I've been going to the surplus store since I was a young teenager. Being into paintball and…read moreairsoft, the place stocked lots of gear for those hobbies. I remember buying an HFC Darkhawk GBB pistol back when Army Navy had airsoft guns. I used that airsoft gun, like played every weekend and just ran it hard. I wore the slide out and casually told Dan about it, to which he said, "I can try to polish the slide burrs out and fix it." The Darkhawk worked for a good while longer, and he didn't charge much. Dan and Marcy were always a joy to talk to, they were funny and always kept it real. The selection of gear was awesome, you could find WWII to modern era stuff. I bought many nifty army surplus stuffs like a leather flap 1911 holster, Bianchi M12 flap holster, American Optic aviator sunglasses and lots of paracord in various colors. Dan helped inspire me to join the military since he is a USAF veteran. I got to experience many adventures (good, bad and indifferent) because of this, and it was worth it all. I came by the store today after work and noticed it was closed, I'll miss it lots. But I'll always remember all the great discussions and nifty gear I got here!

This is my second review for this Hope of the Valley…read more Overall, I really do like this place. Lots of neat eclectic finds! Pricing can still be excessive for certain items. Every time I go through the shoe section I shake my head and roll my eyes. I literally found a pair of old, peeling, wrinkled boots that should almost be thrown away, yet they priced them at $16.99!! So, you have to take the bad with the good... It's a non-profit store with things that are donated for free.. It's upsetting to see price gouging...so whoever's in charge of pricing needs to remember that.

Normally I'm a Hope of the Valley lover- I shop there, I donate there, I recommend others- I love…read morethis store. But recently, the pricing has gotten out of hand. Over the past few months, items have gone from the $3-5 range to $10 and above. I've seen multiple used skirts going for $20 each! It would truly be cheaper to just go to Walmart or Target and get new clothes than to shop here!!! That says a lot. I've had literal conversations with shoppers in store as we pick up Shein items and stained shirts going for multiple times their worth wondering what has happened. It's honestly discouraging to see the items I'm donating hoping it means someone has a fair shot at affordable clothing going for prices higher than new items. It's a shame since this store is really so neat, the staff are kind and the service is great, but these prices are honestly a scam. If you're looking for an affordable thrift to shop at or donate too, I'd unfortunately have to say it'd be better to go elsewhere.

Hop in. Buckle up…read more Hold on to your hat. Your Vintage Chariot awaits... While on the hunt for Christmas gifts at the Westfield Topanga Mall, something caught my eye. Was it the Pristine, Classic, Topless Mercedes in the middle of the store? No, but man is she a beauty. Was it the glossy red, Chesterfield leather sofa that was calling my name to come take a load off and drown my shopping woes? No, but I cannot confirm or deny that it definitely didn't cross my mind. Was it the wall of perfectly displayed hats that had me scratching my own head thinking to myself... "Do I really need another hat?" The short answer... Yes. Ultimately, It was the hats that pulled me in, but it was the conversation with the owner that made me stay. While browsing the store, I was extremely impressed by all of the cool product, unique designs & quality of material used in all of the apparel. The store felt refreshing. It was something new and something that the mall definitely needs. While looking around, the store owner Ryan offered his assistance and shared a little about the items I was looking at. As I tried on various items of clothing, the owner and I had a really nice, genuine conversation about how he got started. I was impressed by his story, and I could really see the drive, the passion and I could begin to understand his vision of what Vintage Chariots is really all about. Bottom line is... Good people with genuine passion who sell quality product, deserve to be recognized. That day, not only did I buy myself a new hat which originally lured me in, but I also picked up a new sweatshirt that I can't wait to wear. I am definitely a fan of the brand and I will absolutely be back to support this business... And I encourage you to do the same!! Thank you Ryan for taking the time to share your story with me, I am rooting for your success. Welcome Vintage Chariots to the neighborhood.

They have a great sales, parts and service team and popping into the shop always puts a smile on my face. The sales floor has amazing deals on gorgeous, new Suzukis, Yamahas and Triumphs. I always have to keep my wallet in check when I walk through to get to the parts department. The parts department has most of what I need when I'm wrenching away on my bikes or when I have to replace riding gear. Great selection at great prices. Gary is my man! He'll take care of you and help you find what you need. The service department is honest and fair priced! This is important these days. I've been to many shops that will overcharge you or steer you wrong. Go see Chris. He'll get your bike diagnosed and running the way it should, without you spending more than you need to. Thanks Simi Valley Cycles!

It seems like they were fuel starved and I suspected the mechanic had somehow shut off fuel supply during services and didn't restart. I called Chris at Simi service,, he took the time to help. looked up error codes, then spoke to mechanic. Turns out I was using wrong key fob on ea ski, had no idea they the wrong fob would crank the ski, but not start. I appreciate the time this shop gave me, they could have easily just said "bring them in." but Chris was patient and made a real effort to help in a situation where I was clearly frustrated.
