| - Ok so I was in need of some quick cash & this place was only 15 minutes away from work. So I loaded up a suit case & an extra bag of unwanted or barely used items & went there right after work. First impressions are everything & this place was not impressionable at all. It smelled of stail cigaret & old clothing. The employees working there did not fit working in that place. Or maybe they did, very snobby, blank face, acted above it all. "Um... Please ladies, take a look around you?" Strange considering this place looked worse than a thrift store. I still thought for sure I would make at least $20-$40 bucks. HaAh! Yeah right! I had a Calvin Klein sweater & vest in great condition just no longer my size, a neat Obama sequined tee, several pairs of cutsie earings, & a only worn twice beaded sandals. Not to mention a few misc. items that were great for everyday use. I just didn't need these items because I have so much already. The girl was very pleasant, took out my items one by one & examined them, but had a blank face expression. After all this she only wanted to buy an old ruggedly leather belt for $4.98. NOT $5.00! Only $4.98! I chuckled, said fine, only to cover the gas expense it cost me to go out of my way. Not sure what they're looking for because I saw some of the stuff they had on the wrack. It all looked old. & the clerk called my stuff old. MY STUFF WAS FAIRLY NEW & in great condition! For some reason I felt embarrassed. I walked out feeling as though I had a tail & it was tucked very far between my legs. Needless to say I went straight to good will & donated the rest of my stuff. Of course the shoes I'll just give to my mother. After everything I told mysefl, "what did I expect, look at the area this place is located?" Yeah just because it's across from the university don't mean shit.
