ripoff sure its great to buy stuff there, although they are definately on the expensive side for USED items. But selling to them is rediculous! They pay very poorly. Try craigslist, ebay.... anything before going to them. They gave me 40$ for my $250 breast pump so they can turn around and sell it for $80. I regret almost everything I have sold to them. The only thing I take to them anymore is clothing because it is very difficult to sell online. They are VERY picky though.

The best store by far! I shop at Once Upon A Child often and all the people who work there are incredibly nice and very helpful. I am a single mother of 3 children and I have shopped here since my first child (she is now 12) and I still shop there for her too! I have gotten all my children's clothes, cribs & other things my children need. I'm sad that I am now done having children (my youngest is 9, and as I said before, oldest is 12) because sooner or later, I won't be able to shop there anymore! I have become real close to... read more

meh not impressed I went after reading the gently used part. even the 6/9 month clothing seemed wash worn and not too gently used. The pricing was about the same as most of the childrens clothing stores and almost more than macy's jcpennys clearance racks. Alot of the other items such as cribs strollers and stuff I saw were almost the same prices as I saw new in some places

Hit or miss Regarding infants clothing you can find some real cute stuff in very good condition for a decent price. Also, holiday clothing for Easter and Christmas are abundant and great priced. If you are looking for something like school clothing for a 4 or 5 year old then you might be better off paying a few more bucks at WalMart. Their older kids clothing is wash worn at best and downright stained and dingy frequently. Which is quite shocking because they are supposedly pretty picky about what they will take. On items su... read more

Gently used childrens items This store is great for those moms who dont want to spend a bundle on gently used baby items. When shopping with my cousin we found a great crib which looked perfectly brand new for a fraction of what it would have cost in stores. The staff was helpful and the store was organized well. Located in a plaza with plenty of parking.
