All dressing rooms are closed. No point looking for clothes if you don’t know they will fit

Good selection, constant restocking, and friendly customer service are three reasons to shop Second Avenue Thrift.

I apply for a cashier position at this store and was hire 9/6/2023. I told the store manager Octavia that I can work evening Monday-Friday, Saturday anytime and Sunday after 1pm because I go to church in the morning. For a month I still didn't start because Octavia said HR haven't put me on the roaster. I was told this on10/6. Remind you that's a whole month so far. I had to keep calling her to ask her can you find out what taking so longer? Then she went on vacation for a week and before she went on vacation she showed me my schedule evening and weekend and had me coming in on Sunday at 2pm as I requested. Then the new store manager came in while she was gone. I call the new store manager Elenia and ask her if she could find out what was going on. Elenia told me the Octavia didn't sent the additional paper work that she was supposed to sent me. In 5 minutes the new store manage sent me the paper work and I completed it and she ask me to come in at 12 noon on 10/4. When I got there Elenia assist me with my direct deposit and W4 form So I was about to start the training and she gave me the job description for a custodian NOT cashier. I told her I applied for a cashier position NOT custodian. Elenia said we don't have no cashier position because we have self check-out. Then Elenia gave me my schedule for morning and Elenia had me coming in on Sunday at 8am. I told Elenia Octavia knew a had a full time job and was looking for evening and weekends. Elenia then told me she told Octavia that the need morning only for custodian only. So shen then told me she will need to talk to Octavia when she comes back from vacation. So now we're in the 3rd week of October and I still haven't started.. So when Ocativa came back from vacation she apoligies and said I'm sorry we don't have evening & weekend position on morning. So not only was I pissed off because 8 damn week went passed that I wasted waiting on Octavia. SO in other never work there. Now I'm going to file a complaint. ..

It is a nice place where I can choose many things, I feel at home and I can calmly measure the things I buy

Good quality clothing that's well organized by size and type, and good selection of housewares and linens. Prices are on the higher side, which seems to be the trend for several larger thrift stores. Also has some new items like socks, They have half-off sales around major holidays like Memorial Day and Labor Day, when you can score great finds at more reasonable thrift/used prices. Also got a carry on with spinner wheels for only $16 (Sept 2023), which was a great find.

Price are aright could be more thrifty pricey but I mean hey someone gotta get paid . Culture friendly and I'll call next time before wasting my gas to make sure I'm coming on a purple yellow or grey tag day

Too many undercover workers keep blocking you while shopping. I get blocked, but so many others are stealing. I noticed this behavior at most of the second hand stores.

Went here yesterday for the 1st time and was very disappointed with their prices. , extremely high they want it $4 49 for a used baby board book. I can go to the store and get one brand new. I looked through the baby clothing and I decided not to buy anything because I can go to the store and buy something for the same price. Not sure why their prices are so high, they get their stuff for free. I'm sure most people shopping there are there because they want to find a good deal not Pay Department store prices.

Don't associate with a store that is as racist and discriminatory as this one. There are other 2nd Avenue stores in the area (Laurel and Columbia are fantastic) that are more deserving of your money. Their generic responses to the negative reviews only confirm that they don't care about the fact that they are creating negative shopping experiences for customers.

I will never shop at this store again. It amazes me as a black person no matter where I go I am followed around the store, and by my own people at that! No one greeted me or asked me if I needed help but every time I turn around someone is just watching me. Here’s a tip; if you’re going to follow people around the store be helpful. I didn’t even realize there were two empty open self check out registers because 3 employees were standing around as I waited in line to pay for my items. If you’re going to watch me the least you could’ve done was direct me to the available self check outs. As I’m folding and bagging my items the employees are literally just standing over me not saying anything. It’s weird because I’m already at the check out, you already followed me throughout the entire store make it make sense. As a person retail for several years please learn to engage with customers and not assume someone is going to steal just because they are black! It’s not that hard. I am disgusted.

I am sad to say todays visit was very uncomfortable as I was followed by several staff members from when i first entered. Initially there was an older blackwoman watching at the front as well as 3 staff going one aisle over to watch me. I felt so awkward I left as soon as I could. Because I am black with locs and dressed in casual wear does not equal a thief. Upon going to self checkout there was again the older black man, one young woman that looked hispanic, two black men literally standing over me as I am at the register doing self checkout. It was one point where I was trying to look something up but the man was literally on my neck lol. I don't drive and had already called an uber so i bought my items but will not be returning. Please visit at your own discretion. I now understand the other negative reviews. I had visited here before in 2020 with no issues but today was disappointing and hurtful.
