Clothes Mentor

I have mixed feelings about this store, but I am still giving a solid 4-​star review.
The location is great for the west-​siders, easy to get to and easy parking. Plus its next to two sandwich shops so you can always have a snack while you wait for your buy to be processed (wait times can be long). Goodwill also happens to be on the way back to 394, so you can dump your rejects from your buy and not haul it back home.
I have mixed feelings because I feel like I can never find anything I want to buy, but I sell stuff all the time. Every time I have gone in I either don’t like anything or won’t pay the price for used clothing/​accessories. However, there are a ton of options and for anyone looking to save money, this is the place to do it. They have everything, even extended sizes, and a fitting room so there is no risk of buying something you are not sure will fit or look good. Be prepared to spend some time hunting through all the racks, its not an in-​and-​out kinda place.
They staff is always kind and informative about the buy process. They have a nice system for checking in and selling your items. Sometimes, I wonder why they don’t take some of my items when you see xyz ugly purse on the shelf and you have abc cute purse in your rejected buy. But, just like anything else, taste is subjective and it depends on your buyer. I have also had two exact same items, same quality, different color and they take one but not the other. You don’t get much for your items, but its better than nothing, especially when it is just taking up real estate in your closet. Also, this is not a consignment shop, you get cash on the spot. That is a huge plus for me.

I really like this location. They often have a really broad selection of great quality and brands. Someone always greets you as you walk into the door and helps you get a room started as soon as they notice clothes piling up in your arms. Some items seem a bit expensive but most items are really reasonably priced. The nice part about this consignment shop is you get good quality for what you pay and you can stay within a budget. The clothes for the most part are in fantastic condition and people at the office often ask where I get my cute clothes. Also, ask for the stamp card to get more savings when you check out.

This place is great to find clothes at decent prices. You will have to hunt through many items though to find the gems. It is a hit or miss kind of place though I have gone twice and not found anything but my sister did find some things.
They have some clothes too that are brand new. The tags are still on the clothing. I am shocked at what people will buy not wear and then get rid of.
The staff there were very helpful and courteous too.

Not a bad store for purchasing used clothes. The staff is friendly and the store is clean. HOWEVER, it is probably not worth your time to take clothes there to sell. I went through my clothes, checked for stains, and even ironed them prior to bringing them into the clothes mentor. Out of about 25 items, they were willing to purchase 5, including a $ 110 sweater (bought last year and worn less than a dozen times) for $ 4!!! Needless to say, I left with it and will sell it on ebay.
Most people would gain more monetary benefit from donating items and claiming them on their tax returns than bothering to bring them into the clothes mentor.

Proceed with caution!!! This place is dangerous!
Tons of great selections on great brands like bananna republic, bebe, limited, express, true religion, etc. I have bought so many great professional cloths for work for I swear about a quarter of the price…
I have shopped here and sold tons of great cloths at every size from a 2 – 28. This store is great for everyone.
If you haven’t been here GO!
