Used, Vintage & Consignment in Pasadena, CA

“What a fascinating place. Nostalgia overload with a wide ranging selection of items including comics, art, jewelry, and so many random collectible pieces. Defining worth a visit and I suggest carving out a couple hours to really enjoy everything they have to offer. Prices are a bit high on some things, but you will find many difficult to find collectibles.”

“I’m in town from DFW. Since I had some extra time, I decided to stop in. They had some nice pieces at very affordable prices.

It was mostly older women shopping, so some of the pieces seemed to align more to that crowd. However, it wasn’t limited, just maybe a bit more geared toward them. Some women were shopping for a cruise and hit the jackpot with dresses.

No one greeted me, but maybe that’s just a southern thing. If I’m back, I’d definitely give them another chance based on other reviews.

Also, it’s kind of tucked into a neighborhood, so if you’re not looking, you may miss it.”

“Have always loved this little slice of retro heaven and this week loving even more. Had a last minute show and they came through amazingly creating buttons for us last minute. Extremely helpful, great product, and bonus - got to dig through vinyl LPs and vintage clothes while there.”

“I have no opinions on how the shopping experience of this location is because I've never shopped for anything here before. Over the last few months, I have made countless drop offs here with donations because my mom is downsizing her home and she's finally getting rid of decades of clothes and shoes and this location ALWAYS makes it easy to come in and drop it off and move on with my day. Maybe one day I'll stop by and do some shopping inside the store.”

“I first experienced Clothes Heaven in the late 80s. It was a favorite of mine at the time. You can always find one of a kind, spectacular threads there. Larayne always takes a personal interest in all her clients- in a short period of time she picks up on a person's sartorial style and preferences. Her "sale room" is my favorite place to start. It is always filled with an abundance of choices and sizes.”

“Jeffrey is running a great store!
Great selections and a super pleasant staff! My wife and I have gone to other locations, but the staff here shows a lot of personality and excitement for when we have brought product in to sell. They show great passion for what they do and not just showing up for the job.”

“I highly recommend visiting this place if you’re looking for cheap pots and fun ceramics. I bought a pot for $12 that would probably go for $25-30 at another store. There’s a wide variety of interesting pots and ceramic decor that I don’t see at regular nurseries. The people who work there are very helpful as well.”

“I have tried many times to have iSold It help me sell some items on EBay. So far I only had success several years ago. In their new location, they require you to make an appointment because the main door to the suite of offices works on the buzzer system. I did not know that this time. I arrived late after closing and could not get in. I wised up and called the next day. Hal was very helpful. My item, an upper dish rack for a Bosch dishwasher, apparently typically sells on eBay for around $100. I recall buying it from the manufacturer only about three or four months before the dishwasher failed and I had to replace the whole thing. The rack does not fit in the new model. The problem he pointed out was that most sellers were offering free shipping. He passed And accepting the item because he believed the free shipping would likely wipe out any profit we might get. I appreciated getting the advice so quickly so then I could find another way to dispose of the item. When I suggested that maybe I could try to sell it locally through Facebook Marketplace, he reminded me that the universe of buyers when you're selling something local that has a very specific purpose like this is very small so I might have to wait a long time. My primary goal was to declutter my house. If I could make a few dollars, that would have been good but it's not worth the hassle to have to keep it around until I find just the right local buyer. So, to sum up, my rating is based on Hal's very quickly supplied advice so that I knew what direction I wanted to go in.”

“Thrift shop in Pasadena.
Lots of vintage and soft worn clothing.
Prices are well below those of vintage shops in NYC.
If you're in the market for vintage clothing, this is a spot worth checking out.”
