Habitat Littleton ReStore — Local services in Denver

Went to the store and tried to DONATE items we have had. Our table was considered an Antique even. The donation team in the back didn't act at all as if they want to be at work or try to help in any way, like I was bothering them by dropping off free items to give to the less fortunate.

On the website, it states that they will take almost anything as they do restoration on older items in order to sell or put in homes. The website also states that they will take oven ranges up to 15 years old. I had a Table with 4 chairs, a wooden hutch for design in a dining area, and a oven range. They DIDN"T TAKE ANYTHING...I had to drive to the nearest Arc Thrift Store which took everything. The unloader at the back took half a glance at my oven range and said it was too old, I asked how he knew that and his response was "I just know".

When I was in the military, we built houses for HfH and know how the process works. Either the company has changed from providing good natured service to those in need and is just for profit or the employees just don't want to do the only thing their job entails.

It you want to do some good and donate items, use Arc Thrift Stores as they show that they are there...

The last time I set foot in this location I received a very informative explanation of the pricing model that habitat uses as well as a whole bunch of bad attitude from the MOD as she explained that people donate items and then they determine the items condition and more times than not price it at 40% of what they find it priced for online new. Bear in mind that if they feel it is whorth more then they go higher. Think about that when you’re 5 bucks short on a donated sofa they are selling for $100 dollars (all profit) and because they wouldn’t negotiate with you or after the snooty tirade, extend a hold on the item and the person behind you buys it instead. The MOD proved her point and proved that Habitat for Humanity like all non-profits and intact profit seeking entities and the people who manage them are bottom line focused only. Either they are diehard serious about building houses or they are receiving incentives to maximize profits on 100% free uses items at as close to MSRP as the customer will buy. It’s a sad...

Way over priced. I went into restore on Quincy looking for a faucet for our kitchen. I had been to Lowes and Home Depot looking and thought maybe I could save a buck by going to the Restore. Huh! I found just what i was looking for, a retractable kitchen faucet sprayer. I picked up the box grabbed a few things then went to the checkout. They wanted $150 for a faucet. Really!? Lol the lady at the cash register told me I was getting a great deal because this faucet was $450 at home depot.. I had just left there and something similar was anywhere from $89 to $200. But thats new with all the parts in the box. Not some donated box. All these thrift stores googling every f ing thing that comes in their doors has made me think, " I should have a garage sale before i donate to these greedy "charities". My parents PAID $7000 to go help build houses with habitat for humanity for their vacation one year in Haiti. They paid for their lodging and food as well. So who...
