How we buy

How and what do we buy? We buy junior items in excellent condition that are less than 2 years old. Our pricing system will price the items roughly 50-70% off the original price and will offer roughly 30% - 40% of our retail price as the offer. If the seller does not like the offer our system generates, the seller can take any or all of their items back, no questions asked. There is no appointment necessary and we buy all seasons every day.

Plato’s Closet in Columbus, GA opened in November 2002. We make it easy for sustainability-focused teens and young adults to buy affordably and sell gently used clothes, shoes and accessories for cash on the spot. Each Plato’s Closet location is individually owned and operated by local business owners, so you can feel good about shopping small.
