Riverside ReStore

Good deals if you search. Everything from construction stuff to decor. Usually has some gardening stuff.

This place is hit or miss on prices. Some items are priced at retail, but then you'll find other stuff that is discounted. I suggest you follow them on social media so you can be notified of inventory and sales. Their sales are usually great and that's the time to buy. They always have furniture and Amazon paint (in neutral colors everyone would use). This place occasionally gets kitchen cabinets which seem to be priced well if you want to remodel your kitchen. The challenge is having the pieces you need. Every time I go, I like to look at their doors and chandeliers because they are so eclectic. Some of the furniture is still new in the box and then there is donated furniture. Damaged furniture pieces are typically repairable if you have a handy side. I give this place 3 stars because of

Many years ago, before they moved to this new, comparatively huge store, as compared to the old location, the prices were great! Since the move, like many of the sensible reviewers have said, the prices are right up there with regular retail, maybe 10% less. Unless it is a sale day and the particular item is listed specifically, there's no deal. I am well aware of the charitable contributions "Habitat for Humanity" has provided and meant for so many families. It really is a wonderful endeavor! However, after browsing the resale store one is left almost insulted. It may feel like you've been lied to. Unless, of course, the item is on a sale day and is specifically listed. For instance, recently bathroom accessories were on sale for 75% off the marked price! I brought a shower curtain rod

I know it's for a great cause, but let's face it, we come to a place like this to find good items at a great price & it's not the case. I often find myself wondering who the heck prices these items?! Don't they get it that it just doesn't make sense? They would sell more in the long run if they were creative with their pricing. Alot of the items are also very heavy & just not worth over paying for an item you have to also worry about transporting. I work literally down the street & often go during lunch just to see if I can find a deal only to usually walk away disappointed.

The pricing makes no sense smaller versions of the same item will be priced higher the crossed out prices on big ticket items indicate a too high initial price. The Ontario location is less expensive and usually has more to offer. Addendum, well the random pricing has been fixed. Now everything is just expensive, I mean like near retail for used items. I had a hard time finding anything I thought was a deal and almost everything except small items started at $10.
