This recycling shop for "kids' stuff with previous experience" buys and sells gently used children's clothing, equipment and furniture.

Not worth your time!!!

I drove 45 minutes to shop at Once Upon A Child...because I had heard it was so great, etc...I dropped of my used, still in fashion, some new with tags merchandise...and browsed around the store while they looked through it. I decided very quickly not to buy anything. They clothes were all overpriced. You can go online and buy name brand clothes from Old Navy etc...website for the price OUAC was charging! About an hour after looking around they informed me they were ready. Before they told me the total...I asked to know the price of each item. First on the list. Brand new Nike Shocks my daughter had only worn a few times. Their price. $2.50. I grabbed all of my stuff and left without saying another word. A waste of gas and time. You can make more at a yard sale, ebay, or even craigslist. Not to mention the staff is rude and acted as if the customers were an inconvenience to THEM! TWO THUMBS DOWN!!!

Pros:lots of stuff to look at
Cons:overpriced, rude staff, will make more at yardsale!

Not worth it

For buying I think they are high compared to what they give you on consignment. I have stopped bringing things there all together, they have not taken brand new things before.


Better customer service now!!!

I have been a customer here for years and have seen good times and bad. It seems that there is a great improvement lately. Things seem to be looking better and the staff is much more friendly. I have noticed some staff changes and it seems like the turn around rate has gotten better. I love the fact that they are so pickey when they take items because that means as a shopper you are getting really good items. I took items there to sell last week and it was done within 35-45 mins and was ready to go before I was done shopping. It was a wonderful experience and I hope it continues!!!
