About this app

ShopGoodwill mobile app is the premier location for finding hidden treasures within Goodwills across the country. It’s the first e-commerce platform that has been created, owned, and operated by a non-profit organization. Supporting over 130 Goodwill organizations, ShopGoodwill has unique finds like fashion, home goods, technology, jewellery, collectibles and more that you can search through from the comfort of your home. While on the site, you have the option of browsing specific categories, participating in auctions, using our “Buy it Now” feature, as well as checking out our 1 cent shipping items. When you shop with ShopGoodwill, you’re helping fund our mission of providing job training and placement services to thousands of people. Each item’s final sale price goes back into the local Goodwill that listed the item, and around 85 cents of every dollar go back into funding our mission, so this means your purchases are making a difference in local communities throughout the country.

Ratings and reviews

The developer and the 'team' involved with running this app have to be severely mentally handicapped, the app never works as it should. Clicking on an item and attempting to return to the previous screen turns into a nightmare of endless loading of the previous screen. Replacing the developer and team with an elementary school student would definitely improve the chance that one day the functionality of the app would improve.

I've been waiting for years for the developers to sort out some obvious bugs and horrible choices made in the design of this app. The 2-second auto scroll on posting pics is torture. When you select a number of filters or change the sort option, you better not click on a post picture to take a closer look at that thing you might spend money on; for if you do, when returning to your filtered or sorted list, you will find all filters and sorting has been reset. Last update fixed nothing, worse.

Shipping is ridiculous, you have to add between $15 to $20 extra for shipping and handling purposes on top of the cost of the item you want, they are ripping you off, that without mentioning the ghost bidding just to pump up prices of a decent item. To be honest is better to buy at a pawn shop or any other retailer where you at least have the return option. Not worth it.
