Out of the Closet - Columbus

Nice second-hand establishment for a cause.Free HIV testing.Good vintage furniture finds.Large floor.Lots of clothes for a fair price. Not the best selection though.Free condoms at check out.

So many reasons to support this thrift shop! For starters, they're LGBTQ+ friendly and offer free HIV testing amongst other things. They really support the community and it's a beautiful thing to see. Secondly, the prices are reasonable. Some things might be marked up a bit more than you would expect but if you look closely, those items tend to be of high quality.. Like name brand items. Third, they keep the place really clean and organized. As with all thrift stores, you really need to dig around... but at least you know where to start depending on what you're looking for. Lastly, there's a free parking lot out back, which we all know is hard to find in the Short North. If you're someone that enjoys thrifting, add this spot to your list of places to check out.

I love stopping by a thrift store any time I'm visiting a new city. Out of the Closet is a pretty big one in downtown Columbus. They have a selection of men's, women's clothing, furniture, shoes, CDs, artwork and books.This thrift store is extraordinary in what they do! 96% of each dollar goes towards aiding in HIV care and supporting those suffering with it. They offer free on site HIV testing. There were around 10 young men waiting to get tested.I really liked some of the furniture pieces and artwork in this store, unfortunately it was too big to bring back on my flight home with me. My friend purchased around 12 CDs at $2 each. I would love some of them too, but I haven't had anything to play CDs on in so long.Out of the Closet is a thrift store that supports a wonderful cause. Stop by when you're in the area!

The employees at the store themselves are great. The selection is varied and the value is awesome. However I called customer service at this location to schedule a drop-off of a piece of furniture and was met with the rudest most condescending person on the planet. And got spoken down to for absolutely no reason.

Selection was great! There prices were amazing, very competitive and affordable for prices on each item! Staff was very friendly and I love the cause they're supporting!

Today Tony and I visited "Out of the Closet " thrift shop in the North Short Section of Columbus Ohio on North High Street.I love this thrift shop, great items, clean store, Covid Conscience and great prices plus FREE parking.Went looking for some shorts for this hiney...couldn't find any thing that for me.Tons of cool stuff plus free HIV testing!!!

This place was really recommended, but I was shocked to find that it was worse than goodwill (and I like most goodwills). The clothing was very overpriced and worn.

LGBT friendly. Been several times and haven't found good selection of men's clothing. Pharmacy and HIV testing on site.

I know thrift shops are a dime a dozen, but this one's different. It supports the Transgender community and offers free HIV testing and meds for those who may need it. I really loved that about this place and decided it was worth a visit. The place is a great size and has a decent selection of clothes, dishes, furniture and other items here to buy. I wasn't able to try anything on so I didn't buy any clothing but it was fun to shop here. They have free parking around the back and if I lived in Columbus, would probably shop here more often.If you have time and are in the area, go check it out. You never know what you may find!

Such a cool place I love it here so thankful they do free testing. Overall they make Columbus a better place for anyone who fucks.
