    I am incredibly disappointed and frankly confused by my recent experience attempting to sell items here. I brought in two full 40-gallon totes of shoes--a substantial volume consisting primarily of running shoes and sneakers. Many of these pairs were brand new, and many others I had purchased from this very location and wore only once or twice, or not at all. As a frequent shopper, I know their standards, and I took the time to individually examine every pair to ensure they met the "good condition/light wear" expectation. I dropped off the totes and didn't even make it three miles down the road before I received a call saying the buy was complete. This was, at most, a 15-20 minute turnaround for two massive totes of shoes. Upon returning, they handed back both totes, stating they would not purchase a single pair, citing "condition" and "wear and tear." This is unacceptable and demonstrates a significant flaw in their evaluation process. My main concerns: * The incredibly short processing time strongly suggests a quick skim rather than a careful evaluation. There is no way two full 40-gallon totes could be properly reviewed in under 20 minutes. * They refused multiple brand-new pairs and at least 5-6 pairs that I purchased directly from Plato's Closet Chesapeake and never wore. If these shoes were in suitable condition for them to buy and sell initially, and their condition has not changed (or they are literally new), why are they now being rejected? This inconsistency suggests their current buying standards are arbitrary or applied unfairly. * Rejecting items that are in impeccable, like-new condition indicates that the staff may be overworked or unwilling to take the time required for a proper assessment. I am left with a car full of high-quality items and a deep sense of frustration. The process felt botched and a waste of my time. More importantly, because of this experience, I no longer trust their buying standards, and I won't be comfortable purchasing anything here again. If their criteria are so inconsistent when buying, I don't know what quality standard they truly uphold for selling. I cannot recommend this location. I would give less than one star if I could just by looking at the photos below it's clear to see that these shoes are lightly worn. They didn't accept a single pair, not one.!!!

    I recently stopped by Plato's Closet to take a look around. They have a good selection of vintage clothing available for just about every style and price point. The store is clean and the staff is friendly. If you've never been to Plato's Closet, check them out, you might find something extraordinary...

    Don't pay full retail! What I love about Plato's is its organization. They have guy stuff on the left and lady stuff on the right. Everything is organized by size of course, but they take the added step of categorizing them by short and long-sleeve shirts AND they arrange them by color. I've never seen any other place do the latter. Join their "rewards" program, save your points and earn %-off coupons to use for larger purchases. They buy gently used clothing as well, but don't expect to get a lot for your stuff. Worth a look.

    One specific worker is very rude. She does not know how to talk to customers, and she needs to fix her face when she's looking at people.

It is a nice place tucked away in the corner of a small strip shopping center. Each time I have gone in I have been greeted by staff. Including this Sunday. I tend to walk around shops such as this one in a clockwise manner. That way I help avoid missing any treasures. Plus my friend Loretta has one of the first spaces in that direction. I like to take my time and admire all of the nice items. This shop carries a lot of vintage and antique items. It brings back such sweet memories. I saw many things I wanted but I have to keep in mind the want VA needs. After I took my first gander I went back to Loretta's Niche and picked out a ceramic piece that has 5 tubes and the word F A I T H written on each. Perfect to propogate some clippings. I also found a nice low profile ring at another space, and picked a nice chilled soda out of the refrigerator with items for sale. They have fresh coffee in a little room, with books etc for sale, if anyone wants a nice hot cup and they have bagged snacks for sale. An added bonus. The young lady who was working has been very pleasant each time I have visited recently. She also carefully wrapped my ceramic piece up nicely. There is honestly something for everyone in VA VINTAGE.

    Style Encore Chesapeake hosted a Ladies Night Out event this evening and I'm so glad that I was…read moreable to attend! Refreshments, giveaways, and discounts made this event so much fun! Staff is always so friendly and attentive whether they're asking to take some empty hangers out of your hands, or asking if you'd like for them to place all of your terrific finds behind the cash wrap to free up your hands to continue shopping. I always enjoy how clean and well organized the store is kept. The aisles are spacious. The clothing racks are clearly marked by size and the different sections are arranged according to styles with attention to colors. This retail team truly takes time to keep their selections appealing to their customers. This evening's event featured 90% off clearance, 20% off storewide, and 10% off designer ($250 or less). I have to admit that the additional discounts are music to my ears...and my wallet, too! Thank you, Style Encore for such a nice shopping event!

    I walked into Style Encore and was not greeted at all. Instead, the staff just stared at me until I…read moresmiled and greeted them first. When I approached the counter to have my items scanned, the cashier looked at them and immediately said, "Those won't sell." When I politely asked why, she looked at another cashier to explain instead of giving me a direct answer herself. She then suggested that I take my items to Plato's Closet. The reason I came to Style Encore in the first place is because the website specifically says they accept high-ticket items, and my item is well over $150. If you're going to deny someone a service, you should at least be able to clearly explain why in a respectful and professional manner. The overall experience felt discouraging and unwelcoming from the moment I walked in. A simple greeting and better customer service would have made a huge difference.

This place features 72 artists who are mostly from the state of Virginia! There are hot sauces, felt kits, jewelry, accessories, candles, sprays, limited edition prints, and much more, where most items are handmade! The most wonderful thing is that there are over 35 different charities featured, where a certain percentage of your purchase goes to one - how neat is that?! The felt bouquet of flowers caught my eye from their display, so I knew I had to stop in! Ms. Jodie was present (@whataphotoholic), who was working on some calligraphy masterpieces; she was just super welcoming and friendly! Such a relaxed atmosphere where you can literally peruse at your leisure and have a pleasurable shopping experience! Don't forget to wander towards the back - you can see some of the featured artists' studios, where you can scope out works that are in progress and finished works on display. I was fortunate to stop by when one of the resident artists, Anjenette Renae, had her opening, 'Everyday Objects'! Really LOVED the 'Juicy Fruit' and the 'A Box of O's' paintings!
