Buffalo Exchange

A place you can’t miss out if you are looking for low price clothing and accessory. You can find great quality clothing with surprising low price. I got want I want and found many hidden treasures. Also, staffs here are very friendly and helpful.
I just love this place so much

Friendly and great staff. However, I didn’t quite understand why they didn’t buy a single piece of my clothes. Most are in like new condition and some even have tags. I was looking at their clothes for sale while waiting and honestly, most of them look very worn than the clothes I’ve brought in. Disappointed because I wasted my time coming here.

We were wondering along Magazine Street and stopped into a familiar chain-​ish store. An upscale used clothing and accessories store. We managed to find a nice shirt for my cowboy reenactment.
Prices seemed to be a bit Nola’ed for the tourist shopped but not too badly.

I have to give this place 5 stars because of its:
1. Location. It moved to a better spot
2. Price. Nothing has been ridiculous. I have actually been shocked at how low the prices are.
3. Friendly staff. They don’t bug me and they are helpful when I need them.
All in all a good experience

I wouldn’t waste my time, no longer. I brought in trendy pieces to clean out my closet and none of them as claimed they didn’t need being they had «something similar already» in which they did not. Everything’s a different quality/​texture/​color/​pattern. With all the trashy clothes they have!
I also brought a pair of authentic tom ford opticals that i paid $ 430 for and i got offered $ 13 bucks for it. With that being said, I took my things and left.

Review for the New Orleans location only. Despite all the glowing reviews, I really do hate this place. Today I stopped in on the hunt for costume building goods. Skirts, dresses, sequined underwear, anything really. Found a really cool dress by chance and although not what I was looking for, figured I would give it a try. Long story short, the dress, with multiple blemishes (some food or otherwise from the dried crust thatI managed to scrape off) and bleach stains (??) all over the front of the dress was marked for $ 26. Almost thirty dollars for a dress you could only wear at night to disguise all the visible damages. When inquiring whether a damage discount could be applied, one of the dressing room attendants said «Well I can’t see any stains from here, so…»
Ended up purchasing a different item all together and upon completion of my payment I stood there with all of my items lying on the counter. «May I have a bag please?» «We don’t have bags anymore, but you can purchase one for $ 2!» Um no thanks, I’ll just carry my stuff out like I looted the place. I won’t be returning, this is the fourth time I’ve spent time and money at this location and left feeling volatile.

So I love this place. I used to buy, sell and trade at Buffalo Exchange in California, so happy to find one here. This place is perfect for anyone who is into trendy, edgy, or vintage clothing. It’s also pretty legit for costumes!
The thing I LOVE about Buffalo Exchange is that not only is it totally a place where you kind did hidden treasures, buts also where you can possibly turn your old threads, jewelry, or shoes into STORE CREDIT, or CASH!!! Seriously. Those outdated things you have crowding your closet collecting dust, could be a jewel for someone else.
Anyway, I found (the beau actually found the shoes and has required of me to include that in my review) some AMAZING leopard print shoes that I LOVE today for under TWENTY bucks! STEAL! And even got a couple bucks to spare after donating (selling) some old threads. Also, don’t take it PERSONAL if they don’t want your stuff, it’s all about what will sell or what’s in season!
I also appreciated that they were informative about places you can donate the items they don’t want to purchase from you.
If you’ve never been, keep an open mind and check them out. You may find something you love. If not, go sell some stuff!!! Get some money! That’s always fun. Lol.

This place always has great scores. Im a repeat customer. One time i got a pair of 80’s elevator shoes for 20 $ THATS 10 $ A SHOE!!! My experience with the staff is nothing but positive, they love their job and you can tell. Sometimes the merchandise can be a bit pricey for used cloths but they are quality and last forever. They dont use plastic bags there, instead, they donate the cost of the bags to the charity of your choice. Very hip and trendy place to be. Good job guys!

I dig it. I’ve found lots of good stuff here, from work clothes to costumes to things that can transition from work to costume (today’s tip: cover up a sequined bodice with a structured blazer). The store is well laid-​out, and unlike many thrift stores, it’s very well-​organized. There’s a sizable men’s section in the front, and then carousels of women’s clothes broken out by t-​shirts, blouses, sweaters, jackets, dresses, etc. Everything is split up by size, which is hugely helpful.
Of course, like any secondhand store, it can be kind of hit or miss. Some days I’ve found lots of great/​weird things, and sometimes it looks like they just took a bunch of overstock from Forever 21 and American Eagle. If you’re costuming, come early! They always have racks of red dresses before the run, tacky sweaters before Christmas, random awesomeness before Mardi Gras, and all that good stuff, BUT everything gets picked over fairly quickly.
Salespeople are mostly helpful and friendly, although they may not always approach you to offer help when you’re walking around struggling under the weight of 18 hangers. Prices are pretty reasonable (with a few exceptions, like when a shirt from Target that retails for $ 9 is being sold for $ 7). Oh, and remember to bring your own bag!

Came in here to sell and was helped by two very friendly ladies at the front as soon as I walked in. They took less than half of what I brought in but priced it much higher than I expected so I wasn’t disappointed. They had a great attitude and didn’t make me feel bad about my «rejects». I got 50% of the sold items on store credit so I will be back soon to check out some stuff to buy. Store looks great but I didn’t walk around.

I am a thriftier and I love Good will stores and Salvation army but I feel that buffalo exchange is too expensive to say its second hand items. They are priced here as high as in the store. I don’t know if it is because the store is on magazine or what but they need to lower the prices !

Fabulous store. Very customer service strong. Good selection. Helpful. Good place for long shopping trips. But haven’t sold there yet. No experience there. Love the no bags, donate thing. Very clever. Bring your own bag of you plan on buying more than one item. Hard not to do.

Really great little shop. Brought a bag of clothes that I have no need for and ended up selling 2 scarves and a dress for $ 21 store credit. I’m always second hand shopping so now my next trip here I will feel like it’s free haha.

One of the downsides of regular exercise is that you will find your old clothes simply won’t fit anymore. I brought a handful of old Lacoste polos, many of which were faded and all of which were sizes I couldn’t wear anymore. Jessi, the buyer I worked with, was super friendly and walked me through the process since I had never sold my old clothing before. They took a few of the shirts, and I ended up selling the rest at Funky Monkey and Plato’s Closet. They paid more than either of those places so that was good.
I’ve also bought clothing here and there are many awesome finds to be had. Definitely worth a stop if you’re nearby. Apparently they’re a chain so I’ll look for them when I’m traveling!

I Find This Store RACIST Against Blacks, When I Comes Down To Selling CLOTHS TO THEM
Me And My Friend (Who IS White B.t.w)
Went into the store in hopes of selling our used cloths I went in first with nothing but designer cloths Michael kors, Vintage Coach, Gucci and all and they didn’t take Any of it… Which left me quite puzzled,
SO I sent my friend in there just to double Check And BOOMMMMMMMMM
THEY took everything In the bag GUYSS PLEASE BEAWARE
I WILL NEVER ENTER THIS STORE AGAIN

I sold some clothes today for the first time and they were AMAZING! I had stuff from gap, american eagle, old navy and hm and they gave me a good amount of money!
They also have a donating bin if you want to get rid of the clothes they’re not buying which is super helpful!
Definitely recommend!

As a twenty-​something who has to dress professionally but doesn’t have the money for an extensive wardrobe, Buffalo Exchange has been my trusted fallback.
The clothing options range from Brooks Brothers dress shirts to florescent tank tops w/​the F-​word on it. This place has something for everyone. And at really affordable prices.

I love a good resale shop and this place has something for everyone, except kids. It’s strictly for the grown and sexy!
The clothing is organized well so you can fin the style and size you need. There were surprisingly quite a few employees on the floor offering assistance and being super friendly. A+ on customer service.
One thing that stood out were the men who worked there which i thought was cool since there were quite a few men in the store who had already browsed the racks and/​or were sitting waiting on their female counterparts. It just felt very comfortable and welcoming to both sexes-​not overly «feminine» as many resale shops can be. In fact the mens clothing is easily located at the front of the store which was cool to see cuz their 1 – 2 racks are usually in the back, lol. So kudos for making the men feel represented. My hubbie actually browsed and he’s not a resale kinda guy… or is he… now.
I found some super cute shirts and honestly if we weren’t passing thru I would still be there trying stuff on, lol. Just a fun, trendy place to shop. Prices aren’t cheap, but not overpriced considering the brands they carry.
If you like thrift stores and resale shops you have got to check this place out. It will be someplace I stop by every time I visit New Orleans.
(One more day left before we go home… yeah, I’m goin back)

This was my 1^st time going to buffalo exchange. I ran across this place on Unilocal and thought I would try it out. I have tons of clothes, but I brought in a few just to see how things go. A few of my clothes they bought so I had a choice of cash or store credit. I opt for the credit and got some great shoes and a very unique top. I’m glad I went and look forward to going back. Never would have known about this place if it wasn’t for Unilocal and its reviews. Oh and the staff was great and helpful!

Went here on the eve of Halloween in a last minute effort to find a piece for my costume, which luckily, I did. They have clothing for both men and women with roughly equal amounts for each gender. Along each wall, there are shelving with more clothing hanging with shoes above those shelves.
The few garments I looked at were actually pretty good, I expected a lot less from a second hand shop but a few prices were ridiculous. I don’t think I’d spend more than $ 30 on something second hand and they had stuff priced at over triple that amount! I think I’d rather just buy new if I wanted something that expensive.
There are changing rooms available at the back of the shop too so you can try before you buy, and I do suggest that you do as they do not accept returns.
If you’re looking for either a cheap outfit or a vintage one, definitely check out Buffalo Exchange, just be cautious on sizing and those few $$$ priced garments.
