We are not your typical consignment OR resale store!
We offer you the best of both worlds:
Consignment AND Resale!
Get Cash Buyout or Store Credit Trade Upfront
We buy items directly from you so you get Cash or Store Credit paid up-front. No more waiting for your items to sell to get your money.
We go through the items you bring in and will give you an offer for what we want to buy. You have the option to accept or decline our offer.
Due to the popularity of our cash buyouts, please note there may be times when we are not buying certain items. We have limited storage space and only accept cash buyouts as our inventory level permits.
Please give us a call if you have any questions.
CONSIGNMENTS AND STORE CREDIT TRADES ARE ALWAYS ACCEPTED!
How We Figure Our Cash Buyout and Store Credit Trade Amounts
For clothing, we pay based on season, name-brand labels, size and supply/demand.
Resale pricing of clothing is significantly less than 50% of new retail prices with end of season sales taken into account.
Resale pricing for nursery and kid’s furniture, baby bedding, baby gear, accessories and toys are all based on condition, name brand and supply/demand and are typically 25-50% of new retail prices.
Cash Buyout offers are based on approximately 10% to 30% of these values. Payout is by check if over $25.
Store Credit Trade offers are 50% more than a Cash Buyout offer. Trade offers are loaded on to your VIP Reward Club Card which allows you to shop with us anytime AND still receive exciting VIP rewards, special savings and discounts! And if you don't already have a VIP Reward Club Card, we can get you all set up quick as a wink!
The real benefit to all this is that you get cash in your hand or trade-out merchandise with just a little bit of work on your part.
You eliminate wasted time and money with sitting in the hot sun at a yard sale, and not to mention all the hassles involved trying to prep and sell your items at the “do-everything-yourself seasonal sales” popping up around town. And if you sell items online, like Craigslist, we won’t even mention the fact that you are putting you and your family’s safety at great risk by dealing with complete strangers in your home or meeting them in a parking lot somewhere!
How Our Consignments Work
Consignment normally gives you more cash, but you need to wait for your items to sell to receive any money.
Consignment terms are for a minimum of 60 days up to 90 days depending when your items arrive in our store and are processed for sale.
Consignment terms begin on the first day of the month AFTER your items are placed on our sales floor. This means extra selling days for your items at their regular price before being marked down!
After 30 days, unsold items are marked down 50%.
At consignment expiration, you have the option to pick up any unsold items or we can donate them for you. For your convenience, donation receipts are available upon request.
How You Get Paid On Consignments
You receive 40% of the final selling price for your items
Your payout will be in check if over $25.
Any money accumulated on your account can be loaded to your VIP Reward Club Card which allows your to purchase other items in our boutique at any time AND receive exciting VIP rewards, specials and discounts.
Funds are made available in your account three (3) business days after your items are sold.
You can check your available consignment balance online hereor you can just give us a call and we'll let you know what your available balance is.
We payout at any time! Why wait for a payout check in the mail once a month? It's your money, use it as you wish!

Clothing must be in EXCELLENT and NEARLY-NEW CONDITION and must not have any odors, rips, tears, or stains. Oxi-Clean and Palmolive Orange works wonders getting stains out. Simply dab a small amount on the stain and gently rub in with a soft brush (toothbrushes work great) and launder as usual. 1/2 cup white distilled vinegar added to the final laundry rinse will result in brighter and clearer clothing colors too.
All clothing must be wrinkle free, neatly folded or laying flat
Place items in a box, tote or basket to bring them in. We will transfer them to our own bins and return yours.
We DO NOT accept clothing in ANY plastic bags!
Place sets together if possible (please do not pin)
All clothing, bedding and fabric items must be freshly laundered and have all buttons, snaps and zippers in proper working order.
Furniture, Baby Equipment, Gear and Toys must be super-duper clean and be in working order with all original parts. Items requiring batteries should have them included. If you don't have working batteries included, we will charge your account $1.00 for each battery we must supply. Because all our sales are final, our customers need to make sure everything works properly before they leave our boutique. Without working batteries, customers will not buy your items!
