I was browsing around today in this store. Their prices are not great. But they had some cute, cheaper items I was considering buying. Then I found a US Navy issued pea-coat with the military tag stitched inside the collar removed and an "Avenue" metal tag, held on with chain that was obviously hand sewn in. I checked the inside of the bottom of the coat, and lo and behold, the tell-tale white stencil of a name and four numbers...I was in the Navy for 5 years. This was a military coat - falsely tagged, over-priced at $60, with the original Navy buttons still sewn on it. I found this insulting and took it to the counter to make the staff aware of it. The clerk at the front was rude about and turned her back on me to take a phone call. Im assuming its because she did not want to own up to what amounts to be fraudulent retail sales. I dont know if anyone else cares that they are selling fakes, and using military gear to do so...but I walked out without buying anything and I will never return to a store that is so dishonest. Two thumbs way down. Shame on the owner and the staff of this place.

I came in to drop off some clothes and stood at the counter for a good five minutes before someone came to help me, even though I KNOW two clerks saw me come in. Maybe I wasnt dressed cool/crappy/hipster enough? They only took a few items, but they took the ugliest stuff I had and passed over a pair of brand-new $150 leather Dansko shoes. They do have a few good things, but way overpriced. The attitude and terrible value left a very bad taste in my mouth. Ill shop at Value Village from now on, where my money goes to a good cause rather than boosting the over-inflated egos of the snootiest salespeople Ive ever met. This is hipster heaven, but hell for the rest of us.

I stood at the counter for several minutes with no employees in sight. The girl working only came to the front when anothrr co worker came in from outside yelling her name talking about covering shifts. Even after she saw me, she didnt greet me. Just stared at me like I was bugging her by coming in. I told her I came to sell and she told me she wasnt interested without even looking at the clothes. Sorry I expected you to do your job.

I visited Dumpster Values in November 2014 and February 2015. Both times I was greeted when I came in. The shop was clean, well-organized, & easy to navigate. Lots of character too! The staff was friendly both times, prices were totally reasonable. The sales girl clearly adored vintage clothing and wants everyone to feel good with their clothing selections. Its a must visit if you are going to be in downtown Olympia!

Dumpster Values features an equal amount of men and womens vintage clothing ranging from the 1930s to 90s. Id say the majority of items fall into the 1960s on. The mens section is especially good. They have a decent amount of accessories and shoes. Prices are reasonable with regular discounts on items that have been in stock for awhile. Friendly staff - worth a stop!

Dumpster Values has been an arts community hub for many years. Its a vintage store, not a thrift store. They have great prices for a vintage store. If you need it to be cheaper you might try a garage sale. I can always leave with something great at a reasonable price. When I shop there I feel good about supporting a local woman owned institution.

I love this place- always have ; what a great Oly.place, it started off small, grass roots style and its now a thriving local business. Good job! Its the place where you will find everything you wanted and much much more . Like Olympia herself, "Its the water...and a lot more"!

Quirky, big selection, and a ton of locally made/designed clothing. Biggest selection of mens clothing anywhere downtown. If youre lucky there will be some interesting furniture and instrument amplifiers for sale, too. Its got a coffee and record store connected, too.

Best-ever curated vintage & thrift shop. They have extensive mens and womens sections. The prices here are some of the best Ive seen anywhere! Theres a whole lot of true vintage here, and its all affordable.

Easy to spend a solid hour or two here just browsing anything and everything. Coffee, skate, and music connected too. Definitely one of my favorite places to kill time in Olympia

Although they little more pricey than some other Thrift stores, their quality more than makes up for it. Great feel too and the employees are very kind.

Very cute store. Prices vary, so dont expect cheap, but also dont expect overpriced. They recently started accepting cards which makes them 100% better.

Kristina Koutlas

They are higher priced. Also, I feel they lack in the customer service department. I tried to get the clerk s attention, but she paid no mind.

Jeffrey Duddles

Great local thrift store. Ive picked up several things that I use all the time. Prices are fair and there is an ever changing inventory.

Fun kitchy shop, embedded with two others shops. Funky. Sadly, old building, old weird smell too.

Cassandra Sharron

They take donations until 5pm. And you get this going card with a few bucks for each item.
