What To Know About Consignment
Do you have a lot of gently-used designer-label kids’ clothing and toys at home? How about popular books and videos your kids took good care of and have outgrown?
If you have high-quality children’s items taking up space at home, consider consigning them.
We Know Which Consignment Items Will Sell
Our customers bring us really high-quality items that stay in demand. Think of classic children’s books, games, and toys, especially favorites from Fisher-Price, Radio Flyer, PlaySkool, and other major brands.
Board games like Monopoly, Chutes and Ladders, and Sorry! never go out of style.
Our Consignment Rules Focus on Safety, Complete Parts, and Cleanliness
We strive to keep inventory that’s fresh, clean, fashionable, and as close to new as possible.
We check every item brought in for consignment to ensure it’s clean, free of any defects (rips, tears, stains), and has all the parts. (Yes, we do put together a lot of puzzles and furniture!)
Bring in items for consignment that you would look for when you’re shopping. We greatly appreciate receiving them in sturdy bags or boxes with your name labeled on the outside.
Here are a few guidelines for consignment:
| For Clothes/Shoes: | For Equipment/Furniture/Toys |
| Must be freshly laundered | Must be clean |
| No rips, tears, or pilling | Must include all parts |
| No missing buttons | No jagged or sharp edges |
| No broken zippers | Must meet current government safety standards |
| No stains |
Is Resale/Consignment Worth the Effort?
For many people, reselling their kids’ items is 100% worth the effort – especially when they have items that have been gently-used or not used at all.
Our customers are typically long-term ones. Many shopped here for their own kids, consigned with us, and now shop for grandchildren and other young family members. They trust us to keep high-quality inventory.
Our customers are busy people with little time to review online ads or visit yard sales. They may not be entirely comfortable meeting sellers in person. In contrast, our shop is located in a popular shopping plaza, with plenty of parking.
Lastly, we’ve been in business for nearly two decades. We’re well-known in the community and have received several “Best Of” listings from places like Macaroni Kid (formerly Hulafrog).
