“This little store is packed with eclectic items from the world over! There is something for everyone but you have to look carefully! Make sure you come with time to browse, and look closely as every nook and cranny has someone's treasure stashed in it. Every item has a story and the owner knows them all and is happy to share them with you. What a wonderful experience!”
“This is my go to spot for selling and buying used kids clothes. They also have women's clothes and I always find gems here. Great selection of kids toys and very sensibly priced. I use my store credit to buy all of the gifts for kid birthday parties throughout the year.”
“Fun antique vintage store. We got some playing cards, a fun and unique salt and pepper shaker of 2 squirrels, and a paperweight in the shape of a fat bird. Just to give you a taste”
“A diamond in the rough. Poor Honey’s furniture is a great place to look for a vintage, mid-century, postmodern, contemporary furniture for any space or home. I’ve been eyeing on a few pieces, waited it out and was able to negotiate with Ryan and Adam a deal. They’re busy people but, helped me load the furniture into my car. I highly recommend checking them out!”
“What a wonderful store with a powerful mission! They’ve got a $5 rack of clothing outside and all sorts of lovely things inside like furniture, clothes, jewelry, etc… they’re donation based so your purchase is for a very good cause. And the workers in there are great!”
“I encourage you to go out of your way to visit Mixed Pickles. Owner is super friendly, allows you to pick up their ‘booby trapped’ stock ?. A wonderful gem of curated items, paraphernalia, curiosities, clothing, and some pickle related items of course. The owner screen prints their own flyers, that change regularly. GO VISIT!!!!”
“The employees here are so friendly and chic! Their consignment rates are extremely reasonable compared to other places, and their collection is well curated! Love this place.”
“I’ve been shopping at Silver Moon Kids for 13 years now and all of them have been lucky! Dima and her staff run an amazing store stocked with new and gently used clothing, books, and toys. It’s the perfect place to buy for all things children.”
“Happy customer ⭐ first purchase! Found them through an eBay listing and was glad to see their personal site in the bio. Ordered, shipped and arrived in under 2 days (I’m kinda local 😆). Thank you 🙏🏼”
“Since living around this area, I love going in there to take a look around their nice selection of vintage clothing and accessories. The downside is, I don't think they have updated their open hours.Went in there around 11 and they were still closed. I hope they update their business hours if they have changed! Would love be able to go when I know they will for sure be open”
“Highly recommend. I discovered some old silverware sets in a storage garage owned by my ailing parents and needed to appraise them for their trust. I found the owner Niels of Montclair estates on the internet and he was great. Very professional, personable, experienced and knowledgeable. He is accredited by the International Society of Appraisers which is helpful if you need a legal appraisal document for insurance or other legal purposes.
His brick-and-mortar storefront is temporarily modest for reasons you can read about on his website but more than adequate to meet with him so he can begin to evaluate and understand your appraisal needs. Thank-you Niels for the well documented 12-page appraisal I needed for the silverware for my parents Trust.”
“I love this shop. Great clothes for great prices. The pieces I have gotten from there are high quality, clean, and stylish. Their homewares section is also decent. I try to stop by when I am on Piedmont Ave.”
“My favorite thrift store in the east bay. The selection is truly unbeatable and the volunteer staff are kind and dedicated. However, the new(ish) layout is totally inferior to the way it used to be. I’ve given it some time and an open mind, but I really just hate the way things are laid out now! I loved when the clothing racks and regular/vintage home goods were all on the left hand side and the fancier ceramics and home items were on the right. It’s hard to say why, but the flow of the new space is just really unpleasant. I’ve been back fewer times since the remodel because of the layout, it’s just no longer as relaxing of a shopping experience and is now much more crammed and stressful. I miss the old Bambino. While I’ll remain a loyal customer, I can’t say I’ll be seeking out trips to the shop as regularly. Hopefully they come to their senses and bring back the old layout. ?❤️”
“This is a great flea market with a wide variety of vendors selling MANY different types of things, both new and used. It has a great Latin vibe. Look for the vendor next to the furniture tent for great prices on everything from clothing to electronics and more.”
“An Oakland gem, cool consignment store with an eclectic grab bag of designers. So fun to see what’s in these racks, vintage gunne sax, the kooples, Mara Hoffman, Ulla, Misha and Puff, ace and jig and SO many more.”
“Decent little store. Found a few pieces I really liked here, and prices were altogether reasonable compared to some of the major chains around the Bay Area. There is some stuff here that seems a bit more overlooked compared to some other thrift stores.”
“I wanted to give a shout-out to the team that processes clothing at Crossroads on College Avenue. Every time I visit, I'm impressed by how hard they work behind the scenes to sort through what must be an enormous volume of items each day.
The staff is efficient, professional, and always courteous, even during busy periods. They take the time to carefully review clothing while keeping the process moving, and they treat customers with respect regardless of the outcome. It's clear that a lot of effort goes into maintaining the quality and selection that Crossroads is known for.
Thank you to the processing team for your hard work, attention to detail, and friendly service. Your efforts help make the store a great place to shop and sell!”
“super cool shop , friendly staff and unique pieces! I’ve work up the street and have been inside a handful of times, but each time I find a treasure! Love the cooors & the vibes.. definitely worth a trip!”
