This store far exceeded my expectations. When I walked I was amazed at the presentation of the clothes, toys, everything. The staff is friendly and so very helpful. If you have a rapidly growing child then this is the place for you. I found Ralph Lauren and Cat & Jack, my favs. I would highly recommend.

I did a lot of business here previously and it went good. They have a cute collection of stuff to buy but I don't recommend selling.
I brought another entire tote of clothes and they didn't take a single item. Stated they are more selective now. All my items were clean and without stains, some brand new.
