I prefer to thrift for many reasons: the dopamine rush of sifting through different things (anticipating finding the perfect item), feeling all the different fabrics, and it's a little better for the environment, etc! Uptown Cheapskate is often more organized than you'd think. They also have sales all the time. Items are priced fairly, so it's even better on your wallet. Everyone is always very kind and informative. It's busy on the weekends but if you can sneak in during business hours, it's great. read more

I've been into this location a few times and have always had a good experience. Today I went in and was blown away by the helplessness of the staff. While on the floor I grabbed so many items that I was dropping them. Out of nowhere a sales associate offered to take them to the front and hold them for me. Then when I got to the register I was missing a tag. The young lady at the register searched and searched and eventually found it. Everything rang up perfectly and I left extremely happy. Thank you so much! read more

I bought Hugo Boss sunglasses that were tagged as including a box. The box was not given to me, and when I went back, I was told it had been thrown away. I was then told they couldn't provide another box because it "wasn't a high brand," which didn't make sense given the brand. What made this worse was that after leaving a review, management contacted me directly by text and responded in a rude and unprofessional manner instead of trying to resolve the issue. This was very uncomfortable and inappropriate. Customer service and management professionalism were disappointing. read more

Uptown Cheapskate - Round Rock - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

A TOTAL GRIFT! Here's how it works: You call and ask about the types of clothing they sell. You then bring say 40 pieces of designer or known brands. Then, they'll choose two to three items, pay about 20% of the "sell price." Then they'll ask if you'd like to leave the rest to be donated. And there it is - dishonest buying tactics designed to get you in but in no way buying your items honestly. They want it for FREE. If you want to donate unsold items, find a worthy place that will help the community and not try to bamboozle and profit dishonestly. MARK AND AVOID. read more

Love this place, found a lot of great things here for my teenager daughter. Found pieces still in very good shape!

They've bought a lot of my granddaughter's stuff--but too much from me. Lol! I get it. Of the things of mine they have bought, I got a fair deal. And I love that they take care to donate what they don't buy to the Salvation Army--my favorite place for all donations. It's a win-win. The people behind the counter are awesome too. This is just a great store!! read more

Ok, they are under new management so maybe they don't care what they sell or how the employees are representing the brand but gosh yall! This is as bad a Goodwill with all the stains and holes. At least the employees at Goodwill don't look like they are heading to the lake! I would hope the owner would like people who are somewhat reasonable to represent them. For the love GET OFF YOUR PHONE! They must have had a really good weekend because ethe racks are low on merchandise and they had hardly any shoes. Most Uptowns have a rack with name brand items, not this one! Just a sucky experience. I gave them 2 stars because we did get 2 items but I recommend you look good at what you are buying! read more

I thought it was a joke when I got my quote back from them. I got offered $73 for 2 giant bags of clothes worth almost $2000 with some being brand new. Crazy read more

I just recently heard of Uptown Cheapskate. They have a few scattered through the Austin area. I've been to 2 of them so far. They do have a large parking lot. They're in a large shopping center. As I walked in, I was greeted. I wanted to see if they would buy my clothes that I no longer wear. I had a large bag full of random items, dress pants, sweaters, shorts, dresses. A little bit of everything. I had to create an account on their iPad. Which took a few minutes. Not sure why they needed so much information about me. Seems a little excessive. Seriously, you need my drivers license number? For what? Moving forward, she said it would take about 45 minutes. I was okay with that. I was going to walk around the store and see what they had. And if I wanted to, I could go to the stores nearby, they will text or email you when they're done with their process. Places like this for me, is hit or miss. Unfortunately it was a miss for me. I didn't find anything that I wanted, but that doesn't mean the next time I come by will be the same. These places have new inventory coming in all the time. Guess that could be the fun of it, what treasures will I find? They called out my name and I went to the counter to see what they bought. Turns out the bag of clothes I brought in, they only bought 2 items. A Lilly Pulitzer dress and a Cashmere sweater. They offered me a store credit of (something) I can't remember the price. But the store credit option is more than the cash option. I took the cash option, just because, finding something I will like might take a while, and looking at their several stores just to use the credit. So cash it was. $13.50 is what i was offered for the 2 items. Obviously they need to make money, so they low ball you and sell for twice that. Or sell for more than what they give. I'm okay with the process. The clothes that they didn't buy, I was told they donate to a local place in Round Rock. Which I'm fine with. I needed space in my closet. It really wasn't about the money. I knew going into this I wasn't going to get close to what I paid. BUT...... when I walk around and randomly pull items off the rack and assess what you're selling, and see what you offered me, it's shady. My Lilly dress, worn once, in perfect condition. Not a stitch out of place. No makeup stains, No sweat or deodorant stains. Like com'on $13.50 for 2 excellent condition items? Just take a look of some of the pictures I took and tell me that this is fair compensation. read more

Can't think of anything that would keep me from going back. Do understand though that about 75% of the merch - at least at this location - is for girls or young women. Older guys like me can find some jeans and shirts but I suspect the styling of the women's clothes would't be popular with older women. And as I say the predominance of the clothing is women's. Friendly service? Check. People who seem like they actually like working there? Check. Wide variety, good condition, fair prices? Check all the way. One note; if you are selling and have more than two bags (all clothing must be bagged) and come later in the day, you may be asked to leave only two bags and be prepared to do something else or wait a while for your offer. The later in the day it gets, the more the clothing they're sorting tends to pile up. Other than that, go and save some bucks and get your new look. read more

Great place to try and sell your gently used clothing items, and buy clothing when they have good promos going on. I had better luck selling to them earlier this year versus now for some reason, not sure why. In any case, this time around I was able to score a great professional-looking dress for a little over seven dollars, thanks to the end of the year promo they had going on. Now being able to compare my buy/sell/trade thrift experience in America versus Italy, I am so much more appreciative of the deals I can score in stores like Uptown Cheapskate! read more

Uptown Cheapskate - Round Rock - Going from $25 to a little over $7 for a dress after discounts! - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

See all

Brought in two huge IKEA bags of nice clothes -- all clean, no stains, no holes, some never-worn shoes, and good brands for men, women, and teens. Was told it would take 30-35 minutes, but after waiting over that, they claimed they "already called my name," which they definitely did not. The worker was rude and had an attitude. After going through everything, they only picked 7 items and offered me $23. Meanwhile, the store was a mess, full of cheap fast fashion in way worse condition than what I brought. Then they asked if I wanted to "donate" the rest, which felt like a way for them to resell my stuff without paying. Whole experience felt like a scam. Never going back. read more

Found 3 great dresses and a pair of earrings! Smooth shopping experience. Very clean dressing rooms! Great prices!

This is a clothing consignment store with a vast selection of different fashions. It's only about 3000 ft.² or a third the size of the Ross next door. They also sell shoes and accessories. The majority of clothes found here are ladies fashions, but there is a section for men. Needless to say, the prices here are far higher than your average Goodwill, and even more than the Ross dress for less store next-door. The trade-off, however, is that the selection is better, and the quality of the goods is also better. read more

A gem of a store. It's tidy and organized, well-stocked with good finds and the dressing room is nice. Great service, fair prices, a real treat to shop there! read more

Very nice store. Very organized and very clean. I may be a little too vintage in age for this store but I'll definitely be recommending it to my younger friends! read more

Such a cute spot! I was in the area and decided to pop in-- what struck me initially was how organized everything was! The color coded racks made it fun and easy to shop. Great prices, recognizable brands and even shoes in my size (10+)! The staff was friendly and helpful and let me know that they accept clothes from customers that are washed, lightly worn, and (preferably) an on trend, recognizable brand. I learned that they give clothes away to those in need as well. Definitely a cool spot that I'll return to. read more

This was my first time visiting this location and I won't be back. This is based off of customer service alone! My daughter and I were looking around and selected an armful of items...the entire time we are shopping an associate seen us and even spoke to us. When we get ready to try the clothes on we are told their dressing room is closed and closes at 6:30. We had already been in the store over 30 minutes and no one advised us of this nor is there a sign stating this. While trying to debate between buying the items we picked out or not we overhear another customer questioning about why most of her clothes were not accepted and another associate tells her that they stopped accepting "Cheap" clothes....my daughter and myself looked at her with disbelief as well as the other customer just looked so offended by the statement. I get this is a secondhand store that sells gently used name brand clothes but to define someone's clothes as a "cheap brand" is insulting. read more

Always love shopping here, so well organized and clean. Everything is in great condition and the staff has always been helpful. I've sold items here as well and they will also donate what they don't buy from you which is really helpful. read more

I was killing time while I was waiting for my online Petsmart order thats a few stores down in the same plaza so thought I'd stop by and check the place out. I was actually impressed with their brands they carried in their store, especially with their bags and purses. Aside from MK, Coach, they also had Rebecca Minkoff, Marc Jacobs, and other great brands ...and some of them looked brand new too. Pricing was great as well. read more

Letting people return things without having an account. The clothes are to pushed together and on the floor. It's a thrift store for a reason shouldn't be more than actual price and should have better customer service. Selling earrings and half of them were missing. Same thing for a necklace it was broken as well. read more

I took three bags of clothes today. The items were good quality and season appropriate. They took five items and offered me $14.50! Not worth the trouble hauling everything there! I even called before I went and asked if they take seasonal things or anything and was told that they're looking for seasonal items like jackets, pants, long sleeved shirts and accessories like belts and shoes. I had several nice pee coats, sweaters, and shoes and they only took one puffer jacket, a cardigan and three belts. The puffer jacket was Anne Klein. I will not be selling or buying from this place again. read more

Be aware of selling your clothes here! I dropped bags of clothes here for resale while on my lunch break. Was told someone would text me later with an offer. They never texted me and when I called the next day they said they donated all my clothes and gave me store credit. Their system clearly has issues as when I called and told the gentleman my situation he thought I was someone else so I wasn't alone in their failed communication. I had to print my call log from cell phone to show no text was sent to my phone. I lost my clothes. Had to spend time proving myself and arguing after work. Not worth the time or drive. Beware of poor business practices here! read more

There is a large selection of clothes, as well as nice shoes, purses, and accessories. If you like lululemon at a discounted price, this is the place to go. read more

I don't know that I would call this cheapskate. Some things are less than retail prices and some things are not. Maybe this is more high end thrifting and I'm just not up to speed on this franchise. Either way, pricing way more than I would care to spend on the second hand items I was interested in. read more

I recently moved to the cedar park area and was a bit sad that we didn't have an uptown cheapskate around. Driving down to south Lamar for the nearest location wasn't always convenient. Having a location in round rock now is a game changer! Extremely friendly staff, pretty good selection and great location. I have no complains and found some awesome deals of a few items I was actually on the search for. Place was clean and organized as well! read more

There was lots and lots of options to pick from. The service was absolutely amazing, they helped me find everything i needed! Prices were fantastic and the materials were really great. I would definitely recommend this to a friend or anyone looking for cheap clothes that are good material. read more

I love Old Town cheapskate it is such a cute store with all kinds of clothes for everybody. When they first opened up, they had bathrooms available for their customers. They don't have that anymore, which is a bummer. They also used to have these little rolling carts for your clothes that you wanted to buy to pull around while you continue to Shop they don't have that anymore and it gets really heavy holding your clothes and sometimes you're trying to match things together so their new system of putting things behind the counter doesn't really work. I went there today actually and I spent a good amount of money I would have spent more if there was a bathroom and if there were baskets or rolling carts to hold my clothes. read more

Uptown Cheapskate - Round Rock - Used shoes for $74.99 LOL - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

Went to Uptown to see what they would offer for 2 pairs of shoes and purse. Waited, walked around looking to see what they had. Notice a pair of shoes that are the exact same ones I brought in priced at $17.99. I said ok. When they texted to let me know that they were done. I walked up and they offered me $23 for all 3 items, i looked at the girl and said really. How much for just the shoes. She said $13 Im like wow. Ok. This store is a rip off. Most of the clothes there belong at Goodwill. I will never go back. You would probably get more from Facebook market or Offer Up then here at this store. read more

Found a bag I wanted for a while but didn't want to spend the $ on a brand new one! So psyched!

This was, without a doubt, one of my favorite thrifting experiences. The store is organized by clothing type (pants, shorts, skirts, shirts, etc), by size and then also by color. Many, if not most items, have the original tag on them. The store and fitting rooms were clean. The clothes are good quality and most are reputable brands. read more

The merchandising of this place is awesome! Clean, color coordinated. Makes things very easy to find! The ladies working were so polite and welcoming! I felt young again with the throwback R&B hip/hop soul music they were playing. Felt nostalgic like when I used to go to the Buffalo Exchange in Berkeley and SF! Lots of nice merchandise with overall top quality! One of my best shopping experiences to date. read more

Uptown Cheapskate - Round Rock - Purse for $16 - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

Great quality, good service, short wait times, plenty of large and clean dressing rooms.

Excellent service and fast. I ended up spending my money after I sold my items. Very professional staff.

This place has all my favorite brands: free people, Anthropologie, madewell, and even better designer brands like Seven Jeans, true religion, and lucky brand. All for less than half price. Depending on the sticker/stamp color sometimes you can get these great deals for even lower prices. read more

I had an amazing experience shopping today! The staff were so supportive and helpful to me.

I hate to let the secret out but this place is amazing! Their offers for selling your clothes are very reasonable and they're always stocked with a great variety of items. I love this place!! read more

Very great shoes, clothes and etc. Definitely recommend bringing clothes to sell and shop around. Great experience and great people.

First time there and I had a very pleasant experience. The store was clean, well organized and lots of choices. I snagged an Anthropologie sweater that I'd never buy brand new ($$$). Excellent price and lots of designers to choose from. As someone who frequents thrift shops, I'd definitely recommend and will go back! read more
