Pitter-Patter Children’s Consignment

We went into pitter patter looking for two things yesterday didn’t find either which was fine. Looked through some boys clothing the prices were so high we laughed. One pair of Jammies for boys 9 month was $ 6.99 you can buy two pairs for half that at the regular store with a coupon we were shocked as we kept looking through. For a consignment we felt it was very over priced. The staff was unfriendly. We had our little one with us who was quiet not loud or annoying never once was greeted with even a simple hello or welcome. My husband asked if they had one of the things we were looking for and she said no and turned away like annoyed he would even ask. As we were leaving he said thank you have a wonderful day we got no acknowledgement of any sort. As a small business I would think being polite is the first thing that would come to mind. We both left and said wow lost all referral and business we had. I’m willing to shop local but with people like that no way! I have no idea if this is normal for them and people are just used to that but our family will not be back. Very rude. And I will let people know my experience there for sure!

I love family owned, small businesses. This is a beautiful store. Very clean, orderly, friendly, fun place to visit. I started consigning my clothing there a few years ago and I have done really well. There is a lot of foot traffic so there is a lot being sold and more being put out. Something new every time I am in. This is a kid and family friendly store with a playroom and a room for nursing mothers and a changing table. The prices are very reasonable, they carry very high end diaper bags, slings (new Moby’s!!) and other great gift ideas. They also sell local vendors creations displayed very nice and neat. Nothing overly cheesy, or poorly made.
I love visiting and will continue to tell everyone about it. The only downfall is that it is in Newberg. But, every first Friday the stores in Newberg’s downtown open up and do and art walk and wine tasting. Most of the time there is live music too.
The summer time is wonderful too. Tuesdays there is a farmers market and at 6pm Tunes on Tuesday starts in the park. Live bands, wine, food and a lot of fun!

Very nice consignment shop. Everything was clean, well organized and there was no odd smell that you often find in second hand shops. Prices seemed a little high in compared to other places I have been, but the items were in good condition. I was impressed with the selection of clothing in various sizes as well as baby and kids stuff for all ages. The staff was friendly and helpful.
