DIVERSITY Men's and Women's Consignment

Best Vintage shopping experience, ever. Stumbled on this shop by accident while visiting Jamaica Plain. The selection of clothes, the music and the VERY nice and friendly staff made for an awesome experience. Turned out it was their 5 year anniversary so everything was 15% off, which was already great but then they also have ‘regular’ discounts based on how long an item has been on their racks. These still counted even with the 15% discount for their anniversary. I can keep typing because we’re just so happy with the experience. Thank you guys! Keep it up.

my twin and i visited in november of last year after i had my check up appointment at longwood surgery which was just conveniently nearby. two floors of vintage clothing, records, and rock & roll paraphernalia. i love the grunge nostalgic feel of the basement level, there’s an old tv with vhs films playing on it & they’ve got a killer gaming setup of which i can pop in a tony hawk pro skater game and relive my glorious failed gameplay! very fun, i’ll definitely swing back here with my friends more this summer

amazing environment here! I've now been here twice and had a really fun time both times I've been. I absolutely recommend, the prices are reasonable for thrift/consignment AND there's so many beautiful handmade items in store. location also has parking lot in the back which I've made use of. thanks so much!! I will absolutely return

I have been going to Diversity for a couple years and used to recommend it to everyone. After my last experience, I can’t recommend. The owner, whose name is Brandon I believe, helped me when I came in. My visit started off rough as he said he could not find my consignment account despite recognizing me from consigning other times. He got me set up with a new account but not all of the clothes he took were added to my new consigner account. I tried calling and asking about it the very day because a sweater that was very special to me was not on my account and now I was worried what else might not be on my item list. I had to call back several times for the problem to be solved because no one would return my calls. Unfortunately, my dear sweater was sold almost immediately for way less than I was comfortable with, but because it was not on my account I could not flag the selling price as an issue for me so the item could be pulled off the floor. Again, the owner helped me when I came in. He told me that at the end of my consigning period they will hold the clothes for 6 months in the back. When I called to pick up my things they told me that was not the case. The items stay on the floor and the store keeps the full profit after the consignment period. This fully contradicts what’s the owner said to me. I remember specifically asking him to clarify that they pull the clothes off the fooor and hold them for us consigners because that seemed unbelievable. Another thing he got wrong was my consignment pickup date, apparently the date he wrote for me was wrong and my pickup date was earlier than what he gave me. Despite messing up my account himself I was never called by the owner to be reassured that all the other items he took were actually added to my account so that I will be paid should they sell. You might as well donate your items to a shelter because Diversity will not make sure you are properly cared for and paid for the items they take. Seriously disappointed in the service and the owner.

I was visiting my daughter and her partner and had some unexpected time to myself before a meeting at Nero’s Coffee Shop. My colleague got stuck in traffic, so I sat outside doing a bit of work — it was lovely. I wasn’t quite ready to go home afterward, but the weather had turned cooler, and I was wearing a sleeveless dress. I wandered into Diversity Consignment just looking for “a little something” to throw on — and found a beautiful Madewell jean jacket for only $38. It fit perfectly. The gentleman behind the counter was so kind. I was already buying the jacket, but he smiled and said, “It’s going to look amazing with your outfit.” He was right — and that extra kindness really stayed with me. I also watched him offer to hold a package for an older woman going downstairs, which made the space feel even more welcoming and community-centered. The whole experience at Diversity was wonderful — warm, unpretentious, and full of small, human touches. I’m so glad I stopped in.

Love this place so much!! It has a great vibe and the clothes are fairly priced especially if they’ve been hanging out for a bit! They also have a lot of cool community events

This is a great store. Downstairs is for music lovers with a well-curated selection of vinyl and music-related items. Upstairs is a boutique lover's dream. The staff is very warm and friendly. Highly recommended.

I have loved this store since they opened. 100% embracing the idea of up cycling/recycling and supporting local makers. I am quite disappointed in the change in policy where Diversity is no longer issuing Store credit in exchange of clothing/Wearables that they would accept. I’m hopeful that that will change Again.
