Thriftique - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Fergus O'Doherty

I FOUND THE SAME.$98 CASHMERE JACKET FOR $70 ON EBAY, A HATHAWAY 100% CASHMERE 3 BOTTON.....$70 ! and the $20 Artisan Angkor silk scarf on Poshmark $16...so ask for some wiggle room on the prices.

Overpriced and disappointing selection that’s apparently supposed to be considered “high end”. Most other thrift stores can’t give away large brown wooden armoires and they have the gall to try and charge $300 for a large, brown entertainment center that hasn’t even been converted to a proper wardrobe or something more useful than holding an outdated tube tv. Some of their merchandise is almost destroyed but they still have exorbitant prices. They had some small Pyrex containers that had almost no paint left for 8 dollars. I’m happy to support charity but I’m sure they’d be much better off charging lower prices and moving merchandise faster and actually making money for their charity than trying to charge ridiculous prices. They had some items that actually seemed nice like the mcm candle sticks but those were also priced extremely high. Maybe if they were a confirmed Rude Olsonik piece or something similar they’d be worth that on eBay but definitely not in a local second hand store.
I wouldn’t shop here.

Not plus sized friendly. Their clothing is all sorted by color, not size. Already I know that 90% of the clothes in any given thrift store aren't going to be my size, I usually wear a 2xl/size 18. Of the 10% that will fit me, most of them are usually shapless/black and not cute. As a plus sized person, it's incredibly demoralizing to go through all these cute clothes that I know won't fit me, and just reminds me of how forgotten and disregarded people my size are by the fashion industry in general. I sorted through their clothes a bit and honestly didn't find a single item of clothing that would fit me. When thrift stores sort by size, it greatly reduces the emotional labor I have to go through to find clothes that fit.

For clothing that's priced in the $10-20 range, you'd think they'd be able to afford the manpower to sort by size and color, instead of making the customer do the work of sorting by size.

No public restrooms...will not return...being pregnant or having health issues means that these ppl can't go here. And as looking at prices as I hunted down the restroom...they were inflated

If I could give it zero stars, I would. I genuinely don’t know how this place has sustained itself from a business standpoint with the absolutely ludicrous and outrageous price tags they put on used clothing and vintage items. It’s a shame to see a small local business running their store like they’re serving a community economically akin to LA, NYC, or another metropolis. This is Pittsburgh—most people shopping at resale and vintage stores are not going to be able to splurge for the high ticket prices they seem to think are realistic, nor would be naive enough to when other thrift stores in the area aren’t out of touch with reality in their pricing systems. $850+ for used fur coats Come on…

I don’t understand how they are allowed to have “thrift” in their name. Prices are outrageous. Charging so much for donated clothing. I went in a pair of shoes caught my eye. ASICS Diablo. They are charging $75. You are a thrift store. Then I go look at the coats and see a Columbia jacket that isn’t in the best condition for $60. Then a north face jacket (not a winter coat but jacket) for $50. These prices are worse than actual buy/sell/trade stores, and they get everything donated to them. Disappointing. If you are looking to thrift save your time and just go to the goodwill around the plot.

I’ve wanted to love thriftique but can’t get past that many of the donated goods are priced at $80-150+ and the way they organize the non-designer section makes it nearly impossible to shop their thrift-priced items. For some reason the designer section gets sorted by size and the other by color, which isn’t helpful if 90% of what catches my eye won’t even fit me.

Literally every time I bother to come in this one it’s an odd experience. Today every time I went into a section they told me “oh you can’t buy that it’s for tomorrow”. This was half the store. No signs or markers indicating that. Why put it on the floor if it isn’t for sale, do stuff like that after hours. The stuff I could buy is, as always, your basic goodwill thrift store pieces marked so high you would think it was a consignment store. But note, this is not as curated as you would think from the layout. Please stop at any of the other amazing vintage stores in this area, you can skip this one.
