Once Upon A Child

Be careful reselling goods, here. If you come one day late, you forfeit all of your belongings and get a reduced amount back.

This rating is only in regards to being a shopper, as I haven’t had any experience yet in regards to trying to sell items here. Upon walking in, the store is quite small, the aisles are very close to each other, I’d be afraid to come in here with small children or even pushing a stroller, as you can barely get around people if you need to, even on foot. On top of each aisle are all the strollers, rock n plays, etc. so don’t forget to look up!
That being said, the place is well-​stocked with items, and all seemingly in great used condition. I’ve been here a few times now, and always find a few items I end up purchasing. The best deal was for a graco stroller that normally goes for $ 100, we got for $ 40. As far as clothing, I found several Halo sleep sacks, that normally retail for $ 20 new, and we got for $ 6.50 used. They also have plenty of cute outfits, arranged by size. Again, as examples, they had fleece sleep & play outfits for newborns for only ~$ 3 – 4, and some clearance items for only $ 1. The items all smell very fresh/​clean, likely recently laundered. This place seems to have clothes for kids of all sizes.
Contrary to other reviews, the staff seemed more in their 20’s or later, I haven’t come across any teens. That being said, they mostly stay behind the counter, and don’t do much other than check out, just FYI.
PSA: Make sure you ask them for a stamps card. I spent $ 50 the first visit, and nobody told me anything about a points card, sadness! The second visit, someone else told us about it. You get 1 stamp for every $ 10 you spend. Once you get 20 stamps you get 20% off your next purchase. It seems that sometimes they have special days too, like double stamps days.

I found a coupon, right here on Unilocal for $ 10 off a $ 50 purchase, and the owner would not accept it. They flat out said they will be trying to take down the coupon, so I’ll be taking my business to the Canton store.

A recent change in management has meant that store inventory is better organized than it used to be so the buying/​buyer experience is better. Quality of sales & checkout help is variable. Often it is a young woman who is not well versed in the importance of cheerful efficient customer service.
But you won’t go here for the service so much as the price right?
Sellers Beware: for all the clothes that I brought in to sell a number of times, roughly ¹⁄₃ was rejected and I was offered so little payment for the remainder they agreed to take that I surmised I could have perhaps faired better in a garage sale or a Mom-​to-​Mom sale… which I participate in from time to time. You will not get much if you’re selling your kids outgrown goods.
Quality of clothing varies although I will admit my tastes are high (I like Mini Boden, Hanna Andersoon, baby Lu Lu, Catamini, Crew Cuts, etc.) so I’m harder to please.

2 bad reviews from people trying to sell here… I haven’t sold here so I can’t rate that part of this store. As for buying, we had an excellent experience. By luck, we arrived on a day when they were having a progression sale and we got 70% off items marked with a certain color. So we got about $ 40 (marked price) worth of items for under $ 8! The have a huuuuge amount of items mostly clothing. Yes it’s cramped and a bit hard to get around but the vast selection makes it worth it.

Don’t bother. Don’t waste you time here. Not only is the shop a complete mess and poorly organized, the staff is full of apathetic incompetant teenagers. They did not outline how the business worked and upon dropping off items to be resold and when I returned curtly told me I didn’t understand. I was treated horribly and when I asked to talk to a manager they told me that the manager was too busy to talk to me. I hope this place goes out of business. I have never been so insulted and angry when I left a business. Never go here.
