Poor Men's Selection, Trade-In Prices are a Rip-Off
1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

09/15/2007 Posted by chairmanblank

The men's selection is slim and unimpressive. The ratio is about 90% womens clothes to 10% mens clothes. The selection that is there is definitely above average for thrift clothes. Be warned that Crossroads is not a bargain in terms of mens clothing. They do carry a variety of premium brands but the prices are still high given their age. Be careful when trading in clothes. I traded in several pairs of Lucky Brand Jeans (ret. $100+ ea.) and only got 10% of the retail value back. You're better served by selling your clothes on eBay. There are also other stores such as Buffalo Exchange that will pay you more. Also be warned that they will only take premium labels. Mainstream labels such as Levi's and less commercially known labels will not be accepted. Overall the store is a disappointment. I suggest heading to Melrose to do your thrift diving or some of the other large thrift stores on La Brea in Hollywood. Crossroads is still a throwback to the days of overpriced "vintage" stores. You will find better variety and better prices elsewhere. Just because it says "used" does not mean that it's a bargain.

Pros: Premium Brand Names

Cons: Small mens selection, poor trade-in value
