Pricing & Return Policy

Our mission is to keep stuff out of the landfill. That means pricing items so that they offer a more affordable option versus new. However, we also need to bring in enough revenue to cover our expenses (e.g., utilities, wages, property and equipment costs, etc.). As a 501(c)3 non-profit, we are not looking to make a profit, and any small profit we do make is reinvested in the organization to further our mission. We have shared our tax documentation to provide transparency and assurance of our operations.

 In general, we price items at 33% of retail/new, or in other words, 67% off retail/new.
 If it is brand new, the price is a bit higher
 If it is damaged or in rough shape, the price is a bit lower.
 If an item has been in the store for over a month, we start adjusting the price down and consider offers.
 Sometimes we get the price wrong. We encourage customers to find an item’s pricing online and share
it with us so we can determine if an adjustment can be made.
 We offer a 30-day return on anything you buy at Around Again (with receipt).
