HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

by moe106 at Citysearch

I have shopped at Dannie Duluth since the store first opened years ago. It's fun to shop in a store with brand name clothes for such cheap prices. I have spent my time in other 2nd hand stores and find I leave feeling dirty after touching the used clothing and have even found my allergies worsen to the point where I had to leave because I was sneezing so badly. This is part of the reason I like to shop at Dannie Duluth - it feels like all the articles are new, and in good condition, and the store is clean and organized. I have also consigned items at Dannie Duluth and was happy with my payment.... used it to shop again at the store! If you are looking for a fun place to shop then I highly recommend Dannie Duluth.

Terrible Place to do business

by mmbskt at Citysearch

I brought in a dooney purse on consignment, I made it clear that this purse was not to be sold under 150.00 because it was valued at 400.00. She agreed, I received a check for almost nothing, when I called the owner she was rude,Yelled at me for questing her, then she hung up on me. She charged me .75 to issue a check... Never told about that either!! Then she told me I wasn't allowed back in her store!!! WOW!! What a nightmare, This is the 1st time I ever sold anything!! I will never be back this lady is a cheat and lier, Please don't trust her!!!! Don't shop at her store....

• Pros: parking
• Cons: poor,rude,terrible service,lies

Decent Clothes, Terrible Owner

by smcbride218 at Citysearch

I have never been so appalled at the level of service I received at a store. The owner, Danielle Jelinski, seems to think because she sells used Chanel that she is better than those who would purchase it. Don't even bother trying something on, she'll chase you out of the dressing room, don't waste your time asking questions for she will belittle you, and don't shop there to begin with... chances are an encounter with her will ruin you day. The service here leaves you feeling rushed, upset, "less than", like you did something wrong, and flat out violated. I don't know how she stays in business! It's as if the wicked witch of the west landed in Duluth's East Hillside. I know she must ride a broom home at night. Don't bother shopping here anytime soon!

• Pros: Parking available
• Cons: Poor, rude, snotty service

Owner is a royal b***h

by crazycatlady54880 at Citysearch

This was my second time today shopping there. It was also the second time we were told at quarter of six they were closing in ten minutes. At five til, we were getting the evil eye from the owner and employee.

When we checked out, I told the owner I too had owned a business and when customers were shopping it was rude to tell them to leave, I don't care what time it is. She said it was presumptive of me to expect her to stay, and she had an appointment. She told me she had a fabulous business and was very successful, told me to leave, and never come in again, No worries you witch, I never will and neither will anyone else I know. She sells used rags for heavens sake, not Manolo B's at retail. Her snobby B***h attitude does not cut it for me. She has some issues and they have nothing to do with retailing.

• Cons: horrendous place to shop, only a star or i can't post

UNETHICAL, INSULTING, DISHONEST, BAIT AND SWITCH. INSULT TO GOOD CONSIGNMENT SHOPS.

by mbbremer at Citysearch

Dannie of Dannie Duluth misrepresented a sale of consignment furniture to me. When I called her on it she insulted me and said she never stated the claim she made to me regarding the purchase. I bought a china cabinet (or so I thought) and it ended up being the top half of a china cabinet being passed off as a sideboard. After discussing the matter with her, putting up with her condesending attitude and insults, she agreed to credit the purchase. She did not issue the credit. Also, she stated that I was not to ever come into her shop again. This, after being a customer for 4 years. If it is not Dannie's way, it is no way.

Also, I owned a consignment shop in another state 15 years ago and know the business. She is very unethical and I would certainly never give her anything to consign. She gives cuts at random without a policy and the consigners never know exactly what they are being paid for. I totally agree with bgoodrich in her statement in 2007, Dannie is not to be trusted by consigners.

Make sure you do not pay her until you pick up the merchandisel. And, never expect a refund. She states that there are no refunds, but legally she must give you some type of credit. This one will end up in Court, I am sure!

BEWARE!!!!!!! BEWARE!!!!!!!! BEWARE!!!!!!!

• Pros: Cheap prices for customers on clothes (sometimes)
• Cons: A nightmare to deal with, consign or try to get a refund or credit. Also, makes false statements about refunds.

Best Consignment shop

by babylips at Citysearch

I am a frequent shopper of Dannie Duluth and have been for years and I love the store! I always find good items when i shop in there. I also consign there and make good money for my items. The store is always clean and the music is relaxing. I know the clothes there are inspected carefully for stains, spots or any flaws and are marked on the tag if there is a problem with them. I also know she carries expensive high end cloths from Californea such as Escada, Worth, Armani an many more name brands as well as normal brands from local stores, but at better prices than the mall or the retail store they came from. I am a regular at Dannie Duluth along with sveeral other people I know who shop there weekly and are happy with there clothes they buy and the money they are able to save! Also many people compliment the clothing that i get from there when i wear it which makes me feel great to let them know I got it at Dannie Duluth.

• Pros: There is always new great clothes to choose from. and there is parking usually in back of the store and the music is relaxing.

Fun Shopping!

by jennifer1971 at Citysearch

I have a wardrobe of clothes from Dannie-Duluth. It never fails, when I am wearing an article of clothing from this store I receive a compliment. I enjoy shopping at Dannie-Duluth, the store is clean, items are easy to browse through and I find the owner to be knowledgeable, helpful and courteous.

BEWARE!!!

by bgoodrich at Citysearch

This is not an honest vendor. I found a jacket in her shop with a stain on it. It was originally marked $125 and it was 1/2 off. Because of the stain, she agreed to have it dry cleaned and, if the stain came off, I would pay her for the cleaning and $62.50 for the jacket. She was going to call me when it returned from the cleaners. I didn't hear from her so I visited her shop and found the jacket back on display priced at $150! She acknowledged that we had made an arrangement but that the deal was off and it was now $150. She was insulting and abusive and said I could either pay the price or leave her store.

IF YOU SELL THINGS ON CONSIGNMENT, it is vital to have a trustworthy vendor. You are forced to take their word for the price they get for your things. Would you trust this woman? I wonder if the person consigning the above jacket was told that it sold for $62.50 (less the cost of having it cleaned), $150 or that it didn't sell at all because of the stain. If that was your jacket, what would you think?

Once a person shows their true colors...there is no turning back.
