Cornell Store Pop Up
We thank the Cornell Store for hosting our fall semester pop-up. We will be set up on the lower level of the Ho Plaza Cornell Store on:
Monday, September 16, 8:30 am - 6 pm
& Tuesday, September 17, 8:30 am - 5 pm
We will be bringing a load of vintage Cornell University t-shirts and sweatshirts and tons of general interest vintage pieces. We expect a great turnout, so arrive early to get the best selection!
It will be the perfect chance to collect a special school memento that is nostalgic and unique and to give it a new life. Please understand that supply is limited. Cornell items will be restocked while supplies last on Monday, but the selection of Cornell items may be depleted before Tuesday morning. Most pieces originate from the 1980's-early 2000's. With several, rare outliers, typical prices for Cornell items range from $30-150.
General interest (non-Cornell) vintage t-shirts, sweatshirts, sweaters, shirts, and pants will also be available for sale. One portable dressing room will be available for trying on items to ensure the perfect fit. Explore our website to get a feel for what else we offer. We will be restocking general vintage through the day Monday and again Tuesday morning.
Everyone is welcome: students, faculty, and the public!
All sales will be conducted through the Cornell Store. Cash, credit, and CornellCard are accepted. We thank them for hosting us! Due to the nature of the pop-up, all sales are final.
FAQ
I have my eye on something. What time should I get to the Cornell Store?
All items are first come, first serve.
The Cornell Store opens at 8:30 AM. A line may form before the doors open, around 8:20.
If you want to be one of the first ones in, be sure to gather on the lower level of the store.
Most advertised pieces will sell within the first hour.
I have an 8 AM class. What can I expect if I come later in the day?
The first hour that the store is open (8:30-9:30) usually has a rush of people on day 1. To be as fair as possible, we will not offer any pre-sale or holds.
By coming later in the morning, many of the advertised pieces and high-demand items may already be sold out. However, you will experience less crowding and still be able to shop some school pieces.
We will restock Cornell items while supplies last, and then we will restock with more general vintage items, like sports tees, sweatshirts, and assorted vintage fashion pieces throughout the rest of the day and at the beginning of day 2.
I can't make it to the pop up. Can I still shop the collection?
This is an in-person-only event. Unfortunately, there will be no items offered for pre-sale, and no items will be offered online before the event.
If there is something specific you are after, we suggest sending a proxy to arrive at the pop up early and purchase the item for you.
A small selection of items that fail to sell at the event may become available on our website later on.
Can I pay with CornellCard?
Yes, sales are performed through the Cornell Store, so CornellCard is a valid form of payment.
