When I first moved to Oregon over two years ago, this one of the first thrift stores I was told to check out. It was great. Although it does close unreasonably early in my opinion, they had fair prices, and really nice employees back then. That said, the last couple times I have visited, I've been disappointed. The prices are nearly up to Goodwill prices! Might as well go to Goodwill since they're open much, much later, they provide excellent customer service, and they allow returns for store credit. They also have rules for employee purchasing which is a must for the integrity of any thrift store. Plus, there only a very tiny clothes section that you can access except on Friday and Saturday? Something like that. Crazy weird.
I want to love this place again. Hopefully they begin to remember who they are, and who they're serving (people at or below poverty level) if we had money, we'd be shopping online, or at Washington Square - let's be real here!
I also hope they get some employees/volunteers who are kind again - kindness goes a very long way in any business.
