12 Best Thrift Stores In Seattle For Preloved In The PNW

The beloved Capitol Hill thrift institution at 312 Broadway E didn’t close so much as transform. Magpie Thrift opened its doors in April 2025, taking over the same 12,500-square-foot, two-level space and keeping almost all the same staff from the former Lifelong Thrift, which ran there for a decade before redirecting its focus to expanded meal and housing services. Former Lifelong director Tamara Asakawa founded Magpie, and the bones of the place (right down to the queer community memorabilia on the walls) stayed intact.

Magpie sells clothing, accessories, homewares, furniture, and vinyl records across its two levels, with an “As Is” section for items that need a little love but are too good to toss. The store is a proud partner of Everly Seattle, a new nonprofit that channels proceeds toward circular care, LGBTQ+ senior support (including a “Downsize with Dignity” program), and community events. Open Tuesday through Sunday, it remains exactly what it always was: Capitol Hill’s neighborhood department store, just with a new name on the door.

Boasting a well-organized stock at affordable prices, Labels is one of the best Seattle secondhand stores for women looking for quality consignment clothing, shoes, and accessories. You can expect to find pieces in like-new condition from sustainable clothing brands like Allbirds, Amour Vert, Christy Dawn, Eileen Fisher, Girlfriend Collective, MATE the Label, and Patagonia. It’s the kind of wardrobe you’d spend a fortune building new, at a fraction of the price.

The woman and family-owned business actively supports other local businesses, and through a partnership with Aurora Commons, donates unsold items to those in need. Consignment is available by appointment.

Cherry Consignment is here to make it easy for you to buy and sell quality, affordable clothing, jewelry, purses, and shoes. Fresh inventory is added daily, no appointment is required for drop-off consignments (consignors receive 40% of the sale price), and unsold items are donated rather than landfilled.

Owner Nyla co-founded The Ruby Room, a nonprofit that provides low-income students with free prom dresses. Your secondhand wardrobe refresh is quietly helping someone else have their night.

Price Range: $$–$$$

Simple & Just is the kind of thrift store that punches well above its boutique size. As a nonprofit, it channels all proceeds toward organizations in the Pacific Northwest that support survivors of sexual exploitation. When you find a designer jacket for a handful of dollars, someone is gaining access to mental health services, employment opportunities, or safe housing.

Their in-house Athena brand gives at-risk youth the chance to earn income by creating jewelry and homewares through skills training programs, and those items are sold directly in-store with 100% of proceeds going to the artisans. Tucked into the Ballard Avenue Historic District a block from the year-round Sunday Farmers Market, it’s worth building a whole Saturday morning around.

Price Range: $–$$$

The Assistance League of Seattle Thrift Shop removes some of the barriers to education for disadvantaged, at-risk students, and your secondhand haul is a direct part of that. When shoppers purchase gently-used clothing, art, and housewares, they’re helping clothe around 3,500 school children each year and funding college scholarships and summer camp programs across the city.

The clean, well-organized Wallingford store is open Thursday through Saturday. If you can’t get there in person, you can also browse their selection on eBay or Poshmark (these are affiliate links).

Price Range: $–$$

Two Big Blondes has been filling a genuine gap in the Seattle secondhand market since 1997: a high-quality consignment store dedicated entirely to plus-size shoppers. With more than 10,000 items (clothing sizes 14 and up, shoes size 8 and up) rotating through at any time, ranging from casual basics to special occasion dresses, it’s the kind of store that makes people say, upon walking in, “I’m so glad you exist.”

The Central District store also donates consigned items that don’t sell to the Seattle Women’s Assistance Fund, putting surplus inventory to work for low-income and homeless residents across the city. Items are priced at 50–75% off retail, with two sale rooms offering deeper discounts. Consignment is available by walk-in Fridays and Saturdays, or by appointment Tuesday through Thursday.

Price Range: $$–$$$

With multiple thrift stores in Seattle, Lucky Vintage makes it easy for Seattleites to take a trip to yesteryear to fill their wardrobes with dresses, tops, bottoms, jumpsuits, loungewear, t-shirts, accessories, footwear, outerwear, evening wear, and designer pieces.

They stock vintage pieces for both men and women, mostly from the 1970s and ’80s, with occasional finds from as early as the 1920s and ’30s. They’re strict about it too, only buying pieces that are at least 20 years old. No appointment needed for a browse, though selling is available only at their University District location.

Price Range: $–$

For streetwear, check out the thrift shop in Seattle owned by Lucky Dog. Between their bulldog mascot Squish who frequented their Greenwood store (now closed) and the fact that Macklemore himself has browsed the racks, they’ve earned their status as the quintessential Seattle streetwear thrift.

Find hype pieces and sneakers from Nike, Supreme, Anti Social Social Club, Carhartt, Kappa, and Stussy. It’s the kind of rack you’d find at a resale boutique, at thrift prices. They buy, sell, and trade.

Price Range: $–$$$

If you embrace the slow thrift experience, this one’s right up your alley. With a sprawling 30,000 square foot space, Ballard Consignment Store is one of the top furniture thrift stores in Washington state, not just Seattle.

Block out your calendar to give due attention to their range of unique, edgy decor, furniture, rugs, art, barware, trinkets, and other Mid-Century and vintage treasures. Everything is high quality at low prices, and a large furniture delivery service makes sustainably furnishing your home genuinely effortless. Consignment by appointment.

Price Range: $$–$$$$

Bon Voyage Vintage is a family-run Pioneer Square shop where you can score vintage clothing from the 1950s through 1990s alongside locally designed clothes and handmade items. The prices are refreshingly low relative to the rarity of the pieces, there’s usually something playing on the speakers worth Shazam-ing, and the staff are helpful whether you’re shopping, browsing, or just sheltering from the rain.

Plus-size options (a rarity in the vintage world) appear regularly in the mix, and the shop’s Instagram feed is one of the better follows in the Seattle secondhand scene. Trading and selling are available by appointment.

Price Range: $$–$$$

For the best thrift shopping in Seattle, Fremont Vintage Mall is a must-stop on your treasure hunt. This one-stop collective curates vintage and mid-century furniture, antiques, collectibles, art, records, clothing, memorabilia, and accessories under one roof, with products from local designers thrown in for good measure.

Fremont is already one of Seattle’s most walkable and characterful neighborhoods (home to the Fremont Troll, the Center of the Universe, and a life-size rocket ship bolted to a storefront), and this shop fits the vibe perfectly.

Price Range: $–$$$$

Seattle has long prided itself on being a late-night city in a state that rolls up its sidewalks early, and Late Night Vintage Mall is putting its money where its mouth is. Open from noon until midnight daily, this multi-vendor Capitol Hill mall was founded by Jesus McCloskey as a deliberate answer to the neighborhood’s missing late-night scene, and it worked.

Shoppers browse jerseys, Carhartt jackets, vintage graphic tees, and curated housewares while hip-hop plays loud enough to feel, and someone in the back is competing on a Pop-A-Shot arcade machine. The collective is home to dozens of independent vendors, each with their own curation, so the mix ranges from $15 vintage tees to rare finds from the early decades. There are now two locations in the city (the original spot at 517 E Pike and a second in the University District), which makes Late Night Vintage Mall something of a Seattle institution in the making.
