    They profiled my friend and I saying some bs that they need to hold our personal bags behind the counter. I can tell she doesn't practice this script for the "policy" she was describing. She was making it up on the spot stumbling over her words like I'm sure you'll get them back, like, what? You're sure? The store was disorganized and the female staff was unfriendly and didn't want to sell or help us find what we were looking for, no styling help of any kind or building a look nothing. Told us to go to their sister store across the street, was pretending to be busy even though they didn't close for another 2 hours. I feel like this was very unprofessional and not the customer service we're used, most of the time the girls are helpful in building a look but I guess they don't care about that. My friend bought a pair of shoes with no refunds or returns and when we asked about belts she told us to go across the street to their sister store. At that point I was really offput by their "policy" and can't see myself ever coming back in here. I've never been asked to have my personal bag held at the counter while shopping, that sounds like a serious liability and can expose them to litigation. Everything in the store is cheaply made and the store smells like second hand

    What an amazing shop! I was looking for a pink costume and stumbled upon this gem in the area. The staff were so sweet and attentive, making the whole experience even better. They carry a wonderful selection of clothing and accessories, all at very reasonable prices.

    This is a truly fun shop. As the name implies, what they offer is a lot of very interesting retro orientated clothing. But, much more than that, they have all kinds of other interesting items. If you're looking for that 70s style wig, this is your place. If you want those platform shoes, you can buy them here. They really have a lot of ever-changing inventory. Though they do have men's clothing at this business, it seems that they mostly focus on women's apparel. They have a lot of very interesting flapper-era clothing items, as well as a good collection of 70s orientated stuff. But, and most importantly, due to the ever-changing nature of what they offer, you never know what you'll find, making coming to this place always an interesting experience. The shop is very clean. The staff are very nice and helpful. If you're looking for that unique item of clothing and/or jewelry or that something else you never expected to find, this is your shop.

    Found this place on...where else...yelp, and it was PERFECT. I needed an outfit for the 1920s party (see my yelp review) and Retro Reload was organized, friendly, and had a great selections of items. I already had the dress, just needed headpiece and gloves. They had both, in different colors and options. Everything is organized by decade, so easy to find what you need. They played 50s rock and roll, and the cashier was dressed in vintage clothing and listened attentively as my dad (who came with me) talked her ear off about the 50s and "his generation". That is going above and beyond! Thank you, retro reload, for the finishing touches to a perfect outfit! Got lots of compliments!

    I was in the area and drawn by the sidewalk, after Christmas pajama sale - $2/each. When I walked inside, I realized this is a great vintage clothing store, with a few new items littered throughout. Mostly women's clothing and accessories. If you're looking for a costume for that '70's party, go-go boots and all, or a flapper dress for that '20's themed party, this is definitely the place to shop. The store is bright and colorful. The staff are pleasant and friendly. A wide selection. I bought a couple pairs of pajamas and an adorable black dress with a teddy bear in the pocket. Love it. Even if you're not looking to purchase anything in particular, it's a fun place to look around and window shop.

    Fun store and great prices! Men's stuff is a bit pricey compared to women's stuff, but the quality is what counts. I was helped by Stephanie who was a doll! Found me stuff for Disneyland's Dapper Day and my dress was $10! The gloves $6-ish and added a hat too, which I think was $9. 40's/ 50's vintage on one side, 60's /70's on another with a whole lot of everything in between, they offer wigs, eyelashes extensions and proper hairstyling. Hidden gem is right!! Parking behind the building or the staff said next door is ok too.

    I love Retro Reload!! This is the only store in the South Bay that sells vintage clothes based on each generation. They always help me slay my Freddie Mercury look. The staff is very helpful and personable! The stock is rotated to be kept fresh, seasonal,and exciting. Come inside and check out their 80's themed wonderlust. Maybe you need some accessories for your next disco or rave? Blast to the past with retros amazing jewelry!

    Best deal of the day !!

    Hello there! I have vintage and current clothes to consign along with jewelry. What is the process to consign? Thanks, Susan

    Do they have iron on patches or appliqués? Looking for 80s like butterfly patches for denim

    They had some when I went a few weeks ago. They have pins from the 80s too I think. Good luck!
