I have bought and sold to The Kids Shoppe many times before. Today I decided to go to Once upon a Child for the very first time, who happened to not be accepting certain sizes of clothing due to their large stock. I went to the Kidshoppe afterwards to see if they would buy my clothing as all my items were name brand. The lady working there was very nice when I dropped off my boxes as she squeezed me in since I was coming from out of town (Blenheim). I really appreciated this. However, when I returned she said “this is pretty awful” and was showing me the Once upon a Child paper attached to my box. She continued and said that they have very high standards, like Once upon a Child and said that I should have visited them first. My intention was not to go to The Kidshoppe second because of their “lower” standards as all my clothing was gently used name brand clothing, but to try to sell my items as the other store was not accepting all sizes. The Kidshoppe did not buy any of my items today and I felt as if I offended them. It didn’t seem she even looked through my items either. I don’t feel like I did anything wrong by going to two different stores. Also I didn’t purposely leave the other store’s paper on the box, however, it shouldn’t matter if I did. I love the idea of consigning and shopping for used clothing as it lets us make some extra money as well as it’s good for the environment. I will no longer support The Kidshoppe unfortunately. I felt embarrassed and upset after today when I really didn’t do anything wrong.
