“Over the years I've found Plato's to be pricier for things than I can often find in the thrift store as a lower income family. Now in a better position, I've started to bring my teen boys to shop as they want specific name brand clothing and it's easier to find here for a fraction of the cost. For example we purchase a pair of special edition Nike air shoes in great condition for $30 online we found the same second hand for $60-100. True there are some clothes that I've found on the shelf in questionable condition but part of the fun is searching to find what you would like.
I brought in some men's clothes/shoes the last time we went in and they offered us $45 for items we would have donated. Many were in new or excellent condition, some name brands some not. I think bringing your items to sell do not plan on making money off your items. I see it as normally this would go to a thrift store and now I have some extra credit to buy things my kids like at the store. Go online and sell your things if you are going to complain about how much they pay you for your items. I almost guarantee it's more time and headache than you are willing to put in. Considering they pay their employees and overhead cost to run the store not to mention sell items for a fraction of the original cost. Overall my experiences recently have been positive and we will continue to check out the shelves for more deals.”
