Sparkle Plenty Resale Boutique

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS STORE AND THEIR STAFF SPECIALLY ANTONY MICHAEL!!! Every time I go in there I get greeted cheerfully and their very helpful. I went in yesterday to purchase my dress for my friends wedding and Antony helped me out from the beginning til the end. He was very respectful and attentive to the type of dress I was looking for. All their staff is respectful and kind. Their prices are good too. I don’t understand why people expect to buy a 200 dollar gown for 5 bucks?- Seriously? Do you not know what is called?- Sparkle Plenty Upscale Boutique store!!!- DuH! I They have fancy clothes that are worth more than what they ask for, obviously is not new that is why is a resale boutique store. They might not have super fancy name brands but they carry super unique one of a kind dresses that you wouldn’t find anywhere else. — Last year I came here two days before my high school reunion and found the dress that I was searching for. At the reunion everyone asked me where I had purchased my dress and complimented on it. I found A SIMILAR dress on the web for over 300 dollars and bought mine for FAR LESS THAN THAT!!! WHAT A STEAL!
As far as being sparkly there’s plenty of sparkly dresses you just HAVE TO SEARCH FOR THE RIGHT ONE. That might be hard for some people to do but I recommend any one to come here if you are looking for a dress for a special occasion or a night out with the girls. They have lots of jewelry at great prices and like I said GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE. =)
THANKS ANTONY FOR ALL YOUR HELP!!!

There is no sparkle inside this disorganized boutique of plenty. Everything looks antiquated at best. Can’t tell the designer items from the cheap knock offs, and sadly there is no rhyme or reason to the jewelry cases (silver jewelry mixed in with cheap costume accessories). The gentleman that was there @ 1500 did greet me but never got off his phone. When I would move close to the area he was sitting in, he would move to another and continued talking on the phone, which is just poor customer service. I came in today wanting to consign six designer gowns; however, I wanted to check out the store before toting all these gowns and cocktail dresses into this resale store front. Sadly after seeing the lack of sparkle on the inside of the store, experiencing bad customer service — I’m better off using eBay or Craigslist. If the store owners happen to read this feel free to contact me, and I will be more than happy to paint, organize and develop a system that assist your clients in finding what they need and want quickly and efficiently.

I am extremely happy with my interaction of consignment at the Sparkle Plenty Resale shop. The woman who assisted me on the phone, and in the store was incredibly kind and generous. She had the most pleasant attitude. She had long dark brown hair and is of a hispanic background (I feel so bad that I forgot her name). She was working in the afternoon on this date I am writing this review. There was also a manager, a man who was also in the store and very kind. I am extremely pleased with this store and the way the consignment was handled!

My daughter and I were thrifting one weekend and got lured by the $ 3-​$ 5 rack out front. Everything in the store is way overpriced. I understand that it is a resale store, but other resale stores that I’ve been in have been less expensive.
First off, the clothes are outdated and stuffy, with the exception of the prom/​evening gowns. I’ve seen prom dresses at department stores for cheaper. They have hats displayed on a top rack and the lady there seemed like it bothered her to get one down. Why have something displayed high if you’re not willing to get it down so customers could look at it?
Secondly, the lady there was RUDE! I love jewelry and I spotted a showcase. I asked her if I could see a few rings and while I was inspecting them (to see if what metal it was made of and if the stones were real) she was huffing and puffing like it was a big deal to even show me. She also said, «Its that price because it is real silver.» I actually thought it was a decent price for the ring I was looking at, but her attitude was the deal breaker. I DID NOT want to spend any of my money in her store.
Lastly, my daughter spotted a plaid skirt that she had been looking for, for some time. The price was RIDICULOUS. $ 45 for a worn skirt. PULEEEZEEEE.
Some advice… SKIP THIS PLACE AND SPEND YOUR MONEY ELSEWHERE.

Great items in the store… but kinda pricey. If you are looking for a great vintage bag, hat, or coat place to go. A little smelly but what thirft store doesn’t smell?

I really enjoy going in this store! The saleswomen know your name after a couple of visits, which is so rare these days. I like slinky type «traveling clothes» which they have new under a different sizes. As I am older, I also appreciate quite a large selection of larger clothes and they even have clip on earrings as well as pierced earrings and quite a selection of costume jewelry at good prices. It is an especially good place to find «dress ware» for more formal occasions. It’s right next to Earthgrown Market where I like to shop as well.

Says Upscale resale so I went in. Upscale? Really? Goodwill has a better more upscale choice. This is a junk store. I‘m always looking for high end clothing & I‘m not talking DKNY either. Dont waste your time.

Everything in the store looked/​smelled clean and the store owner [I assume she was the owner] was friendly.
This place boasts upscale resale clothes. I was shocked to see $ 40 – 50 price tags on cheaply made, no-​name dresses. Especially because it’s a thrift store located in not the greatest part of town… these prices might be okay for Encinitas or Carlsbad, but not Oceanside Blvd. Don’t be fooled by the rack out front has $ 3 stuff on it. It’s the only rack I saw that wasn’t priced in the double digits.
Bummer!

I took twelve items to the store. Four of these were St John’s. At the end of the 90 day consignment period, I called and went in to pick up my clothes. Store said only two items were sold. I asked to pick up remainder and the store could only find one item. The items were given to them clean and were returned dirty. I was told to come back later in a week or two and they would find my items. I came back and again no items were returned and again I was told to come back another time. While waiting each time I heard other women ask for their clothes and say they were tired of asking where their clothes are and they want to get paid. None of these women were ever paid for the missing clothes. It appears to me that you clothes are sold and never recorded on your account. The store says that St John’s are not discarded. The owner is extremely rude and the clerks are left to simply try to delay you each time you come to store. I took in twelve items, was only paid for two items, given back four items and told that six items were simply misplaced. One woman said she had been coming to the store every month for over a year to ask about getting her clothes back and she was always sent away. I have used consignment clothes for years to sell unwanted clothing items. This store was the worst I have ever experienced. If you expect to get paid and not ripped off, do not take clothing to this store. The staff is clearly forced to lie to you and the owner tells them over the phone not to pay you what s owed to you.

I love this store! They always have the cutest clothes for really reasonable prices. I can always find something wonderful! I’m a college student and I love to shop here. They have clothes from Banana Republic and Ann Taylor at a great discount. They even have Jimmy Choo shoes! Everyone is super helpful and friendly and I always have a great experience. You won’t regret shopping here!

Seriously overpriced out of date clothing and accessories stuffed into a tiny store run by rude old ladies. Saw at least three pair of Charlotte Rouse shoes that were a few years out of style for $ 25 or more and you don’t even pay that much for them brand new straight out of the store.
I purchased a skirt off the ½ price rack and when I got to the counter I noticed the pink highlighter that marked said item ½ off had transferred to the material… when I asked the woman at the counter if she had something to clean it off with before the stain set, she completely went on the defensive and blamed it on me… treating me like I was just trying to get more discount or not purchase it… I was like, «look lady, I still want the skirt, I just want to clean the stain before it sets…»
I’m never one to complain about customer service because everyone has their off days, but I honestly have never been treated so rudely by anyone ever before. I definitely will not be going back
