Reply to comment by ScareJessica2Death in Best thrift stores around Pittsburgh? by confus3dkat

based on all these comments, and based on my thrifting experience, the RW+B on 51 is NOT the best thrift store. it is certainly * a * thrift store, but it is hardly "the best" and i hate when people suggest that place.

i prefer a thrift store with:

  • a place with good parking

  • a place with a good selection of reliable furmiture

  • a place wirh a variety of clothes and brands

-items that arent priced 2x as much (RW+B prices items for the sale. a coat that should sell for $20 will be priced at $40...and will likely not sell until their 50% off day...and they know this)

-a place that prices things so a flipper can still make a buck. RW+B will often post "Sells on Ebay for $X.xx" on their stuff behind the counter

-a place that accepts debit cards/credit cards

-a place with a dressing room

-a place that is generally clean

-a place that does not have a line that wraps around the entirety of the floor plan on wednesdays/saturdays

-a place that is open past 6pm on a weeknight so i can go there after my day job

i really could go on and on...but if you're cool with the OPPOSITE of everything i listed above, then i guess RW+B is the place for you
