Consign with us

By consigning your gently used children's clothing, books, and accessories and new toys, you are not only helping the environment by extending their life -- you're also giving them a chance to be loved and used by another family.

How To Consign With Us

Drop-Off Consignment

You can drop off a maximum of 40 items per week during store hours (Monday to Saturday between 10 am and 6 pm) for us to review later. Any items we don’t feel we can sell will be responsibly recycled on your behalf. Please bring items in a bag you don’t mind leaving behind.

By Appointment Consignment

If you prefer to have items that we can’t sell returned to you, you can schedule an appointment for us to review your items while you wait. Please call in advance to schedule an appointment.

I'm on the fence ... should I bring it in?

We are very selective with the items we are able to accept. This is so we can offer the highest-quality inventory possible to you, our customers! A good rule of thumb is if you wouldn't purchase an item in its current condition, we likely won't accept it for resale.

We accept freshly washed, wrinkle-free, gently worn children's clothing, shoes, and accessories sizes newborn through 12. All items must be in excellent condition with no flaws. If items require extra attention (steaming, lint rolling, etc.) before being put out for sale, we will deduct a small cleaning fee from your account.

Payments

Consignors receive 40% of an item’s selling price. You can collect on your account at any time. There is a $1 monthly fee, charged to your account, for the Consignor Access service to check the status of your account online. You can also call, email, or contact us on social media to check your account. If an item has not sold for over 12 months, it becomes store-owned inventory. If an account is inactive for 24 months, any outstanding balance is forfeited.

We set prices based on item type, brand, estimated retail price, and historical knowledge. We may discount prices at any time for any reason.

Questions? Contact us!
  • How and when are consignors paid?

    Consignors are paid 40% of an item's selling price after it sells. The money is posted to the consignor's account and can be collected at any time. It is up to the consignor to keep track of their account. We do not automatically send checks.

  • Why do you take clothing on a seasonal basis?

    We pride ourselves in keeping our merchandise up to date and desirable. We also don't have the storage space to keep out of season items!

  • How do you set the price for an item?

    We determine prices based on the brand of the item, the item type, whether the item is new with tags or used, and, in the case of clothing, the size.

  • What do you do with the items that don't sell?

    We have partnered with Helpsy, a certified B Corp, to responsibly recycle the items we cannot sell. 

  • How do you set the price for an item?

    We determine prices based on the brand of the item, the item type, whether the item is new with tags or used, and, in the case of clothing, the size.

Local supplier commitment

One of the best things about the consignment business model is that it returns value directly to our consignors, almost all of whom are local parents in Easton and the surrounding towns. What's more, that value is more likely to stay within the local community, which supports our goal of vibrant, self-sufficient local economies.

To that end, we have made a formal commitment to supply the bulk of our inventory (at least 50% of expenses) from local, independent suppliers. The vast majority of our inventory is already supplied by local consignors, but we will also extend this commitment to choosing local suppliers for our other inventory (like new toys, gifts, and handmade products) whenever possible.
