I have such mixed feelings about the store. I come often and frequently find something that I like, but there are days where I go in, and I just don't even want to stay. Today, the girls who were working there were talking so loud that I walked in and straight out because I couldn't enjoy my experience. Hit or miss! read more

I think this is often a great place for finding clothes. It can be hit or miss for me--but that's true in any store. Overall they have some great, high-quality clothes, and what you spend really varies. There are dresses in the $300s but you can also sometimes find a dress for under $100. They also have sales so depending on what's happening there on any given week you might be able to find something that has been significantly marked down. read more

just had the rudest most intense micro-aggressive encounter by the woman working the check out. blonde, glasses on. likely the owner or manager. i'm latina - she was white. i was browsing the store, she watched me look at jewelry, came near me to put clothes on a rack & then proceeded to tell me there is a store 5 doors down that is an Outlet & has "everything on sale". i asked her why she was telling me this? she did not approach anyone else in the store to tell them a thing. she said she "tells everyone". i proceeded to leave soon after because who in their right mind would want to continue shopping in an unwelcoming environment? let alone put money in someone's pocket who clearly doesn't want it. hope any1 of you has some sense to understand what this means. and if not, keep on supporting those who don't support others. read more

This place has the worst customer experience ever if you're trying to sell something through them. They don't answer their emails, are rude in person and gives you the brush off if you no longer want to sell with them. I brought in 4 pairs of designer shoes for them to sell and after going through all the back and forth, their online portal never worked on day 1. Called them multiple times and was told it's up to me to track if any of my items sold. Not sure how I can do that if none of my items showed up on the portal. After 3 months, I decided to retrieve my shoes. When I showed up, they lost all my original dust bags and the heel taps on my Gucci's were missing. At least the owner offer to pay for the repair after I reached out with pictures of the shoes while I was in the store with her 2 workers there as proof it was broken in the store before I brought it home. Save yourself the aggravation and DON'T CONSIGN HERE! You have been warned. read more

I absolutely love this store and make a special stop in any time I'm in the area. They specialize in more high-end consignment, and you can always find such beautiful vintage designer clothing here. The shop is so well organized and meticulously arranged by occasion/color. Prices range from average to above average, so there is something for everyone. This is a great place to find amazing pieces that will be in your wardrobe forever. read more

Kind and helpful staff. Beautifully curated. Not sure why it doesn't have 5 star reviews. Purchased a wine colored Rebeca Taylor leather blazer and if not short on time would have tried on a gazillion things. read more

A friend said we should stop in. We did and were immediately greeted by a lovely young lady and an adorable younger girl who recites her discount pitch to us. It started out so cute and welcoming. We scanned the store, I found a cool skirt, and I noticed I was being followed by the dirty-blonde middle aged woman. Since she was following me I decided to diffuse the uncomfortable atmosphere she was creating and take the opportunity to start a conversation and give her a pointer about advertising skirts with pockets because they are such a catch. She immediately took offense and made the whole thing even more uncomfortable. My friend was deeply annoyed at her extreme lack of customer service skills at this point and stormed out. Confused, I tried to help her understand what I was saying but she remained rigidly offended so I promptly followed my friend out the door. We turned the corner and had an amazing experience at a vintage shop nearby where we had a significantly better experience and purchased a ton of cute stuff. No attitudes or weirdness and a hell of a lot of graciousness. It was a breath of fresh air after having dealt with the unnecessary gravity at Brooklyn Consignment. read more

Twice in the past, in NY City and another part of Brooklyn, I was cheated by consignment stores and became extremely suspicious about them--those places took my items, sold them and passed on only a fraction, or in one case, none of the proceeds. Whether through poor administration or lack of ethics, the result was upsetting. When I brought a number of items to Consignment Brooklyn this summer and only one item had sold by mid September, I queried the manager, Lucy, by phone. She was very pleasant and explained the store's process which entailed holding back most of the items for better sale timing. However, given my past experience, I became suspicious and asked for my goods back. Lucy gave me no flak about this and my items were all collected and returned the next day. Very organized and very professional. My suspicions were totally unfounded. Consignment Brooklyn clearly does have excellent administration and fills an otherwise difficult to find niche between The Real Real's focus on ultra-luxury brands only, and many other consignment stores' preferences for T shirts and jeans. My apologies to Consignment Brooklyn, and my recommendation to Yelp readers. I did find good service there as a seller, as well as some good buys for myself and my grown daughter. read more

First off I heard about this place before but never found any real time to go. However, this weekend I stop by and yes the merchandise is A+. No doubt about it and stage nicely in the store as well. It really has great vintage designer selections, especially handbags and shoes. However, as everyone has said if your on a budget this place is not for. Also, if you like a little customer service with the price you paying, this is not for you either. The Handbags & Shoes are the bees kness:) read more

Really good selection of minimalist and eclectic clothing and shoes. Really great vibe. A bit of a pricy side with the shoes but it's Celine and maryam nassir zadeh after all. There are moderately priced shoes, great styles. Clothing ranges from like $90 to $300 or so. I really loved it, walked away with a marni dress for $165. read more

This is the first time that I have ever left a review on yelp. I have been shopping at this store for many years. On Saturday, October 16th I was in the store and saw a pair of earrings that I loved. However, the earrings have no backings on them when I inquired about it the sales woman said "If we had any it would be on there". I returned on Saturday, October 23rd and I decided to buy them and the sales woman suggested that I purchase some backings from Amazon. Since I love the earrings I figured this would be an easy fix but, to no avail. I tried 7 different backings and none of them worked. The earrings keep falling off my ears. I reached out to the store and was hoping that given this scenario they would be accommodating and would allow me to make an exchange for a much higher priced earrings that I liked. Nope, they would not allow store credit or a refund. I didn't want a refund and I didn't need store credit because I was ready to make my next purchase. When I spoke to Charlotte the store manager on Friday, November 5th she was very professional and offered to pay for new backings. However, I don't think the backings is the problem or the solution since the stem on the earrings are too worn out so nothing will worked. I let Charlotte know that I am very disappointed in the way this is being handled and that I will never shop in this store again. Unfortunately, that didn't seem to matter. read more

Idk how this place doesn't have all five star reviews. I'm obsessed w it. I love thrifting/ consigning and this spot is dangerously close to my house. Every time I've gone in I've found something I love. They have everything from madewell to nasty gal to Armani to reformation. Today I went for their 80% off basement sale and it was so good and so fun to search through their selection. The clothes are very well maintained and the store is very organized and clean. I met the owner Eva today who is an angel. I couldn't recommend this spot more. read more

I love supporting local businesses and high end clothing... I think this store has gotten a little too full of itself. It used to feel welcoming and interesting (with way more high end labels), and my more recent experiences have been disappointing. The owner is not friendly (condescending), which is a strange mix given she should want to cultivate relationships since they help business. The staff are either overwhelmed or disinterested, with the exception of one woman who is very friendly and helpful, finding me a great dress. Going back to the good ole days is a good idea... read more

These people are professionals! I brought some of my higher end designer clothes here for the first time in October 2019 and I'm so glad that I did. Lucy was so helpful. She took the time to explain the process to me and patiently answered all of my questions, even via email. They sent me a contract shortly after dropping my clothes off and I was very pleased with the pricing. However, after a few weeks I did decide to keep my items and they quickly and politely returned them to me. Spring cleaning is coming up so I'm sure I'll be visiting again soon! read more

I read the reviews and I still went. The staff are rude. I was the only person in the store and they spoke to me once-or maybe I was dreaming? They definitely should not be in the business of selling anything since they were clearly not interested in selling clothes. The clothes were pretty nice. They appeared as though they came from some wealthy woman's closet 3 years ago. They were mostly timeless pieces but there were definitely some dated items. The shoes were the best part of the store. I actually liked a nice pair of designer shoes but decided not to purchase them since the staff were too busy helping themselves to an attitude rather than helping me. I left. I might come back but I definitely won't make a strong effort to. read more

I have a love/hate relationship with Consignment. I love the store. I hate the fact that, once there, I cannot shop to my heart's content. I enter the store repeating the number on my bank account balance in my head, well knowing I have rent to pay, birthday gifts to purchase, plane tickets to reserve, etc...And then I see that 3.1 Philip Lim jacket I so desperately wanted last season but am much too poor to afford. Only now it's 40% off. Who cares if it's a size big and it's still $300-something with the markdown?! I usually walk out empty-handed (and give myself a big pat on the back) but I am sure I'll do some damage there soon enough. Oh, one Actual complaint: watching the overly-smug sales people silently judge my outfit is more than a tad irritating. It's so "Pretty Woman" without the prostitution bit. read more

The clothes are beautifully curated, high end designers. But I do wonder about their pricing. The very first time I went into the store I spotted a pair of gently used Jacqueline Schnabel for Calypso shoes selling for @ $200. The irony: I had purchased those very same shoes the year before for $50 at a Calypso end of season sample sale. Essentially, Consignment was selling the used item for full price when the very retailer who sold the line (as an exclusive no less) had already moved them out. So do your homework before purchasing...or you could be paying full price for used items. As for the staff, quite honestly, you can walk into Bergdorf's dressed in rags and you will be treated a thousand times better. It would almost be better to just have one person whose only responsibility was to manage the cash register and let customers manage on their own. read more

I passed by this store thinking it was just another boutique but then I noticed the designer shoes on the window display and my heart nearly skipped a beat!!! I couldn't believe my eyes. I barged into the store within seconds. I saw shoes, purses, and clothes!! My eyes were jumping all over the place. I think I almost passed out. I have been searching for a specific designer shoe in patent leather for months. Boy, I couldn't believe my eyes when I actually saw them there----- in MY SIZE!!!!! They fit like a glove. They were barely used and priced $275ish. Consider this a TOTAL bargain.... as the original price is well above $700+ (not including tax). I think they get their "inventory" every season (have to call and confirm), so it's not like those consignment shops that get stuff every day. However, I'm going to drop by every two weeks or so to check out the merchandise. I have my eye on several other things at the store. My only regret? I really wish I could have found this place earlier. I am in LOVE with this consignment shop. There are so many great designer items for a good fraction of the original price. These are quality items that will last a very long time. Oh yeah, shame on those writing mediocre reviews just because the prices are not within your range. Tsk Tsk Tsk. Just because you cannot afford something, it doesn't mean it's not good. Overall, this place is a total gem!!!! So if you're into designer clothing, shoes, and purses, and NOT on a budget, this place is a must. Actually, don't come. Stay away. You might buy something I may want to buy. Why I am evening writing this review. Oh lord. read more

It's a fine place to drop by every once in a while -- you may find some good deals but quality of inventory has gone down, and it's probably because the consignor experience leaves a lot to be desired. I understand it's a small operation with a small support team, but they've been around for some number of years and with increased volume, you'd think they would figure out how to scale. If you are looking to consign: Only do so if you ultimately don't care how much money you make, because it won't be much. Even if sold at evaluated price, the percentage split with the store and the consignor leans heavily in the store's favor. Further, anything that doesn't sell will be put on sale, at which point you'll make little to nothing. Also, forget about visibility -- you'll get an itemized list with evaluated price anywhere between 2 and 6 weeks after you drop off the items, and you won't have any idea which items sold or are still sitting on the sales floor. They'll toss this up to "we have a small team." After a period of time, items are put on discount but it's on you the consignor to keep track of when this date is because again, they're too small a team to give consignors a heads up. If you want to cancel a consignment, you can email them and they'll send you a snappy email to pick up asap because they're a small store. Oh.... and.... they charge you 5 dollars per pay out check. TLDR; fine place to shop, but consign elsewhere. read more

Staff can be a little standoffish at times but who cares, I need shoes, not friends. I try to come here often since the selection is always changing and oftentimes there are actually size 5 shoes that actually fit me. For example, today I tried on Costume Nationals - perfect fit, great condition, just not exactly my style. Also, Jimmy Choos. Same story. In other news, top find of my many visits here was a HOT vintage lined long navy burberry trench for a steal-ish. Prices are reasonable considering the original price of items; definitely comprable to E. Village consignment shops. Pro tip: First go to the other Eva Gentry spot for heart palpitations (the fashion! the prices! the scoffing sales-folk!) and then head over to the consignment shop for a more down to Earth adventure in luxury. Good luck! read more

Eva has an extraordinary eye - you can trust that everything on the floor has been hand-picked for quality. The store offers designer & alt-designer clothes, shoes & bags for a fraction of what you would pay for them retail (Dries, Owens, Isabel Marant, Acne). For a taste of what they have on offer (as well as heads up on sales), follow them on Instagram. Some of the reviews here mention a snooty staff. I've never experienced that. I have found everyone to be courteous, friendly and respectful, engaged when I had questions, but otherwise leaving me to my own devices (which is the kind of service I prefer). I've also worked with Eva in her closet-cleaning, wardrobe upgrade service and for anyone who is thinking that they might need the same I say DO IT. She doesn't mess around - the process was fun, yes, but also efficient. We did the closet-cleaning, during which we chatted about what I liked, and where I was looking to stylistically go. Then she spent a day scouting stores & sending me pictures of things she found to see what I liked (and didn't like). After that, we shopped together for 3 hours - and boom, just like that, I have a tight, beautiful perfect-for-me selection and a bunch of styling ideas using things I already have. It seems like such a luxury to use a service like this but, honestly, I find that I am making better choices about what to put in my (wonderfully airy) closet (read: fewer expensively suspect decisions). If there is something I have a question about, I text a picture to Eva and she send me back her thoughts. I can't recommend Eva & the store highly enough. read more

Wow! Recently stopped by this store not having been there for 2 years. How it has changed. I asked one of the sales people where all the high end labels were. She told me that they are mostly showing brooklyn designers now. Oh, I guess that is why the shoes look like they are from K Mart and the clothes are dowdy and blah. Too bad. The store at one time had wonderful A List designers that flew off the hanger. Nothing good lasts forever. read more

I bought something here and the following day after a Google search, to my dismay, I discovered that I paid it exactly full price, as if it were a brand new item of clothing (I did a Google search in the store too, but only found the item the following day). When I bought it I suspected it was probably overpriced, but I thought it was a matter of $30 or so. I had no idea it was priced as if it were new. Whoever sets the prices should do better research. I can't return what I bought because of store policy, but I am very annoyed -- I feel cheated, and I probably won't be coming back. The store has a nice selection of high end and middling designer clothes, but my experience shows that one has to be very very careful while shopping here. I can't believe I paid full price for a used item. read more

This shop is very nicely laid-out. The clothes are usually arranged by color, which is nice. There are two dressing rooms and they are certainly large enough and have their own private mirrors (so you are not 'forced' to come out to use a public mirror). I've gotten some really nice things here. However my one point of contention is that they imply that all their clothing is high-end designer clothing. It is not. I'm not saying that's necessarily an issue...certainly not for me...but I think they should indicate that more clearly. In fact, it's sort of an odd combination...for a store to carry high-end designer right along with regular clothing that I'd describe as 'ethnic', for lack of a better description. It so happens that I do like a wide range of clothing...both designer looks and more simple (non-designer) looks. What I go by is the quality of fabric, the details, special stitching, etc. So I have bought some of the more 'ethnic' items here. But I would imagine for folks that only want high-end designer, they may be a bit perplexed at some of the selection here. By the way, this ethnic clothing I refer to looks (to my eye) like the type of clothing (it was mainly tops) that you might see folks wearing in parts of Northern Africa, or else in India or Bangladesh, etc. I bought a few such tops and they were cotton, some with a Nehru type color or 3/4 sleeves with embroidered pattern at the band, or else an easy-breezy loose gauzy cotton top. read more

-The selection is small but well-chosen--a very good source of Marni especially. -Unfortunately, I find it hard to find shoes in my (common) size 7. The shoe selection available was especially amazing for larger feet (39-41) when I visited the store... check it out either way, you might get lucky--they really have some fantastic stuff in stock. -The staff members were very friendly and nice to me when I visited. They seemed pretty helpful to the other customers in the store as well. read more

Carefully edited and amazing selection of consigned designer clothing. Always find great treasures here- nearly new or some even still with tags. Staff is super helpful and honest with styling advice. Love shopping here. The owner rocks too. read more

Consignment is a hot spot! It's been a neighborhood staple for sometime. It's laid out in a functional way and nicely curated. The best part is the owner Eva is a 10! and man she is easy on the eyes. You all rock. read more

I stopped in here and was barely greeted and no one offered to help me. I found a pair of jeans myself, tried them on, they didn't work, so I neatly folded them and replaced them on the shelf. As I left one of the salespeople called after me asking where the jeans were, she didn't see them in the dressing room. I told her I'd put them back. Was she accusing me of stealing when I was trying to be helpful to salespeople who'd made no effort to help me? Unfair. read more

If you want a pleasant, productive consignment experience -- DO NOT GO HERE. Upon my first call to schedule an appointment I was given a date 3 weeks from then. Arriving at my duly scheduled time, i was made to wait and then told I would get pricing in 2 weeks, almost 4 weeks went by and when I called - they said "we're really backed up" and that their system 'had a melt down'. Hmmm, didn't think you might inform your customers of this? So here I am - sunk almost eight weeks into this relationship and am no closer to having an item for sale. I only chose this location due to its proximity to my house. WILL NEVER, EVER sell through them again. read more

If you enjoy being treated like something stuck to the bottom of a fashion snob's shoe - despite having spent thousands of dollars in this store - then this is the place for you! On the positive side, the selection is great. But for the hassle of getting here, and dealing with the attitude, why not go to one of the dozens of other shops where the selection is great? read more

yeah, this place is pretty good. i like it. it's nice that they have things that i want to buy at prices that i actually can afford. my only question about this little mini chain of butter-y places? why are they so god damned snooty? read more

I like their shop for buying but not for selling. Their consignment is 40% for the seller. Most places are 50%. If you want a 50% split go to almost any shop in Manhattan. read more

Well I read the reviews somewhat disbelieving the comments. Then I called the store today (oct 31) to ask about consigning some items of clothing. The woman who answered the phone was extremly condensending! She told me many times that they are highly selective about what they take without out once asking me what I had in my wardrobe. Marni, lanvin, dolce , alexander wang, balenciaga and burberry as well as shoes and bags. I've been in the store a few times and its not all that. At the end of the conversation she told me that I could come in NOVEMBER 11 at 1.30pm. I'll update my review after my visit. read more

Cool store with some nice brand-name stuff but I found their whole arrangement by color really confusing. It would be better if they had shirts, dresses, coats, etc. instead of everything black, everything brown, everything pink. It looks nicer their way but makes shopping harder. read more

Quite the hidden gem tucked away on Atlantic Ave in Brooklyn. It took me forever to get there, but was worth every minute of the travel. The store houses the likes of Ann Demeulemeester, Dries Van Noten, Margiela, Helmut Lang, and Mister Marc Jacobs. The selection was incredible and I could have done some serious damage in there, but of course, as a college student, I resisted. I left with a beautiful Ann Demeulemeester silk dress and cool leather jacket from some downtown Los Angeles designer. Impressive selection, store was lovely, and the staff was typical NYC. For consignment pieces, Consignment by Eva Gentry boasts the best of the best. Worth the trip! read more

I recently became hooked to this place. I live so close and never really looked for clothing in Consignment but boy was I missing out. The curation is great and the quality is amazing for used clothing so much in there still has the original tags as well. This is becoming my go to place to shop and it only gets better and better!! Staff is amazing and friendly, I love a business run by all women!! read more

LOVE shopping EG Consignment! Best selection of top name designer goods in great condition.

Nice stuff, but way out of my price range.

This is my favorite store in the area! They have a great, well curated selection of unique pieces. The staff are friendly and helpful and it's usually not particularly crowded so you can peruse without having to elbow past anyone else. Love love love! read more

Really interesting designers and a large selection, lots of it unusual. I found a Rick Owens jacket for less than two hundred dollars, yay, plus there was Chloe, Demeulemeester, Balenciaga and Helmut Lang. Contrary to other reviewers I found the service helpful and friendly. read more
