been selling to them for years sometimes they take nothing and others they take almost everything but everytime it seems like the more they take the less they offer me. took a big red tote full of toddler and kid clothes boys and girls and about 6 pairs of shoes some name brand some not and they took more than half the tote and only offered me 30 bucks. Like I know you guys make more than that offer your loyal customers more money. after all we are the ones who keep you in business. 

Business response:

We love our customers and we’re so sorry you feel that way. The average price of an item in our store is $4.50 and we pay out 25-50% (depending on brand and size) 25% of $4.50 is $1.13 so we on average pay a bit over a dollar per item. If you recall, we have our dollar day sale all the time which means we’re sometimes even selling our items less than we bought it for. Hope that helps!

My husband and I visited this location twice while we visited Colorado Springs. Both times we had great experiences with the associates. Plus it helped that the store was so clean and organized. There was so many great deals and pricing, we had to come back a second time. Fast forward 8 weeks later, we return home to KS. I messaged this facebook group asking if they had more season appropriate clothes for my 3 girls. They messaged back promptly, shopped virtually, sending pics and asking questions to help me find what I need... read more
