Another Glance is a consignment thrift store on the corner of a vaguely run down street. To give an…read moreidea, there's a burnt down house down the road. But going the other direction, some nicer houses. Several mannequins line the windows in a pleasing display of colors and patterns. Inside is relatively small, but orderly, with the space maximized with shelf displays and purses high up on the wall. Two large windows bring in natural light. The racks of clothing inside are shoppable, and not over stuffed. They are mostly all women's clothes, arranged by broad categories such as pants and t-shirts. The demographic skews a bit towards the stylish older woman: waterfall cardigans, Vera Bradley purses, comfortable shoes. Good condition clothes, from quality value brands like Uniqlo, to mid range department store brands like Style & Co, to some gems, like from Garnet Hill or Marmot. Prices might be a little more than Goodwill, but the clothes are in better condition than the Goodwill down the street on Mt Vernon road. The designs are also a nicer selection with some fashionable embroidery, cheerful prints, and perhaps a few items in better fabrics like cashmere. And even better when there's a 50% sale on select categories. The lady at the cashier is welcoming, and willing to engage in conversation. She allowed me to look through the corner section of unpriced items and offered to price some on the spot. There are three fitting rooms painted bright pink. The rule is to leave the garments in the fitting room after you try them on. The doors are unusually high though so I was hesitant to try on pants because I hadn't shaved my lower legs because yknow, winter. If you're thinking about consigning clothes to this shop, call ahead as it may be full and not accepting more as space is limited. I recommend checking out this thrift store. Even though maybe the location isn't the most inviting, the actual shopping experience was comfortable and pleasant.

Went in to have a gold bracelet repaired that I regrettably bought from an Etsy shop. It was hollow…read morebut advertised as solid. The gentleman working there said that because it was hollow it couldn't be repaired. He decided to try anyways and was successful, telling me afterwards to get rid of it before it broke again. While he was attempting to repair it, I decided to take a look at some of the products they had in cabinets close by. While my back was turned, another employee grabbed a display of what looked to be cheap novelty necklaces from atop the counter where I had been waiting. She then proceeded to walk it down to the opposite end of the counter where she had been standing. I immediately felt profiled as a thief and was instantly offended. I had purchased a ring from them years ago and was looking to by a necklace for my girlfriend. After being made to feel like a criminal based off whatever invalid reasoning she may have had, I thanked the gentleman for fixing my bracelet and went straight to Dunkin's Diamonds. I traded it in towards the purchase of a diamond pendant necklace which was a quick, pleasant, and respectful experience. I have worked in retail the majority of my life and there is no excuse for her profiling me a thief. I was pleasant and respectful to them from the moment I entered and in turn was disrespected for no justifiable reason. That's what's called "bad business practices" and for her mistake I will never return to H.L. Art Jewlers unless it's to "Pretty Woman" them. Shame on her. Hundreds if not thousands of dollars in future purchases lost to Dunkin's over cheap twine and tumbled stone novelty necklaces. Shame on her. I hope she understands her wrongdoing and corrects herself appropriately. Peace and love.

I went to Kay's to shop for an engagement ring. I was greeted by someone whom asked me what I was…read morelooking for and I advised her. She then took me to the wedding bands. Now I can get over new people and mistakes but since the entire experience was horrible I mention it even though it is petty. So when I got to the rings I picked out a couple and at this point is when the lay away battle started. The lady asked me 4 different ways to put the ring on layaway at which point when she saw that I wasn't going to she got another lady who asked me and said she couldn't guarantee the price without a layaway and other things to pressure me into layaway the ring. Then another guy came over and it started all over. 15 times was the total of times I was asked, pressured and pleaded to layaway this ring. I did not bc I wanted to shop around. I went to another Kay's different city different results. They offered the exact same ring for 75.00 cheaper and no pressure told me if I came back by the end of November they would give me the same price. Definately don't recommend this store.

I went there to buy my girlfriend a ring I had two picked out already from online and when I asked…read moreabout those two the lady tried to sell me a different one and half the questions I asked her she had to ask the other lady, at the end of my hour long trip I left empty handed they had no answers and pretty much told me it would be easier online since thats the same way they were going to do it
