2ND Time Around

June 1, 2013
What a surprising find on a late Saturday afternoon. Clearly, I must admit in the past 8 weeks I have definitely become a consignment shopping «Slor»… I’ll let you figure that word out. LOL
With that said, I was overjoyed & elated to discover the store was open until 7 p.m. on Saturday and is even open on Sunday. WooHoo! Most consignment boutiques close around 5 p.m. on Saturday & are not open on Sunday in this area of South Jersey. So, this place gets major kudos just for their hours.
Other things that made a great impression were the well organized, clean and retail feel of this shop. Each item could be found in the corresponding sizes which were all well marked. In addition, there was a wall chart indicating the cost of items based on the color of the price tag. Clever & simplistic.
So, let’s talk about the marketing of this store. Catchy name, retail like setting and their shopping bag is actually a bag that has the store name, telephone number and website on it. You might be thinking that’s not a big deal. But on the contrary, all but one of the several consignment shops I have visited put purchased items in a major retail bag or anything they have lying around. They set a precedence when you walk through the door with the retail look and feel, the quality mix of second hand pieces and items that still had the original tags and followed it all the way through with the bag that goes with you out the door.
My belief is … quality in & quality out.
Definitely will return to this fantastic consignment shop with fair prices and an enjoyable shopping exeprience.
