About a year ago I went into Plato's Closet and tried selling name brand clothes (Roxy, Bilabong, Hollister) which were in excellent condition but they accepted nothing. I asked for the reason and was told "Oh, we only want the very latest and greatest fashions that are at the mall and within the last 6 months". Okay, I don't see very many people buying the "latest fashions at the mall" at FULL-PRICE then turning around and selling it at a VERY steep discount to Plato's Closet. Why would anyone in their right mind do that when so many places have lax return policies and someone could get their FULL money back?? The only reason I can come up with is that unless people are STEALING the "latest fashions at the mall" so that they can turn any sort of profit from Plato's Closet I really don't see how this place stays in business. Plato's Closet probably does not even realize how much of their product could be stolen merchandise LMAO. All I can say is that I'll never do business again with PC.

Ross, Tj max, Marshall’s. There’s many other stores that sell name brand clothes for cheaper. Plato’s closet doesn’t say only name brand clothes and lightly used clothes are still used. If they are expecting people to bring in new clothes what a waste look at poshmark or thredUP. Those are places for new/high end clothes. Plato’s closet is just one step up from goodwill. Even once upon a child takes used clothes.

They have to be picky, because what they buy goes into their store. The whole point of buying clothes from people is so they can resale it in their store for consumers to purchase. If something is out of style, faded, damaged or ruined nobody is going to buy it, then it's just going to sit there. The whole point is so they can make profit.

Like it wasn’t even the cute things from those stores. But like the velour from those stores that litter every Salvation Army 😂 like If I wanted Kmart and Walmart clothes I could have just gone to Kmart and Walmart, not Plato’s Closet.

It’s so funny because when I went to the Plato’s Closet in my state I tried selling a Red Satin Bralette style type of crop top that was in perfectly new condition. I had bought it the month prior, never wore it, never took the tags off. I just changed my mind on the item and F21 wouldn’t take it back. Anyways, the girl at Plato’s tried to tell me they couldn’t take it because the item is more than a year old. I told her I purchased it the month before that I could show her my online order receipt. So then she said “it’s probably because it was worn and showed it on the clothing item” so I explained that I never wore it and it still has the tags so that’s impossible. So then she was like “oh then it’s cause we’re not really accepting clothing pieces of that style because it doesn’t really fit for what Plato’s Closet represents” (but when I was waiting for them to go through my bag I saw almost the exact top except black leather with a zipper sitting on a rack) lolllllll. The girl just tried to make up every excuse, mind you, she was the one who was going through my bag and she didn’t even have a solid answer. It was just annoying and shows how ridiculous they are. Also they offered me $7 for a pair of never worn Fashion Nova skinny jeans. Smfhhhhh lmfao

I work at Plato's. Let me explain a few more things: For my place, we check the dates on the tags to see if it is within the last two years--if it has a date. If it is, then we can take it. Logos are also an indication of time. We don't take brands that are too mature for us, like NY&company, and we don't take expensive brands like Gucci. We stick with teens and twenties styles that are easier to verify. As for stains and stuff, sure mistakes in the sorting process happens, but when dozens of people try on clothes, they could accidently tear or stain it. Some clothes may seem like they would do great for us, but we try to keep styles as current as possible by studying what gets sold more and what doesnt, and what the common trend is for the clearance section. It also may look like that lady only took 10% of the clothes, that doesn't mean it's always the case. Sometimes we take everything, or a big majority, and we pay $150 or so for their clothes. This all may seem misleading, but we are trying our best. If you read this far congrats. You deserve a cookie. I know this vid is old, but if you have any questions, you know what to do.

Yeah. We take in those. But its hard to say unless we look at them whether or not we can take it. But Pink by vs is big, and we can pretty much take any north face.

Depending on the overall demand of that style or brand, we may purchase an item that is a bit worn and just price it differently. But this varies between store location and season. Most of the time however, the faded items or those with holes, do not end up selling and can be a risky chance.

We totally agree that garage sales can be awesome! We don't compare our prices to garage sales though, as we have a lot of expenses that garage sales don't have. The great thing about shopping at Plato's is that we have done all of the digging through things for you, so that you get to shop from the best stuff!

its not just about stains or spots. they only take items that have been in the malls for less than 2 yrs... your lables in your clothes change, this in it self helps them in their buying process . now they may miss a hole here or there. sometimes it happens being after on the floor but when you touch a couple a hundred items you may miss something occasionally now i cant speak for every platos closet but ours here are great . back to the label comment for instant american eagle was large and block then round and cursive now anything from 2013 till now is a medium size type writer print. some labes will even have a date somewhere if your unsure.. just a little insight

My thoughts exactly. Common sense to retail workers: do not put tags on the fabric itself, but on the tag attached to the clothes. Also, I don't understand that whole "faded" nonsense either. I took in some really cute stuff in, made sure it looked like new and was in style. I walked out with my bag of stuff and $0.

Brought 8 bags and returned with 3 bags and a $150 check. Seems like they don't take Hollister and Abercrombie anymore as that is all that I was left with. Most of my Express and Guess stuff they took and I was expecting to get more because the stuff I brought from Express especially was in great condition and I paid a lot of money for it. All in all though I did get some extra cash and was able to clear some closet space in the process so you can't really go wrong.

Logan Cooks I'm not sure if they still do things the same way, but last Iknew they would take 70% off the original retail price and then give you 20% of that. For a pair of American Eagle jeans that retails for 44.95, they will give you $6.29. For a pair of Hollister jeans that retails for 49.95 they will give you $6.99. For a pair of Abercrombie jeans that retail for $78.00 they will give you $10.92. These prices are only if they're in like new condition - if they show any wear at all, I believe they do give you less or they don't take them at all.

That particular dress was an example of an item that is older than what we normally buy. We adore vintage clothing too, but our particular business model is based on items that were sold new within the last year and a half, not on vintage clothing. There are some great vintage used clothing stores out there though!
