Manhattan is a great urban inspired store. They have great clothing for young men that is cool and…read morecolorful. I have purchased clothing for my son and I can tell you that it has probably been five years and the shorts are still in impeccable condition. The store is great because they have great color options like red, royal blue, lime green bright orange, white and just about every other awesome color you can name. I grew so tired of just seeing khaki and denim that I just needed to branch out and explore other options and my son is very open to color in his wardrobe so this was a success. In addition to great shorts, they also have simple cotton tees in a variety of colors that are very affordable. I love the graphic tees because you can actually find choices that are not offensive and have appropriate messages or designs. Just know that there are no refunds, only exchanges so take time to actually try on your items before purchasing.

This used to be my favorite goodwill. It used to be so good but they no longer sell the good stuff…read morein their stores. The good stuff: - Hard back fiction novels for adults. The hardback fictions that remain are usually children's books which aren't popular that they've labeled as adult books so they can price them $1 high. ($2.92) - I've seen large non-fiction books (coffee table books) priced as high as $6 - music instruments, they don't even sell the starter instruments your toddlers and preschoolers might use - books of sheet music - any vintage item that is in good repair - art supplies (I mean I found some broken crayons) - any designer clothing or bags (even the cheaper things like Gloria Vanderbilt jeans we can get at Costco for $20) - all leather jackets - all trench coats - vintage jewelry - enamel pins or little buttons - toys are mostly gone except some stuffies, especially any which might appeal to Gen X or older millennials as a nostalgia item They send all of this "good stuff" which they get for free and send it to a e-commerce sites where virtually everything starts priced at $9-50. Then they charge $2-7 for handling plus $5-15 for shipping for almost every item. This means for any new item, almost anything will cost you less to order from Amazon. They also tend to overprice things that are new and look ornate. For example, they are currently trying to sell a fountain pen that costs you $23 from Amazon for $59.99. I've emailed them several times since first seeing the item listed to inform them that it looks ornate but it is actually from a cheap pen company. Goodwill packaging which I assume is supposed to be covered by "handling" fee is BAD. I ordered a few things to test them out: - One arrived at my place okay. But it took over a week to leave their facility. When I emailed asking about the delay, they said that the items are only guaranteed to leave after 5 business days and Saturday and Sunday are not business days even though they are open on Saturday but closed on Friday. I ordered the item on Saturday, which meant it took they kept the item for 10 days to ship. - One lot of pens, for which I paid $25 in shipping and handling... they literally scraped into a plastic grocery bag then put the bag into the bottom of the box. The bag contained a delicate, early 1900s: mother of pearl dip pen with a gold nib which had a box that they declined to use, a glass fountain pen (also not in its box) and a bunch of nibs... plus 3 bonus razor blades all shipped 2000 miles to me with all the padding ABOVE the items. - Another they described as an inkwell (I am an artist)... it wasn't. It was 12 inches tall and a wine bottle. They provided no photos to give reference to size. - Another was a t-shirt press and it came wrapped in two boxes with no padding. The two boxes were held together by a piece of tape that may have been 2 inches long. If an item doesn't sell through their website on the first few rounds.... Like all those starter music instruments you might have bought for your kid for $5-10 and used artist loft kits that they were trying to start at $25 (when you shipping and handling fee ). They auction them off in giant boxes for hundreds to thousands of dollars. If you can avoid it don't shop at their stores, take the time to find another thrift store. But above all don't donate your items. They are taking the goods you are donating to help others in your community and selling them to people who have money to get into bidding wars. Meanwhile they are paying their CEO's up to $750,000 a year while paying their disabled employees as little as $0.75 and hour. No I didn't leave out a number. Seventy-five cents an hour. I recommend SVDP, Value Village, Humane Society Thrift Stores, Scraplants, and Habitat Humanity Re-Store. All of these are great places to donate and great places to shop. References regarding pay and Goodwill, I've seen no evidence that they've improved their ethics: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/disabled-workers-paid-just-pennies-hour-its-legal-flna6C10406957

The good: Their selection of clothing and especially of special event dresses is fantastic, the owner is very warm and helpful, and their clearance area has fantastic prices. Unfortunately, as I mentioned, I've had some not-great experiences at the store: The first time I went, my visit was fine. The owner wasn't there, but one of the two people working was really nice, and I found some great deals. My second visit was pretty stressful. I went in with my fiance and stepdaughter to look for elopement dresses. The woman working there, who was older and had gray hair, asked us if she could help us find something. We told her that we just wanted to browse. In response, she told my stepdaughter that there were some cute dresses she wanted to show her. My stepdaughter is a sweetheart and very shy. She didn't want to correct the woman or really have to deal with her at all, so I again told the woman that we were fine and just wanted to browse. The woman's response was to again tell my stepdaughter to follow her. My stepdaughter was deeply uncomfortable, and at that point, so were my fiance and I, but she begrudgingly followed the woman. We didn't understand why this woman was seeming to want to challenge our desire to browse. She didn't ask us once what we were actually looking for. Once my stepdaughter was able to break away from the woman, we left. It was the oddest experience--like some weird power play that we didn't understand. I didn't want to let that experience ruin Serendipity for me, especially because it's important to me to support small businesses. So I decided to give it one more chance a few months later. They really do have a great selection of dresses, and I was still looking for something special. That day, the owner, who seems like a really sweet person, was there and the shopping experience was a good one. I purchased two beautiful previously owned dresses. Here's where the experience went south, though; I made the mistake of looking up how much the dresses cost new once I got home so I could congratulate myself on my deal-finding skills. I discovered that they cost LESS new and that they were still available for purchase. So I paid more than I would have had i purchased them new, and the receipt indicated Serendipity doesn't take returns. It was very disappointing. I still might go back at some point, but I'll be checking the cost of items before I make any purchases, and I'll be reserving my visits for times that the unpleasant sales associate isn't there.
