I found a few fun work tops and dresses and an oversized soft blazer that will be great for fall. Also a few hair clips. All for around $100. I actually love that the employees leave me alone!

There was no line to check out and the employee at the register was perfectly pleasant. I actually may go back today to get a sweater I passed on that I'm still thinking about!

We…read moredidn't find the flowy piece she had envisioned, although I came across a brown pair of Seven for All Mankind corduroys for a jaw-droppingly affordable price. They fit perfectly, too. I also noticed some cool vintage Anna Sui t-shirts, boots and Anthropologie pieces. As you might infer from the brand names I have mentioned, Menagerie is a more high-end consignment shop. For example, the manikin in the window wore a loose brown shirt dress -- basically a potato sack that only a runway model could pull off. And it had been marked down from $300. I'm happy with my cords, though; I'm sure they will become a fall and winter wardrobe staple.

Shittiest managers, customer service, employees and people. They banned me 1 and a half ago and when the cops were outside and the manager was, she couldn't even give me a reason to why I was being banned. Cops said I was being aggressive....why would I be aggressive towards the people who decide the fate of how much I get when I try to sell my clothes? A bunch of stuck up college girls who will try to screw over any customer that doesn't put up with their disrespectful attitudes or looks at them a way they don't like. And learn to dress modestly while at your workplace ladies. Very rude and don't treat your customers like you want them to come back. Y'all don't rip off people though, Y'ALL ROB THEM. And very very very RACIST. read more
