“First time in the store. Super cute store. Easy to find. We found some great gems. It was my friend's daughter birthday. The staff was super friendly and excited we were celebrating a birthday. Birthday girl got 20% discount. The clothes are priced well. Very clean and organized. I'm so happy we found this place. We will definitely return to buy and make donations.”

“I love this place! The prices are great ( I spend wayyyyyy to much money here). The Instagram stories are so fun to watch and make me sad that I can't shop every single day! The service here is amazing! The people are soooo nice. I don't mind waiting outside so that other people can shop! I love how they restock each shop day. I kind of like the small space, there are so many treasures hidden. I love and cherish everything I buy here. My grandma loves the plants!”

“Let me just start by saying that a five star is not enough! I live in Las Vegas and while visiting San Diego we decided to stop into this store, although it looked small from the outside I was AMAZED when I walked in. Let me start with the staff very welcoming and helpful. As I walked through the aisles embracing the cleanliness and color coordinated clothing the Manager “Angela” walked by and asked if we were looking for something specific.This was my opportunity to tell her that the store looked AMAZING! Her approaching us definitely speaks volume and shows that she takes ownership of her store and cares about the overall experience of every costumer that walks through the door. I would definitely recommend everyone to stop in you will NOT be disappointed.”

“I bought a VLog Kit from the Resale Source because I’ve always wanted a ring light and it was a really good deal, way less expensive than other ones I’ve seen. It works awesome and I have not stopped using it since I received it! It’s the perfect size for your desk and I use it on all my work Zoom meetings. It makes such a huge difference to the picture quality! There are three different light settings that you can play around with to find what works best for you. I swear it makes you look younger too! I absolutely love it. Highly recommend this product and The Resale Source.”

“G'mach aka "The Jewish Gift Closet" is such a wonderful place.. The volunteers are so helpful in helping you with what you need and both Myrice and Helene are such beautiful persons! they care about you as if they've known you your their whole life and make sure you are felt welcomed and never turn you away for anything.. I've been able to find clothing for my growing daughter and the best part is I can always bring back what didn't fit and it's been a great place to also bring my donation items.. they take anything from Men/Women clothing, shoes, accessories Baby/Kids clothes, toys, crib, maternity Books, new toiletries, houseware and more!!

“I absolutely adore this place! Everyone is so pleasant and helpful! Upon my return to my hometown of San Diego last summer (May 2023) I was homeless and sleeping in a tent in a canyon behind the Blind Center on Upas Street. I needed an outfit for a job interview, but had no money so I thought to go here and ask for assistance. The ladies gladly gave me an outfit and to this day I still have that job. True angels are employed at this establishment.”

“I've only been 3 times and each time is better. They donate to three wonderful local charities that support at-risk youth, survivors of human trafficking, and homeless shelters. Their prices are affordable (as it should be) which is rare nowadays for thrifts shops. I'll will start donating here too, especially since my fave hometown thrift shop only had limited hours. More options to donate. Very sweet volunteers and friendly owner.”

“Usually can find decent stuff. The employees park in the customer lot that's why you can't find spots. You can see them come out to take breaks in their cars sometimes.”

“Absolute hidden gem on the second floor exterior of the shopping center. Very well curated, organized, and clean streetwear, sportswear, trucker/biker jackets, tees. Family owned and run. Apparently, inventory turnover is super quick, so will definitely be back in the future.”

“This place is a Treasure trove and has a lot of big labels for clothing. I've snagged a small turn of the century table there that is absolutely gorgeous. The music is pipped through the speakers, I just usually wear air iPods. The staff are not welcoming or kind, which is kind of surprising given they are attached the rock church.”

“Good AC. Clean. Organized by size. Decent selection for a smaller store. They have fitting rooms too (the ones in LA don't!) Street parking all around though it can get busy since Hillcrest is a popular area but worth stopping in.”

“This is a really cool resale/thrift shop. They have a great variety of unique items. From clothes to plant to music item it covers a lot of stuff. At night they turn it into a live music venue. All types of original music in the best part of OB! The owners and staff are really nice and show the best part of the "chill" of OB. This pic is of Amanda Fagan and her band.”

“Upon our arrival the staff warmly welcomed us, displaying exceptional friendliness and ensuring that everything was impeccably organized. However, it's worth noting that the dressing room is somewhat makeshift, so be prepared to change in very dimly lit quarters (almost dark) with limited space. Furthermore, if you want to see how your clothes fit, you have to step outside the makeshift dressing room and be in front of other shoppers to look in the mirror. On a positive note, the pricing is quite reasonable, and the overall quality of the clothing left a favorable impression.”

“Clean, well organized Goodwill with a nice layout. The items here are in better condition than I normally see in a Goodwill. There's also a decent selection of movies and video games, too. If I didn't know any better, I'd think this was a Marshall's rather than a Goodwill!”
