Resale Depot — Local services in Blackman Charter Township

DO NOT SHOP HERE IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR COMMUNITY!!!! If you are looking for a place that cares for and wants to genuinely help it's community do NOT go here. They claim to be a thrift store but act like an antique store in their prices. My partner and I went to the counter with 4 small Winnie the Pooh stuffed animals that are a set. They have Velcro on their hands as they are all supposed to hold hands together. These plushies are maybe 2-3 inches tall. 3 of them were priced INDIVIDUALLY at 4.05 with one being 7.05. Assuming that maybe they didn't realize they were a set we went up to the register to ask and the assistant manager came up. She was extremely rude and told us that nothing they have is a set. She made sure to mention that the one that was 7.05 was priced higher because of the RESALE VALUE! As a business who gets all of their items from donations who do you think you are? This is the most unchristian "Christian" organization I have come across here in Jackson. PLEASE if you are looking for a religious business that ACTUALLY helps their community go to 4ubyu which is owned by the nicest Christian woman who basically gives away what she has because she understands that what she is given is donated. You can also go to St Vincent's who actively provide funds to local food pantries in Jackson. Never going here again they are truly morally and ethically bankrupt and do not follow the teachings of any god I know. "For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs." - 1...

I love wandering around in here looking at the overpriced antiques. It's nostalgic, like a museum of stuff that was in your grandmother's kitchen when she passed. Lots of fancy cat knick-knacks, crystal wine glasses, and some old records.

That's all thrift shops though, paying for the sentiment more than the material value, it's a business model that thrives on novelty items. The neat stuff is a lure to draw you in to buy something else for a reasonable price.

There is a small but decent selection of DVDs and books for some really great prices. Some of the clothing prices were a bit high. Good furniture prices, but the wall art is a bit much.

There are a lot of good prices on some of the electronics, but make sure to inspect them thoroughly, you get what you pay for, cosmetic tarnish is okay, but battery corrosion is not. Some things can be cleaned up and fixed and you got a good deal on the parts.

There is a lot of stuff that I could end up impulse buying and never using, which is probably how the store acquired it as well, people cleaning out garages of stuff they don't really use, but might be useful in an odd circumstance.

I love how well it's organized and spacious across multiple large rooms, not claustrophobic at all, and there is something interesting to reminisce about pretty...

Let me tell you, my first trip to Resale Depot was an adventure! I spent a delightful afternoon browsing their treasures, from housewares that whispered forgotten house parties to clothing that could win a best-dressed-in-another-decade award. Just when I reached check-out with my mountain of DVD's and my garden supplies. the universe threw a little curveball.

The computers went kaput, the internet blinked out of existence, and for a glorious moment, we were all transported to a simpler time – a time of cash registers and abacuses (okay, maybe not that far back). But the amazing manager, took it all in stride.

We all had a good laugh while she expertly rang up my purchases. Plus, the manager's quick thinking and positive attitude solidified Resale Depot's place on my "must-visit-again" list.

So, if you're looking for a place with unique finds and a dash of unexpected charm, head on over. Just be prepared – you might end up with a little technological...
