St. Vincent de Paul Thrift Store 2611 Buford Road, Richmond, VA 23235

"A real gem of a Thrift shop! So happy to discover this place that opened less than a year ago. Great quality items that have been donated to to sell and all profits go to help people in need. Located on Buford Road across the street from Buford Pharmacy and Joe's Inn Restaurant. Parking is limited so you might have to find a spot close by ."

"Shopped there a little over 2 weeks ago and the store seemed clean, organized and the staff was very friendly....... The only problem is I WOULD NOT BUY FURNITURE FROM HERE. I bought a piece of furniture from this particular location and ended up with BED BUGS. I tried to call the store multiple times on different days/times to speak to someone but no one ever answers the calls, so please buyers beware and buy at your own risk!!! If you do buy from here, I suggest treating the furniture before introducing it into your home. We are lead to believe the store knows because the gentleman that helped load the piece was loading in a very distant and strange way that we didn't think much of at first. Once we started getting bit up and seeing the bugs for ourselves, it all came together for us. The associate most likely knew the deal unfortunately and it made a lot of sense after the fact. I wish there was more transparency and that we would have had the chance to get it taken care of before infesting my home, kids and pets unexpectedly. Instead of spending less for an antique piece of furniture, we would have been better off buying a brand new piece, avoiding the headache and the extra hundreds of dollars spent to resolve this issue. I hope the store can treat all the furniture there and help keep potential buyers from the things my family and I have had to go through in this last week and a half of our lives. I guess that's the risk you take when you thrift but I just want to make others aware and help the community if I can, so they can avoid what we had to endure. If I could take back anything from that particular day, I would have never bought that furniture but lesson definitely learned. Please be careful when you thrift at any store because it's liable to happen anywhere. Also, if you see black spots at the bottom of any of the furniture you are getting ready to purchase that's a huge tell tale sign of a bed bug infestation and I wish I knew what to look for before I set it into my home. Thanks for reading my review and I hope this helps keep other families safe and bed bug free!!!"

"Very upscale clothing, great prices for furniture. Good selection of books. Very pleasant and helpful staff. Will definitely return to both donate and browse."

"Great thrift store. Prices are fair, staff are kind and helpful. Larger selection of clothes than furniture. Nice sized kids/toy area."

"This was my first visit but it won't be my last! Nice store, helpful people. Clothing sorted by size, good selection. Color-coded discount system. Good prices. Open on Monday! I took away one star because the hanging pictures seemed quite a bit more than at other thrifts. Also, there was nothing special about the clothes in their "boutique" area."
