Once Upon A Child - Salem is a children's consignment store. It is described as a great place with great employees, good service, and good prices. The store has a great selection of everything you would ever need for your kids, including a lot of named brand clothing, shoes, toys, and cute clothing. Items are nicely organized by size and are very clean, with most showing very low signs of usage. Prices for clothing are noted as cheap, averaging between $2.50 and $4.50. However, some customers feel the clothes and toys can be a bit expensive, with some items close to retail prices and described as pretty expensive for being used. Regarding selling items, the store offers fair compensation for the convenience of simply dropping off a bag. Some sellers express confusion or disappointment when items, such as preemie clothes described as in high demand and in brand new condition, are not accepted. Supporters note that resale pricing is typical, and getting cash without the work of a private sale is a valuable service. Overall, it is a place many love and would recommend.
Great place to buy baby clothes for cheap! Their clothes are quality and their baby toys are in good shape

Staff is so friendly! I had a handful of clothes and a sweet worker went to get me a cart. They are quick to check you out. I just wish the aisles were a bit wider, but I suppose that would mean there wouldn't be as much room for clothes 😀

You won't get rich selling your clothing here but you'll make more than dropping off at Goodwill! I browsed around and the clothing is good quality and less than Walmart and Target's in house brands. I'll probably come back once my kids size up
