I recently cleaned out my closet and took some clothes to Plato's Closet to see how the process worked. I wasn't expecting a big payout, but I was surprised to be offered only $9 for a pair of Miss Me jeans I'd only worn twice and still looked nearly new. They said some items weren't accepted because they were too worn or they already had a lot of similar stock that hadn't sold. To me, that felt off, considering I saw American Eagle jeans on the floor that were clearly much more worn. I'm sharing this for anyone who's thinking of making the trip--just keep your expectations in check! read more

took some black jeans and made me wait just to be told that they dont accept skinny jeans.

Service was frustrating, I went to pay for my items and as the cashier was holding my money she said "there's a sale in a hour and a half you guys should have just waited, you could've saved a whole 40%" and then cashes me out. If you're going to tell someone about a sale you should let the customer in on it instead of being like , sorry bout your luck read more

This Plato's Closet has one of the best customer service than any other Plato's Closet an employee named Katie helped me so much as she did not mind helping me and she answered every question I had with much enthusiasm she really is a great example of amazing customer service read more

I always love the idea of recycled clothing. This also makes fashion affordable to most everyone .

They posted on Facebook that they were in need of plus size clothing and fall clothing. I had 3 bags of exactly that. When I brought it in, they only took in a shirt and a pair of sneakers... that the clothes I brought on were "not in style and they're very selective about the clothes they pick." They're selective about their clothing, but are selling white pants with a pee stain on it ? Right. Never again. read more

See all

They only wanted to give me $50 for 15 items of clothing and 4 were gymshark . 3 still had tags ‍ When the girl went to delete the gymshark from my buy two of them weren't even pulling up in the system which means they tried to steal 2 gymshark items from me . This place is a rip off !!! IF YOU SALE HERE CHECK YOUR ITEMS BEFORE U LEAVE !!!!! read more

The staff in this place is beyond annoying. I know that it's hard to find people to actually show up to work these days but gleaning your sales staff from a nursery school isn't working out. The girl that I was served by ignored me for over an hour while she chatted up someone on FaceTime and when I finally got her attention it seemed like I was taking her away from her career as an influencer. Don't shop here and don't expect anything better. read more

Came in to sell several designer denim pieces and a few polos. Was offered 15$ fair enough I kept them. And observed a pair of shorts that sells at Walmart new for 6.88 priced here at 10$... buyer beware . read more

I mean great store and concept but the staff just be out here pissin people off. the staff he will ruin my day just off of the sheer lack of commitment and give a d@mn about their jobs. read more

We went in today and tried to sell clothes. The staff was extremely rude and had a attitude with my mom and I. They said "You don't have to sell to us" which is horrible customer service and looks bad on their business. We will not be coming back. read more

I bought an item tonight and was in a rush and the girl that checked me out was the worse candidate to do it , literally the slowest and trash at customer service . Very unprofessional. Do better Plato's , you're wasting your money paying these types of girls. read more

some customer in the dress room said we were to loud and was being rude to us and my mom went to go yell at her and the employee said we need to leave and wouldnt let us check out. she was a bitch read more

Pretty disappointed with this Plato's location. I've used Plato's Closet many times in longview, mesquite, dallas and so on with no issues. I came in with one bag of items to hopefully sell. There were 4 workers in the store on a Sunday around lunch time and somehow it took about an hour and a half for them to get to my things. At the end of the sale, they tell you what they can purchase and what they will not. The worker was trying to explain why they didn't purchase all of my things and said "unfortunately some of your things were just basic." I will be using Poshmark in the future. The hassle of packing and shipping sounds a lot better than waiting an hour and a half to sell a handful of items for 20$..... read more

Came in today and was not greeted by any of the workers. I asked for a dressing room to which the worker (Shelby) made it seem like this was an issue and an annoyance to her. Shelby once again checked me out and never spoke or gave eye contact once. Even the shift supervisor did not say a word. read more

terrible service will never come back here again. I worked there for about three months and they treated me terribly the managers gossip about other employees behind their, very unprofessional in my eyes. When I worked there, I went to go donate my mother's clothes and she does smoke cigarettes and they smelled like cigarettes so I wasn't able to donate that. I took them back and didn't sell their understandable. Then a couple months after I left there I went to go donate some more clothes I sent my boyfriend in there to go sell the clothes for me because I don't want to speak to those people. They said they would not take the clothes because they had a sense of smell cigarette smell on. which is wrong because before I went to Plato's, we went uptown, cheapskate another place where you donate clothes and get money for them they took a few of my items did not complain about a cigarette smell whatsoever, but when I went to go take them to donate Plato's closet. They said they smelled cigarettes and would not take a single piece of clothing. they also threatened to give me a ride up when I work there because my ride waited in the parking lot for me and they said it was a distraction when he's waiting for me in the parking lot I don't know. read more

I will never shop at this store again. The item I was purchasing had a matching sticker and description on both pieces. When I got to the counter they said it wasn't the right price and wanted to charge me $15.00 more! You are legally obligated to charge the price shown. It is not my fault that your staff may have messed up. read more

This place was a waste of my time and drive to come here. The clothes/shoes on the rack had way more wear and tear to them than ANYTHING I brought in and they refused to take some of MY items because they had "blemishes" on them. These clothes I brought in were hardly worn if worn at all and did not have hardly any blemishes on them because I made sure of that. I've brought things to Platos Closet before and I'm aware of what they do and don't accept. They had nothing even close to what the items in store had on them. The staff just seemed super busy and overwhelmed and I think that's the reason they didn't want to look through or accept half the stuff I brought in. Which is fine, but I've had better service at other platos closets that I've donated too so I will not be back to this one. read more

For starters, the employees are VERY rude. they give judgemental looks when you come in, and are extremely picky with what they buy from you! You would think being picky would make the selection good, but no. lots of the clothes will have rips, stains, holes, etc. Why would i pay $12 for a shirt that is stained and has two holes in it?? Also on the topic of being picky, when i go in with my freshly washed clothes they like to give them back to me and tell me that they have a funky oder?? i'm not about to buy an expensive detergent just because this store doesn't like how my CLEAN clothes smell. also why are you sniffing my clothes? kinda creepy just sayin. I'd much rather make the drive and go to ANY other plato's closet (if i even continue to sell & shop here) read more

Meh. I've come here less and less since they have moved so far out. I doubt I'll be in anymore. The clothes are worse and worse every time. Maybe people don't sale here anymore because there are so many other ways to make more money for their things. Or maybe they just figure the little bit of pocket change they get for selling isn't worth it and just donate? Either way there hasn't been anything worth coming in for in at least a year. Everything is either scuffed up, stretched out, faded, stained, or someone shrunk it lol it's kind of like when you look in your closet and say to yourself " why in the hell did I buy this it's so ugly" , this store is full of other peoples mistake purchases. Go in, look around if you must, but I'd advise you to bring a jacket, for some reason the store is ridiculously cold every time I've been. read more

I brought in a couple of expensive designer brand jeans and they refused to even look at them because "I didn't bring them in a container"? That's the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. There is no common sense in this statement or policy. Don't bother wasting your time bringing clothes here. Just donate them to goodwill. read more

Words can not explain how upset me and my boyfriend where that we had to wait 3 hours to hear something on clothes we brought in. When the machine said it was going to be a 1 and half hour wait. We got there at 3:30 and came back at 5:40 to look around and even bought a few things. Well my name was on the screen saying that I had one bin pending. So I just figured they where super busy and needed extra time. Well 6:40 rolled around so me and my boyfriend walked up to check out and they where explaining some of the exchange items... well the lady walks to get my exchange paper and says they're not taking any of the items which is fine but why did I have to wait 3 hours just to hear they weren't even going to take anything. They where also very unprofessional talking about how understaffed and stressed they where. Then talking about how the manager was going to yell at them and talking crap about the manager to other employees loud enough to where customers could hear them. I'm just gonna stick to Longview's Plato they are picky but atleast they give better customer service and don't just hold your items for 3 hours without telling you even when your standing there. That is what made up upset is that we had dinner plans and could not make them because we where told our wait would be 1 hour long when it turned into 3 because the employee did not click a button to let us know. Waste of time for sure. read more

Friendly staff, good clothes, reasonable prices. Lots of interesting jewelry and accessories. The shoe selection was surprisingly good; I'll definitely come back. read more

Honestly, the workers are so rude and have no sense of customer service. I have brand new clothes and they didn't accept because they are "out of date." I bought them brand new 4 months ago.... I decided to test them and bought a shirt from them. I brought it back a month later and they said that it's not "in style" anymore ???? read more

I have bought many clothes here and have not been disappointed. Pricing can be a bit weird at times but overall a great experience. Perfect for people that do not want to spend a fortune on new clothing. read more

The clothes at this plato's were nice and priced fairly, but they have almost no selection in larger sizes. Getting them to buy anything off of you was like an act of congress. Disappointed, I traveled 35 miles with 3 boxes of clothes. They only bought two items and I got 5.00. read more

The 2 articles of clothing they purchased has been in my closet for a couple years, and a few articles they didn't buy you can CURRENTLY go buy at rue. Not recommended. Happens every time. read more

I've tried taking things here 3 times and they just waste your time. The 1st time they told me it would be a 30min wait, ended up being a 4hour wait having to come back 4 times in one day wasting gas, then they said wouldn't take any of the clothes. I get home and look thru the bag and there are 4 pieces of clothes missing, they took them and didn't pay me for them... Go back the 2nd time and have a bag full a brand new purses, tags still on they only offer $14 for all 6 that are NWT tags are marked $40-$60... Go in today and they have the purses I sold them from $35-$50... While in today I also took in 2 huge bags full of barely worn clothes, over 75items mainly all hollister and american eagle, ect. They only accepted 7 of the items, when I asked why they didn't want any of the hollister ,A&f, or American Eagle jeans they said that they were too worn... The only thing remotely wrong with any of them were a few stings at the bottom from wear. Yet when you look at the clothes they have on the rack they are all worn more then what mine are and stained and ripped. They have stuff in there that is just filthy and disgusting looking for way over price. Most the stuff looks old and out dated and they want more for it then its worth. Save your money and go buy new clothes at Ross or hit up the clearance racks at the mall, you'll end up spending less for new clothes then buying used stained up grungy clothes here. The staff is always rude and have attitudes. After looking thru the clothes that they rejected today turns out that there's clothes missing that weren't in the clothes they accepted, this is twice now that they've taken clothes and didn't pay me for them. I'm done with this place, I recommend to all of you that you stay as far away from this shop as you can. read more
