I don’t know what’s going on to habitat retail store in Delray Beach. I volunteer for habitat I did Women’s built, raised Roof, breaking ground. I mean, habitat taught me a lot. There’s a lot of DIY I did in my own home because of habitat.
This is sad zero stars for me! On 4/22/2024 I went to the habitat retail store in Delray Beach on Federal Highway. I saw some kitchen cabinet and I asked the manager for the price of them. She told me one base cost $300. Another base cost $250. I said that’s the price of it new inside the store aren’t you guys retail? She told me that the guy that took it out of the homes that’s the price he wants for them and they’re selling it for him And he doesn’t want anything lower the price is firm. So I’m like they wasn’t donated you’re selling it for another person. I didn’t know. Have a dad does that. I saw some tiles in the tiles that I was looking at. It’s the same tile that I had in my house where I bought from floordecor back in 2020 so I asked her how much is these box She went on her phone. I guess she was trying to google then she told me they’re $40 a box👀. I don’t remember paying that much when I bought them back in floordecor. So I went on floor decor website I put the SKU number that I saw on the box in floordecor was selling it for $12.60 per box $.89 per square foot. I tried showing her on my phone how much they’re selling it at floordecor. The manager of basically push me away and said there’s nothing she can do. That’s the price the manager put on the box and she can’t do nothing about it. And she’s the one that that priced it right in front of me, I asked to speak to the manager. She told me the manager is on vacation. They’ll be back Thursday. I asked another employee in there. Do they know the managers name they redirect me back to her she’s the manager so basically she lied. 🤥 then she went into her office to avoid me because I couldn’t understand why she priced the tile like that. The lady was so rude. Everything in that store was overpriced. Nothing in there is new and I thought things was being donated Why things are overpriced. Employees in there telling me that things are not even selling and after a while it’s been sitting there. They have to throw them away so habit that he is not even making These items because they’re just sitting there and I know habitat have the retail store so that way they can make money so they can build more houses. I’m gonna add pictures below and I’m also going to put the picture of the lady that told me the tiles was $40...

I came to the restore to get gentle used items at a reasonable price being a single parent and just getting a place for me and my son but i notice that they are overpriced And they aren’t even trying to get items sold or even in anyway in and out of the store. why is it that they don’t work with you and why is it a no i won’t do that i had to reach out to the district manager of the store about these items cause it’s a huge shame at a resale store i can’t even get a deal on used items they are priced at brand new item prices 600$ is a brand new couch at and furniture store and 300$ is a brand new table price. what’s really going on with the prices at these stores?! mind you some of this stuff is donated to them for FREE and they are overpricing the items this is very displeasing to see first hand being a mom just trying to get this for her home with having to hear no the prices is the price i won’t work with me i’m willing to give 300$ cash...
Read moreMy daughter is moving out of her apartment and we took her one year old Rooms To Go platform bed with padded headboard to this donation center. The man that came out was rude, spoken in half sentences and not directly to us. He didn’t even understand what it was we had and even after trying to explain it he claimed they can’t take anything that’s broken. Every piece we took out of the car, he just said it was broken and he couldn’t take it. We continued to try to tell him it wasn’t broken, we had all the parts, screws were in a plastic bag taped to one of the side pieces, showed him where all the screw went but he continued to say it was policy, nothing broken. At the very desperate end, after I had it Al out of the car he pointed to one of the plastic legs that had a jagged but not cracked or broken top where the screw goes in (but that did not affect the function or sturdiness of the bed frame) and said BROKEN. We offered to put it together for him, it takes 10 minutes… and show him everything is there and in working order. Nope. So back in the car and headed to the dumpster now. Sad because it’s a beautiful piece with no damage, snags or imperfections. If he had just tried to listen and not be obnoxious… I just feel like he didn’t want to be bothered,...
