“Lots of treasures to find. Never know something you need will show up on your next visit. That why I go at least once or twice a week and still buy something when I leave happy with every purchase. I love the staff for being helpful and friendly. Thank you for serving and giving everyone another chance on living life.”

“Saw this spot while going to the city hall and knew I had to stop by! The owner is very kind and has a great knack for helping you find what you're looking for. I left with all the pieces I needed for my Bucky Barnes costume! The prices are great and so is the customer service. I definitely reccomend this place.”

“Absolutely my favorite shop! Nearly New has such a variety of lovely items, from jewelry and designer clothing, handbags, antiques and artwork to children's toys and books, seasonal coats, modern and vintage glassware, clothing for the whole family, holiday decorations and more.
Bargains and "fabulous finds" are waiting for you here.
This is where I buy my favorite scarves, earrings and antique glassware. -Plus, a few nice gifts! ( Happy to share my best resource with you.) There are plenty of goodies for everyone to buy, with the sales proceeds going to scholarships for local women. Come and enjoy a great shopping experience here!”

“A very cute thrift store in Japantown! My partner and I have been a couple of times, and always leave with a couple of trinkets. They have a decent selection of Sanrio items, clothing, Smiskis, and Sonny Angels. They also have stickers and keychains from local creators. We’ll be back!”

“I am blessed to have this store in my town. The prices are affordable and their furniture is solid wood none of that cheep stuff you find in today's overpriced furniture stores. The people there are beautiful souls. I recommend this establishment 1000 times over before any other to family and friends, neighbors and just random strangers. God bless their humble souls and their great spirit of service to others in our community and surrounding towns.”

“Awesome location! Worker at the loft was nice and he was more than happy to show me some items in the case. This goodwill in particular is always my #1 compared to others in the area when it comes to variety, cleanliness, and customer service.”

“donate to this homeless shelter if you want to help feed the homeless. this shelter does provide a decent meal in the mornings. 7am and evening 5pm everyday. For beds 3 pm.
SAD THING IS THAT MANY NON HOMELESS PEOPLE GO THERE TO TAKE FOOD LEAVING THE REAL HOMELESS WITH NO FOOD. I see people getting there in a nice car. Nice clothes not homeless at all. Some people live right in the block nice homes and cars . But they take the food from the real hungry people that live on the streets.”

“This review is for donation only. I came on a Monday afternoon at around 1:30pm. There was no wait to donate. To donate, you have to drive behind the building and there will be a large area to self sort (clothes, linens, books, etc). I donated baby furniture such as jumper and bouncer and worker sorted that for me. The guy was very pleasant. I decided to donate here as Hope Thrift (closer to me) doesn't accept baby furnitures. Goodwill doesn't accept car seats though which expires. There is a QR code to scan for receipt.”

“Good selection of clothing and friendly workers. Prices are a little high, but I'm used to non-California prices so Im not sure if it's the norm. They have days and weeks with specific discounts for all clothing or specific categories/tags, so look out for those. Also suggest joining their mailing list beforehand to get a coupon for 25% 1 item. July 26-27 is every clothing item for $3 each, so I'd suggest going then. Was annoyed one of the fitting room doors was broken, but the one I used was clean and well-kept.
Prices I noticed/bought from:
Shirts: $6-$12
Shorts: $6-$8
Pants: $8-$12
Dresses: $9-$13
Purses/bags: $15-$25”

“Word of advice: Bring a tape measure and have someone at home to double check your measurements there. If you think you can come back later, the item will have likely sold. Shopping here is inspiring. Thx!”

“Excellent books, well organized. Good discounts every day, look at the black board at the entrance. Closed on Mondays and Sundays. You help others with what you do not need anymore!”

“Came to donate some nice stuff but ended up in a full-on prison intake simulation. The guy at the back door barked orders like I was about to be processed—told me to stand behind a line with the authority of someone who either just got released, escaped, or moonlights as a CO. Not sure which, but honestly, 10/10 for realism. Great place to donate if you’re also prepping for jail.”

“I always always find nice brand name clothes, shoes and household items and accessories such as scarfs and purses. They have an excellent selection and the prices are good. They usually have colored tags sales where certain items are a percentage off.”

“Goodwill on Alum Rock Avenue is a mixed experience, with a decent selection of clothing, furniture, and household items, but organization can be inconsistent. Some shoppers find great deals on name-brand clothing, while others mention that pricing can be unpredictable. The store layout is spacious, though certain sections feel cluttered.

Customer service is friendly but sometimes understaffed, leading to longer checkout times. While the store offers a variety of items, inventory rotates frequently, so finding specific pieces may require multiple visits. Despite occasional stock inconsistencies, it remains a solid thrift shopping option.”

“Good place to thrift for cheap clothes and accessories. Items rotate in and out, so grab whatever you want before it eventually goes! They have specific sales depending on the color of the tag as well, so there's a lot of savings here :)”

“I recently visited this Goodwill of Silicon Valley and overall, I had a pleasant experience. The store is clean and relatively well-organized, which makes browsing through the aisles an enjoyable process. While it’s not the largest store, they’ve done a good job of maintaining a tidy and welcoming environment.

One of the standout features is the selection of books. Whether you're looking for a good read or something specific, their book section is pretty decent for a thrift store, with a nice variety of genres and titles. However, if you're in the market for furniture, you might be a little disappointed. Their selection of furniture is quite limited, so don't expect to find a lot of options in that department.

What they do have, though, is a unique variety of items. I found an interesting collection of wooden dishes, which you don’t typically come across in most stores, along with a decent assortment of toys for children. The clothing section is also worth checking out. While it may not be massive, it offers a good mix of styles for different tastes and sizes. I noticed a few nice shoes as well, though, like most thrift stores, it’s hit or miss depending on what’s been donated recently.

There’s also an eclectic mix of household items, including Chinese ceramics and glassware, which adds a fun, treasure-hunt feel to the store. You never know what kind of unique finds you’ll come across during your visit.

One thing that really impressed me was the staff. They were more than helpful and extremely friendly, making the shopping experience even better. There were plenty of employees on the floor to assist customers and answer any questions, which is something I don't always see in second-hand stores.

In summary, while the furniture selection is lacking, this Goodwill offers a clean and relatively well-organized shopping environment with a good variety of unique items, books, and clothing. The friendly and helpful staff are a definite plus, making it worth a visit if you're in the area and looking for a good deal or an unexpected find.”

“Goodwill has made it so easy to donate items that others could use. This eliminates asking people in person, which they decline for various reasons. They are conveniently located at the rear of the building. All items are clearly labeled for different items. Don't trash what people can use!”
