[QUOTE="mirana, post: 9563674, member: 79705"]Guess I'll have to expand my territory! The Restore here had outrageous prices last I looked but that was years ago. I poke through my local GW online listings occasionally and they are....terrible. I found a $400 brand new purse and $500 coat last couple of weeks, but their online listings are broken toys and kids clothes bag lots. They stopped allowing local pickup so I don't know what they'd even do with furniture. The hub store where they take pictures is in new suburbia so they have no nice furniture and I don't think they'd bother bringing the "good stuff" from the city an hour away. The staff is also not allowed to buy anything from the store they work at. I knew that, but once overheard a new hire tell their boss they were so excited to work there because they always saw such cool stuff in that store. Boss replied, "Congratulations, you can't buy anything here anymore." :facepalm::hilarious:[/QUOTE]
