Once Upon A Child

If you are buying, the prices are excellent! I shop here a lot for my kids. Lots and lots of clothing and they are constantly getting new merchandise in, so you can literally go every week to find new items. Overall, they are fairly organized. The only area that is not are there shoe bins. You won’t get a lot of money if you sell, as they literally start prices from $ 1.50 when they sell items. But if you were planning on donating them to Goodwill, a little money is better than none.

This is a second hand store that only carries kid’s clothes which makes this business just brilliant!
I came here usually to purchase large baby items and once again here I am for dance items for both my kiddos. A dance parent recommended for me to come here and purchase my kid’s both tap and ballet shoes at a more reasonable price since I had to purchase 4 pairs of shoes in total. Now they might not have EVERYTHING you may be in search for but if you do it saves you quite some bucks!
The staff is kind and is willing to help even if they try to look for it in the non displayed inventory if you tell them what specific item you are searching for.
I do like that even though their items are used, they are in great condition and for the price you honestly cannot complain. The low prices allow me to leave with filled bags more than I would at the mall.

Their website does not give current updates of what they are accepting to buy. I have come here two different seasons and wasted my time. Good thing one thing is going for them– pretty efficient. Call before you come to see how long wait is to sell!

Horrible horrible horrible! Took FOREVER to sort through my items to be sold. They couldn’t give me an estimate on wait time. Waited nearly 45 min! The restroom was the only available «fitting room» which smelled of urine! Disgusting! It’s not worth the time and screaming kids running around. I’ll just keep donating my kids clothes.

Super great deals on clothes and gear. I found a new in box Ergobaby Carrier with infant insert for $ 75.
They have swings, books, bouncers, accessories and of course lots of clothes. The only thing I wish they would do is have a designer rack like Kid to Kid does.
I would agree with another reviewer that the store does smell a bit musty but doesn’t everyone wash their clothes before wearing them anyway?

Great customer service. They took their time going through my items, and made a fair offer. Huge selection of reasonably priced kids/​baby clothes and items. Love it!

Great prices and full of nice kid clothes. They even buy clothes from you right there you don’t have to wait for your items to be sold to get your money. I have shopped at many resale stores and this is one of the best ones. I can’t wait to go back!

Coming in the place smells a little funny. Just smells like clothes that been sitting in a drawer for a long while. But other than that, they got a lot of good selection for cheap for kids and baby clothing. Definitely worth the price, when all you gotta do is go home and wash!

I bought approximately$ 120 worth of clothes for my niece and three small nephews, and it was so worth it. I do think that some of the clothes should be marked down a little bit more, but I saw Ralph Lauren polo shirts for$ 8.00. Since I was shopping for 4 toddlers, I only bought clothes$ 5.50 to $ 2.50. I love this place.

i have only been here once so far but when i went i had a great experiencen they were sonice and everything there was very reasonably priced ! thank you

First time visit = last time visit. I am a huge fan of thrift & resale shops but I’ve never felt so uncomfortable inside a store. All of the employees are rude. I came in hoping to trade in my NB clothes for some 3 – 6 month clothes. They told me that they couldn’t take most of my stuff before even looking at it first. Most of the things I had were brand spanking new! Tags and all! My son just grew out of NB way too fast and some of the things I had were jackets that he never wore (due to the mild winter) I asked politely if they’d at least look and with a little persistence they did. Turned out they didn’t want to take everything, which was completely fine with me — but when I asked about donating them — the lady said, «well, you can put the clothes outside by the trashcan»!!! Are you kidding me?! A lot of money went into purchasing the clothes I had and most were BRAND NEW… did she really think I was going to throw them away? I want them to go to someone who needs them, not the dump! Holy crap! I’m rambling now but that store really needs reconsider their staff!

I’ve been going here for years. I love it and I think they offer fair prices for both their purchasing as well as resale. Sorry the other lady had issues with this store. I would not recommend trying to sell any items of your children’s where their is excessive sentimental value. No one will be able to offer the same value as the parents when it comes to things like that. They resale at half of retail and then offer the seller half of that… which is more than I’d get if I donated to Goodwill and I can use it for swapping out clothes as well.

I give once upon a child no stars. My first visit I tried to sell them my gently used in great condition girl items. They didn’t appreciate my things. The items were my first kids things, I was emotionally attached. My second visit thought maybe I could swap my girl stuff for boy stuff. That didn’t work out. My third visit was the worst confirmed all my thoughts from the previous visits. They are pathetic. I saved the boxes of the items I wanted to sell. Wheels were clean. The stuff was in better than new condition. Their offer sucked but I sold to them. While I waited for 45 minutes, Every time I walked by the counter the staff was talking amongst themselves.. They gossiped about every customer, that were there to sell. It was old to sit back and watch after my previous business. Great place to buy, selling to them not so good. After my last visit decided no more ever. Had a garage sale with everything they had no interest in. Made 225.00
