“Haven’t sold here yet but the customer service was outstanding on the phone! Very impressed; it’s a rarity nowadays to have someone that polite and patient to deal with in a retail situation!”
“WE LOVE THIS PLACE!! My sister booked the appointment for me because we are definitely on a budget and it had great reviews. We booked it seven months out from the wedding to give ourselves time to shop around. But WE FOUND THE DRESS! Not only that, but we had a FANTASTIC experience with Missy. She was so sweet and truly considered what I wanted. She pulled dresses I never would have thought would have worked but did, and helped me thoroughly understand the ways they could be altered to fit my personal style. I cannot recommend this place enough. If I could give them extra stars I would!! Definitely recommending them to all my friends getting married!!! Thank you so much, Missy and Fairytale Brides!!!!”
“My friend and me visited this “My big Finds”As soon as you enter the shop, we are greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere that immediately transports you back in time. The walls are lined with racks of vintage clothing, accessories, and home decor items, each carefully curated to showcase the best of days gone by. From retro dresses to antique furniture, there is something here for every taste and style. Perfect place for beautiful gifts , wall decors and etc . I suggest My Big Finds as “Hip| vintage| Local| unique.””
“Not the biggest assortment, but certainly worth a look. Fairly good variety of entry, mid and some designer clothes and helpfully very little fast fashion. Most importantly the people running the store are quite nice.”
““The quality is Exceptional”. I was going to get some food near by and I discovered this store. The price is good and the quality of the clothe is exceptional. Fia has a fashion spirit. Thank you so much!”
“They have sorted and curated only the best items to resale, so this isn’t your ordinary shop, and the prices show. If you want 1/2 price designer duds, pop in here before you bother with the mall, especially if you are small. Not many XLs.”
“We came here for my wife's birthday to buy her a full yukata. We had been there 4 years prior purchasing some small earthwares that were gorgeous. Everything inside was so beautiful and you can tell the craftsman and store owner took pride in their art. She was also amazing with my wife helping her pick out the perfect yukata showcasing the perfect customer service you see in Japan. We HIGHLY recommend Tokiya Japan and are loyal customers.”
“The volunteers are so sweet and helpful. There are so many treasures to be found. Everything I purchased was lovely. I was so impressed I decided to become a volunteer in the store.”
“I get probably 50% of my child’s clothing here. I particularly love how often I find high-quality outdoor clothing that’s perfect for the nature-based preschool she attends.”

“We've been to this merchant a few times. I have a differentability (thank you to my little great niece for changing my perspective ?) and I some times require an aide for walking.My husband and I found some beautiful hand carved canes here and at very reasonable prices. We receive constant compliments going through the airport home and even more when I use them as a walking aide.Purchased hand made leather shoes from here and my son was elated with his gift ?.The staff is always very friendly and you can meet some very interesting people here as well. The store has two levels so don't miss going upstairs. There is definitely a lot to see ? so plan on spending some time to find your treasure.With all that said a little more organization would be nice so you can better see the selection and they have cats all over the place which I was not a fan of. However, my family and I visit here pretty much every time we're in the area and we look forward to viewing their new offerings.Check them out! Hopefully you'll find something interesting of your own in your visit.”

“Big sale right now. Open on some saturdays too. The staff are very friendly and stop to help you find what you are looking for. The building is very large but all items are VERY WELL organized on racks and shelves.”
“I always find a special piece or 5 .They are selective but curate a nice collection. They have a rack dedicated to fitness clothing which is mostly filled with Lulu. Denim selection is solid as well. The place is small but a gem.”
“Best vintage shop ever! Mercedes is my favorite! She has such a good eye, so her collection is always amazing, and she is fantastic at picking pieces for you that you wouldn’t normally choose but that then become your favorite. I have been blessed to experience this phenomenon many times with Mercedes! She is also just so kind and lovely to chat with. She and her shop are true gems. ?”
“D.C.'s gem for designer finds! Ella Rue offers amazing, high-quality pieces and the owners/ staff are welcoming and make you feel at home. My favorite stop in DC; you won't regret the visit!”
“Not going to lie, the clothes are overpriced for the most part. I think the price on the sweater I got was fine, but most of their shirts were the same price. The sweater I found is super comfortable and gets my partner a lot of compliments!”
“Found the most gorgeous emerald green Longchamp bag here! The shopkeeper was kind and friendly. It does get crowded on weekends though. Will definitely be back to shop more and hopefully consign!”
“The ladies are super helpful and friendly. They carry a nice array of sizes and as a larger than average woman finding things that are cute and unique and not just big is rare in the nicer shops so this one gets a 10/10”
“I have only had positive experiences here. The volunteers who've helped me have been lovely, interesting women. The inventory is pretty incredible, mostly jewelry and home wears. Many things will be listed well under market. To me, it's been a treasure and hope others have good experiences, too.”
“I had such a great experience shopping in Current Boutique. The staff was so kind and helped me find exactly what I was looking for. All of their clothes are so pretty and great quality! Go there RIGHT NOW!!!!”
“They have an entire floor downstairs dedicated to upscale furniture and housewares. Designer clothing upstairs and reasonable price. Just don't expect thrift store prices.”
“Love this neighborhood gem ! Easy process to donate / sell gently used clothes and either redeem for cash back or store credit . Every time I’m gone to donate clothes I end up purchasing new brand name goodies ! Great way to refresh your wardrobe :)”
“The negative comments about the workers being “rude” “arrogant” confirmed I needed to stop by but everyone there was chill and helpful. Nice designer that’s nicely priced”
“Took a field trip, braved the cold to Takoma Park. I grew up steps from Berkeley, CA and Takoma Park transports me back to a Berkeley neighborhood each time I go. This shop was great and full of hidden surprises! Not all the clothing was in pristine condition and definitely lots to see. I settled on a pair of red corduroy pants (vintage Ralph Lauren). Yes, most likely will return. There is also a delicious Mexican restaurant super close Cielo Roja.”
“i think they must have some company policy on only taking a max of X number of items from any person coming to consign at once, which is totally fine. i wouldn’t take it personally if they reject your items for consignment - i have kept some of the stuff they rejected and brought it back at other times at which point they took additional items that they previously rejected (can be a seasonality issue, stuff they’re specifically looking for at different times, or just luck of the draw depending on who’s reviewing your items).
to the people saying you’re better off selling on XYZ online platforms that is absolutely true - i mean you’ll obviously get more $$ payoff selling items and keeping 100% of the profit yourself but if you’re lazy, looking for convenience, and especially if you shop here and are part of the ‘ecosystem’ so to say it’s worth to consign and use your sales credit against purchases you make. lots of meh items in their stores but have gotten some of my cutest pieces from a current boutique so you just have to keep a discerning eye”
“I had to laugh at some of these 1 & 2 * reviews and now understand why the standards have changed. It has shifted to appease those who do not understand there is a difference between designer and brand. I am of a darker hue and older. I have been a thrifter and a consignment shopper for almost 50 years and Reddz is one of my go tos. For your FYI consignment is for high end pieces. I myself do not consignment shop to see other's low standard clothing that I would not pay for new. The staff is always accommodating, and you could be getting back what you are giving, if you want conversation find your friends. Please stop bringing your subpar clothing that you or no one wants, I am tired of looking at it and wondering why it is there taking up space and wasting my time sifting though items that ahould be at The Goodwill.”
