Sell – Trade – Consignment

Have items to sell? Great! Here’s how it works.

When To Sell:

You can sell, trade or consign by appointment. Call the store to set up an appointment, or in person. Please call ahead if you have large items to sell (such as furniture or strollers), just to make sure we have room for them on the sales floor.  

What We Buy:

We have high standards for the merchandise we sell, therefore, we carry only top quality, brand name kids and maternity clothing in current fashion (generally no more than five years old), kids sizes ranging from NB to size 10. We love buying unique, handmade and vintage pieces as well. All clothing must be freshly laundered and in excellent condition with no stains or tears.

*Please limit your clothing to one paper bags or comparable size bin per appointment*
If your little one has grown out of their sleep sacks, cloth diapers and diaper covers, bring ’em on in, we buy those too. If you’re a crafty mama and would like to discuss selling your creations at Piccolina, bring in samples — we’d love to see them!

We gladly accept furniture, strollers, high chairs, slings, diaper bags, books and toys (wooden toys sell the best!). All items must be in great shape, no more than five years old and free of any recalls.

Examples of children’s clothing brands that sell well for us: Gap, Mini Boden, Gymboree, Hanna Andersson, REI, Kickee Pants, Columbia, Winter Water Factory, Lands End, Patagonia, Mustard Pie, and most organic brands.

Examples of children’s clothing brands we typically do not accept: Carters, Circo, Just One You, Sprockets, Children’s Place, Cat & Jack, Old Navy, Gerber, Target brands, Fred Meyer brands and other main-stream discount store brands.

Also, we do not buy car seats (due to liability) or cribs.

How You Get Paid:

You’ve got some choices here: Trade, Sell or Consign.

Trade For Credit:

You can bring in children’s and maternity clothing from the current season to trade for store credit. You will receive 40% in store credit to use within 1 year.

Sell For Cash:

You can bring in children’s clothing, shoes, toys, games and books, and you will receive 25% of what we’ll sell your items for in Venmo or check form on the spot.

Consignment:

We offer consignment on all larger ticket items (such as cribs, strollers, furniture, carriers, etc.). We will have your items on the sales floor for two months. After that time, we will add up your riches and pay out via Venmo or carry over to your store credit. You receive 50% of the price your item(s) sold for. If any of your items have not sold, we will hold them for you for up to 2 weeks (in our small storage area), and/or then donate them to a very deserving charity. Any funds not claimed after one year from sale will only be offered in the form of store credit.
