Step right up, folks, and let me regale you with the comedic catastrophe that is Uptown Cheapskate starring none other than the ringleader herself, Manager Leslie. Move over, Bozo, because Leslie takes the cake for being more of a clown than a leader. Upon entering this three-ring circus, I was greeted by Leslie, the so-called manager. I must say, her customer service skills are so laughable; I thought I accidentally stumbled into a stand-up comedy show. Leslie's idea of customer interaction seemed to be a poorly rehearsed slapstick routine, complete with eye rolls and sighs that could rival a deflating balloon. But wait, there's more! The real sideshow was witnessing Leslie treat her employees like yesterday's garbage. I half expected a sad trombone to play every time she opened her mouth. The way she barked orders and rolled her eyes at the poor souls working under her made me wonder if I had mistakenly joined a sitcom about dysfunctional retail management. And let's not forget the grand finale - Leslie's leadership style, which is about as effective as juggling flaming bowling pins blindfolded. If being a clown were an Olympic sport, Leslie would be a gold medalist. Unfortunately, this is a clothing store, not the big top, and her antics are more likely to make customers run for the exits than stay for the show. Uptown Cheapskate you should be proud - you've truly outdone yourselves in hiring a manager whose leadership skills are a punchline waiting to happen. If you're in the market for a good laugh and a terrible shopping experience, Uptown Cheapskate led by the incomparable Leslie, is the place to be. Just don't forget your popcorn - you'll need it to stomach the comedy of errors. read more

Because the staff cared enough to help me I've been able to sell my items and start making a profit from consignment! read more

I love shopping here! Such a great selection and if you have the time to look, you can score some amazing deals. I'm in the entertainment industry and I love flashy clothes and I don't like to wear the same thing too often. So this store really affords me to have a huge wardrobe without going bankrupt. I just got a bag full of clothes for the price I pay for 1 or 2 dresses at the boutique. Ooh, and after I wear it a time or two, I can sell it back to the store for a store credit and shop some more. Now, I will say that they don't pay out what you'd expect, but that's how they are able to keep the prices so low. So do keep that in mind. read more

I LOVE this resale Boutique! So much better than the competitors in our area! The wonderful ladies who were working tonight were so sweet, helpful, and super knowledgeable. I was only in the store for 30 mins and each person working asked if I needed any help, answered any and all my questions, and helped my boyfriend when he needed a dressing room. Uptown also has an exceptional selection! Anywhere that has 30 to 40 pieces lululemon all between $14.99 to no more than $50.00 and my boyfriend can find his favorite BKE jeans FOR $21.99 is def. my go to clothing store! All around wonderful experience and a well deserved 5 star review! read more

The staff are fantastic. They are always very helpful, and have a great sense of humor. For example, tonight some and stranger swiped a favorite pick when I turned around to try on a jacket. When I told the lady that she had grabbed my favorite find of the day, she remarked "awe"- in a too bad so sad manner!!!! the staff and I had a quick chuckle, and went on to close me out. I appreciate there will always be great finds tomorrow- Thank you for the laughs, and the great outfits! read more

This is my favorite new go-to for clothing thrift shopping! The store is always very neatly organized with clothes by type and SIZE instead of just similar colors thrown together. Everything is marked very clearly. Always a great selection of cute stuff in very good condition. Prices are very reasonable and return policies are a nice bonus. Also a good place to sell your clothing for store credit or cash. Staff is always super nice and helpful. Always a fun adventure going here! read more

great experience! I came in to sell some items and got $31 store credit. I looked around to shop and ended up getting a puffer coat, beanie, jeans, cargo pants, and some leggings. after store credit I only paid $13 for all of that out of pocket. the items are more expensive than plato's but you also get more $ for selling than plato's. I also prefer the ambiance too, the store is organized, clean, and has great fitting rooms! read more

They don't make their 30-day exchange policy clear at all. When I tried to return my item (tags still attached), I was denied and told the policy was printed on the receipt -- but it was in tiny print on the front, almost unreadable. When I asked for a manager, the same young woman said she was the manager. She came across as rude, dismissive, and completely unwilling to help. Experiences like this really hurt customer trust. read more

Jillian and the others here at Uptown Cheapskate in Jacksonville, Florida are wonderful! They are helpful, happy and fun to listen to when your looking around at all of the great deals. Other retail stores should take a lot of lessons from these ladies. I have been telling everyone I know to go and check this place out for themselves. You will be happy when you do that's a promise. Thanks Kathy Strickland read more

I love this store I've been shopping here for years. Even with the pandamic going on the staff goes out of their way to make you feel safe and comfortable. Everyone is friendly, helpful and polite. You can always find something original here at an affordable price that you won't see everyone in. Take a chance and visit Uptown Cheapskate, you won't leave disappointed. They get a 5 out of 5 in my book read more

Uptown Cheapstakes is a perfect place to go to donate your gently used clothes and shop for an outfit or two! I brought in some items to donate and shopped around as I waited for them to look through my items. The decor is unique when you walk in and the staff is very welcoming. I found brand new name brand clothing for fair prices. Highly recommend checking it out! read more

Stumbled into this place tonight and it is my new consignment store in Mandarin. My other consignment stores closed a while ago so I'm stoked to finally have an AWESOME replacement. Store has a lot of selection, very clean and well organized. Prices are reasonable and lots of deals to be had. Staff friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back!! read more

The selection was really good! The young lady that was working the dressing room was so nice, I think her name was Kimmi. My pre teen daughter is between sizes and I was able to find jeans from her fave brands without breaking the bank and found me a few items! It is a bit tight moving down the aisles but overall a good experience. read more

There was a very large selection and tons of deals. The costumer service was great I needed help finding a shirt and one of the workers Adriana offered to help. I also got to meet all the staff working today Ericas and Jessica were great as well. Definitely will be coming back knowing I can find everything I need and I'm treated well. read more

I stopped in here to shop for some new shorts for summer time and I was really frustrated at first cause I couldn't find some that I liked. A girl with green hair helped me pick out some and I ended up buying three pairs that I loved. I'm so glad I found some and the girl was really kind. I will definitely shop here again! read more

Always a good selection of clothes, shoes, and accessories. I think the prices are reasonable ESPECIALLY if you get items that are marked down. They seem to take better quality items than competitors & also provide a decent amount of money for items you sell to them. This is my new go to spot for shopping !! read more

Helpful staff, very easy-going and good vibes. The selection was full of variety, I always find something I can rock out in. The shoes as well are surprisingly always choice and I can find cheap ones with good quality almost all the time. A plus rating forsure. Friendly shopping environment to say the least. read more
