We got here about 9:55 on Saturday morning and there was already a long line. They opened right at 10 and the line moved very quickly. A bit disconcerting, almost like a black Friday experience! Right when you walk in you see shoes and then a discounted clothing rack. There are so many racks of clothing! They also had a nice selection of books, artwork, and housewares. All of the employees (volunteers?) were very nice and welcoming and helpful. Truly one of the friendliest thrift stores I have been to. The only things I didn't like were how busy it was but it is awesome so I guess it's only fair that so many people love it. The other thing is that some items were ridiculously priced...I didn't see an overwhelming amount of this but enough that I thought to mention. Overall a fun place to shop! read more

This store has a lot of clothing for women, but look at the items carefully. Look for stains , sometimes hard to see, and rips. The clothes are not arranged by size, so plan to spend a lot of time searching. The prices here on everything has gone up a lot in the last year. I have seen several things that I could buy new for cheaper or the same price. Very sad that they are taking advantage of those of us who depend on thrift stores . Definitely not the best prices or organization of items. Other stores in the area are better. Cashiers are usually ok and the line moves quickly due to multiple cashiers available. read more

I never plan to donate here ever again and will give my donations to Goodwill or the Salvation Army instead because the person who helped me treated me like I was entitled for going to the front of the line by walking instead of waiting in my vehicle. Completely messed up system they have there and am thinking of boycotting the business. Very unhappy I gave up my donations and no thank you and no acknowledgment or receipt. I'm pretty upset but life goes on. read more

It was one of the most organized thrift stores I've ever been to! It is super crowded though. Theres such a long line to try on clothes that they give you one of those things that beep when it's your turn. They do have lots of good items and selection. Prices are super reasonable for the most part as well read more

The selection, the value, and the service. Staff were nice and friendly and they had a really nice selection of items.

one of the best thrift stores in the area! it does get busy so keep that in mind but the people are always so kind and help out whoever needed. sigh a great variety of things to look through at the best prices read more

Dorcas is amazing. Mostly all goes to charity. Some great buys on everything from shoes to appliances. It is a great value. read more

Dorcas is definitely the TJ Maxx of thrift stores. Good reasonable prices. I can usually find something. Good selection. I don't like standing in line to get in and there are too many people to shop most of the time. Difficult to maneuver the aisles with the large shopping carts. read more

The store was so crowded. It was really hard to shop. The clothes were a decent price but the hard goods were way overpriced This is supposed to be a thrift shop. These items are donated. Won't go back. read more

I thought this store was rather small caused it advertised as being largest in n.c. disappointed won't be back

Now open 11am-6pm Mon-Sat. Long line to enter store will move fast! There are happy volunteers and workers in the isles and at six cashier stations ready to help you. *** Dorcas has: --AMAZING Vintage-Jewelry, Houseware and Artificial Floral Departments! --An Electronics Department with all kinds of appliances, devices and home entertainment items - most tested by volunteers. --Lots of books, DVDs and CDs. --LARGE selections of: Adult and children's clothing, shoes, bags (purses, totes, suitcases), and accessories. Craft and sewing supplies, artwork and frames and toys. *** Low prices, good quality merchandise, helpful service, a clean store with bathrooms, up cycling, and helping the community make up for no dressing rooms and no-return policy. I love Dorcas and their mission of Helping Neighbors Thrive so much that I've worked there for free since June 2021. I hope that you stop by! read more

Dorcas is an awesome thrift shop that deserves to be visited several times a week! Always something new. Dorcas receives donations, too. Both donating and purchasing are quick, easy and organized! I enjoy shopping here because Dorcas gives back to the community in many ways. Dorcas helps people with utilities, food, prayer, and many other anonymous ways. Wonderful people & business! Everyone should support them by donating or buying in store! Highly recommended! read more

I love everything about Dorcas Thrift Shop. It's nice that they have an organized system for dropping off donations at the back of the store. The prices for shopping are reasonably priced compared to other thrift shops and I like that they support their local community. read more

I wasn't thrilled with the cranky older ladies years ago and vowed to never to back. I did, 10years later, and am still not impressed. They are misleading/cheating in their selling practices. I bought 3 puzzles at several dollars each. They were marked on the boxes, "complete" but they were not. I bought a box of ankle weights, taped closed with a sticker on the side of the box that said tested or complete (I tossed it, so I don't remember). Inside were literally a few little sand bags! That was another 5.00 down the drain. Then I bought a stack of plates taped together. I THOUGHT since they were taped together they'd be a matching set. They were not! I bought a battery operated toy that said it was tested. It does not work. The prices on some things are crazy high, like some of the shoes, their "collectibles" and even bins of legos can be found cheaper elsewhere. I totaled up my losses and they came to 25.00 lost in junk due to their practices. I called, so upset and was told all sales are final but I can come in and volunteer if I want to sort puzzles! WHAT kind of response was that? I am baffled by all the people saying this place is so great. read more

Excellent thrift store with a wide variety of clothes, accessories and household goods. Staff are friendly and helpful. Prices are reasonable. The money goes to help people in the community. read more

Always find a treasure here for man's room. The staff is always friendly, the place is organized and clean. The lady behind the treasures counter is so sweet and helpful which made my day! Home she had a great trip to St. Augustine! read more

The men's section is not well organized--for example, the shirts are not sized nor sorted into long versus short sleeved shirts. Makes it really hard to find what you are looking for... read more

We are avid thrift-ers and antique-ers, visiting from out of town. The thrifting in Raleigh overall is really not the best. Dorcas is probably the best place in town. It was very busy. Very picked over. Their prices tended to be high. We found one or two interesting things...but it was no bargain. I do check comps, and prices were equal to eBay prices. If you need to thrift, though, this is probably the best place in town. Otherwise, stick to the local antique stores. read more

Walked right in everything was priced people working the floor were not happy to work there the cashiers were great the employees behind the area were they have more expensive items treat you like a thief and are very rude need some training I stood there for 10 minutes and was not helped read more

Over priced donated merchandise. Long lines. Usually PICKED over. I don't see what people enjoy about here

so many choices! items in great condition. there's a half off sale in different depts/different days. large store! found so many bargains I really wanted... read more

I love Dorcas Ministries' charitable mission and donate here often. You can drive around back and, after the staff stationed there unloads your vehicle, you just drive off. Drive-by, convenient donation drop-off for a great cause! I have only shopped here once but found the large, well-organized store to be staffed by very friendly folks. The store was fairly crowded during my Tuesday lunch hour visit. I enjoyed the book section most of all (I am a huge book lover). I found a gem by a favorite author for 75 cents. I will visit again! read more

Cleanest, most well organized secondhand shop I've been to! Feels like I'm at a nice department store. Highly recommend!

Wow, they have remodeled since the last time I was here. I love the new checkout line and the crowd control staffing. Get here early. I found a bunch of cool stuff. read more

Service well presented price tagged value for money items displayed very well thanks to the associates

This thrift store is an absolute gem! I highly suggest paying a visit. It's a one-of-a-kind treasure trove, exquisitely curated and beautifully organized. read more

This used to be a good store to buy bags, books and the occasional clothing piece from older brands which used to be of better quality than newer brands. Recently, some of my purchases have been duds. A Kate Spade handbag for which I paid $14, had a large yellow stain in one of the compartments, which wasn't visible in the warehouse lighting of the store. A Corningware casserole container with lid, cost $10, had some cutlery scratch marks and small chips at the rim. A white shirt of thick cotton (Villager brand) had bad yellowing behind the collar - my fault as I didn't check it. I ended up re-donating these items back, except for the shirt which was not usable at all. They need better quality control and slightly smaller numbers in the pricing, otherwise it continues being a quality store! read more

Very impressive square footage. Or to put another way, Dorcas is huge! Great selection of stuff, with a special barred of section of really good stuff. Efficient checkout. Prices on par with other thirft stores. The only negative, the clothes are not sorted by size. read more

Thanks to André Anthony and Mark Helwig for a tour of @DorcasCary this morning. Much more than a thrift store, there is a food pantry and various client services for both @Morrisville_NC and @caryncgov residents. Come and finish your holiday shopping here read more

First time visiting this place. I wish we had one in CA as it's the best thrift store I've ever been to. Huge selection of clothing, furniture, knick knacks, misc items, and random house decor. It is very well organized, well lit, and the prices are very reasonable. (Hello....I got 6 barely worn brand-name golf shirts for $2.50 ea, among other bargains. I could've spent hours perusing the aisles but, I was mindful of my luggage restrictions. There are occasionally some gems hidden if you're willing to spend the time... But not always. There were clothes and shoes in shabby condition too. Knocked off 1 star because clothes are randomly hung on racks, not categorized by size and color. The employees were all nice. The lady at checkout was delightful and I was pleased with the service. read more

This is one of my favorite thrift shops in the area. The shop is always bustling with people. The racks and shelves are nicely organized with clothes by color and size, glasses, dining sets, crafts, books, and other neat treasures. They accept credit cards via square and everyone working there has been kind and friendly. They also have some furniture and if you can't find what you are looking for, try the Restore next door. Everything is in the same complex. read more

Very large, very organized, clean and well priced. Staff is friendly and quick. You will definitely find some thing if you visit.

Practicing social distancing means limited numbers are allowed to shop at a time. The wait is worth it! And the line moved fast for us on Black Friday afternoon. You are also asked to limit your shopping to one hour. Facemask are required and hand sanitizer is available at the entrance. Other Covid protocol includes arrows marking One Direction shopping. These arrows and directions were loosely followedyi-1 but face mask were worn by all shoppers except the very youngest. Dorcas Thrift Shop offers a wide variety of well organized quality used and some new items. You are greeted with a large display of holiday Decor from placemats, linens, flags, ornaments, candles, wreaths and more! The clothing is well organized by gender size, type and color. They offer a wide assortment of shoes and boots for children through adults. Many housewares, games, books, electronics, jewelry, sporting goods, and collectibles to choose from! And all for a good cause! Dorcus Ministries use store profits and donations to offer financial assistance for living expenses, a food pantry, training center, fee assistance for park and recreation programs, and the UNC Mobile Clinic. A team of over 600 volunteers make this work happen! You can feel great about shopping at this large, clean, well- stocked store. While much is offered there is no medical equipment, baby strollers, high chairs, swings, changing tables, play pens, booster seats or cribs here. No checks! Cash and credit only. read more

I recently lost 75lbs. Needless to say my old clothes fit like a tent. Thanks to dorcas I've been able to replace my wardrobe without going broke. They have extra sales every week so I can run through there like a kid out with his mom shopping for back to school outfits. Adult shirts and pants are $2 and a lot of them are in great condition, some still with original tags. read more
