Very large collection of vintage items and other sorts. Ranging from kitchenware, clothes, plenty of furniture and home decor, pianos, guitars, vinyls, vhs, etc. Though some of the items are pretty pricey, beauty is within the eye of the beholder. They also have a point system. For every dollar spent you get one point. At 100 points you’ll receive 10$ off your purchase. Very polite staff also. Happy Hunting!

I have a feeling that they rely on Sony studios coming over for last minute props with an unlimited budget bc good lawd these are beyond retail prices. Art is subjective, I get that, let’s see how much they’ll pay for this etc., and they do have the largest supply I’ve ever seen in a T shop, but.... it’s insanity. And on top of that I see simple lamps and things that are literally priced higher than when they were new however many years ago. Location I suppose 🤷🏻‍♂️

I love BTS Thrift Store. Every time I visit you never know what you will find. Its like going to a museum no joke!! And for all the novice folks who state they are overpriced if you go there enough you know the prices are never static. Everyone (love you Jackie) at the register will help you out. Not to mention EVERY WEEK they have specials!! Right now everything in the store is 50% off and dont be surprised if they throw something in for free! All the young peeps here dont get the art of the haggle!! Ive found some fantastic vintage and antique items here. But you have to love to look. Im sad to hear they will be relocating but Im praying they find a new great place close by! And BTW your money is going to an amazing cause - drug and alcohol rehab. Lots of folks working in the store have either gone through or are going through the program. Ive also been there MANY a time when a homeless person came in they know needing a coat et and they just let them go take one. Hence whenever I spend here I feel good. OH and one more thing! They have a point system. For every dollar you spend you get points. Today I spent a big one dollar there but it pushed me over the limit to get a $10 credit. $10 bucks to spend free. Love BTS and everyone that works there. Cheers....

Disorderly thrift shops have hidden gems, and I regret sharing this one. Regret? Naturally, for now youll go clean out the piles of gorgeous vintage dresses and furs. Im not into killing animals to wear, but if youre going wear them buy antiquities. Here.Of course the clothes are my usual focus, but theres a lot of other household stuff and random geegaws too. Regardless, this is a good place to spend an hour letting the attention sieve for beautiful things.

The home goods were so overpriced. I found better and newer things cheaper at home goods. Didn’t even bother looking at clothes as a ragged pair of non brand shoes were priced at $80. Hope you have better luck than me.

This Is the greatest thrift store around here. Very large selection of items, everything under the sun. And really fabulous furniture. Wall Art, Crystal, shoes, clothing, linens, knickknacks, super X pensive dinner ware sets,Mirrors, men’s suits, the greatest brands you can imagine! Along with a very helpful staff. And I’ve come here for years, love this place. Great charity, helps our communities.

I bought some CDs - there were many good oldies. I saw at least 5 copies of Sleepless in Seattle soundtrack. The store had tons of stuffs. You could spend a day here. Like most thrift stores, it was pretty unorganized. Paintings and prints seemed pricey. Clothes were not sorted by style or size. This place was decent. But it needed a cleansing!

I went today to BTS and a gentleman named Jose helped me find everything I was looking for. Great thrift store with helpful staff members. Recommend 100%

Review №13

OVER PRICED!! I realize why that have an abundance of stuff in there it’s because they can’t sell it at the price they list! Fur jackets torn to shreds for $200 plus, broken art work and frames for $120-$200! Must not understand the concept of “thrift” they get these things donated and jack the prices up to retail if you bought new. Better luck with trading apps like Offer Up. Highly disappointed.

Review №16

I’ve been a weekly customer at BTS Thrift for the past three years. I love this place. I collect and source art glass and pressed glassware, and BTS is my number one stop every week. The variety of donations the shop receives from the local community is astounding. For home decor, there is something for everyone, whether it be paintings and prints, ceramics, glassware (from basic to high-end dinner- and stemware), appliances, metal and glass table and floor lamps, and silver plated metalware. The shop also has a nice selection of vintage and antique furniture. The prices tend to be higher than most other thrift stores. However, there is a good reason for this: the shop is one of the primary revenue sources and support for local in-patient drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities located nearby. That said, if you purchase several items in one visit, the staff often make a point of offering a significant discount at the register. The shop also has frequent sales - 30% off days, 50% off days, and so on. It’s a win-win. The staff - from the owner and the managers, to the floor and front counter staff - are professional, knowledgeable about the items they sell, and super friendly. They go out of their way to answer any questions you might have. I highly recommend a visit to BTS Thrift when you are in the area. You’ll be glad you did.

Overly priced items. The items cost more at this thrift store than they did when they were new. It’s crazy! Blouses for $28. An old leather jacket for $200! Why though? Pathetic!

Review №18

Honestly a huge waste of time. This store is SO overpriced. There was a tj maxx canvas print of the Eiffel Tower with words all over it for $10. Almost every painting or frame is over $100. Many are being sold for $450-800. Are you kidding me?

There was an excellent sale going on. This certainly influenced my rating. But nevertheless, stocked full of treasures if you are willing to hunt. Scored on some mens clothing and golf clubs. Would be great for anyone looking to redecorate. Staff was friendly and in good spirits.

I love this thrift store and have been a customer here for over 15 years. They have an amazing inventory of items and I have found lots of cool things over the years. Their prices have definitely increased over time, but I love that every price is up for negotiation. They are super nice people and are always willing to work with you on a deal.

I found the purses to be over priced, even with the 50% off deal they have for furniture, clothing and more til Nov 6.But if you are looking for guitars, silver, ceramic figurines or furniture this is the thrift store with the best selection.

BTS has a great selection - ranging from clothes, furniture, trinkets, kitchenware, and more. The space is well-managed, and the staff is really nice. I found some wonderful cups and baking dishes here. The prices and quality of items stocked are both quite good. Some sections are a bit over-packed and difficult to browse quickly, but if youre willing to take some time, this place has all sorts of treasures. Looking forward to coming back again soon!

Love this place and spend hours here whenever I can. Designer clothes as well as the other stuff you find at thrift stores. Nice staff and the prices.....amazing. Just be patient as you create your new outfit. Lets you try out a new look or style for just dollars. Secrets like this are the best to keep safe from your co-workers but share with all your best friends.

My favorite store for unique, antique goodies!! Their pricing is awesome, frequently have deals(sign up for alerts!), give points, has wide selections, and is very organized.I love this store. I appreciate the cause of their business as well.Just one suggestion: i wish their pricing stickers didn’t leave too much residue.

Review №36

From awesome cheap oil paintings, to sports equipment, ties and work out pants, Ive purchased a bunch of stuff here that was cheaper than a department or even goodwill and all was of much nicer quality that run of the mill modern Made in China product. Safer bet for me to get something from a bygone era so that the value is much more apparent than overpaying for something brand new that you might wind up disposing of after a few months anyway.

Ja
Review №37

Cool selection but lady at the register was very rude. If you don’t want to be there, don’t work there. Also, the prices were NOT that of a thrift store, like a blouse for $28, a knit sweater for $40 and a wool skirt for $80. Probably won’t be coming back.

Review №39

Whoever complains about price here a) doesnt know how to haggle, b) responds to employee rudeness with their own rather than understanding that they are asked for deals all day, and/or c) doesnt acknowledge how much better the stuff is here than a Goodwill. This is a REHAB run store. Most of the employees DONT want to be there! Have some compassion. Sometimes its worth paying a little more, or putting in some effort to get to know the seller.

Review №41

I wish I could give more points because the staff is really nice and helpful and there us quite a bit of clothing too. But I found it quite expensive for thrift shop that sells used second hand clothing. Items like a basic top cost 8-20$ for which you pay the same amount at H&M. Clothing that looks more expensive are 40-80$, evening dresses I saw for 120-180$, high heels for 80$.You won’t find a bargain here.

Review №43

They have too much stuff. So much that there is no room to walk through the store and it is impossible to get to certain areas within the store. If you are lucky enough to find some room to look at the book shelves and records they would rather force you to move out of the way than allow you to find something to purchase, just so they can pack more furniture into the isle space. The staff behind the counter are always pleasant but the staff on the floor are too busy too guide you through the endless piles of thrift. If you could actually look through everything I am sure you could find something awesome or something useful.

I saw a mirror outside that I liked immediately, the price was more than reasonable and the man who sold it to me (and carried it to my car even after I told him he didnt need to) was so kind.

Pros: Staff is super friendly and very patient. I seen them take their time with more then one customer and help to answer any questions the customer may have (including myself) and they did this with a smile. They also have happy hour Where before closing time everything is 20% off. I didnt know though that there was $10 min. for debit/credit cards and all I had was $5 cash (my total was $6.50 ) and they let me take my items for $5 and they even wrapped my items in paper (they were glass) and gave me a free tote since I told them I was taking the bus and needed something sturdy. That impressed me some places wouldve been like, oh well!Cons: Things are KIND OF organized. The clothes are a mess but the houseware is better to navigate through. Most of the items are overpriced. Example, I was looking to get a kettle for my mom and the only one I found was dusty, rusty, and falling apart but was priced for $10. Seriously? I could get a brand new one at Target for $15. Something like that shouldnt have been more then $3 at best. And youll find most of the items here are expensive like that.Either way Ill still go back, if you dig through the stuff long enough, youll find something inexpensive.

Review №58

One of the costliest thrift shops Ive ever visited. The merchandise is pretty high-end. It shows what Angelenos throw out and what the management thinks people will pay.The selection of mens clothing is about one-eighth of what is available for women. Prices are indicative of the designer labels.Worth a stroll.

Review №59

I love this place! And the sticker price is never what you pay for, if you know how to shop here. (Fyi, the sticker prices are for the studio people shopping for things to dress their TV and movie sets with.)- Before you go, if you dont have it already, get the Fivestars app. Search for BTS and Save them. You will receive special bonuses of 30% - 50% off about once a week. Sometimes its only for clothing or wall art, but other weeks its been for your whole purchase.- Ask the staff nicely. They are good people and work hard there, so if are reasonable with your request they will probably oblige. (Dont get all butt-hurt when they deny your request for $1 for that $300 Persian rug.)- Go during the last hour open. I feel a little guilty for this one since I lose track of the time, and the staff really just wants to go home. But they tend to be quick and throw in a lot if things for cheap closer to closing. Just dont lag, cause Im sure at some point theyll start charging double. Lol

My husband bought two couches. They smelled and were not clean. We ended up getting g rid of them before we put them on our home. No refunds of course. I dont have a problem donating but I should have gotten reimbursed for the couches. Besides all ot f this, this thrift store is very expensive as well. My money is out the window and the couches smelled horrible.To all of you out there...SMELL YOUR GOODS BEFORE BUYING FROM THIS THRIFT STORE!!!

Review №67

Friendly staff and great selection... However, Whoever chooses the prices of items needs a wake up call... 750$ on silver plated items that are common finds at Goodwill.. I mean I love digging around but always get discouraged and cringe at some of these ridiculous prices! The only time you can get close to even antique store prices (still over priced but manageable) is on their 1/2 off days. I am an avid antiquer and can promise that even the most expensive antique shops look affordable compared. Again they have good stuff and a lot but you will pay out the nose for just about everything but maybe clothes and cheap knick knacks. But by all means see for yourself.

Review №68

Very rude and disrespectful. They have two businesses going on there. One where the valuables gets filtered to the cabal while charading as helping the addicted. The other the business is selling junk 3Xs overpriced while charading the junk as antiques. They should immediately fire all the staff to avoid going out of business. Everyone that I know said they will no longer shop there until they replace the staff.

Review №71

Way overpriced. any price you would find at a typical thrift store, multiply that by like 5 to 10 and that’s what the price here will be. store was kind of a mess also, there’s enough room but way too much stuff on the shelfs. there was a lot of broken glass/pottery that was also mixed in and still being sold, someone should have gone through and thrown that stuff out periodically. i did find one mug for $1 that i decided to buy, but then the girl behind the register made some comment about how making $1 sales aren’t cutting it to her coworker. if you want more sales then how about pricing things at THRIFT STORE PRICES. i felt that was very rude, will never go back.

Waste of time. Whoever is creating the prices here has no concept of what brand new things cost or value of goods. Used IKEA bowls here cost more than they do brand new at IKEA. It’s so overcrowded of junk because everything is at least 50% higher than it should be. Nothing is priced to sell. Realy disappointed I came here.
