Thrift stores offer great deals on clothing, especially if you are looking for casual clothing for women or children. What if you are looking for nicer clothing, that can be worn to work, school, or to a party? Try shopping at a resale store. Back on the Racks has upscale resale clothing that might be just what you are looking for.
Back on the Racks is located in Atascadero, California. You can also find them on facebook, or follow them on Twitter. They sell gently used clothing for women (including maternity clothing). They also sell clothing for babies and kids. You can find jewelry, shoes, purses, and accessories, and many of the items that babies need (like playpens and cribs). You will find plenty of items for 70% off of the original retail price.
Unlike the thrift stores, or Goodwill stores, Back on the Racks only accepts high quality clothing. This means that everything you find at their store will be designer brands, up to date styles, and in excellent or new condition. This makes it much easier to shop, because you won’t have to sift through the clothing and look for stains, holes, or worn out places, and take the time to evaluate the quality of clothing. Everything in the store has already been looked over for you.
Check out their website to see a long list of the brands they love. There is a separate list of brands for women, kids, babies, and maternity. Are you someone who shops garage sales, swap meets, thrift stores, and tag sales, and can quickly pick out excellent clothing? Back on the Racks is looking for Pickers! A Picker is a person who can bring them clothing items that are good quality, in season, and in style. These are clothing items that can be resold, for a profit. Before you bring clothing to their store, take the time to review the details about what, exactly, they are looking for, and the procedures they would like you to follow. This can be found on their website. If this sounds like something you want to try, and you live in, or nearby, Atascadero, California, there is potential for you to earn some money. If the clothing you bring in sells in a certain amount of time, you can get 40% of the final selling price.
Their facebook page shows photos of some of the clothing that you can currently find in the store. Sometimes they have special deals going on that you can only find out about through their facebook page. They mention the fun things that are going on around the store on certain days, such as festivals and other events. They also post “wish-lists” of items they are looking for.
