My coworker and I dropped by the store this afternoon to purchase some earrings. I needed to replace a broken pair, which I had purchased at this very store some years ago. As we were browsing around, we were followed around the store the entire time we were there. Mind you, none of the non-black patrons were being followed. To avoid being in the store longer than necessary, I asked for assistance to locate what I was looking for. I go over to that section and once again, here comes a store worker, acting as if she had to put product on the shelf in the same area and at the same time I was there. She did the exact same thing in a different aisle that we were in a few minutes prior. She did not to provide assistance or ask if I needed some help, her sole purpose was to keep a watchful eye as if I was there to steal something like a common thief. This was the same woman who was following my coworker and I. Never, in my 56 years on this planet have I ever been treated so poorly! I will never again patronize this store! If you are a person of color, please be mindful of where you spend your money. It definitely shouldn't be in spaces where we are not welcomed. #shoppingwhileblack!

If you like to collect manga and want to see a huge variety of selections, this is the place. I really like that they also have a selection of manga in Japanese! The art book aisle is awesome. It's hard to find art books in other bookstores, and even places like Barnes and Noble won't have a selection as varied as Kinokuniya. Despite the endless aisles of manga, I've surprisingly noticed that they're missing a few decently known manga. Unless I keep missing it, I've never seen The Case Study of Vanitas in their aisle, but they have the author's other work, Pandora Hearts, in there, for example. I would also say Kinokuniya is limited with their selection of anime goodies. I like that they're all very much authentic and different from your typical anime store selling pop figures and easy to find Bandai/Banpresto stuff, but their blind box selections are also becoming easy to find in other places because it's all the mainstream shows. Overall, if you're looking to expand your collection, this is the place to go.

After a while, one of the other employees did eventually ask how I was doing, which I appreciated. However, the initial interaction really left a lasting impression. I had heard other women of color share similar experiences at this store, which was actually one of the reasons it took me so long to shop here in the first place. Unfortunately, my experience seemed to confirm the concerns I had heard from others. It's disappointing because the store itself is beautiful and has such a great selection, but the way we were treated made the experience uncomfortable and unwelcoming.

Avara is always my go to for most occasions! I usually order online, but had the chance to stop in the store and the cute little boutique did not disappoint! I was instantly greeted by the most adorable and cheerful group of young ladies. As I was browsing, I was asked if I needed help finding anything, a fitting room was started for me, and I left with so many new pieces. The store and the staff were so great! I will make the trip again just for experience!!! read more

Make sure that you plan on keeping the items that you order because you pay for shipping and then have to pay a return shipping fee. I recently ordered a shirt and the quality was not good and it was way too big (even if I liked it, I could not exchange it because I ordered the smallest size). I ended up paying $12.34 for nothing. Will shop at other boutique stores that offer a better return policy. read more

In my final attempt to give this place a chance, I walked in while a frozen faced "influencer" was ambling around Like Jack Skeleton and filming content. As she blurted out "boughten" instead of "bought" or "purchased" in front of a camera, I cringed. I casually mentioned to another girl at the counter, "You may want to let her know that 'boughten' isn't the correct word. It's bought or purchased--just FYI." The girl at the counter's response was accompanied by a scolding voice and an ugly glare. Instead of acknowledging what should be a faux pas (to say the least), she censured me with "We don't need that kind of negativity here." I interpret those words as we do nor care to cater to an educated and well-spoken customer base. Ironically, the negativity was written all over HER face. An older couple standing nearby heard the exchange, shook their heads, and said, "They clearly have no concept of grammar or what customer service is." The girls behind the counter seem to be living in some sort of designer-label dreamland in which they believe they are in a position to size up the people walking through the door. Here are some basic lessons in retail: Never size up a customer. You have absolutely no idea who is standing in front of you, what they do for a living, what they are worth, or what they can afford. Always remember what side of the counter YOU are standing on. One side "earns" a working retail wage while the other side (the customer) has leisure time and disposable income. Many of the customers walking into a consignment stores are professionals who could walk into Neiman Marcus and buy new, not used, merchandise with concierge service. Professionals shop consignment because they are discerning about how they spend their money, not because they need a retail associate deciding whether they look sufficiently affluent. Wealthier people are generally also educated in basic grammar. Ergo, poor grammar and low class behavior is grinding to them. With that said, there is no shame in working in retail. However, when you are being paid to represent a retail business, customer service is quite literally the main part of the job. Smile, be gracious, stop sizing people up, and keep your mouth shut when eloquent language eludes you. If English is your only language, and you are creating public content for a business, knowing the difference between "bought" and "boughten" seems like a fairly low bar. I've seen far better customer service with a genuine smile dropping off things at Goodwill. NEVER To Be Continued...

The store is decent sized and has a lot of clothes options, along with shoes, bags, and jewelry. Some of the pieces I feel could be a bit better, however these are designer brands and the condition of all of the clothes were in good condition. Some of the shoes were questionable. There was so much wear on since of the bottoms of the shoes (size 11 specifically) that it was odd how they were even selected to be sold here. This may be because of limited inventory at the time, but the price seemed inflated considering the condition of some of these items. I wish they had a better selection of size xl and up but again, they're at the mercy of the inventory that they receive.

I called ahead yesterday specifically to ask whether this store accepted custom-made suits because another consignment company I use does not. The person I spoke with told me they did and simply said to bring them in. Today, I brought in four custom-made suits worth approximately $12,000. They were folded neatly and brought in bags. When I arrived, one employee greeted me politely and asked how he could help. I explained that I had called the day before about consigning custom suits. Another employee turned around and said, "It was me." He immediately and rudely asked what size the suits were. I explained that they belonged to my husband and I wasn't sure. He then said, "Well, first of all, you need to bring custom suits in on a hanger." I apologized and explained that I hadn't been told that when I called. His response was, "You didn't ask." That was the entire interaction. At that point, I thanked them for their time and left. Businesses are free to have whatever intake requirements they want, but basic customer service and professionalism cost nothing. Had I been told over the phone that the suits needed to be on hangers, I would have happily brought them that way. Instead, I was made to feel like I had done something wrong for not knowing information that was never communicated to me. I also own a business in the same neighborhood, so I understand firsthand how important customer service is. Every person who walks through the door deserves to be treated with respect, whether they're bringing in one item or several. The way I was spoken to was dismissive, rude, and unnecessarily condescending. It was such a poor first impression that I immediately decided to take my business elsewhere. I will also be sharing my experience when customers, colleagues, and neighbors ask for recommendations regarding local consignment businesses.
