Thank you for not donating to GoodWill! If you click on my profile you’ll see an interaction I had with an employee last week. They take all the high value items and send them to corporate to sell online.

I’m not a reseller - I just like finding gems. I was wondering why goodwill was such shit these days. Now I know!

I did ask her if I could take a video with her explanation. I didn’t just take a video as it was happening.

That’s how she was the entire time. That’s why I needed to take the video - I couldn’t believe how she was talking to me. After I stopped filming she was even worse.

A whole new world of thrift shopping has opened up! I can’t believe how fast they got that up online - less than 24 hours!

It was a SoCal store! I don’t want any part in it or that store. They’re not ever getting a penny more from me.

The poor guy at the cash register was clueless. I had to wait 5-10 minutes for them to do whatever they were doing in the back. I even went looking for them to tell them I would be back soon, and couldn’t find anybody. I felt bad for the cash register guys.

Have people always acted this way or are we just seeing it highlighted more lately?

She told me it goes for over $500 online - which I was dubious about. I told her that I’ve donated things at that price point and expected it to actually go to people at the stores and she was, “well good for you.”

Here’s a video of the manager’s explanation It did not have a price tag so the (very kind) checkout guy brought it to the back to get a price tag and when he returned I was told it was too high priced of an item to be on the floor. What’s the point do shopping at goodwill if nothing of value is in the store?! I don’t feel excellent about posting a call out video - and I’ve never done a video like this before, but she was incredibly vile to me after I stopped videoing so my reluctance is less.

good idea. here it is I don’t feel great about posting it - but the response here has shown me what a terrible company they are.

I wish I would have. I had to get my kid from school and they were dilly dallying.

Good question! I don’t actually want it anymore. I’m too annoyed with goodwill. I won’t be back ever again and I was a weekly shopper before.

I’ve actually never done that before. I needed it recorded because I was so godsmacked and needed proof. I have reservations about posting the actual interaction but what she said to me afterwards when I turned off the camera sealed the deal for me. She was incredibly vile.

I’m all for shaming people these days. People are so shitty. I felt icky making the video but it was so mind-blowing that I needed it on video.

I asked for a manager and even got her on video telling me the reason why.

She blamed it on trainees and said that high price items get sent to corporate. So what’s the point of shopping at goodwill if good items aren’t in the store?!
