This is a store that caters to student hipsters, with high prices. The clothes part has a good selection. You can get something unique and with maybe a hipster look(as opposed to business casual). They don’t prewash the clothes, so the store has a bad smell. I came here because someone said it was good for furniture. No, it’s not. Furniture section is a total wash. Furniture is good. Generally it looks interesting and is solid wood. It is so expensive, though. It is twice the price of an upscale antique mall. If you have money to burn, I guess good for you. I am all about antiques, bohemian look, and solid wood, but this place is so pricey not from here. Knick knacks a plenty, at about thrice the price of Goodwill but a better selection.

After an initial lukewarm experience a few months ago, I came back because I needed to pay my power bill. I sell vintage online and have previously resold professionally in NYC. I accepted most of the offers on my pieces and walked out with over $ 100 and a «new» 70s blouse. I spoke with the owner and had things clarified and I will definately be back with more vintage pieces! I am so glad there is a store in town that buys vintage on the spot and I love the new buy counter!

It had been several years since I checked out the record shop here so I thought I’d stop in for the latest vinyl and import CDs they had in stock. Uh oh! No mas! It’s now Flashbacks, a really cool used clothing store. But wait! They have more to offer than that! If you need help furnishing a new apartment, you’ll find everything you need here. Furniture, cool décor, bric a brac, books, lighting, shelving, etc. They also have really great jewelry for a nominal price. The vintage/collectable case up front is where I found myself ooing and ahhing though. There’s definitely something for everyone and the best part is like it’s predecessor, they purchase your gently used items. I’m sad about the record store no longer being here but there’s still some great tunes being played… albeit from a jukebox.

The vibe is very basement retro which is a perfect tone for finding your next unexpectedly trendy outfit. I bought a shirt for $ 7.95(«Air Jordans Fresh Since 1985»). Nobody else will have this shirt and I’ll be able to look sporty and cute. Tatum at the front desk was very pleasant and helpful. Highly recommended!

Very interesting store but very hot and smells like moth balls

Until the recent addition of furniture and mid century design items I routinely picked up most of my clothes from flashbacks. Recently I was able to furnish a small apartment with everything from flashbacks, except my towels and sheets and so on. They offered to deliver however they also gave me the option of a week to pick it up which I took advantage of and returned several times with my small car. I have been thrifting for 20 years and this is a very unusual shop in comparison. In my opinion is in a league of its own. I have been in several times since and new stuff seems to arrive constantly. I need a better$ job so I can buy this cool picture! I have relatives from Miami who have been back twice for Mid-century furniture they couldn’t live without. They tell me it was a steal. The people in Flashbacks are real and awesome!

They have a bunch of stuff here! Lots of different choices. The only thing is that I feel like i’ve been cheated entirely. Carefully inspect their shoes, because mine seemed perfectly fine but after just probably an hour of walking in them they fell apart. Thanks. They have a lot of really odd clothing? I just dont see how they can profit sometimes.
