Plato’s Closet

What sucks here? Let’s be honest. The place isn’t close from where I live one store is an hour 1 way and an hour another. It was recommended by a friends friend. Before driving the hour there, we looked on the website to see what it is that was in trend and what it is that they needed and the website in no way said they were looking for just teen clothing it included men, women, children, & teen shoes scarves and coats dresses skirts and the like. At this point we drove the hour there we had purses we had Louis Vuitton, reebok, baby phat and other brands. we had jeans which were in a higher request we had winter coats we had leather coats, dresses they took none of the items we couldn’t figure out why so upon looking around the store we see that the sizes were not all sizes. the sizes in the store only extra small, small, medium, large and extra-​large there were no plus size clothes. So this must mean there are no plus size teens either. there were things there that looked like they came out of a dollar or thrift store. I wouldn’t call it trendy. There were clothes that looked fresh out of the 1920s so I was certainly confused at what I was looking at in comparison to what the website asked for and also what they in the store were looking for they gave everything back that my friend and I bought with us. it was a waste of an hour it was a waste of a day to look through a bag takes 3 hours? Only to be called back to the store to offer us 6.00 for two items? this was my first time in the store and walking through the door I was asked for «trendy teen clothing» did I look like I had a teen just by standing there with my things? What made the girl behind the counter think I had a teen? disappointment is all you will leave with knowing that you come so very far expecting something after you read on the website what to bring, but once you get there they don’t want it. so my conclusion is the store is for teens only to purchase from; …adults, if you have made it out of your teens and into the 20s you are considered too old for the store nobody that is plus size is welcome. This store so obviously discriminated against larger sized people because teens don’t get past extra large sizes. No one is plus sized as a teen it’s just a very discriminatory store and they need to rethink their piss poor way of handling clothing as well as using the word «trendy» if they could afford Pravda and shopping at Neiman Marcus they would be there NOT this over dressed thrift store. finally, this store is a waste of time.

Honestly, waited for 10 minutes before someone came to the door at opening… The night before I was five minutes past 8 (8:05 pm) when a lady said there wasn’t enough time to process my clothes… after I had been there at 7:15 and she knew I had come all the way back. After all of that, I had Loft, J Crew, Bananna R. And boutique clothing… In pristine condition most bought this past year… They took none. Which, at that point was actually a blessing… Form your own opinion with this information, I have shopped their once before and wasn’t as displeased, but after my last encounter I definately wouldn’t recommend this place to a friend. I will be shopping elsewhere from now on as well as bringing any consignment to other shops.

I like this place. My first time in a Plato’s Closet which is strange coming from AZ where it was a lot closer to home than this place is to where I live now (Goldsboro). This was the closest clothing resale place to me. Actually I was planning on going to My sisters closet but they close earlier than Plato’s.
The store is clean and organized. I was greeted and the young ladies were friendly. I was surprised to find that they have a men’s section too! :)
The place is geared towards younger peeps. Think teen/​college age. Short, mini, tight things everywhere, well except for the mens area. Great cute stuff for pretty cheap too! Shoes, purses, sunglasses, jewelry. Everything I checked out was less than $ 10.
I did come to sell thing and out of the 3 grocery bags I brought they only took a pair of pants. Now that I know what they are lookin for I will go thru my closet and pull out that tight mini skirt and sell it here! :)
