Used, Vintage & Consignment near Newington, NH

“Not really sure the rime or reason behind what they take and what they don’t - I have sold many big items to them and have never got top dollar but was always satisfied as donating leads to no money which I don’t mind but for bigger items I like to see some profit - clothing is a hit or miss what they take and I’m not sure their logic as they have taken some of less desirable items and left some big dollar items. From a shoppers prospective I feel some things are reasonably priced others not so much and as I said not sure the logic behind the pricing. Staff is always friendly to me though seems a little flighty at times but never the less very friendly and kind. Only negative is being a store called “children's orchard” I can never take my child in with me as she is 8 months and her car seat barley fits down the isles and shopping is a huge discomfort. The store is so over stocked I can only shop when she’s with my husband because the whole process becomes stressful. Fill a bag sales are great but the store was so full I didn’t have much time or space to check out all the regular priced items. Isles are so tight you can’t even see someone coming from the opposite side. Sundays are a great day it is much quieter. Only advice I have is if it’s going to be a Children's store then make it more accessible for small children in car seats etc.”

“The experience of walking into Drift makes you smile! The place is styled and curated with great detail to create their own unique vibe. The service is cheerful and helpful led by an amazing female team! ? The up cycled hand crafted apparel is original in design and style and made with so much intention adding great value! There is something for all ages in the store that will add a pop of fun into your wardrobe!”

“An amazing shop! I photographed a wedding in Connecticut and the bride wore a dress from Cotillion. She raved about her experience picking it out, etc. and it looked great to boot. So, I'd say Cotillion Bureau is wedding photographer endorsed!”

“I love this shop and have always had a pleasant time here. The owner is very nice, friendly and helpful.Prices are very reasonable and each item is carefully curated to insure high quality. I bought a couple very nice real wood furniture items that will last forever and bring joy to my family for years!”

“Great selection, shop owner was very friendly and welcoming. Prices were fair on all the items as well. Bought one thing while I was there. I will definitely be returning.”

“Recently got a new television for our living room and we didn't want to hang it on the wall like we normally do so I spent weeks looking for the perfect console and stumbled upon this one. It fit the bill and checked all the marks. Not only is it gorgeous, but it is heavy duty. Real wood inside and out - no corners cut. Got it delivered in a large box safely packed and it took only 10 minutes to assemble with no issues unlike some other big box furniture stores. This particular piece is part of certain line of products they carry and if we had more space I would be going back to get the full matching set. Buy it for life furniture at a reasonable/competitive price. 10/10”

“The new owner is very nice and the negative comments are about the old owner. The store is wonderful and the new owner is very nice to customers! Lots of stylish clothes and deals at this establishment.”

“Thank you Jeff, once again, for helping us find the perfect rug and the perfect nightstand! You are so knowledgeable and accommodating! Always appreciate shopping local!”

“This little shop is always changing, with a new theme and fresh inventory. I browse often, find wonderful accents for decorating my cottage, and appreciate the fair pricing. The people who work there are very friendly and helpful. One of my favorite places to browse and shop!”

“I love Wear House. If you want to be the most fashionable fashionista this is secondhand like you have never experienced before. Come here if you want to treat yourself to something luxurious without breaking the bank. Wear House includes designers of haute couture. Angela has a keen eye for style. Boutique style dressing rooms with flowy high curtains and brick walls with recessed lighting. A great shopping experience selling higher quality, stylish products, and pieces you wouldn't find at large shops. I love this place!!”

“This shop has soooo many pretty vintage lights. They are reasonably priced. They also have some architectural salvage. The owner is friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this shop.”

“I am a regular reseller at Plato's and just want to give these hard working gals at Plato's Portsmouth a good review after stumbling upon these reviews! There is a learning curve to selling at Plato's. They want clothes that appeal to their audience which is very young. I see so many offended sellers in these reviews and I feel like in some cases, there is a simple misunderstanding of the business model here. The store is full of teenaged shoppers. They will buy an oversized sweatshirt from American Eagle over a high end cashmere sweater...because that is what sells there. lululemon items are like gold. There doesn't need to be judgement added to what they take or don't take. Bring higher end items to a higher end consignment shop. A lot of times, when there is overstock in a particular size, they will ask you to bring the items back next time. I always check the store's instagram story before bringing in items. I try my best to bring in items that were in stores within the past 3 years. Many brands have the season and year on the inside tag, not the size tag at the top but the other tag within the body of the garment. The store is constantly needing to adjust hours due to being understaffed. The staff that stays works hard. I find the staff to almost always be lovely, especially the staff that has been there for a long time. As a regular in the store I can say I see on almost every visit a hopeful seller coming in who is completely clueless to the process there and they often get snippy with the staff simply because as consumers they didn't have an understanding of how things work there even when the staff member is politely explaining things for what could be the 20th time that day. I can see where that could be hard to deal with especially for the youngest staff members there. I love selling and shopping for my teens at Plato's Portsmouth!”
