Be prepared to pay prices to match quality. Things are not cheap here. Also, as in most vintage stores, you won't find really big sizes. Most run in the M range, even though some are marked large, they aren't. Typical vintage. Run smaller. I am 5'5" 140, average size and BMI, most tops would not fit me here. I had a bit of trouble finding it, today they did not have their sign out (I saw it folded up in the store), and google maps guided me a couple storefronts down. Keep looking. It's on sidewalk level and looks like a vintage store window.

I recently visited the Columbus location and can honestly say that around every corner there's…read moreincredible vintage--thoughtfully hand-selected and beautifully displayed, almost exactly as it would have been when originally sold. I'm a huge fan of '70s fashion and absolutely fell in love with a pair of high-waisted, straight-leg denim jeans. Sadly, they were a bit too tight in the waist, even though the fit everywhere else was perfect. While I'm not overly fond of the pricing, I do understand it--because for the perfect, high-quality pair of vintage jeans, I'd absolutely pay the price. I didn't leave empty-handed though; I walked out with a super cool pair of sunnies that I'm obsessed with. Huge thanks to my lovely sweetheart for finding this gem of a store! I'm already looking forward to another visit and potentially checking out their Cleveland location as well.

My friend and I stopped in here on a day out while visiting from out of town. We weren't sure what…read moreto expect, but we're pleasantly surprised. This store specializes in vintage finds. they have furniture, glassware, jewelry, clothing, vinyl records, and a lot of other really cool pieces. You could spend a few hours in here, looking at everything they had. Their vintage clothing selection is quite extensive, although we both felt that the pieces were a bit overpriced. It was definitely a fun way to spend a few hours, but again we didn't spend any money because the clothing was so pricey. If you're looking for some unique vintage items this is definitely the place to look

As a seller, I've found that this isn't the best option for consigning high-end pieces. The return…read moreafter markdowns is minimal, and in my experience, the care and value placed on items left a lot to be desired. I had traveled from out of town to pick up some unsold items on the last day of my contract. One dress in particular had a security sensor attached -- which signaled to me that they understood its value -- but when they removed the sensor, it sprayed ink all over the white fabric. Despite the damage, they offered me just $22 for the dress, which I later sold on Poshmark for $100 the same day I picked it up. When I voiced my concerns, I was encouraged to speak with someone at the front desk, but the response was dismissive -- simply stating it would be treated as a markdown sale. There was no accountability, and it was clear there would be no resolution. I didn't bother to fight the way they seemed happy to conduct business, as this was my first experience. It was a disappointing experience that showed a lack of care for consigned items at Second Chance. I've learned my lesson and will not be returning. I'd recommend sellers explore other platforms or shops that treat high-value pieces with more respect and offer fairer returns.

I had one of the most disappointing retail experiences at this store. I came in with authentic…read moredesigner shoes, only to be met with rude, judgmental treatment from the owner, Chris. Without offering any clear reason or explanation, she accused my shoes of being fake. I found this deeply insulting, especially as I later went out of my way to get them professionally authenticated and even contacted the original store to verify my purchase with the receipt. Though she took them to check them out or do whatever fake research which was really to waste my time and tell me to " look around", she came to me didn't even let me come back to the counter and aggressively handed and disrespectfully handed the shoes with box and said how much at first then responded in a racist manner of saying they weren't real. The audacity and nerve of this woman took me by surprise. As a business owner myself, I would never treat a customer with the dismissive and condescending attitude I received here. Instead of professionalism, I was met with hostility and a lack of respect. Sad part as well, she didn't know who I actually was and following and connections I could've helped with her business. God and Karma works in mysterious ways though, so it will be dealt with.What makes this worse is that I could have been a loyal, returning customer, but after this encounter, I will never step foot in this store again. If you value fair, respectful, and professional customer service, I suggest taking your business elsewhere. If I could leave 0 stars I would.

In one of the pics I saw a little beehive Christmas ornament so thought I would go check it out (my mom is bee anything crazy). I wasn't sure where the GPS was taking me but once I saw the beatiful mural on the side, I knew where I was heading. Really friendly staff and some really cute gifts here. I was promptly greeted when I came in and was offered some coffee or water. I had to pass as it was a quick stop but I really liked the vide here. The shop had a bit of everything including clothing, candles, jewelry, and all sorts of gifts including some gorgeous drinking glasses. Definitely worth browsing just to check it all out. Overall, it looked like the general price point is on the higher end but nothing too outrageous for a boutique shop. I did find the ornament I saw in the picture but I know my mom already has the same one, or one that could pass off as its twin anyway. So many cute gifts and would totally visit again even though I didn't find something this trip. I really had to resist buying something just to buy it (holidays and all) but they have so much cute stuff.

Also, there is so much stuff crammed into the tiny shop, it is tough to make sense of it all. All that being said, this is still an essential stop on the Fifth Avenue thrift shop hop.

I didn't even realize this store had changed ownership until i walked into the sleek new design. I found the jewelry to be most appealing if you like simple costume or silver chains and small earrings. Jewelry ranges in price from $20-$45 and seems worth it. The collection in general is unique. Clothing is pretty basic styles and a few retro mod pieces ranging from jackets to jeans and plenty of knit shirts. I tried on a cute cotton dress that was reasonably priced. While I was in the room the clerk received a call and I heard her chatting. I was pleased to see that as soon as I left the changing room she put the phone down and was very attentive. Prices range from $40-$200. Judging by the style quality and designers this is reasonable and worth it. Nice new addition to the Short North clothing scene.
