To be honest, from looking at the outside, I did not expect to see much in this store. However, once inside, it's bigger than you think, and absolutely crammed full of merchandise. This place bills itself as a thrift store, but the prices are more in line with what you'd see in a consignment store. The aisles are very narrow in order to accommodate all the merchandise. They definitely have some collectible items, including some vintage stereo stuff. Inside you'll also find appliances, toys, furniture, tons of clothes, home decor, drum sets and electronics. They do offer sale prices on certain color tags which are likely the items that have been sitting around for a while. About half the space is given over to clothing and accessories, you'll also find three dressing rooms to try them on. This business doesn't just accept donations, they will purchase them as well. This thrift store carries a higher quality number of goods by far than your average Goodwill, but then again they are priced higher. Plenty of photos to peak your interest below. read more

See all

Thift Center is where it's AT!!! Don't sleep on this little shop. If you blink you'll miss it. I've found so many wonderful treasures here. I got an Instant Pot for $20! A nutribullet for $10. They have a wonderful collection of clothes for all sizes. I'm in a bigger body and sometimes finding clothes second hand is super hard, not here. They have a large and funky selection. If you are treasure hunting, this place is pure gold and a hidden gem. Thank me later. read more

Racks were full so it was hard to look thru everything, but they had a nice selections of nicely used toys.

I LOVE THRIFT CENTER! I refuse to frequent any other thrift store in town, Thrift Center is where it's at. I always find quality, stylish and relatively new clothes here with prices ranging from $2.99 - 7.99. The tops, sweaters, blouses, dresses I purchase from here average ~$4.99 or 5.99 each. I've found nice jeans and slacks/pants for under $7.99 each. And SO many choices of shoes in a wide variety of sizes! In addition to clothes they sell housewares, furniture, electronics and other various things. I've purchased a few very good condition Marvel comics in plastic wrapping before for $2.99! One of which was the very comic/issue that inspired the TV series "WandaVision". Have items you want to sell? Thrift Center will pay you cash for anything they are interested in. You can sell to them Monday thru Friday (no weekends) from 10am - 2pm, no appointment needed. Check out their Instagram to keep up to date with any designer items they receive from their buys @thriftcentershop !! I've found some top notch items from their Instagram in the past. Staff has always been kind and helpful when I've gone. Thrift Center gets 5 stars all around from me!! read more

This is a pretty cool thrift shop. They have lots of electronics and many other household items. They have some nice clothing and shoes. Didn't find anything for myself today but I'll be back soon. read more

Thrift Center - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Austin, Texas

Bought a super cute secretary desk from this store and everything about how they conducted their business online and over the phone was phenomenal. They originally posted this on Facebook marketplace, and responded in a timely manner. And when I paid for the desk over the phone, Dalia was amazing to work with. Definitely recommend! read more

I love supporting small business. If I'm able to purchase whatever I need from a mom and pop storefront, I'll always choose them over places like Target or Amazon. With that being said, I also understand that small business tend to price their items a little more expensive than larger stores since they aren't able to buy mass amounts of inventory. This thrift store is pretty small and packed with clothes everywhere. I found a few items that I would have purchased, but everything was priced 2-3x more than what I would pay for it at other thrift stores. Even the other thrift store down the street that is an individual storefront is significantly cheaper for the same quality items. I would love to come back and shop at this store, but the prices are just too high for me. read more

The place was very organized and clean but I didn't find many pieces that I thought might be worth reselling. There were few high-end brands. read more

I went here after seeing they posted 2 items on a resell app. I went in the next morning and they had one but not the other, considering the store had just opened I asked and the lady who was working and she said they must have sold it. Almost immediately after me came a gentleman looking for the same items. The lady told him I just bought the one and they couldn't find the other. The gentleman only spoke Spanish and since I'm fluent I understood the entire conversation. She went to ask another lady to see if the 2nd item had sold. She told her no and went to get it and the man purchased it. This really upset me considering I got there first and they didn't even ask me if I wanted it. I didn't make a big deal. The ladies were nice but the whole situation was upsetting. Most likely will not return due to this experience. read more

Thrift Center - My purchase - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Austin, Texas

Very Unprofessional!! I spoke with the owner and drove 25 miles to purchase the item and the owner didn't honor the price that she advertise and said that it was sold when she still had it for sale on Market place. Completely waisting my time read more

Thrift Center - Bike Rack! - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Austin, Texas

My favorite thrift store in Austin. My grandkids wanted to spend their birthday thrift shopping so we visited 7 different stores. We went to 6 in South Austin and 1 on Burnet before we realized we were worn out! We all bought stuff. The grands were focused on clothes and I wanted stuff for the house and there was a great selection of both. Like many thrift stores they has specials based on the color of the tags, and that made the money go sooo much further. Each kid spent $20-25 here, but they got so much for their money. They were thrilled! And this was their favorite stop of the day :-) read more

They changed their hours but haven't updated it online. And when I waited until 10 nobody showed up until 10:30 to open the store. I spent an hour waiting for this place to open, and when I got inside I was very underwhelmed. :( read more

Stopped in here waiting for my car to get washed across the street. I was very impressed. The clothes were nicely organized and sized, wide variety of clothes and well as house hold goods. Will definitely be back. read more

3/3/15@9:16 This morning we were hoping to do some thrift shopping but unfortunately they aren't opened yet. A gentleman came and asked if we were waiting as well, waited about 10 minutes & then left. Definitely not good for business. Having said that, th et have cute items for everyone at a fair price. read more

Thrift Center - 3 piece swimsuit set for $6.99 top, bottom & shorts - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Austin, Texas

I seriously needed a new oven, given that I'd decided to host a family reunion for Thanksgiving this year, but our current oven was old and decrepit and didn't even have a way to gauge the temperature. So, after a lot of surfing through Craigslist and a lot of driving all over the place trying to find something we could afford, I finally saw an ad on Craigslist for a gas range here at Thrift Center. I drove down to take a look at it, and was pleasantly surprised to find the price had gone down since the listing. Not only that, but they could deliver it and install it for a reasonable fee. Sold! I paid for the range, and sure enough, a couple of guys showed up the following Monday to install it. It only took about 20 minutes or so, and they hauled the old one away and saved me the trouble of figuring out what the hell to do with it. Now we have a nice new(ish) oven, a digital temperature gauge, and a way to cook a turkey for Thanksgiving. Thank you, Thrift Center! read more

I find this to be a great place to check out if you are looking for wall decor, outdoor decor, lighting or dressers. If you're in the neighborhood looking for those items, Thrift Center is certainly worth a look. Stuff here is cheap in the above mentioned categories. You'll find cool outdoor wrought iron pieces for $50 or less. A total steal. You'll also find large post for plants that you might pay $80 or $100 at Garden Ridge for $40. They have chandeliers that you'd pay $200 at Home Depot for about half that. They don't have all that much selection, but if you have a specific thing in mind and they happen to have it, you could save yourself a good deal of cash. read more

Super clean thrift store - lots of great items, well organized and fair prices. Very helpful staff -- well curated clothing selection. Everything is so well organized! read more

As a male thrift store shopper I'm usually drawn to used appliances and old things I can fix up or make art out of. The clothing selection for guys might not be a hipsters paradise, but it has plenty of old coats, suits, jeans, hats, and bags. Anyone interested in fitness will find plenty of used free weights. I dont know much about women's fashion, but I saw plenty of nice looking dresses and "blusas".. which is spanish for blouses... you know what I mean. Selling there is probably the easiest and most hassle free experience that I've ever had. If you've gone to buffalo, or plato's closet and you had tons of things rejected, there is a VERY good chance Thrift Center will take your goods. (They don't take everything, but it seems like they know their market). I also have to mention how pleased I was with the service - friendly and honest. I purchased a hand mixer for 6 bucks and I got it home and it didn't work. The receipt says all sales are final on appliances, but I went back anyway to see if I could exchange it for another and they were totally cool about it; adjusted the price and everything. Helpful tip: they have a cord at the counter so you can hook up the appliance before you buy it ( did not know that). This is not a high end thrift store, but it's really neat and tucked out of the way so please try to keep it under your hat and tell all your most trusted friends about it. read more

It's just what it is - a thrift center. It's a thrift shop in the most ordinary sense. The front room has a clothing, books, and toy section. Then there is a room off to the side with haphazardly piled appliances, wrought iron yard decorations, furniture, and even sometimes a 70s style organ. We were so tempted to buy the organ, but the volume didn't work too well - we checked in the following week, and it was gone! What's nice is that if you're in a snooping around mood, it's easy to do so here because it's not that large. (The prices are average as far as a thrift shop goes.) You can easily browse the entire shop in less than an hour. read more

I got two used front-load washers here at a great price ($280 for a Kenmore HE3T, and an LG for $399), along with delivery for only $25 for both, and a 90-day warranty. You can't do that well on Craigslist! The pump in the Kenmore broke a few weeks after I bought it, but I called and they came out THE SAME DAY to put in a new pump (under warranty, at no cost to me). There were a couple of minor hiccups -- the first time they accidentally delivered a washer and dryer, instead of the two washers I bought. And they either did or didn't have an LG in stock depending on who I talked with. And their math was a little off when we took one washer off the order and replaced it with a different one. (They quickly corrected it when I pointed out the problem.) But those were just minor issues. The washers were cheap, delivery was just $25 together, and they honored the warranty the same day that I called. Can't do better than that. read more

I used to like this place when I would go there to shop but I went there to drop off clothes and gave them my information for them to text me when it was ready. No one informed us of the 3 day policy they claim to have and no one gave me a ticket or slip. A couple weeks later I remembered no one contacted me about my clothes so I went in and they said they didn't have my stuff anymore and they considered it "donated". I did not want to donate what they were not going to take because I was going to take it to other places first. They asked for my number to search their phone records to see if they sent a message and nothing came up. Seems like a scam to me. They gave me $25 for a HUGE bag I brought in and I actually saw a few of my items on display. 2 items that I saw cost almost $25. Shop here if you want but DO NOT DROP YOUR ITEMS OFF HERE!!!!!!! It's almost like theft in my opinion. Horrible experience!!! read more

They do not update their for sale items on Craigslist frequently so if you see an item posted for sale you must call them first to make sure the item is still available. read more

Never would've thought this place would have such a cool selection of trinkets in their side part of the store. The clothing is lacking selection and they don't have much to offer -- but I feel their other part of the store makes up for it. I found a really adorable vintage looking chair for $30, and 2 stinkin' cute wall decor for $2.99 each. Never know what you're going to find at places like these. Always best to scope them out, because they do hold major treasures! Love moseying around here. read more

Do not buy your tablet cases brand new I, I went in and bought one for 1.99 and it was perfect with school starting soon I wanted one for my middle school kid too look like it was not new but still in great condition . great store great prices and they will only buy name brand clothes in great quality some still have price tags! read more

I'm a bargain hunter and this place is one of my little honey holes. Lots of scratched, dented and used items as well as new stuff too. When is the best time to purchase seasonal items? The OPPOSITE time of the year. So get over there and find your little treasure. I never walk away empty handed when I shop at Thrift Center because I always find something I didn't know I needed until I saw it there! read more

The customer service is superb. Mart assisted me with my questions on the phone and then in person with transporting a TV stand to my car. The staff here are polite and warm individuals. read more

I went in here hoping to sell a handful of costumes that I've been holding on to. They do have buying hours posted 10-2pm and I was stuck in South 1st traffic but lady was nice enough to still take a look at my stuff 10 minutes after 2pm. I walked around while I waited. They definitely utilize the space - it is a tight squeeze through the isles. Lots of clothes shoes and costumes. Everything seemed organized but overwhelming. I did not peruse the "home" area so no opinion there. For 4 costumes/ 2 dresses, 2 wigs, boots (all worn once) and misc items = $10. I declined. There was an almost identical flapper dress on the wall for sale for $20 & an entire rack of skimpy dresses.... I get they have to mark up but geez!! read more

Looks junky from the outside, but great inside! Huge women's clothing selection. Great prices. I got 2 like-new pair of jeans for $6 each. Most dresses and clothing items are around that price. Might take a little searching to find your gem. read more

Thrift Center - Entrance to the thrift shop. - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Austin, Texas

Great place to buy housewares! Amazing prices. Fun hunting! woot!

Decent prices great selection of shoes. Not really a place I would visit often. If you are looking for appliances this is a good place to look other than that not really the "gem" that some made it out to be. read more

I know all the best value thrift shops around town. This is definitely on the short list. Good values and above all fantastic customer service! Dalia was nice enough to hold items for me and reopened when I returned past closing time. She even text me to let me know they were closing. Now that is five star service! Great job. read more

This thrift store told me they did 8×s the mark up on the items they purchase but when I went back in after selling they had given me literally a few dollars for something they had marked at $65.00. I donate all the time to goodwill and salvation army and shopped here to support charity all the time but I was very dissapointed the manager actually lied to my face. BAD MANAGEMENT. Very sad to see. Ill continue to donate to charities that dont abuse the needy and impoverished and DONT lie to put back in their own pocket. read more

i bought a washer for $250 and it worked great......at first....the spin wash stopped working so i called them and they apologized like anyone would...they sent a mechanic out because it was within there "60 day warranty"...he came out and swapped the timer and awesome it worked again....for 2 weeks. i called Paul Gonzalez and he told me that they could not help me because the warranty was up....long story short they sold a busted washer and kept me happy for 60 days then told me they cant help me because the warranty was up. do not buy any appliances from them because they are broken and rigged to work for their warranty then they cut you out and tell you "sorry we cant help". SCAMMERS read more

We spent $700 on a used Samsung fridge from them that came with a 60 day warranty. After 90 days it stopped freezing so we had a Samsung repair person look at it. He deemed it un-repairable as it had a coolant leak and a bad compressor and had previously been worked on. Called Thrift Center and they had their repair guy come out and wanted to charge us $350 to refill it with coolant and would never call us back to give us any details on the repair. So now we are out $700 and have to buy a new fridge. Save your money and buy new... read more

This one was really good I bought several clothing pieces and jackets. Good selection of vintage clothes for all sizes not just the 1,3, and 5's either. There was accessories and lots of good second hand items at fairly low prices. I would visit this one again read more

I bought a refrigerator/freezer yesterday. It's been plugged in for over 24 hours. It is not getting cold in the freezer or fridge. This is unacceptable! The service man promised me that it worked. They're sending someone by to fix it. We'll see how it turns out. Will re post if anything changes. read more

This place is a fraud! I hope no one gives them their business! They make their money off of stealing from people! When you bring them your stuff (hoping they'll pay you for it) they actually try to get you away while they go through it all so they can take extra things! I brought them a ton of my stuff and they went through it item by item, choosing the ones they wanted to buy from me (I watched them closely), offered me a crappy amount, then when I said "no thanks" they only gave me half my stuff back! I went inside and found a couple things of mine they didn't give me back but the rest I guess they took in the back. Of course they lied about it when I confronted them. Not to mention they were mean, saying "it's ok we have other customers. Go away." Then the woman at the register refused to give me the owner's information. It's a scam, they do this all the time. I should have called the cops but didn't think they would be interested. There are plenty other Thrift Shops, but these people are theives. read more
