Rag-O-Rama

My boyfriend and I decided to come in and sell all of our clothes that we don’t wear anymore. All of our clothes that we brought in had only been worn once or not at all. I kept in mind that the seasons were changing and brought in a lot of spring colors. All of my clothes were from Kohls, Forever 21, and Charlotte Rouse. My boyfriend brought in button ups and suit jackets that were $ 200 and brand name. I understand that they wouldn’t buy everything for the price I was hoping for but have a little bit of professionalism.
The rude sales associate with brown hair laughed at almost all of the clothes that I brought in and didn’t bother to look at my boyfriend’s clothes. I just thought that was rude because she may not wear it or think it was her style but someone else might. I felt she only kept things that she would wear not what their clientele would buy. She ended up keeping three things and we took the money and left.
Only come here if you want to sell your crappiest articles of clothing because brand name is too mainstream for them.

They have the best selection of clothing. Tons of clothes for woman. I always check that the clothes look new abs not faded… pricing is great residual of you hit the orange tags rack.. I never was an enthusiast of thrift but, I would recommend you at least give it a chance here.

So check this out, I almost wrecked my car Friday night (May 22^nd) when I saw this place on the side of the road. I am HUGE on bargains, consignments, and vintage type clothing! Made it my business to visit this place that Saturday and I was not disappointed! I had to catch myself because I would have bought everything on the racks. I disciplined myself and walked away with a beautiful hippie skirt and two dress… all for $ 16!!! The ladies in this shop had awesome fashion sense, very friendly, and I’ll definitely be back! But I’m going all out! Thanks ladies!

We were very happy with the customer service that we received today. My boyfriend bought a pair of Prada shoes and within the first hour of wearing them, the soul popped of. So we returned the shoes to the store and explained what happened and with much understanding, the staff was very apologetic and gave him a store credit for what he paid for the shoes. That’s customer service and that’s the type of business we like to support and tell our friends and family about! Thank you!

I have been going to this store ever since it first opened. Having been a fan of the little five points location, I was excited to have one closer to where I live. Over the years, there have been a few different managers and staff, as to be expected in retail. They’ve always been relatively nice. The new staff is pretty unfriendly, and not very helpful if you try to ask questions. The whole vibe has changed. It now seems like more of a platos closet, which is funny because there’s one right across the street. I’ll just make the trip to the little five spot, it’s still cool and the people are nicer.

I agree about the post that if you don’t fit the hipster crowd, customer service is non existent.
Good: not sure.
Bad: owner/​manager has a stuck up attitude. No customer service
Conclusion: I’ll go down the street to another consignment shop instead!

On one hand I want to be mad that I only now figured out I should go into this place, but on the other hand I’ve probably saved so much money.
I’ve been on the search for a dress that just screams tacky. After a dozen dresses in at least half a dozen thrift shops, I stopped in here while waiting for my order to be ready at Clay’s. I figured it was worth a shot.
And there it was.
A lime green with pink roses Betsey Johnson dress. IN MY SIZE. For $ 16.50!!! I didn’t even try it on, I knew it was the one and took a few looks around at shoes and then went to pay.
I thought it was silly to have a bag so I chose not to take one… to find out that if you do not take a bag, you are given a token. You place it in your choice of three boxes for three different charities at the door. HOW COOL IS THAT? I had no idea going in there.
So this is definitely going to be the store I stop in first when I need something cool. Because I know we were going for tacky, but I love this dress and I am totally wearing it outside of a theme party.

I went to this shop for the first time yesterday to sell some items, I had cleaned out my closets and had some designer summer shoes that are in great condition.
Apparently it helps to be in your 20’s when you walk through the door of this store. Otherwise, the 20-​something sales people go into their poor customer service mode.
I was thinking that if a group like the Saturday Night Live writers wanted to do a spot-​on skit with surly 20-​something sales people, they could just come and observe this place. And then they would get the finer points down to a T.
It’s fine for a re-​sale or consignment shop to not actually buy all of the items that are offered by sellers. But the standard is to handle the whole thing with professionalism. These folks just had attitude.
One of the other commenters mentioned that whether they buy your stuff depends on who you are demographically. So when you arrive in their parking lot, you might want to just observe who’s going into the shop and then decide whether you fit the mold. If not, run to the next re-​sale shop.

This place is awesome… While some may compare it to Plato’s closet however this place has a much better quality of style in clothing… The pieces you find here are so unique and the prices are GREAT… I got a pair of Prada men’s shoes from the Sandy Springs store for $ 80 now these shoes actually retail for $ 700 and o also got a authentic black Coach backpack for $ 45. However I have gotten also really nice jeans don’t brand new with the original tags still in then for $ 18. some really cool vintage pants and shirts. I have been to both locations the little five points store is huge. You can find the coolest t-​shirts at these stores made with that really soft cotton. I have to also commend them on the buy back clothing for cash or trade which has really come in handy because I have traded clothing that I had especially clothes that I had in my closet that I never worn. THIS STORE IS A DIAMOND… LOVE IT…

Hold me back — I could spend hours upon hours in this place, cracking myself up over the silly throwback t’s and crafting a trendy wardrobe for my hipster alter-​ego.
I really appreciate how clean and organized it is compared to the Little Five location. The regular items are always well organized on separate racks by category (i.e. dresses, t-​shirts, pants). Don’t get me wrong — it’s still overwhelming to dig through the chaos of clothing items to find the quirky treasures like the «Have you hugged a Dutch girl today?» t-​shirt that I stumbled upon on one of my more successful trips. But that’s what makes thrift shopping so magical. They really do have a great selection of what I can only assume to be Buckhead hand-​me-​downs.
I came for the $ 1 sale a few months ago in March and had to fight really hard to practice some self discipline. We got there right when it opened, and let me tell you the crowd was fierce. I was truly tempted to grab shirts and skirts and accessories by the armful. I felt like I was in a race or competitive event. Quirky pieces available for cheap make for hungry eyes and feisty elbows… talk about the thrill of the hunt! That type of shopping is not for the faint of heart, I tell you.
When I came in a few weeks ago to check out the offerings for Halloween, they had the costume-​y pieces sorted out by theme, from military to ethnic and everything in between. I picked up a unicorn headpiece and two non-​Halloween baggy sweaters that sucked me in with their less than $ 10 price tags and seasonal appeal. Let’s just say they had me seeing visions of myself curled up with a pumpkin flavored coffee beverage, and I couldn’t walk away without them. My friend was absolutely enchanted by a more luxurious item — a vintage Jean Paul Gaultier tassel dress. She was on the fence due to the $ 100+ price, but she could’t pass up such a once-​in-​a-​lifetime opportunity. The sweet and stylish female employees couldn’t help but encourage her to indulge in the designer purchase, emphasizing the magnificence of the gorgeous piece. They were happy to tell us a little bit about the story behind the clothes — a woman came in with a slew of designer pieces she just didn’t need anymore. They were fun for a while, but they had their time in the spotlight with her. Needless to say, my friend overcame the sticker shock and gave into the temptation for the sake of fashion.
In summary, this secondhand store is tops on my list of consignment stores in ATL. The logical layout makes vintage shopping slightly less overwhelming, the fashionable staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and the selection is pretty darn sweet for a batch of leftovers.

Nothing spectacular. A bit pricey. Always worth a check though :)

I went to Rag-O-Rama’s annual dollar sale y’all! It comes around once a year and it is a festival of Macklemore approved thrift store treasures all for $ 1. You’ll be poppin’ tags all day long. There were some crazies at this event. Bows were thrown for gently worn holiday sweaters like I have never seen before but thrifting is a battlefield and that’s no secret.
Personally I prefer the Sandy Springs store over the Little 5 store. Its smaller, less smelly, and I think the quality of clothes is better. The process is simple. You can bring in your old clothes and they take a look at them. Sometimes they take stuff and sometimes they don’t. Its dependent on how full the store is and if they think your clothes are good enough quality. You can then either get cash (a small amount of cash) or store credit. If you don’t have any clothes to sell, I would still recommend hoping OTP and taking a look around.
The staff is so very nice, helpful, and energetic. During the dollar sale, the crowd was insane and they were moving quickly, calmly, and with a ton of enthusiasm. They also tend to be super stylish and cool looking people so their advice on a piece of clothing feels reputable. There is a ton of parking at this local in the Rag-​O-​Rama lot or the one next door.
Could I have lived without my new Aztec vest, Christmas sequin vest, bright red Girl Scout shirt, and Chicago Bears sweatshirt circa 1992? Maybe… but for $ 4 I couldn’t in good conscious let these gems go home with anyone else.

This place is a lot like Junkman’s Daughter in L5P. The store has clothes, wigs, accessories, shoes… Very friendly and honest service. Unfortunately they didn’t take a lot of my clothes but they were honest of when would be a good time to bring them back.

I love shopping at this Rag-​O-​Rama. It’s conveniently located on Roswell Road (with ample parking), it has great hours (I believe they are open 7 days a week), and the employees are super nice. Best of all, they buy most of the items I bring in to sell or trade (a lot of consignment stores in the area only take designer items). The selection is great, too!

Depressing. No comparisson to the L5P location. The selection is, well, ragged. Seems more like Plato’s Closet than a Rag-​o-​Rama.

Its a simple, clean, well staffed consignment shop. If you like to find unique things, or just save some money, you should check this place out. I didnt buy a pair of shoes I was looking at this weekend and am kicking myself for it, dont make that mistake.

Cleaner, yet smaller than its L5P sister, this is still a great spot. And I’ve a feeling it’ll get even better given the neighborhood in which it lies.
I came to sell and unfortunately they’re totally full. I understand, it happens, so I was unsuccessful in my quest, but still totally happy with the experience. I have to comment on the men’s section here: it was better than I’ve seen before. Lots of like-​new sneakers and seemingly a better selection than L5P.
Plus, better parking and less obnoxious hipsters. Oh, they’ve still got hipsters alright, but not the entitled ones. The Sandy Springs version is a totally different breed.
