Unique Boutique Donation Center and Store — Local services in New York

Great neighborhood thrift shop. Prices are akin to Goodwill, if not a bit pricier but the selection’s huge and they have some awesome designer finds. Almost always encounter designer shoes which generally all happen to sell for $30 or less! Nice music playlist while shopping too :)

My only criticism is they do 50% for a specific colored tag every week, shown in the entrance window. But when I went in one time, I clearly saw the color that had the 50% off and did not get the discount at all when I went to pay. Was in a rush and didn’t realize it until I looked at my receipt later. Not a very good system or they should be more cognizant and true to their word. That made a great thrifting experience somewhat...

I didn't find anything, although I saw a few possibilities. The store is quite intriguing with visual delights at every turn. The shoes were a hot mess and a little overpriced considering the condition. They had a great selection of housewares and knick knacks and some interesting jewelry. The two owners were unpacking things and let me look before they even priced them, which I thought was very nice. A guy who was clearly a regular and likely a dealer was shooting the breeze with them and seemed a little annoyed that I was checking out the new goods! For NYC, the prices were fair - but too high for me to justify a purchase this time. I can live without most stuff, unless something bowls me...

You can find treasures if you look hard enough but I will never donate to them again. The man at the front desk is rude and dismissive. Don’t bring books. I made the mistake of telling him I did not have books and he didn’t believe me and looked through the bag where he found one tiny book that I had forgotten to remove. He then said, “Is this even your stuff? You don’t seem to know what is in the bag.” Today I sent my husband instead and the guy picked through it, which the other employees do not do and made my husband take it all back. Never going in...
