Thrift Stores

So, this place is «different». Let me put it two you this way. I bought two «mint» condition 70’s lounge chairs here for $ 90.00. Talked them down from $ 110.00. Yet, even a steal at that price. This place is loaded, that is not an exaggeration, loaded with finds. It makes you realize how Austin is starving for a true thrift store.
Oh, the clincher… I wasn’t able to pick the chairs up until Sunday because I was traveling through. They are closed on Sunday. Yet, they met me up there so I could load them up on my way out of town. Go here. make this a must stop on your way through Lower Greenville.

This is a great thrift store, I’ve been here several times but have only purchased something once. The shop owners prices are insanely high and she does zero negotiation. I’ve made several offers on different items and walk out of here empty handed every time. I’ve thrifted since I could walk so I know when prices are unreasonable. She once tried to charge me $ 10 for a picture where the glass was broken from top to bottom. she acted offended when I pointed out it’s broken and made a lower offer, she got very aggitated and said no she paid too much for it. I told her I could go to Ross and buy a $ 10 brand new unbroken picture. She still refused. I only go in here once a quarter and that’s only because my pharmacy, CVS, is across the street. That said I’d wager only 1 in 10 pieces are fairly priced. It is super crowded but I was in there today and it looked like they had at least attempted to straighten up. Once again, made an offer and she said the same thing she says every time, «no, I paid too much for this». The store is overflowing because she can’t move anything due to her high prices. There’s furniture that’s been there since I moved to Dallas 5 years ago. I guess if you’re already in the area it’s worth popping in, You may not mind a high price if you fall in love with an item. They don’t have AC so if it’s summer just be ready for the stagnant heat. And they close when it’s too hot or too rainy due to the poor shape of the building. If the shop owner could bend the slightest I would give this place 5 stars, she’s just a stubborn mule. In my experience She is the only shop owner that doesn’t negotiate at all.

This is what a thrift furniture is supposed to be like! Maybe a little intimidating from the outside, this store is packed full of interesting pieces, that with a little love would be great pieces. Their prices are very reasonable $ 20-​$ 200 but plenty above and below too. They are willing to negotiate on prices, especially if you are buying a few things so give it a shot!
They had tons of tables, picture frames, chairs, desks – mostly wooden furniture. They did not have many upholstered pieces, if any at all. They had a small selection of costume jewelry and some old Life Magazine books that would be great on a coffee table.
The downsides of this place are also the upside. It is packed full, probably too full and digging is necessary. But I would rather too many pieces than a place with 4 or 5 items. It is also pretty dusty, a dose of some allergy meds before hand might do you well. Parking is just street parking but we found some along the side of the store.
The woman and man working there were very nice. We bought a side table for $ 35 and three solid wood bowls for $ 10 total. Wish we had found this place sooner.

This store has tons of furniture, a few boxes of albums and a handful of household items that you might find at an estate or garage sale. The inventory could be much better organized so that it’s easier for the customer to navigate. It feels very haphazard and awkward. Items could be grouped better but instead there may be a night stand next to a card table. Also, it’s a shame that they leave items stacked up making it hard to even see everything that’s available. This seems to contribute to extra scratches and dents which is a shame.

A DIYer’s dream come true! Coming here makes me feel like I can actually make my Pinterest pins a reality. Be advised that this place focuses only on furniture, so it’s not your typical thrift store. Come here with patience and a positive attitude because you will be digging for treasures – it’s a thrift store, people. I’ve found some great pieces (dresser, nightstand, desk) that I later repurposed and/​or refinished. The layout is very much maze-​like, and it gets busy on the weekend. Leaving the kiddos at home is your best bet to prevent accidents or Amber alerts. Say hi to the owner while you’re there! She’s super sweet and attentive, and you’ll find her walking around bundled up since there’s no HVAC system. She’s up for negotiating! Happy treasure hunting!

A thrift store isn’t a thrift store unless you can negotiate. We found two quality storage wood benches and will probably come back for more.

You have to check back often because they roll in new pieces of vintage or gently used furniture every week. I was able to find a cute book case with scalloped edges to store my baking stuff. The only trouble is you may need a truck to pick up your furniture if you’re purchasing something big. There are always good deals daily and you can follow them on their facebook page.

Great finds!
Great staff!
Decent prices
Negotiating is welcomed
Hours vary
The store is on Facebook so her best items sell quickly when they are posted. Friend them! Happy hunting!

I was thoroughly disappointed in the selection in this tiny little gem on the corner of Peak and Ross. We had driven past here so many times and wanted to look for a dining room table. Certainly I am aware that thrift stores get what they get when they get it, but there was an abundance of dresser drawers and really not much else there that day. Well, besides a rad selection of VHS tapes. Make sure you bundle up when you visit. It was about 60 degrees and sunny out that day but it felt like 25 degrees inside!
We will probably pop back in from time to time when we find ourselves in need of some cool furniture. They did have some fantastic pieces in there, so it’s worth checking it out if you’re in the market.

This place looks like it would have amazing finds so we checked it out while scouring every other Dallas thrift and antique store. The moment you walk in is overwhelming — there is SO much stuff! But the more you dig, the more worn out 1980 – 1990 furniture you find. Which kind of makes you stop and go, hm…
I wish that we could have found that diamond in the rough… and with regular visits, I’m sure you’d run across an incredible gem. But that Saturday was not it for us. Maybe multiple trips, maybe a not so warm day, or maybe just not our style? Either way, I’d encourage you to take the trip for yourself and see what you can find. The greatest thing about the thrift trend is that nothing is off limits and personal style is always popular!

This is a fantastic place to find gently to not-​so-​gently used furniture that just needs a second chance. I still haven’t been able to figure out the hours, so don’t get frustrated if you show up during what should be business hours and the doors are locked tight. Just keep trying and watch for the front doors to be open and display furniture to be moved out front (I know how sketchy that sounds, it really isn’t — promise). Btw, I’m pretty sure the name of this business is Ross at Peak Thrift Store, but don’t hold me to it.
The pricing is kinda wonky and tends to not make sense if you’re comparing like items but there are some shocking deals to be found if you’re willing to investigate the dark corners of the store. You can sometimes bargain your way down from an asking price, especially if you’re carrying cash. This is my favorite aspect of bargain hunting and I feel like I’ve won the main prize even when I only talk them down a few dollars.
The staff is always helpful and willing to pull whatever item you’ve just purchased out of the furniture pile and load in your vehicle. They sometimes don’t know much about the history or quality of their items but I’ve never been bothered by that. I’m not an antique dealer, I just want quality furniture on the cheap and I know crap when I see it.
Bottom line, this is a solid way to outfit your home space without spending a fortune.

Always drove by this place, but never got out of work early enough to make it there. They close at 6pm. I finally had a day off and stopped by last week. There is a nice assortment of furniture. The people were very friendly even though I came in pretty close to closing time. The furniture is arranged well. Some of it may be a little bit beat up, but the prices reflect that. Just TLC and elbow grease can make some of those pieces great additions to any home!

This is a tiny little corner you pass by all the time. I saw some rattan stuff worthy of my back yard maybe and decided to finally pull over. It’s full of the usual stuff but need some love for sure. You can probably find a bargain in here and clean it up for sure. It’s kinda tight and dark, but worth a stop if your looking for something obscure.
