Hit or miss on prices. Some prices are fair, others are way beyond what the item is worth. Its insulting when you post the latest price you found posted on Ebay. Please remember you are a thrift store. You are not an antiques dealer, where they properly identify, clean or restore the item, and display it neatly in a clean store. You didnt even buy the items, they were donated. So please stop assuming you should get the same price as someone who bought the item, marked it up to make a profit, and did all these things to prepare it for sale. That aside . . . People are friendly. Items move fairly quickly so there is always something new. Definitely worth a visit for the occasional bargain.

I understand the purpose / mission behind this place, but some of the items are priced above new @ RETAIL... Im not sure whos pricing this "donated" stuff, but the Raleigh location has a much better variety & the pricing seems more aligned with the idea / fact that much of this is used & - more importantly - the $$$ only matters if the stuff actually sells... its too bad, too... this ReStore is much closer to me than the other & Im actually nearby several times throughout the week/weekend/month...

This place has a very limited selection and its never very high quality. Cabinets have doors hanging off, all the light fixtures are aged and broken and the prices are terribly high. I was interested in a framed print and I turned the image around thinking it was going be 8-10 dollars and it was $35! I do t recommend this place.

You can purchase the same thing new for what Habitat wants used. My suggestion is if something doesnt sell lower the price. Dont let it sit their for weeks collecting dust. Be reasonable with the pricing. This is all USED STUFF!!

Make sure your item works properly before you leave especially appliances because they will not reimburse your money, they will only give you a store credit, even it you just bought the item an hour ago.

Found a lot of stuff we needed, including subsidized LED replacement lights for $1 each! Lots of light fixtures, outlet and switch covers, a fair selection of furniture with minor blemishes.

Howard Thirtle

Such a great selection of second-hand home décor, furniture, fixtures, you name it! Discounts compound the longer an item is on the floor unsold. Got many great deals here !

I love going to the restore! There are always 2-4 eager volunteers eager to help with donations or get me a great deal when I need something for home improvement and repair!

Great people, great service, great mission, great way to reuse items and great deals! One recommendation would be larger lettering on labels for categories to find things.

The quality of the products here is superb, I bought my computer desk made out of solid wood. not processed plywood mind you; for ten dollars and there is so much more.

Super cheap prices. Random variety of goods. Always worth looking for bargains here before paying retail. Cary location is always lower priced than Raleigh location.

Smaller Habitat provides a great shopping experience. Someone is always around to help answer questions and the high sales turnover means its new every time.

If you want to find decent used furniture, this is a good place. New items ship daily. Still a small store though, not much to choose from.

I donated some light fittings. I really respect the mission of ReStore to provide construction supplies to low income households.

They tend to have a little bit nicer brands/items, but the stock is limited by space. Always has lots of options for lighting.

Its pretty rare that I find anything at this smaller habitat restore, the main location on capital is well worth the drive.
