Schoola's prices are a joke. This is a great idea, but it's been executed by the wron person. You can see this in how the website is organized, how high their prices are, how many mislabeled items they have, and supposedly how they claim EVERYTHING is 69% or 70% off retail. Three of the 7 tops I purchased were mislabeled and were actually girls! Look at their prices, for used clothing most of the prices are outrageous! Charging $12-$30 for used clothing, some that are generic brands too. I bought about 5 tops from eBay for $15, free shipping. These 7 items would have cost me $61, but I got a coupon code and used some of the money they give you for signing up. They need to realize once an item is used it looses most of its retail value! They wanted $21 for a pair of used Levi's, proclaiming they were 70% off retail. What? A pair of Levi's are not $69, then I seen they have all Levis retailing at $69! New Levi's cost $15-$30 New(the ones like these, Walmart Levis). JC Penney or other department store charge $20 to $40, they retail for a little more & they're new! I bought a top for $16, later finding out that the "Bobbie Brooks" shirt was Dollar General brand, & it stated 70% off retail. Afterwards I found out that it was a Dollar General brand & they stated it retails at $52. More like $10 at Dollar General. This is ridiculously inaccurate, they're supposed retail prices are so off I can't believe I don't see more reviews stating so. I realize that about 40% goes to schools, but the prices should still NOT be that high! I won't be shopping there again unless they get reasonable prices! Also it took almost 3 weeks to ship my order.
