    Don't expect a bargain for used merchandise unless it's in terrible condition. $99 for a basic office desk $50 for a smaller version on discount that I googled and found for $68 new and delivered Bookcases of laminate and MDF $125

    I have a 1yr old queen bed to donate with headboard, footboard and side rails that needed to be picked up. They refused it because I did not have at least 2 items to donate. There is a family right now in need of a bed but….it was refused because I was unable to load it up and deliver it. SMH

    I would drive 10 miles out of my way to donate elsewhere. The staff, especially the donations associate, is unhelpful, surly and unappreciative. If you are unhappy or having a bad day, don't take it out on others trying to help. I will donate my dining room furniture elsewhere. Also, for those of you looking to buy, this place is extremely overpriced, go elsewhere!
