    Their employees have told me it's because they have multiple ppl pricing. Two identical items like candle sticks: one is $2.10 and the one next to it/it's mate is $6.99. Two different ppl priced them. Some of the employees don't know values of items. But in my area for the most part, you NEVER find antiques or even high quality items. Mostlyl outdated junk. Over priced. There are a lot of shoppers/resellers picking them... but I think they are also putting those good items in their ebay stores to sell. They seem to have a way of knowing the real valuable items. Very odd.

    From a former Goodwill employee. I was in the wares dept. We have two employees doing the pricing therefore 2 opinions on what something is worth. Also the store manager will sometimes say you're pricing to low. Our Goodwills lowest price on wares is 3.99. ridiculous!

      It's good to keep in mind that the pricing is done by different employees. Goodwill employs those who might not otherwise find employment elsewhere. They might not have any job experience and are trained on site. It's not a perfect system.

      It's really not fair to judge an entire organization based on 1 or 2 experiences. They're all managed individually, just like anywhere else that has employees. Some managers are great, and some aren't.
      My husband worked for Goodwill for 10 years, and I learned a lot about the organization. He was the IT Director and helped all of the stores in our area. All employees started about making $16/hr. and receive raises regularly. There were more than a few employees who used to be homeless who worked their way up to management and even upper management. I know them personally.

      I'm not sure why it's a problem to not be able to buy something that doesn't have a price on it. MANY people swap price tags in order to try to pay less for items. So, the items without a tag have to get repriced. It's just part of their protocol.
