Great deals on sruff.
Great team of staff this morning .
After visiting a lot of Goodwill thrift shops around the city, I wanted to check out a Salvation Army store too. The Goodwill shops are infinitely better than Salvation Army. This location was worn down and the inventory was lacking.Goodwill sorts mens and womens clothes by size and color which is super helpful, and their stores are clean and well-kept. This location is a messy free-for-all and I wouldnt not recommend for thrifting.
Great thrift shop! I donate to and shop from this location often. Very well run, clean, and nice staff. Clothing, housewares, records, toys. You never know what youll find, sometimes nothing of interest other times new with tags on or almost new clothing and even sporting goods.
Friendly employees and good selection of items. Just wish they also had furniture.
I like this place mainly for the book selections they have. I typically discover book titles here that I dont see in many other thrift stores that still carry books in their inventory.And on recent visits, I saw plenty of interesting brick brac items that many previous owners must have gotten tired and decided to replace. Display items, many other things for your work, house, or projects. Very good prices. You just need to know what youre looking for, or even get ideas from all the items found in this location.
Always a Good time when i go by this Store.i usually find something o need here.
I like it... prices are reasonable and also for a good perpurse. Quiet and friendly staff. And the items that are donated r in good condition. 😁👍
My favorite place in the world.I get everything from clothing, housewares, furniture...if you smart shopper and know your stuff. Its a treasure chest!
You can find some well priced items, but the people that work here are just awful.
Not a great selection, but an occasional great find. More significantly, youre helping an organization that helps others.
The personal is very kind and helpful. The clothings and other items are very decent. One can find very good things.
Nice neighborhood thrift shop. Good place to donate clothes or browse for clothing and housewears.
You have to look carefully to find some great bargains!!
A nice place to get the most important things for the right prices
I love going here at 20th street 8th ave salvation army, I always find something great prices and wonderful staff, always kind .
Lots of cool finds and good prices. Look for the color of the day 50% off
Best Salvation Army in the city. The staff is so kindly and Isaiah gets extra accolades!
Its like any other typical thrift store. But you may have to take note of what you can expect to see here as its an upscale neighborhood. Books are certainly not the usual types you see in other similar stores.
Place is a mess and most of the all clothes are old no good for The price are really expensive. I prefer spent my money in other places. Any supervisor should check this.
Allways I found something good and the prices excelente.
This place is ok if you like used clothes. No kids toys though. Large with big basement.
ONLY PASSING THROUGH MOST OF THE AREAS THAT ARE UP TO SHARE MY EXPERIENCE.
Im always able to find something new that is useful. Plus get a good deal for it.
I always bring them some sutff i will never wear again, or old books... u will get a receipt which is tax deductible... The staff is nice and polite to the customers.
I give this place two stars,cause its a thrift store,that mean u finding things 70% to 80% off the real price and it belonged to someone before.If a shirt is twenty five dollars in the thrift stores why get it..?When you can go buy a brand new shirt in Target or some where of ur choice...
Peace and Gods Blessings to all... This establishment has been around for as long as I can remember. A boon to the community in which it rests...
Its a thrift store, just like all others. You might find something .... then again, you might not!
A thrift store, where a deal can be found here, as well as, gem items. But, it takes more than one visit.
Not good enough, not very clean and they dont have good things
HATED my experience there. The African American Lady stared at me the whole time i was there. I was holding a hat that I was planning to get. She may have thought that Id steal it. It was early in the morning and it seemed like shed already had a bad day. The hat didnt have a price tag so I asked her for a price she said 5 dollars (which I thought it a bit steep). I was heading to put it back but she asks me to give it to her (probably thinking so that I dont steal it). For her to think that thered be a theif early in the morning right when the store opens, AT A THRIFT STORE. Not coming back here!
Big store. Good selection of secondhand goods and clothes
This place has been a favorite of mine for 20 years, but I just scored my best find yet: six cool message t-shirts, concert swag, political, social justice, which Ill be wearing all summer, for a total of $ 8.56 !!! Most of them were only .99¢ each. In Chelsea?!
Well organized. Very helpful staff.
A lot of good items in great condition, from clothes, decoration to books.
We do most of our donations here. Make sure to bring your items in bags or boxes they can keep. They get a little grumpy if not.
One can find top brand names for excellent price.
Great selection of comfortable worn tshirts
I love getting used books here
Digging through dirt to find gold. If you find something you like, it worth it
Very conveniently priced thrift
Salvation Army Family Thrift Stores are dirty, cluttered, and somewhat disgusting places - especially if you like your thrift clean, classy, and tidy. While the clothes are sorted with some semblance of order, the collectibles and housewares tend to be scattered around and in pretty decrepit shape. The shoes are abysmal for the most part - so beat up and gross, I would be embarrassed to donate them to charity, much less resell them!The Chicago-area stores are bursting with so much merchandise, stuff is literally piled up and falling off shelves on the ground. Now that I have been to this paltry store, I truly appreciate the Chicago-area stores. There was barely any merchandise here – where the heck do rich New Yorkers donate their discarded goods – certainly not here!The pickings here could not even be called slim. In this thrift store desert, however, I found a sleeveless top for a mere 49 cents. I was annoyed to discover it must be a national SA policy to staple price tags right on clothes – once again, this inane practice left a hole in the top, albeit a small one.The clerk was very rude – he rang up the top at $3.99 when a clear sign stated all sleeveless tops, tank tops, and shorts were 49 cents. Mind you, they had only two pairs of ladies shorts left in the entire store! When I corrected him, he bit my head off and said that this was not a tank top. I pointed to the sign and he reluctantly changed the price. Hey, buddy, I didn’t make this up – the price was stated clearly on several signs. No need to be such a jerk!
Best place for good deals
This is a bargain hunters dream. I love the salvation army, they are far more affordable then their counterpart Goodwill. The lower level is now closed and everything is on the main floor. you can find anything from handbags, wallets,jewelry, clothing, shoes, furniture, and book a all in one location. This is truly a hidden gem in Chelsea. Why spend big bucks elsewhere when you can buy second hand and give an old piece some new life at an affordable and economical pricepoint.
Great second hand store
Great store with many bargains!
Since moving to Penn South in 1996, I’ve bought many, MANY shirts here... also a floor lamp ($19) when I moved to a new apartment. The selection is almost always really interesting and, of course, really inexpensive! You KNOW that what you pay will go to supporting the wellbeing of a fellow human being - the whole experience of shopping here is well-worth it.
Service was very nice. thanks
Nice place for books
Place is always a mess.
Very cheap but can find grt deals
This is a very small store with no dressing room. HOWEVERRRRR, I walked out with a pair of Woodies Charli C clogs by Jeffrey Campbell, a Versace Sport lightweight sweater, a pair of Citizens of Humanity jeans and a Hadaki cosmopolitan tote and I paid less less than $20 for everything. INSANE!
Wanted to donate some books here. The woman who helped me said she couldnt take the books because they were dusty on the top of the spine. When I told her that a lot of the books were basically brand new never and never even read she said-- well, i aint cleanin em. Took the rest of our books to a different place to donate. Avoid donating here- they are rude and not at all interested in helping anyone.
This is the most expensive location.
Prices are to high very close to retail prices
Awesome.. great prices..
I love this store and Ive found many costumes and props for my childrens theater. I also donate to them and have never had any problem.Some people (like Jennifer Hansen) dont understand the business model. The Salvation Army is not going to give your table to someone in need. They sell things and use the proceeds to run their programs. They only want items that are easily SELLABLE. So they will not accept furniture that has flaws.
Quick and easy to donate clothing items
Employees are very nasty and rude. I usually dont care about nasty employess as long as I find good stuff but their employees are so bad that i left the items on cashier without paying for two times. I used to go there everyday but I dont go anymore. Cashier girl is always on phone with her headphones. While i was paying I thought she was talking to me but she was on phone. This happaned several times. Manager increases prices -or not sell at all- according to your skin color and gender. Previous manager lady was very nice who works at East 23rd St. store now.
Another persons trash is anothers treasure.
Often 1 or 2 great finds. Worth the sorting through.
Tried to donate a table to salvation army. Called the day before to confirm my pick up and they told me great news, youre the very first pick up theyll be there around 8:30. So, I planned on being able to be in at work on time, 10:30 rolled by, I called to check, no they said, youre 6th on our list, theyll probably be there before noon. Two guys showed up around noon, after an extremely cursory glance they refused to take the table because one of the panels had slight warping. No breakage, no real damage, just some warping. I highly doubt someone in need cares about the warping. I was relying on the table being removed that day for new furniture to come in. Tried to do a good thing by donating a Crate & Barrel table to someone in need, got left in the lurch after waiting all morning.
Nothing interesting at this location but who knows.
Great retro merchandise
The organization is non-existent, there is no fitting room, and no returns.

2022-03-18Wow. Impressive. Cleanest thrift store I have ever been in. Well organized. Staff very helpful. Appreciated things are in working order and good condition. Bonus that they were having a sale and everything half off. Might have splurged on a thing or two.

2022-06-07Loved my visit here! Got a few cute things for amazing prices especially for a Manhattan thrift store. The goodwill nearby has insane prices so finding this was awesome! The staff is also super friendly here.

2022-06-05This is one of the good thrifts in NYC: cookware, books, mens clothing all pretty good to great. Very nice staff and the store is clean enough. However I cant make heads or tails out of how the store is organized. But def worth a trip. These folks put up with a lot and deserve props.For all you old timers, I miss former manager Angie and her crew. Angie didnt take no s#&t from anybody, you could eat lunch off the floor, and somehow the merchandise was just better than any other store. This isnt to disrespect the current store cuz they are better than most, but 2008-2012 approximately was something else. Angie if you out there, a big hug to you. And Claire, and Kevin, and anyone else I forgot .Damn, Im really an old guy now, reminiscing. Wow.

2022-07-15I stopped by today and a woman customer was trying to explain something to a male employee. The employee interrupted her loudly and told her she wasn’t listening. When she tried to explain herself again, he became louder and said, “STOP. Stop talking. You need to listen to me.” She sounded reasonable and calm the entire time but either way, NO ONE should be talked down at in that manner, especially by an employee.

2022-05-27Whenever you might need a keyboard, mouse, cabling, printers, extra monitors or computer periphery, wires etc. SALVATION ARMY ROCKS!I ALWAYS go there to get a new Logitech wireless keyboard or mouse, in superb condition and perfect working order from $3.00 to $8.00 max, when needed. The same for audio visual items and cabling like HDMI

Review №8
2022-06-03New Management are not personable. Ive been shopping in the Store long before theyve arrived which is probably since the start of the new year(2021). Some of the item are being priced outrageously. These items are being donated and shouldnt be sold for exorbitant prices.Update 06/03/2022Theyre not as bad as far as prices goes You can find some good deals in there The people who I was talking about are no longer working there so the places much more pleasant to shop at.
