PROS: fantastic finds, cheap prices, lots of inventory. Two huge floors, the main floor is…read moreknickknacks and home goods, the second floor is clothing. There's a whole aisle of clothes per size which is awesome and there was a ton of each type of clothes. I only looked in the women's sections but compared to other Unique locations I've gone to, this one was super stocked up on dresses and bottoms (which are usually sparse at other locations) and of course shirts, workout clothes, etc. There's also an elevator available to customers, dressing rooms, bathrooms, and full sized carts not just the small ones you pull behind you. CONS: The neighborhood is very busy and had many people asking for money on the street, there is only street parking and some lots around the area but you have to pay to park (the lots aren't expensive but can be hard to find), the store was very hot especially on the second floor. There were big fans on but I was still sweating while slowly walking through the store and shopping. Overall, I would definitely go back.

Most everything about this store is terrible. Prices are erratic with many vintage items regardless…read moreof condition priced over $30 And others over $50 or even $100. Other items are cheap despite being valuable. Items sometimes still have the original store price on them and it is often lower than the thrift price which is insane. The store is littered with broken items still priced high. Knockoffs are priced like the real deal. Items with little value like Hummel figures are bagged and priced outrageously high even with heads broken off or hands missing. So many items are bagged and you cannot see what is in the bag. Identical items are split up and spread around the store. Items that should be sold together are priced separately and irrationally. I once saw two identical items in two different locations. One was priced at $8 and the other at $26. Neither was worth even the lower price.

But to charge a high price is contrary to its mission and purpose and it is ridiculous to charge a pretty penny for damaged goods. $20 for a broken Hummel? Outrageous prices for Lenox that no one wants? Seriously?

It is orderly, clean, and has a hard-working staff. Yes, they are strict but it makes the place run like a top. People of all ages go there from high schoolers following trends to folks older than I who are looking for deals. There is a rhythm to how the bins are brought out maybe every 40 minutes. They now have all the housewares and shoes in shelves along all the walls and you can browse to your heart's content. There is competition for the clothes but I have only seen two loud "discussions" between buyers which the workers quickly ended. Yes, once or twice people had a wallet stolen so don't leave it in the seat of your cart. Most wear crossbody bags. No food or drink allowed. The etiquette of the place is simple, pick a sheet or towel from a bin and cover your shopping cart of stuff. Have not seen or heard of anyone rummaging through others' stuff. Have had no issue myself. Be aware that your shopping carts must now be parked in the back of the big room. You cannot approach the bins with them but people do use Ikea bags and Hulken- like shopping bags on wheels. Usually good quality merch though we all know stuff is being syphoned off at the donation point. Goodwill sells it on line. The resellers still come here and seem to be satisfied. I was a reseller but not any longer due caring for my 99 year old mother. I have been to five other Bins but I like this one best.

All other clothing gets sent to a facility to be used in textile recycling or thrift store use which the organization receives money for so they can purchase much needed clothing items.
