lailas mom i have sold them some things that were brand new almost and i feel like they did cheat me. and i brought things the same day and what they gave me for my nstuff was ridiculous but i didnt feel like bringing everything back home so i took the change and put it toward what i purchased. needless to say it didnt put a dent in the 167.00 dollars i spent. and yes the staff is very rude, so ive decided to find another spot to bring my other things. and yes some of the shoes were not gently used, you can find nice shoes i... read more
GumdropSwap is the alternative I was unhappy with UOAC and didn't want to donate my 3 kid's clothes and not get anything for them. Then I found this website called http://www.GumdropSwap.com. It's a boutique based in Bridgeport, CT but you can do everything through the mail. So I swapped in a ton of stuff and got new stuff and nice gently used things in return. I got a lot more return on my investment with them and highly recommend as an alternative to UOAC
horrible experience my experience was bad. they met none of my expectation's. they wanted to pay me nothing for brand new item's,i just tried to submit review ,they sent it back stating , there is too much nonsense in it. unbelievable. there prices are unreasonable, the store is a mess, the employee's rude, some are. i would not ever recommend them, don't waste your time. n/g Nov, 17 2008
LOOK ELSEWHERE I have bought from Once Upon a Child before and been very happy. However, I strongly suggest NEVER selling to them. You will get pennies for qualities merchandise, including clothes. I spent hours sorting through clothes, toys, etc.... and giving them only quality products. Clothes with tags on them, etc.... Almost everything I brought was given back to me except for a few expensive items which they gave me NOTHING for. VERY DISAPPOINTING. I should have known when a customer in the store saw me bringing in ite... read more
Almost perfect This store offers almost perfect clothes for younger chilren and babies. The prices are very inexpensive. The store does seem a bit crowed for the inventory they have, so it is sometimes hard to search though the racks of clothes they have. Since they take gently used clothes, its a great way to dress your child for a fraction of what it would buying them new. Definatly worth a look, when you have the time to.
jon I was so disgusted, I had new clothing brand names with tags, they tried to give me $1.50 for a $32.00 PAIR OF NIKE CHILDRENS NEW SHOES. There are so many new places popping up, don't waste your time there, Bad, Rude customer service. dirty ,over crowded store. jon
Children's Attire We browse Once Upon A Child regularly. We have also brought items to the store for them to purchase. It is very true that they only take decent quality items. It is a place it seems you must frequent often as merchandise is always changing. The prices are very reasonable. I have bought many items in there for both my girls that still have orginal tags on them. Give it a try. I was glad we did. Most likely you will keep returning.
Wouldn't Recommend I've found them to be extremely picky in what they will take. Even stuff NWT is not taken. They don't recognize some high end label brands and have offered next to nothing for them.
RIP OFF!!!!!!!!! I went to Once Upon a Child with a $350 oak crib. Used less than 2 yrs and was in perfect condition. They wanted to give me $50!!!! Are they crazy?! I knew I wasn't gonna make a lot of money back, but GEESH!! You can't buy a crib like that anywhere for less than $200.00. I wouldn't bring anything there or shop there again. They have teenagers working who don't know the first thing about baby stuff so how can they tell you what you are going to get for them? Ridiculous!!! Not to mention they put your stuff do... read more
