Great consignment shop in Cockeysville. The place is full of items, but the staff is organized and helpful. We sold several things– 2 car seats, double stroller, etc and received a check in a very timely manner with all of the items clearly listed with the sold price. Recently tried the newer kids consignment shop a few doors down and they are not nearly as organized or helpful. Tried But True is THE best place to go in Cockeysville if you have kids clothing to sell!

I shopped here years ago and was a fan. A few weeks ago when I happened to be in the area, I returned and was not disappointed. I scooped up some great items for boys and girls in great condition.
Pros: A lot of quality brands (i.e. Gap, L.L. Bean, Nautica, Pedi Peds); no walmart, target or old navy stuff (I have nothing against those brands, they just don’t hold up well for consignment). The staff was friendly and very helpful. Although the shop is small, there is a lot of clothes to choose from and everything is organized well. Parking is available behind the shop along the small side street behind the shop.
Cons: As mentioned, the inside of the shop is a tight fit, not much room to move around. Because of this, do NOT bring your child with you –shopping childless is not a con however ;-). No fault to the shop, but the turn getting back on York Road is scary, there is a hill and it is hard to see when pulling back out into traffic.

I went to this consignment shop to buy various things for an infant. I was surprised that the store had some maternity clothes as well. However, the store felt crowded, and the clothes looked like it had all seen extensive wear. They did have some inexpensive baby shoes though.
