I was in the area having lunch when I came across Junk in the Trunk, thrift store in Ogden. I…read morealways love walking into thrift stores and seeing what people have discarded, only to be rediscovered by someone else. As soon as you walk in you realize this isn't your average thrift store. The store is well laid out, organized and has that fantastic smell of used gear (but in a good way); it all brings back good memories of the past. They have a good assortment of records (yes vinyl is making a comeback). And they are dirt cheap; mostly costing less than a buck! I picked up two records and it cost me a toonie. How great is that!! The store shelves are organized in a great way, great friendly and inviting owners, wonderful jazz music was playing in the background, housewares, books, clothing, toys, electronics and even furniture were available to snap up. Be careful, walk into Junk in the Trunk and you'll be walking into a time-warp that you may not want to leave.

Zero for customer Service - Terrible!…read more I dropped off goods for consignment and received a call a few days later that they didn't take any of my goods and that I should come and pick them up over the next few days. I wasn't aware that I only had 5 days to come pick up my things and when I came today to grab them I was told very rudely that they had donated all of my goods to goodwill. I told them I was not aware that they would send my stuff away as I could have taken a few things back to sell personally. The manager was very rude to me and told me that it was my fault that I didn't come for my things. I asked if she could have changed the process to tell me what day I had to pick it up by which would have been clearer or perhaps send me an email with a deadline date for when I should pick up my things by. Nope, she said she didn't need to change how she notifies customers and that these things rarely happened. So I asked if there's anything they'd be willing to do for me such as offer me a 20% coupon to retain my business or anything to help build good will on this unfortunate circumstance. No again. She responded by telling me she didn't feel she had to do anything for me and that the onus was on me. So not only did I lose all if my goods, I got no reassurance that this would not happen again should I choose to consign with then again, and they weren't willing to do anything for me to retain my patronage. Not even an apology! I would have appreciated a little sympathy and some attempt to create good will when you throw out someone's things that were of value to them. How do I know if they hadn't stole some of my stuff and sold it after the day they decided to send my things to "charity"? Cuz they technically could now that they claimed all my stuff got donated. I'll be sure to tell every girl that I know of my experience and how I was treated. I was hurt, and humiliated by the way the Manager spoke to me in such a condescending and belittling manner and will never come back. At the end of the day it's was not about my goods. It was how I was treated and humiliated and told that they didn't feel they had to do anything for me, nor change the way they notify people of when they ship your goods to charity. If you want to consign, I'd suggest you shop around the block in Kensington and find a more friendly place to do business with.

They had a good selection of jewellery, some pieces were really nice. I found a simple salt water pearl necklace for $19. There were some pashmina scarves in a corner of the store, for $29. I found some cute purple shoes for $25, I thought that was a bit much since they were a bit roughed up. It was hard to see the shoes because they were under the full clothing racks. I looked though the clothing and found that most of it was aimed toward older women. There were some nice belts, Micheal Kors for $30. Overall the prices were not that cheap, though most of the clothing seemed to be name brands. They only accept consignment by appointment, starting on specific dates for seasonal wear. You get 40% of the sale price. I would probably return to check out ClothesHorse again, but I wouldn't hurry back due to the prices.

Got a Marant top, and a brand I'd never heard of, but they had a huge selection of stuff and I wish I'd had a little more time. Things were neatly organized by color and then by style- for example tops started sleeveless, graduating to short sleeves, then long sleeves. But all sizes mixed in- but that's part of the digging fun. Staff was so lovely and helpful, quick to offer a dressing room start seconds after I started carrying something. Also exciting that they have color coded tags. I felt like Charlie looking for that golden Wonka ticket, and was thrilled that my most expensive item was 50% off. Total score. Left there buzzing from the variety of prints, brands, and fabrics. If I were a local, this place would be in regular rotation.

There is an awesome process in place for those who want to submit clothing for consignment and an easy, transparent way for people to see whether their consigned items have been purchased. I have felt intimidated when dropping clothing off at other thrift stores, but Urban Thrift is definitely a welcoming space! I was told that the store holds a variety of special events and promotions, all of which sound very interesting although I have not yet been able to attend any. Still - lots of cool ideas that demonstrate out-of-the-box thinking. I'm looking forward to becoming a regular at this clothing store.
