Clothing Thrift/Consignment

I know there are many places in Davis where one can bring old clothes to consign, sell, or donate. Which places are best for which type of clothing? (For example, is one better for designer and another for vintage-style? Hipster?) Any one(s) you'd recommend over the others in general? What are their processes like? [Who gives cash? Credit? Consigns? Need an appointment? How far ahead? That sort of thing.]

The collective wisdom of this community is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I know that as a shopper, I'd probably first go to Poor Little Rich Girl if I were looking for vintage clothes in Davis. I have never consigned anything, so I don't know about the process. When I donate old clothes, I donate them to Goodwill.

I know I can donate to Goodwill and have done that countless times, but I was thinking about exploring the new frontier (for me) of a bit of cash instead of the tax deduction. :)

Ah, OK, I was thinking of "donation" as separate from selling.
