Like to look like million bucks but on a budget? Chanel, Gucci, Hermes, Fendi, Prada...they have it all on consignment. Clothing, shoes, bags, and accessories. The owner is friendly and helpful. The trick to this place is finding price tags with a red stripe for an additional 50% off. If designer duds at a discount make you happy, find your way to this hidden gem off the beaten path in Carmel. read more

I went in while visiting Carmel and wasn't expecting to buy... Ended up buying a vintage leather jacket and vintage dior necklace & bracelet set! The owner, Ava, was very kind to me and definitely made this visit worth it. We made good conversation and she even recommended me some items after seeing my selection of things. Will be buying from here again when given the chance! read more

A very pricey place for vintage clothing and accessories. Definitely not a thrift shop.

The owner of the store was super nice! The store was super cute and I would definitely recommend checking it out if you're in the area.

I have visited this shop numerous times hoping to have a great experience or even a good experience and each and every single time I walk out kicking myself for giving them another chance. I've purchased a few things here and there, but nothing that I would say is worth the feeling of borderline harassment. 1- The customer service person, whom I assume is the owner watches me like a hawk each and every single time I come in here. I am never dressed in rags or look like a hoodlum. It's not the type of watching like a hawk where I'm going to be provided with amazing service, it's the type of watching to make sure I'm not going to walk away with something look. 2- Their stuff is luxury I get it, but it's still overpriced. I'd rather save up a little more and get the item brand new. 3- Everything is so tightly packed that it's hard to look through the clothes. read more

I still have and enjoy using my Paloma Picasso handbag I bought here (in the old location) 15 years ago!

Great small place with REAL vintage and newer luxury brands. Today they had Chanel, Balenciaga, Gucci, Prada, LV, Celine, and more. Prices are not cheap but this is quality. Handbags, shoes, clothes, some jewelry and scarves. Wished I had more time (and money) I would be a regular. The owner is a little abrasive but she warms up quickly. A place to stop if you have some disposable income as everything is in wonderful shape. Grab the first on street parking spot you see! read more

Great store! I was in today and the owner Ava was so helpful. She asked if I needed help and let me shop on my own. I purchased a pair of Prada sandals- will definitely be back. Thank you Ava! read more

Always love stopping at this place when I am in town. Beautiful pieces and all in excellent condition; many do not appear used. Owner is extremely helpful and I do not know how she manages the selection she has, it's amazing. I generally find something to buy, but never feel sales pressure. read more

I don't normally review places, but I was obsessed with this cute little store. My husband and I were in Carmel for a wedding and the airline lost my luggage so I was in dire need of a dress. I was frantically running around trying to find a place and stumbled upon this gem. The employee was so helpful and so patient with me as I wasn't sure what I wanted and was super flustered. She went above and beyond to help me find the perfect dress and was not annoying with pushing different options. She was so personable and made me feel so comfortable and wasn't pushy (Ilike sometimes those stores can be). I found the perfect dress and even bought an incredible DVF clutch along with a vintage red clutch bc I couldnt resist! My only regret is that I didn't buy more! Can't wait to go back to Carmel and visit this amazing store and see the sweet lady who helped me. read more

Omg if your trying to buy a nice fur i suggest you pay this place a little visit. The owners mom was there helping us out she was very sweet. Great store with nice designer items. read more

Ritzy Ragz & Thingz - Mink - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Carmel, California

Terrific little place with all sorts of high end stuff from bags to clothing and more. I'm not a LV fan with their overrated over priced monogram, all marketing hype and thank god this ship has more. I love designer things that have been recycled in some way and this was a super fun way to spend an afternoon. I can imagine them having a lot of variety of I went in often, which I can't do since I don't live in the area. It's a shop with loads of variety and reasonable prices. read more

This is a must-stop during my trips to Carmel. If you're a fan of hunting for vintage gems or gently used name-brand goods at a bargain, Ritzy Ragz is an important resource. From J-Crew to Chanel, pret-a-porter to couture, they have a solid selection. You have to dig a bit for the more "youthful" styles, but I always find something to take home. The price tags may look high, but there is usually a sale going on (25% store-wide, for example). Even better, I always use their incredible Yelp Check-In offer - 50% off any regular priced item. This makes anything I'm on the fence about a total YES. I've bought a lovely Sandro wool sweater, J Crew slacks, and a Nanette Lepore silk tank during my trips here. Shoes & accessories are abundant, too. read more

Amazing customer service and great selection of high-end pre-loved items. I bought a vintage 1997 Fendi baguette that is a limited edition and the owner was kind enough to pull it off the rack for me on hold for a week, as I do not live near the area. The bag is in excellent condition with dust bag included. Her reputation in her business is the authentication I need. read more

My friends and I - all women of color - came into the store to browse. The employee was unwelcome to our multicultural group of younger women but more welcoming to the white clientele. She openly rolled her eyes just looking at us and practically shooed us out of the store. If you don't fit the image of typical Carmel clientele, beware. read more

Today they had 25% store wide. Didn't seem to find any blouses but found a fur vest that I will have forever for such a good price!! Best purchase I have made in a while...The associate there was sweet and gave a little extra deal on the fur! Checked in after and now have 50% off an item!! Guess I will be back. read more

Ritzy Ragz & Thingz - Fendi's for $70 - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Carmel, California

Great customer service. Her knowledge and her merchandise sold my husband to buy me two beautiful items from this store. Great products from low to high brand names that definitely won't break the bank. Thank you for being so accommodating and having that YSL clutch that brought me in! read more

Ritzy Ragz & Thingz - Amazing fur selection! Great knowledge on fur and clients' merchandise. My husband had to get this for me!! - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Carmel, California

I found this place very over priced even for consignment and so label focused, but perhaps that's a Carmel thing catering only for the rich, small store hard to see the clothes and not sorted into sizes which is a pain to have to sift through to find your size. The sales assistant though helpful was too salesy for me I like space to feel out what's good. read more

Several months ago, I brought in a few items and I discovered they had been purchased. However, when I went into retrieve my cash the lady running the store told me they had already paid me. Ava, the store owner, and her mother have both treated me rudely every time I have gone in. They have denied me multiple times and I have never been paid properly. In the end I never got my money and I will no longer be using their business. I try to support local businesses in this area but when the service is as poor as this I have to let others know. read more

Small shop on side street in downtown Carmel...it was worth the wait until they opened on Sunday! Nice designer women's attire (met my expectations of the area), at commensurate prices. Their sales bring prices to the level of getting me excited! Ask about any specials if it's not volunteered when browsing! read more

Hi Jen, It's not that I want your business to fail, it's that I want the people to think long and hard about leaving their very expensive items (like my fur coat) in your care under supposedly good security and watching, and then have it disappear without any recourse whatsoever! It is truly a warning for others like me who trusted and because of it, lost a lot of money (nearly $1500) and have nothing to show for it. I have a hard time understanding why and how your sales staff could unlock a fur, knowing it needs extra safeguarding (like any shop that carries pricey items) and not make sure they recovered it and locked it back up! Your store can only be as good as your staff and one of your staff appears like they certainly were lax for whatever reason, on the day they allowed it to be tried on and thus be stolen. read more

Well curated and a lot of the stuff is brand new. It's a small shop but a nice owner. I will stop here every time. The purse and shoe selection alone makes it worth it. read more

I have been a long term customer of Ritzy Ragz and cannot tell you how many good deals I've scored there. Practically brand new, gorgeous DVF jacket, a Tahari skirt for practically cents on the dollar when they had their coupon day and some other goodies. A Chanel case for my glasses that I needed so badly. Their staff has always been attentive and courteous. I am sure that Carol T's was an isolated incident and we cannot rate the overall qualityf of this store because of this calculated shoplifting event. Believe me, when people are out to do something, they will find a way to get it no matter how much you protect it or lock it up. My experience has been nothing but the best with Ritzy Ragz. You will find an array of vintage, modern and new items. read more

When you walk into Ritzy Rags, you're immediately greeted with a friendly welcome and an explanation of the tags that are on sale for the day. They have different colored tags that note which items are on sale. There was also an amazing $20 rack of final sale items. THere were great designer pieces on this rack too! The store has a lot of merchandise, but since it's organized by size, it makes it very manageable and you can go through the whole store in a reasonable amount of time. I found a lot of amazing designer pieces, not just your typical old school brands either like Chanel, Ferragamo, etc. But interesting newer designers like Blumarine and Nanette Lepore. I didn't end up buying anything when I visited this time, but that definitely doesn't mean I won't be back!! read more

This place had great potential, but I left empty-handed due to the astoundingly high prices.

Very organized! Prices are TOO high without a yelp deal, or coupon, but the $20 rack will have me come back again :) Great customer service.

Amazing prices and selection. I love being able to buty a silk scarf anf not feel like i paid a arm and a leg. The staff was friendly and helpful. Designer clothes as bargin prices. read more

Ritzy Rags is the best place to find designer items. The staff is welcoming. Great Customer service. I love shopping here.

I think it should be a normal for the sales associate to help the customers in the store. I guess I thought wrong when I came here. I found that when I came to this store i was ignored by the sales girl with the short blonde hair. She was too busy on Facebook and looking at watches to either bother to ask me or my sister if we needed any help. We asked her to help us find some dresses and she just told us 'there all organized according to size'. Okay but can you help us find clothes? On top of that I had 7 dresses in my hand and she never even thought to get us a room. I literately had money to burn and wanted to buy my sister a dress but i guess this was the wrong place to go to. Shoppers beware you won't receive help from here. read more

I have been both a buyer and seller with Ritzy Ragz & Things for a few years. I find the merchandise well displayed and higher quality than other consignment stores. On the selling side, I found them wonderful to deal with and they kept good track of my items. I enjoyed receiving monthly checks as items sold. Keep up the good work and keep up the high standards of brands. read more

I like this place, and everything is in good condition, but I still feel the prices are higher than they need to be, especially on the non-designer stuff, and most especially if the item is a basic and nothing special, ya know? Lots of contemporary labels, which I like--Rag & Bone, Current/Elliott, and a really big selection (especially style wise--white, bleached, skinny, wide leg) of jeans. read more

Super sweet staff, down to earth and friendly. Awesome clothing selection, good deals.

Venture in this shop only if you enjoy tightly crammed racks with overpriced merchandise or if you are into a rude owner and her sales staff. The store smells like what it is, used clothes that have not been cleaned before slapping on a high price tag. If you love being treated well then take your business elsewhere. Carmel is full of lovely shops and shopkeepers who appreciate your patronage. I guess they got half the name right - Rags. read more

Nice little shop. Carries Cece Caldwell chalk paint (specific reason I came in to visit), was able to use their discount deal and saved some money. Shopping on a budget in Carmel, who knew? read more

BUYER BEWARE!!!! I recently purchased a Victor Costa gown from Ritzy Rags. It did, however, have a rip in it ,which I was aware of, so they offered some discount(everything in the store was 10% off). I am no seamstress, but I knew it would be an easy and inexpensive fix. Even so, I must say I was very excited about my purchase but my excitement was crushed. When I tried on the gown in front of my daughters and mother, the gown fell apart at all seams. It nearly separated from the bodice completely. I was in tears. I telephoned the shop to let them know what happened. I spoke with the owner and we agreed, after I took the dress to my seamstress I would be in contact. I took photos of the dress prior to it being mended, took it to my seamstress who intern had to reinforce the entire gown. When I went back to the store, to show them photos of what happened to the gown, and ask for some type of reimbursement for the cost of having it repaired, the owner of the store was extremely rude and very unsympathetic. A few minutes into our conversation, the mother who helped me originally, came in and was extremely defensive and also very rude. It was then 2 against 1. I sensed a third individual in the store, he stood by the door, and I immediately felt threatened. I have never felt so uncomfortable in a store. What these women know about couture they lack in customer service, sympathy, empathy, and they are completely self centered. I wasn't even asking for a full refund. A simple apology would have even been nice. I strongly discourage anyone from patronizing this store!! read more

I stumbled upon this cute shop when I was visiting Carmel last week. I bought the most amazing shoes and fab jacket. I love designer clothes but my budget does not allow. Well, until now! The merchandise is like new, I can shop in style without cleaning out my wallet and the sweetest owner. She was beyond helpful with impeccable taste. I will be making trips to Carmel just to visit Ritzy Ragz! read more

I really like their new location and space much better than the previous one down the street. The staff is over the top helpful and very friendly! I am quite certain that (Carol T.) has a most unusual experience with her fur, It is unfortunate that a professional thief made off that day. But, (blank) happens somtimes to good people. I feel her pain. Personally, I would recommend Ritzy! read more

Horrible place to sell anything, let alone a Prada handbag. I was ripped off!! . I had called after 5 weeks to inquire if my bag was sold yet. She said no and recommended I keep it in the store, not telling me they were going to reduce the price by 40% and then 25%. I would have taken my handbag back. Then to add insult to injury I see my Prada on the "sold" items online stating sold for $600.00. And she is giving me only $175.00. Then Jen informed me she wouldn't send me the little monies I was due by her "ironclad" contract promise date of the 15th of the month Today is Feb 7th .WHAT A JOKE! Do not frequent this store! I will be contacting my lawyer! read more

i found this place charming. she was very friendly, although i did not catch her name. she was there yesterday. i was very suprised at the selection of deisgner items. but it is carmel, pebble beach. i found the store strange in its location. sort of off the beaten path. its like two blocks off of ocean, next to a really nice antique store.the designer items were amazing. usual consignment shops dont usually have this kind of array. i saw louboutin, lots of chanel, lots of gucci, some manolo blahnik, bottega veneta, even a pair of louis vuitton shoes. i cant wait to take some of my items here to consign. at least i know that they have the clientel. read more
