of the story: Expect the owner to choose policy recital over good, common business sense and quality customer service.

The…read morereason I give them a 2 star review is because the sales person was not friendly or helpful at all . I had a shirt I wanted to try on. Since so many places don't have open dressing rooms, I asked if I could try the shirt on. She rudely said that the dressing room is over there. These were the only words she spoke to me the entire time I was there. I just left the shirt and asked out. I was just visiting Des Moines for a few days, but would never go back to Worn

Some people think it is overpriced, some do not. You can still receive comparative bargains for new items. Today it was two weighted blankets for $20, at least 50% lower than new at Walmart, not sure if that is their norm. I did not buy today. I have not been interested in buying anything there in a while, but I am also finally downsizing and more likely to take items in. Often see used, but retail bedding. I think it is a good place to find items you need for setting up a household. Regardless, twice monthly 50% off days are bargains and the parking lot will be full. Compare to some thrift stores they are higher priced, others lower priced. I believe they have a clothing credit for people in need. It appears there has recently been a turnover in staff and volunteers, and I am not sure what that is about. TBH, there have been many changes with Caring Hands in the last five years. TBH, a lot of the local donors don't have much to give and will donate crappy pieces. Caring Hands has to sort through that. Last I heard they donate the worst to DAV. Facebook Marketplace killed the "lucky find" thrift model for a lot of small towns combined with the current economy. For those struggling to make ends meet, there is often some free bread in the thrift area, and in the summer free produce as well... to supplement anyone. I believe books are still free there, but call ahead if that interests you... you will be lucky if they answer.
