Two Trading Tigers

This store has always filled a need for me especially with comfortable travel clothes. But lately I have even been finding some new smaller items that are great too, like a great headband warmer that was just the right thickness, and very cute and a fair price. How can you go wrong with all that!
As with any consignment store, it is about changing their stock so it’s good to go into periodically. And they do have some nice houseware items as well.
I have always been greeted and treated nicely here and have been a customer for several years so was surprised at some of these ratings.

STAY AWAY from this consignment shop Two Trading Dragon. I was one of two in the shop and was shopping around for 30 mins with a pile of clothing in my arms. I was never greeted or asked if I needed a dressing room. And don’t even get me started with the prices. A Banana Republic skirt for $ 40 when that skirt is clearly from the 90’s. You are better off going to Goodwill or Value Village. How does this store stay in business??? I had to give one star because there isn’t an option for no stars.

I was really excited to check out this shop, but was thoroughly disgusted and disappointed by my experience.
The woman that I encountered (I’m guessing the owner) had a permanent snooty look on her face… and I wasn’t even greeted.
I looked around for about twenty minutes and wasn’t impressed by any of the merchandise… let alone the prices. I mean c’mon, you’ve listed your shop as used & consignment. I could go to a regular store and find something NEW for the same — if not a better price.
I’ll never be coming back and I’ll be sure to tell everyone I know that it’s not worth the trip.
I’m leaving 1 star only because I have to in order to post the review.

I go in almost weekly because there is always a cute jacket or gift item to find. Just last week, I bought a darling Country Santa that danced — my mom just loved it. Marlee and Cheri are always looking for the nicest clothes and furnishings — their greeting card selection is the best — bitchy and fun!

Several months ago I brought in an item to sell. They priced it at $ 30. At the end of the 3-​month consignment period, I went back to see if it had sold. It had not. I was going to take it back with me but the gal there assured me that it would sell soon, being as it was getting close to Christmas.
I went in there the other day & inquired about it. Without my knowledge, they had drastically reduced the price & sold it! My payout — $ 3. It would have been nice to have been notified first. Needless to say, I will not be bringing anything else to them to sell.

On this snowy day, we were the only customers in the store. What a great selection of consignment décor and clothing! My daughter bought an adorable embroidered jacket, and I had to resist a large framed print that I fell in love with.

Been in this store four or five times actively seeking to purchase, but have never been greeted, let alone approached for help, even when I’m the only customer in the store. Based on prices and appearances, the owner (s) are really proud of their merchandise, but I am not sure how they plan to move the inventory if they’re too high-​falutin’ to interact with a customer. My visit this week was my last; I was actually bumped aside by two employees who were merchandising (without an apology). I returned the item I wanted to the rack and went elsewhere.

I recently went to Two Trading Tigers for the first time and I am sad I just discovered it! I can’t believe I lived so close for several years and just now found it. I found some great deals on cute items. I got a little evening bag for $ 6, a shoulder bag for $ 5 and a very cute Shelli Segal top for $ 12. What finds!
It is obvious that the owner takes great care with her shop stocking with high quality, designer items in excellent condition and decorating the shop in an esthetically pleasing, cohesive manner. I have never seen such a visually appealing and organized consignment shop!
The owner was very pleasant with me. There is a great clearance rack at the front with reduced price items. There are several racks of women’s clothing, a shoe section, and even a children’s section. There are also some designer handbags.
Two Trading Tigers is not the shop for people looking for bottom of the barrel deals. This store has high quality items and for the most part they are on the higher side price-​wise to reflect the better products. If you’re looking for cheap used clothes go somewhere else!
I think being a selective buyer is a definite plus for a consignment shop and it’s evident the store is quite particular about what they carry.
I look forward to returning!

The lady that runs the shop is very rude. I tried to consign (because it’s a consignment shop!) and she said she was taking nothing (in a snooty tone) and when asked if she knew of any other shops in the area she acted like she was a consignment shop expert, but failed to give me any informations that was remotely useful.

Two Trading Tigers has a lot of nice home décor and a little furniture sometimes. They also have grown women’s clothing, accessories and shoes. A couple years ago I walked away with skirts from Trina Turk, Banana Republic, and Ann Taylor. I’ve also gotten Kenneth Cole wide leg jeans.
BUT — the past three times I’ve gone in, it seems the prices have gone up and the selection of brands has gone downhill. This is a consignment store. People go there looking for gently used finds at a great value! Nobody wants to pay $ 30 or $ 40 for a used Banana skirt because you can get it brand new, on sale for that price or lower. People want to walk away from a consignment store feeling like they found something great, and got a good deal! You don’t want to walk away insulted.
Last thing– I’ve also tried calling to see if they are taking new consigments. I have tops that I have worn maybe once or twice, that are Trina Turk and Banana, and pants from Anthropologie. They always say they’re not buying until two months down the road. This tells me that they rarely buy, or they have a select pool of sellers that they allow to consign and that’s all. If that’s true, they need to expand their horizons because lately, what’s going on in there, ISN’T going on.
