Never Know Thrift Store

Don’t tell anybody about this place, this is my secret. He also fixes computers, he fixed my computer that two other well known computer shops said they could not fix. They advised me to go buy another computer, because our four year old HP Pavilion was too old. My son was over joyed when the handsome young man fixed our computer. I would rather buy recycled items before I have to buy new.

Stopped by for the first time today. Found it to be decently sized with a lot of merchandise –mostly clothing and even a good number of large furniture pieces.
The store is organized, but too dimly lit to browse for long. Some of the clothing pieces seemed priced too high for being so unfashionable, but the store gets points for having a plus-​size section.
I did score an arsty linen shirt but I doubt I’ll come back to this store since they are cash only and don’t offer a student discount.

Jackpot! This place was a great find. Large, lots of merchandise and GREAT prices. We got 50% off everything we picked out that day, because as the name says, «you never know».
Clothes, dishes, shoes, furniture, linens, lamps, electronics and free street parking.
We shall return!

I embarked on a «thrift quest» today on PCH and the third place I found was this one. The selection was pretty average but I did find a few little gems in the toy section, plus a nice push broom for $ 6. The young man working the counter was friendly and helpful. Even though I didn’t find what I was looking for, I got a really good vibe from the place and will probably be back.

I’ve been on a mission to find 180 vintage plates for my wedding, so I decided to explore all of Long Beach. This was definitely a place to shop! Although its a bit crammed as the other review said, it does not take away from the awesome finds there! They have a good selection of furniture (different and nice) with delivery!!! If you live close enough. Rodrigo and Norma are very friendly and since I bought a lot of dishes and tea cups (half off $ 1-​$ 3) Rodrigo helped me carry everything to my car. They have everything there: furniture, washer, dryer, refrigerators, vacuum cleaners (like 10 or more), bedding, wallets (got the cutest mint green one for 50¢), mirrors, etc. I have been to quite a few thrift stores during my explorations and truly found this to be at the top due to price and quality! They are even willing to lower the price on furniture if its reasonable. I went to 15 places in LB and this along with Out of the closet where my top picks. Coming from Fullerton, I will definitely be coming back! Thanks Norma and Rodrigo!

This thrift store is a little hard to get to, there is only street parking and I noticed that there is no handicapped access (stairs only).
Once I walked in, the lady at the counter told me that the green and white tags were 50% off in Spanish. Lady, I haven’t spoken Spanish since high school! Good to know they have deals though.
There is little in the way of organization, but there are sections for the clothes. The rest of the items are haphazardly piled on top of each other in the back/​edges of the store. Good luck with that; I tried to explore but the aisle got too narrow at the back and claustrophobia got the best of me. Also, no dressing room.
Most of the stuff just looked old, without any real ‘gems.’ Clothes are run of the mill, but I managed to find a nice striped shirt that still had the tag on, and I saw dresses with nice prints that I would totally repurpose if I had sewing skills.
Payment is cash only!
Prices are average, but the space is too unorganized for my taste. If you are passing by or trying to kill some time it’s worth a look, but don’t go out of your way.
