Very clean and beautiful venue! I've been to Plato's Closet in other cities (love the stores) and this one was so pleasant! The pricing in this store/location was really reasonable compared to other stores I've been too! The staff were visible and present, very helpful and professional. This point is very important to me, it added to the short visit. I was with my sister and she was able to get two hats for $11 in total - great selection and quality. read more

This second hand clothing store have really nice and trendy clothing for a great discount. Purses and shoes would look like they're off of a fashion boutique. They do buy, sell and trade. read more

I used to love this store, but it feels like the quality of the clothing they chose really is not at all the same as it used to be. When I did pick up items I found holes or tears which made me weary about any item I did end up wanting to take. I feel that Plato's could be more careful/selective with the clothing they chose to purchase. read more

Wow. This store is awesome! I love the clothes... it's very much affordable! They sell brand stuff like Nike, Calvin Klein, Polo and so much more! Its definitely cheaper than some thrift stores I've been to and it's also really clean and organized. I will definitely be coming back :) read more

I went in over a week ago when this location re-opened to the public. When I payed for my items, I was told that when my card was originally swiped that it did not go through and the transaction had been voided. I continued with my transaction, successfully swiping my card a second time, and left. I waited the standard 7-10 days to see a voided charge on my account but it didn't appear on my bank statement. I went to the store to speak with someone about the situation but was told that a supervisor wasn't available to rectify it. I left my name and number but have still not been contacted. My account still has not been credited for the transaction that was "voided". I'm not angry but I would appreciate it if businesses didn't charge me a second time for merchandise that I already paid for. read more

I love this place! My friend always talked about going but we normally ended up at the same 3 places to shop. Finally we have this one a try. I fell in love! I was so pleased with the variety of clothes for all body shapes and sizes. It's nice having a store that offers for women with curves as well as small and petite. I will definitely be back. The only thing I would change are the dressing rooms. It feels very small and hard to change in them if you're taller. read more

First time here after hearing about it for many years. I was pleased with customer service and got exactly what I was looking for - a brand new skirt particular to my style. Def will spend more time looking through the "finds." Very unique store. read more

Plato's Closet - A unique piece of clothing - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - El Paso, Texas

It's difficult to give Plato's any more than a 2. I had brought in several clothes to sell. These clothes were not old by any means & most had been hardly worn (I had recently lost weight). I filled up the basket as instructed and was advised it would be about 30 minutes. Once I came back image my surprise when I was told that the would only except one pair (which just happened to be the which was never worn & still had the tags on them). I was given $4.95 cents for the one pair which barley paid for my gas up and back. Plato's needs to be more specific when a customer calls inquiring about what clothes they will accept. Apparently they want near new clothes. I was told that some of the jeans were faded. Pardon me have you ever heard of faded jeans which you can purchase at any stores. This will be my first & last visit to Plato's. read more

The service is unbearable, as the workers are rude, sloppy, and with various attitudes. Coming here your bound to see the terrible respect. They don't wash their clothes if you are trying to donate they will use cheap excuses as it smells like smoke or pet hair, as i brought in brand new clothes to test them. do not recommend to anyone. read more

I read the reviews prior and wasn't sure what to expect. I took in several clothes, only 2 were taken, however Valerie at the front desk was super helpful and very friendly anyway. I really wasn't expecting much anyway and she at least took the time to explain why she couldn't take the rest and used what she could take toward my purchase at the store. I only give a 4 Star cause a while back I brought in Coach sandals and they would give me 6-7$ for and then I sold em on eBay for 20. Otherwise make sure you see Valerie! She's very friendly. read more

I heard about this place on the radio and was curious...I went in because I was going to a store in the same shopping center. So much stuff in there. This is a great store for anyone on a budget or who has teens. Nearly everything in the store is next to new and in great shape. There are so many name brand items! This place is such a wonderful idea and just what El Paso needed. I found so many items that still had the tags on them and I purchased tons of things at a great price.. A must see for anyone who loves nice clothes at a great price! read more

Honestly I think this is one of the nicer Plato's I've been to in a while. Everything is spaced out, it's really clean and the items they have are in great condition. I also sold some of my stuff and they gave me a decent amount back for only taking 9 items. read more

I have been to this place many times now and when it comes to selling it's very unpredictable. Their taste in clothing is questionable because every time I look around they have a lot of dirty items (shoes mostly) it makes no sense, because that's always the reason they don't take my clothing because of stains. Last time I tried to sell to them I bought a dress I wore not to long ago to a wedding a beautiful lacy teal dress. Once again they told me they couldn't take any of my stuff so as I was grabbing my dress one of the girls that worked there seriously asked me "are you still going to take that?" It's obvious to me that someone wanted my dress but they weren't willing to pay me for. I was completely flabbergasted. I won't be going back ever. read more

The staff was very friendly and welcoming! The clothes they purchased from me was very fair. I will be coming to sell my clothes here more often and recommend to friends as well. It is also a great place to shop! read more

rude, and they wont give you anything for your items, i made much more on the offer up and let go apps, and i even made more $$$ on ebay. they just want you to give them stuff. read more

This place is a joke when it comes to buying your clothes, if you don't know the employees personally don't expect them to take your items. My first time selling clothes they rejected almost everything with an excuse that it had stains when they didn't have any. So I decided to buy some items from there and try to sell them back to them the next day, and guess what, they didn't take them!!! I will not be shopping there any longer. read more

First trip to Platos closet for my cousin and I. It was a success! Very clean, nice staff, and bunch of goodies!!! I usually thirft at Savers and Once Upon a Child but will be adding Plato's to my list! read more

My wife has bought clothes here for years and has always enjoyed this place. Upon trying to sell things, most items they refused to buy and the few things they were willing to buy, they were giving us next to nothing for. This ruined the experience after years of being loyal customers. read more

Smells horrible in there , can't tell who are the employees & they were not helpful. Badly organized with the clothing products.

So I went with a bag full of clothes not in a bad condition all were good brand and very clean taken care of and at the end they only got like 5 things telling me they're not taking T-shirt's or dresses like ok making me lose my time, why do You advertise in the radio, "bring your clothes blabla" read more

If there was half a star or less, I'd rate them that instead. Horrible customer service, stuck up girls.

Poorly educated employees when it comes to buying clothing. Not only with my items but other customers too from what I experienced being there. Comparing my items to the ones they have in the store.. you can notice the lack of trend knowledge they have here. Organization is a huge deal too. Nothing is ever properly arranged. I'd much rather sell my clothes at Uptown Cheapskate, where I am actually greeted, feel comfortable selling my clothes and will actually receive an offer. You can sign in on a tablet at Uptown and not a piece of paper at Plato.. which does not help the earth AT ALL. read more

Clothes are supposed to be "in style" and in "good condition".. shopping there is just nasty. It bothers me to see very minimal in style clothes and/or in good condition. Customer service needs works. I've been here multiple times and no changes. Don't recommend selling or buying here, go to the west side to uptown cheapskate instead. read more

I left confused and a bit irritated, I had done my research on Plato's closet beforehand reading that they only accepted clothes that were gently used and somewhat still in season, so beforehand I made sure my selection was in great condition. I had a bag full of Forever 21 shorts & skirts, Pacsun & Tilly's crop tops some things which were never worn with tags still on. Even a few things from Urban Outfitters. I dropped my bag off at the front and they told me it would be a little bit so I decide to shop around. To my surprise they did not except ANY of my items. I honestly could not believe it. While shopping I had seen shoes with holes and soles run down, items that had small stains on them, not that they didn't have good items few & far between. It was an alright place to shop at but definitely not a place to sell at. read more

I seriously don't know why their reviews are so bad. I liked this store and the people were really friendly. For a pair of wedges, two shirts and an old Guess blazer I got almost $30 back and although they didn't take a lot of my stuff, this amount of money is good for these few items. I'm happy I went there. read more

The Plato's Closet in Dallas is great, so I thought to give this one a try. I left angry and confused! I brought in 5 pairs of pants. One was $89 pair of Michael Kors pants, Hollister, Abercrombie&Fitch, BullHead and Aeropostale. All in great shape. No holes, rips or pulls or stains. Also had a nice dress shirt paid $25 for. I stood and watch as one girl was going through them, she was going to take all of them till another girl came over and said no to them all but the shirt! She offered $2 for the shirt too! I asked her why not the pants and she said they were not good enough! It kills me because you can look through their stuff and see shoes so worn and dirty they should be thrown away and pants/shirt/dresses that have pulls and small holes in them. Some were even pants that were clearly hand cut into "shorts" The owner's need to rethink what they want the girls to take in and tell them to check their rudeness at the door! If I could contact the owners directly I would.(They also own the Once Upon A Child next to Plato's) read more

I'm a father who helped my daughter take some clothes she no longer used after moving back into town. I am a retired retail executive of 30 years and understand the concept which does offer a value. The store seemed neat clean and organized. The prices seemed inexpensive and the items were current and in season. The concern is the training and professionalism of the staff. The dress of the sales clerk at the counter was a white bikini top covered by an oversized t-shirt and skin tight denim jeans that was far from reflecting the stylish look they represent and sell to customers. The young ladies that attended us seemed less than friendly and did not explain any details of their requirements or any conditions on taking items. After reading the previous Yelp reviews, it is apparent many unsatisfied people were not aware either. To make a long story short, 90% of what we took was rejected because they said it was damp or had an odor which they did not. The process is subjective and could be construed as a personal issue by the sales person or manager making the decision. Not a solid basis to run this business model successfully. read more

Don't waste your time on this place. One star only & only because the website insists on some kind of rating in order to post. The staff was rude, unprofessional & of no help whatsoever. Their clothing choice is ugly, dirty, NOT gently used & most of it belongs in the trash. read more

Looks like they have a great selection and a big store. But not good to sell to (although they do trade). They give you hardly anything! I brought in two dresses six tops three pants ( one with a 25$ tag still on) and they offered $17... Ummm good joke! read more

When i went to try on some pants no one was back there to let me in the dressing room. The ladies working in their were socializing and texting in the front. read more

Great finds for some workout clothes! Low prices & some brand names. Worth the stop if you're looking for some affordable clothing that sometimes even still has the new tags on!! read more

terrible get some new workers or something cause these people don't know shit about fashion i took several clothes and shoes the shoes were almost new they only took 2 pairs of shoes which were only worn like 2 times and some shirts and these fuckers only gave me 16 dollars like wtf,the other clothes was perfectly fine it's wasn't torn or nothing. i've seen several hideous shirts and pants in that store but yet they can't accept anything of what i take,this is absolute bullshit never going back there ever again read more

This is a very nice store and has quite the variety surprisingly! Highly recommend it to everybody.

This place is the worst to go sell clothes to I went in trying to sell jeans that were brand new never worn only tried on with the price tag on them still and they tried giving me $6 for $36 jeans it was ridiculous never going there ever again. read more

I took a bag of clothes in excellent condition nothing was stained or torn some of the clothes were still in style they took 4 shirts and a pair of jeans and offered me $7. I don't think so!! I just took all my stuff gave to charity instead!!! They have really cool stuff but I don't buy anything because the staff is rude. read more

Very bad custom service. I took my clothes in to sell and all items they didn't want were thrown into bags and given back like trash. As I stood at the counter folding my items not one employee offered to help me. I'm very disappointed by the lack of respect and common curtesy shown here. I won't be back. read more

i drive 30 mins to come here instead of the one on the west side. very friendly, lots more clothes to choose from.
