Out of the two locations the downtown seems to be the best of the two I always seem to find something of interest and the prices are fair. Staff is pleasant and the store has a lot to offer. Out of all the secondhand stores in Ithaca this and Thrifty are my go to stops!

Great people doing great things, with great stuff that people didn’t want or need anymore.

Overall, it’s a great place, and my wife and I will definitely be returning. We enjoy visiting thrift stores, and this one is a regular stop for us. While the prices are generally fair for many items, some things do seem a bit overpriced for what they are.
