TLDR story of why we buy the way we do.
We prefer to buy outright. This way there is no mystery. You can have clarity on what exactly we are buying, and the amount you are getting. With consignment stores, the time between dropping off and getting paid means that you likely forgot what exactly you dropped off! If you have nicer items, you shouldn’t be left to worry that they’ll be underpriced. We value quality pieces and price them accordingly, so you earn a fair amount, instantly.
People often ask what percentage we pay. Well, we don’t pay a set percentage. Not everything has the same resale potential. If it is something generic, or very common like a plain onesie, we might pay 25%, if it’s something that’s super desirable and will sell quickly, we might pay 50%. Not paying a set percentage also allows us to make exceptions and buy things that need small repairs or stains treated. We will just pay slightly less to offset the effort of washing and repairing things.
What types of toys do you accept?
We like to buy open-ended toys, Montessori inspired, imaginative and pretend play, and wooden toys. We will accept puzzles with up to 100 pieces. We buy board games that are designed for children under 10 years old.
We do not buy battery-powered toys or stuffies. All items must meet current safety standards, please check cpsc.gov for recalls!
We are constantly seeking out new vendors to partner with. We would love to see what you make and help you make some money! If you make something that would sell well in our store, please read over the consignment agreement here:
