Consign of the Times

super disappointed. I don’t even get this rude of service when I’m at super high end stores and wearing sweats.
this is a small store. most people in the store were employees. not a single person welcomed me into the store. they clearly saw me. tried on some shoes. no one asked if I needed help. would have bought a pair but didn’t because no one would help me!
prices are on the high end for consignment. don’t know if I could have gotten the price down given that no one spoke to me the entire time.
selection was small. mostly clothes.

They have a selection of beautiful things that get you in the door. But they price items very high. Its pretty ridiculous. Then they try to negotiate down. I suggest you look up online everything that you are about to purchase. I found 2 items I was about considering being sold for less (on sale) and new by major retailers. I suggest doing your research. Im very familiar with consignment stores and this one definitely doesn’t offer good deals.

I bought a vintage wallet at this spot. They were friendly and let me peruse without bother. They are definitely a bit pricey for used items but the women in the store was willing to negotiate on price. Their window displays are always great with lux items perfectly displayed. All in all, I would say definitely worth a trip in but prices could be better.

The staff is super pretentious… always staring at you like you’re going to steal something. and to think I bought an item there to prove them wrong. Anyway, the consignment store directly across the street is WAY friendlier, better prices and awesome staff. it’s called Second Time Around. No minimum to consign clothing unlike this store requires 5 items. And their not over priced… never shopping here again!

Hmmm. Everything that I saw was overpriced. Way overpriced. First of all, if I’m going to buy a Herve Ledger dress for $ 700 that clearly looks used, it would make better sense to walk down the street to Herve Ledger and buy the real one for a little over $ 1,000. They have a lot of sales so I’m sure you can find one for close in price to the used one.
They had some beautiful stuff in here… we’re talking Chanel & Hermes scarves, etc. but I saw some extremely used Prada shoes shown for $ 300. 300? You have GOT to be kidding me!!! I can go to Sawgrass Prada outlet and get a brand new pair for MAAAAAX $ 300. I find shoes there for $ 150 all the time.
Also, I saw a scarf there from Emilio Pucci for $ 150. It wasn’t a vintage scarf, it was pretty new and I remembered that I just purchased one for $ 100 which was much larger, and brand new. I maybe am not up to speed on the whole «consignment» thing but I definitely am not into it. Maybe if you are looking for some super vintage piece, then check this place out, but I definitely don’t think I will be back personally.

Worth a peek if you are in the area. Do your research before you go so you know fair value because things are somewhat over priced…

I stopped by during my last SOBE trip. We waited outside for about ten minutes along with another guy who appeared to be waiting to get in. Two girls came and opened the store and we all went in. They apparently had just gone to get lunch because they mumbled a greeting and sat down to eat. Some decent stuff, but for a seasoned designer bargain shopper like myself, I’d rather surf eBay. Because eBay, unlike this store, doesn’t smell like mustard.

I love this place. I’ve been buying stuff from here since it opened. It’s a great spot for designer bags sans designer bag price tags. And since it’s located on Lincoln Road, it’s easy to just pop in to see what they have up for grabs. In order to do consignment, you must have at least five items. The items will remain on consignment for up to three months. The store keeps something like 40 – 45 percent and then you get the rest of the cash to filter back into your need-​to-​buy-​designer-​stuff fund. And for those of us who like to pick up slightly used second-​hand goodies, this is the perfect place to score a bargain and a half. It’s a win-​win for everyone involved in a cute, cozy little setting.

Overpriced. Good variety of designer items but way overpriced. Used True Religion Jeans were going for $ 120. You can by brand new ones at Nordstrom Rack for $ 99. You can’t charge more for a used item than a brand new one. Purses and shoes alike are available at the Neiman Marcus shoe sale, Gucci sale, Burberry sale or other respective designer store for the same or less than this store. I mean if I can buy brand new designer items from the designer store for the same price or cheaper than why would I bother going to a consignment shop? They need to have better deals to do well.

The moment I walked in all I could see was a beautiful Burberry summer dress made of fabric that felt light and thin and perfect for long days as it could go from early brunches to christenings, communions, casual parties, or jazz filled nights full of possibility.
Yes, possibility, the possibility of paying $ 300 for a $ 1200 dress, of finding that another woman’s last season is truly another woman’s new favorite.
Consignment stores always remind me of my grandmother’s closet. Full of goodies I’d like to try on but feel guilty for disturbing them.
The staff here is nice and diligent, they know their merchandise well and can help find something specific.
Plus: a variety, not a large one but it’s a start.
There are also accessories withe designer bags adorning walls.
Worth walking into.
Best advice: be patient and be open about what you would like
