This is how it works for me, and I completetly love that I can do this.
1- Bring clothes/shoes/hats to Poor Little Rich Girl first. If you haven't been there, you need to make an appointment, after that you can drop off any time the first 10 days of any month. They pay the most, but only if your items sell, and you do have to wait for payment. They tend to favor the nicest items I have. 2- Take back the items that were rejected from Poor/Rich Girl and walk across the street to Buffalo Exchange. They will assess and pay on the spot, no appointment necessary. It's low money. It's cash though! They tend to take the cheaper, more "youthful" trendy Tshirty stuff. 3 - Take Buffalo's rejects (now twice rejected) and walk another half-block down the street to drop off for donation at Goodwill and pick up a donation receipt!
It's totally ideal, especially if you like Poor Little Rich Girl. Any money I make there I keep in my account rather than cash, since you get 20% more for doing so and I can afford not needing the cash, plus I appreciate their choice and shop their frequently, so big win for me. Buffalo Exchange gives me a little extra coin in my pocket, and Goodwill takes the rest off my hands with a tax write-off as well. I love my system and feel really lucky to be able to mostly avoid mall stores and their prices!
