The staff was very friendly and I felt comfortable shopping there. The quality of the clothing was fair. Some of the items like the tennis shoes seemed to be in a poor condition for me personally. However, they have a large variety and had some descent quality attire to choose from.As far as selling items there. I will not take anything there again. All the items I took were higher quality name brand items and all were in new condition and/or still had tags. Out of about 40 items, they only kept 6 items totaling around $200.00 retail. They offered me $20.00 for them all. I understand they have to pay rent, employees, their self, etc. But, I felt that offer was absolutely ridiculous. (note: you do not have to accept the offer). I felt that if they mark their inventory half price, they will still make a good profit and be able to flow more items through. Just my opinion.
Style Exchange is Absolute gem in Hickory, million times better then Plato’s closet. At least you get greeted with positive energy and smiles. The couple who owns this store are probably nicest people you will ever meet. I’m not a social media person but I thought it’s only fair if I take some time out and let everyone know definitely try this store before you decide to anywhere else, I promise you you won’t be disappointed. They will go out of there way to help you. Very affordable prices!!! Great customer service!!! Very clean and smells great!!!I spent $58.00 for huge bag full of my kids back to school shopping.Thank you everyone at Style Exchange I will be back😁
I love coming here. They always have nice stuff. Some things are overpriced but they always have sales going on which is they way I shop. 😊 You can also trade your gently used clothing for cash or store credit. 4 stars! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Last week I visited this store for the first time in well over a year, and I will have to say I was thoroughly impressed! I stopped shopping here due to past employees being very rude and unwelcoming. I never felt like I was welcome there. This visit however was a whole new story! I was welcomed by the staff from the second I walked in the door. The store was clean, organized, and well maintained. I spent quite some time there, as I was searching for an outfit to wear to a bridal shower. I was approached several times by one of the girls that I later learned was the manager, and she graciously spent over 20 minutes with me assisting in helping get some outfits together to try on. She was excellent! Not once did I feel like a bother. She made me feel completely welcome and gave me a truly positive shopping experience. This store has done a complete turn around since my last visit! If you stopped shopping here for any reason, I encourage you to give it another shot. I will most definitely be back and will be recommending to friends and family!
First time in this store this week. Really nice, smells nice and clean and didn’t feel like it was used clothing. They’re really friendly and helpful, Plato’s is just rude so I refuse to go there. This is not a big chain store and they treat their customers with respect they deserve.I like it. The lady owner kept my baby entertained so I could shop, she seems so nice. I’m definitely going to be back here. Prices are good too and they had really good items. I got ugg boots for $35, used but really good condition, I thought that was amazing.
I love this store the staff and atmosphere at style exchange is incomparable to the rest. This store is always clean and well maintained no matter what time of day it is. The clothes are excellent quality. There best feature to me are their pocketbooks. I have purchased many some new and used I love them all and they are priced great. A lot of older people think its just for young people but I am middle aged and I shop there all the time, my daughter who is 12 can now wear clothes from there and she can always find the current styles and trends and I save money so if you have never been there you are really missing out
Love this store, not at all like a consignment store. Smells so good and they display everything so good it’s like a boutique but even better because the price tags are so low. I definitely think you should check this place out. They are super friendly and welcoming.
Visited this store today after a friend recommended. I was very happy with the branded items I picked up, only paying a fraction of the mall prices. Having 3 teenage girls I will be a regular here now. Picked up a few Victoria Secret items for the girls and boots for me, definitely recommend, it’s clean, smells great, presented very nicely and the girls were friendly.
I went last week, New owners have done a great job with this store, Now one feels like shopping there unlike before where the old employees were so Rude and moody. I remember there old manger who used to work there last year she was so stuck up. But now The store looks very fresh with new happy faces, Morgan was great help .Lots of nice fashionable items to choose from.Good job guys!!!
I went to this store for the first time today and I was pleasantly surprised at how neat and clean the store was, most thrift and consignment stores are quite messy, this was set up in a boutique style. They have outfits put together for you so that is great. The employees were super friendly and helpful. I will be a regular here!
Every time I come to this place I dont feel welcomed because of the way I dress or even because of my race. So I will understand if they dont say anything when we first walk in because they can be busy at times but its not acceptable for them not to ask if we need help or not to welcome us because when I come in they dont say anything but when the next person comes in who is a white female or thinner female they say something along the lines of hi welcome to style Exchange but has not happened once but every time I go their so I dont recommend going their. Thank youEdit : Thank you to the owner for inviting me over again and thank you so much for the comment about saying that you would love to make us feel welcomed, I appreciate it!👍
This place is absolutely great to shop at now, they have really upped their game in the last few months, you can see huge improvement under the new ownership. The new owners are so nice and helpful. I noticed some of the girls are still there but there attitude is so much better and much friendly.Good luck to the new guys there!
This store is awesome! Doesn’t look like a consignment, they have set it out in really nice way. Love the girls putting outfits together for you... really helps!!
Ive bought clothes here a few times. Some of the girls that worked there were nice. They asked me if I needed help with anything and all that. But I had a bad experience with selling clothes. I took my NICE GENTLY used clothes that I just dont touch in my closet to them. And they said it had stains like what??!! Stains where!! Im selling them because they are in GOOD condition. Like, you just lost some good clothes that you probably make money out of! Never selling clothes here again!
Love this store! I’ve seen a positive difference over the past several months. The new owners are awesome. My sister shops online and they ship her orders out to her in Florida.
I love shopping at Style Exchange they always have the latest fashion clothing!Top store with excellent customer service. Definitely check them out, very affordable prices.
This has to be the number one consignment store in Hickory. I love this store, Girls are so nice and friendly, Very honest people always give you best price for your items.Before you go elsewhere check them out, I promise you, you won’t be disappointed.
Great Store!! I personally think this is the best consignment store in Catawba county, they offer you the best prices for your goods. Really friendly bunch of ladies!!!Very clean and upmarket looking.
Style Exchange is getting better and better for gently used and new clothing in Hickory. I’ve been there few times now, customer service is so good now, the new owners are welcoming and friendly. I will be recommending them to all my friends and family
Sold mix bunch of cloths they took most of it apart from some summer shirts which I understand. Got lot more than I would have got from Plato’s closet. Nice friendly folks!!
This place is better than Plato’s Closet by FAR!! The prices are much better compared to Plato’s and their employees are MUCH nicer. I’ve shopped and bought from both but I’ll only ever go here now. One day I went to both looking for shorts that fit and I found great options at Plato’s but they wanted full price for them as if they weren’t used clothes, after I came to style exchange and I was able to find name brand shorts that were cute and within my budget and the ladies were very kind to let me in and out of the dressing room without hassle (even though I was being bothersome, they didn’t think so and helped me anyway they could)The only problem I have is their selection isn’t as big as Plato’s but you can still find almost anything you’re looking for.
Sold some of my jeans and shoes here. I was really happy with my payout. Nice store with good bunch of girls!!
Super clean Store with wide range to choose from. The lady owner is so beautiful and extremely friendly, me and my friend got some great bargains. I highly recommend this place.Check them out!!!!
I was so impressed with the way we were taken care of by really nice couple on Saturday, due to bad weather they had no power no heating yet we were given 5 star service by them. Probably one of the nicest couple me and my wife met after a very long time.Thank you Guys!God bless you and your business.
First time in this store this week and I was impressed with how fresh and clean it was. The girls were super nice, I didnt sell anything but picked up a few good pieces for myself and my wife. Will definitely come back again>
Amazing store to shop at!!!Great service!!!Friendly employees!!!Very clean and smells really good!!!Really good prices!!!I bought a complete outfit for $25.00, they have so much choice.
My first time shopping here, What a Amazing Store!!! I was so impressed with the customer service and they have some really nice branded clothing!!! Keep it up guys😊See you soon!!
Great Service! Pa is fab manager really has good knowledge The other girl I think Danielle she’s also really good. Good place to pick up bargains.
Store itself has very friendly staff and a great selection of clothes BUT I will NEVER take any of my clothes back to this place! They kept 1 pair of jeans, 1 sweater & a pair of grey boots and gave me $9 store credit! I would have done better by selling online. Such a HUGE disappointment!
I went back in there after long time one of my friends told me it’s been taken over by new people. I must say the new folks they are so nice and friendly, I think they are husband and wife, thank goodness the old owner and manager have gone they were so stuckup especially there old moody manager who just never smiled. Good luck to the new guys!!!!
The ladies that work here are so kind and helpful! Exemplary customer service and amazing prices for their clothes and shoes! ❤
Since the new owners took over I can see huge improvement, they have few very friendly new girls who are really helpfull. But I did notice one of the girls I think her name is Katie she needs few smiling lessons!! But overall it’s been a good shopping hour😀
Absolutely love this store, Owners are so respectful and so so nice. Great selection of clothes and accessories. It doesn’t look like a consignment store at all, it’s more of Botique look and it smells so nice.
Finally So Pleased to see some fresh and happy faces. This place really cool now. Great Service
I love shopping in this store! The store is always so neat and clean! Everytime I walk in the door Im always greeted with a smile and a hello. I recommend shopping there for great styles at a reasonable price.
Top place to shop so much better then Plato’s closet!!paid me almost twice as much then Plato’s closet offers. Highly recommended!!!Thank you Style exchange
I picked up great bargain at style exchange got myself Mk jacket brand new with tags for $65.00. New owners are so friendly much better than that moody and stuck up Aqua B owner who used to own style exchange, even the old store manager was little stuck up but I’m glad to see new owners . I will definitely shop there again and support these guys.
I couldn’t stand Michelle, Aqua B owner and some of the girls who used to work for her they were so Rude and so so moody. But I was so amazed to see the new guys talking to customers being so helpful. To all my friends let’s go back to style Exchange😘😘
Love love this Store. Owners are really nice and friendly . They gave me excellent price for my UA jacket and AE jeans. I bought Mk purse for $40.00 it was in excellent condition. Definitely worth 5 star rating.
Great store! Doesnt seem like its Consignment, smells great and theyre very welcoming. Ill be back!!
I love this store. Really nice and friendly employees with 5 star customer service.
Finally Fresh and friendly faces to greet you when you go in now. Million times better than the previous owners especially Katie, man o man she was so stuckup. Hopefully if it stays like this I’ll be back shopping again.
Daughter and granddaughter find nice things at reasonable prices
I went in with 7 pairs of jeans. 2 pair of Wranglers brand new with tags, 2 pair of Levis new with tags. There was also 2 pair of Wranglers in excellent shape but used and a pair of Levis the same. I forgot about them and didnt go back. The young lady told me they would call me to remind me about them because I told her due to my medication I have short term memory problems. Did they call????? NO!! Anyway I got a ten dollar store credit and the rest of the jeans were given to charity!!!!!!!???????? Whatever. BEWARE!!
This store is upgrade version of Plato’s closet with better selection of clothing. Really nice and friendly customer service.
This place is so much better then any other store in Hickory, They paid me really good money for my Nike shoes and UA top. Before you go anywhere else check them out.Top customer service!!! Very friendly!!!!👍🏼
Very clean nice respectful people clothes kids clothes are good but prices are ridiculous only on Kino for him and we won’t do for them ridiculous
I am not very happy.. I took 13 pairs of jeans all miss me or American Eagle a bag full of very nice clothes and corral vintage boots (which I paid $300.00 for) they tried to keep 2 pairs of shorts and my boots for $50.00.. when a majority of the clothes hanging in there had small holes or was out dated. I will not ever try and do business with them again.
My first time at this store went in with elderly parents the owner was there who offerd my parents seating and drinks. I️ was so impressed with there product and prices, reallly nice store with friendly employees and amazing owner. This will be my first choice to shop from now on.Thank you guys!!
I’m leaving this review based on my most recent visit today. If I could leave a seperate review for my previous visit I would because they were two totally different experiences. My daughter and I stopped on late Saturday evening after being referred to this store by a friend. We were excited to give it a try but were quickly disapppointed by the service we received by those working. We were “greeted” by a tall girl with dark hair almost black and shorter blonde. I use greeted lightly as it wasn’t very “welcoming” and more so forced. As we looked around my daughter saw several things hanging up that we needed help getting down for her to look at. When we asked someone to help us we were made to feel like we were interrupting and they couldn’t be bothered to help us. It was very apparent that their attitude was they were ready for us to leave. My daughter and I left confused since my friend that referred us spoke so highly of the customer service. After some encouragement from our friend, my daughter and I decided to give it one more try and go again this afternoon. It was a completely different experience. We were enthusiastically greeted by two different girls. One with long brown hair and one with short brown/black hair. This time we actually felt welcomed upon entering. We asked both workers for help on seperate occasions and they were both eager and willing to help us each time. They were very sweet and kind which was refreshing after our last visit. This is the service we had heard of and came for. They genuinely made us feel like family it was a great experience. We will be back, but will definitely keep in mind who is working.
They have a great selection of clothing and even carry clothing for the bigger girls like me. Ive never come in and not found something new for my wardrobe.
Number one consignment store in Catawba county which also has huge selection of new with tags clothing. My family and I LOVE SHOPPING HERE.Thank you
Amazing store with name brand clothing at very reasonable prices.girls are really friendly and pretty hot looking 😍
Picked up some good brands at great prices. Will definitely recommend to my money saving friends!
I sold my Nike shoes here today, They gave me $8.00 More than Platos closet. I really like this store, Employees are really nice and they offer A+ custmor service!!!
Really good service very nice for consignment store, but I do agree with Cindy, Kate girl you do need to smile bit more I’m sure you don’t work there for free.
Very happy with my MK purse purchase, Very nice people to do business with.
Good prices and better selection than goodwill!
Gave me really good money for my jeans and shoes. One happy customer 😀Thank you guys
I was told by one of the girls that this place has new owners now’ you can see the change good service nice and clean.
Excellent !!! They have a lot of clothes,shoes etc. all look like new . My purse and wallet are beautiful and great price ❤️ love it
Absolute gem in Hickory, I really enjoy shopping here, this place is definitely worth 5 stars in every way possible
The greatest place on earth...a real hoot!!
Always my go-to store for great deals on name brand clothes and purses! The staff is very friendly and always willing to help out with whatever you need.
Great deal on under armour heat gear compression pants for men $8 awesome deal . A+
5 stars all the way for this Awesome store and it’s Employees 👍🏼
Recieved $8 for a Tommy Bahama dress, a pair of heels, and a pair of Sperry’s. I’m obviously not going to want a $100, but that is ridiculous.
My experience has been great at Style Exchange every time I have came . I totally recommend this place to anyone .
LOVE IT ! WONDERFUL CLOTHES and theyre not snobbish like Platos!
We LOVE this store!!! There is always something we want.
Excellent store! Customer service has improved immensely under the new ownership.
Very nice staff. Extremly helpful. They have men and womens clothes.
My first time experience, Really nice bunch of guys it was pleasure shopping at Style Exchange!!! The owner asked in a very sexy acsent if I needed any help, he also smelled really nice -Lol no doubt I’ll be back soon!
Fantastic customer service and very friendly employees who are always very nice and they have great selection of items at very reasonable prices.
It was a pleasure meeting jard really friendly guy good clean store nice girls.
Worst experience ever! My elderly aunt dropped off clothes and was told it was OK to pick them up later that week. Upon returning to the store, we were told her clothes had been donated to Goodwill and there was nothing good in the drop off! There were name brand clothes and shoes with tags (MK, Sperry Shoes, etc). After mutpile calls and ridiculous lies from the manager the final outcome was...all her bags, 4, were miraculously found after returning to the store. It would take entirely too long to tell everyone about all of the lies I was told. Finally, after informing them that I would call the BBB, they returned everything. But not before telling my aunt to go search through everyone elses junk in the back. DO NOT TRUST OR DO BUSINESS with this sorry excuse for an establishment. BBB has been made aware of this incident.
Great place and very nice employees
Excellent customer service! Great prices, definitely recommend it to money savers
Not really friendly... Didnt find value in most of my items, even though they were nearly unused and name brand. So, I took them to Platos Closet and they nearly bought the rest.
Bought some makeup at really good price, Pa and the Owner are Amazing so so friendly and so helpful! These guys deserved my business.
Awesome friendly staff. Clean atmoshere. Neatly stocked!
Very clean and botique looking, Excellent Custmor service, huge huge brand name selection and very affordable prices!!!
To drop of items and fill out your name and phone number for them to contact you once theyre finished, and then not contact you.....then to top it off because you didnt get contacted.....they donated your clothes they didnt choose, the very same day. In my eyes, they were very nice clothes. They may not have thought so, but to just donate them is absurd. More than the same day notice is not fair. The girl at the desk stated she would call, and didnt explain any further. Then I was told a couple of my item were kept and I had a $2.30 credit. WoW!!! Not even worth my gas to drive there. I have never found anything there that isnt washed to death or stretched and faded. The things I took were in much better shape, and name brand.
I asked for an item to be held for me. They told me they would hold it for 30 mins. I walked in on the 30 min mark and they said they already put it on hold for someone else. Then I checked fb and they said they would hold it for the other person till 5 (which is 3 hours away) I had called and messaged them on fb telling them I was on my way. A few days before I had called to have a pair of shoes held. I drive up there and they are the wrong ones. Then they message me a day later and say they do have the ones I wanted. Style Exchange used to have workers that were not immature and unfair. Now they run a very bad business. The clothes also have had holes under arms and they would not do anything. We will not be shopping here anymore and will spread the word about this.
Service was really well... Very good makeup for cheap :)
I love this store, great choice, Excellent customer service and really friendly employees
Definitely worth the visit, got few good deals on Christmas presents
Only gave me 20 percent of the retail value for a pair of shoes so I didnt sell them. A complete waste of time.
I am extremely pleased with serviceI received today....Everyone was soo very helpfully!
Dont! Waste your time with these fools they know nothing about fashion nor will they try to help you!!! Ive brought a pair of Jordans that were worth $200 and they said no we cant take these because they simply were not in fashion! And they were going to give me only 20 dollars for them! I also brought my stuff in a bag and I was two hours late to pick it up and they gave it away to donations right after I called! Again do not waste your time!!!
Way too picky. They judge by the person who walks in not the stuff they are supposed to judge. Im telling you if you want to actually make a little money, Platos Closet will take at least a few items when Style Exchange doesnt.
Very RUDE employees..I took in nice clothing but they assumed that they were all my clothes..and I am 57 but they werent and I was told they dont take older people stuff, so I told her where I would like for her to go lol an left NEVER TO RETURN AGAIN.
Huge selection to choose from at very reasonable prices.Good customer service, hot and friendly employees.lol
I love shopping at style exchange the staff is always so friendly and welcoming!
Excellent customer service, Great choice, Amazing prices, get so much value for money!
Excellent service now, very noticeable change under the new owners!
Always helpful..even pulled clothing off two mannequins!!
I absolutely love this store..I have to stop in this store every time that my family and I are in town..I havent ever taken things here but I love to shop here.Theyre prices are unbelievably inexpensive..
Nice clean very helpful people great selection🙌🏼
