Arc Thrift Store

Another great big organized neat thrift store. Great prices, except books. I think they are too expensive.

I go here because it’s right next door to my place & I love thrifting, but every time this little older woman Linda that works there, is constantly bitching about how people don’t take everything out of the fitting room, or how someone didn’t put their shoes back, or how people switch the tags to get better prices. I mean, are you insinuating something?! Every time I’m in the fitting room she knocks on all the doors & tells everyone to bring all their clothes out. I always bring all my clothes out! & if someone doesn’t, oh well. Do your job! I mean every single time. Honestly, it’s getting old. I don’t typically take the time to write a review, but in this case I’ve felt compelled to call the owner/​manager & tell them that this little crackhead is making my shopping experience kind of poopy. I’m just saying, if you hate doing your job that much, do something else. When I’m shopping, I don’t need to hear you crying about having to work. Damn lady… Oh yeah, other than that, I’ve found some pretty cool stuff there! lol

Ahh the smell as soon as you walk in… a dusty garage. To some that may be a warning to others it means an adventure to find knick knacks, clothes, furniture, electronics, or my favorite… books! The selection here is okay. I was bummed to see there was a limited selection of vinyl. The books were amazing though. Lots of choices in great condition. The furniture was hit or miss. I don’t partake in buying clothes at thrift stores due to bed bugs. I will definitely stop by again.

Found an Authentic Borbonese handbag for $ 7.99 which its an awsome price since these bags cost between $ 100 to $ 400

THE BEST THRIFT STORE! I had to stop myself before I would’ve bought so much stuff that I wouldn’t have been able to fit it into my suitcase home. They literally have everything here: clothes, kitchenwares, rugs, accessories… I even found women’s cycling clothes! The staff is also friendly but there’s not a lot of them so don’t expect a bunch of help finding anything.

As a former costume party junkie, I love a good thrift store. The ARC on Alameda is mid size for an ARC, but still has a good range of stuff– you can definitely find good costume items.
But I’ve found some really nice items as well that I use on the daily. They have a lot more (and nicer) furniture available than other thrift stores — if you’re moving in somewhere new I’d recommend coming here for some household items.
Their clothing racks are packed, but if you’re willing to hunt a little, you can find more than just 90s mom sweaters.
On the thrift store spectrum, I’d rate it at the higher end for good finds.

I will never return to this store.
My daughter had purchased a nice coffee table for her new apartment. We made arrangements to pick it up the next day. As she didn’t have friends with a truck, I had rented a moving van to transport her furniture purchases. When we arrived at the store the coffee table we had purchased was gone. It was no longer in the show room nor could they find it in the back. What made the situation worse, is that employees kept offering to help me, they would leave supposedly trying to find it and never return. This happened three times. Once with the lady who identified herself as the manager. She promised they would «make it right,» yet never returned. Finally I told them I would settle for a different table, as I only had the moving van for one day. Although I didn’t like it as much, I figured it would do. Our original purchase had been half off, I asked them to give me the new table at 50% off and refund the difference in cash, since that is how she had paid for her original purchase. At first they refused to give me half off on the table and then told me their refund policy was store credit only. I pointed out that we were not returning, in fact we would gladly take what we had purchased, but they were unable to find. They continued to refuse. I finally had to press them telling them that since they messed up they needed to make this right. Finally they did the right thing. The whole ordeal kept us over an hour in the store. Unbelievable.

SO. MANY. OPTIONS. HALLELUJAH. I was impressed with the selection and and the organization of the place. I was able to try on like 20 pairs of slacks to find the right one (I have unique nonexistent curves) and a bunch of dress shirts and an AWESOME red belt that was just the thing I needed. Will definitely be coming back this place is lovely.

Once again, found exactly what it was looking for in under a minute. It wasn’t half off, but still a great price!

Awesome, awesome place. One of the best thrift stores around. And the best part? – the money that you spend there goes to a good cause.

Ditto to Movie L. I feel like I’m letting Unilocalers in on the best thrift store in Denver. Clean, well organized and friendly staff. Helpful counter guy also said they do highest volume, so turnover is quick and there is always new stuff. Never have I seen such an extensive fabric selection, er, I mean it sucks, nothing good here folks, move along.

Stopped in here on the spur of the moment (and while on vacation). I was impressed with the store’s organization. Clothes & shoes are sorted by size, books are sorted by genre, etc. The prices are fair and on Tuesday they have a half off special on certain tag colors. There is also a senior discount.
If you like thrift stores this is a definitely worth a look.

Definitely a Pretty Good Arc. Im a fan of the half price off days. Its well laid out with kids clothes. In Different Sections and then sizes. Well laid out and its clean inside. And the employees are friendly.

One of my regular stops when going on thrift store hunts.
Large, clean, quiet. Not overly crowded. I have only shopped before closing on weeknights, however. Employees are friendly enough. I like that I can relax while going through the racks instead of dealing with shoppers madly tearing down aisles, using their carts to push their way past you. I go here to leisurely browse and walk away with a few good finds.

I like this Arc. It’s clean and the carts are pretty new. I don’t know what the cart’s tall poles are used for, and neither do the employees whom we asked. We like to go on Saturdays, when most of the stuff is half off on pricing (check the tags, different colors are half off). It’s pretty cool when you can get your kids a mountain of clothes for $ 30. I like this store a little more than the one in Arvada. It has a newer feel to it, and I was able to find clothes in my son’s size a lot easier here.

So awesome I almost didn’t want to review (so it would still be a «best kept secret») :)

Wow, this one is organized, bright and clean! Nice staff too!

I was excited to hit Arc’s newest store, I was happy. It was (gasp) clean, that won’t last long. It is huge and well organized as most thrift stores are for the first 6 months or so. Other than that it is on the larger side for Arc’s in Denver and cleaner than most. I found the quality of goods to be higher than average (see the zip code) and the pricing to be fair. Not as many smells unattended children as most thrift stores. Go check it out!
