Um, ok Ladies. RUN, don't walk, to Lily Kat's!! I was going on a trip with my in laws and desperately needed a classy, pretty, presentable wardrobe change ASAP. Normally I would try to skim Rainbow or Ross for low cost outfits but I was taking a class next door and decided to walk over. I have been BLOWN AWAY! The employees were SO kind and helpful. Everything is CLEAN and so well organized! And guess what? They have dressing rooms! Very spacious ones, and they won't judge you for trying on 50 different items (which I did). The clothes are nice, mostly name brand at almost unbelievable prices. And did I mention they are clean? I purchased dresses, shoes, and jewelry. I approached the counter expecting to spend double what I did, when the employee explained their pricing. The longer the item has been at the store. The less it is! I ended up spending half of what I anticipated! Sorry this is so long but it's worth mentioning, there was someone attempting to sell clothes while I was shopping. Her items were inspected thoroughly and the employees identified mold and other potential hazards. This made me feel so much better knowing the items I'd be wearing were of top quality and value. They only accept the best so you can alwahs expect the best. I received several compliments on my trip for my one of a kind, classy fits. I will be returning! I can't wait to shop here with my Mother in Law. Thank you Lily Kat's for an...
Read moreNever bring your items their to cosign unless you want to get ripped off. Where to start, first whatever they decide to accept from your stuff, you only get (40%) of what they claim they sold it for. Second, whatever they claim they can't use, they claim that they donated it. Okay, first of all unlike (85%) of everyone that cosign there, I too resale merchandise at the Bragg Blvd Flea Market. I have been for going on (29) years, so I have way more experience selling items and knowing what their worth. Because I have an over abundance of (NEW) clothing. I figured what the heck, and dropped off 14 boxes of all Brand New clothing, just to see if they could move it. Out of (216) New items total, only (77) items were accepted. Apparently everything was donated, but little did they know I had my employee drop the stuff. Three weeks later I see some female setting up one row behind me. And what do you know, she's got several dozen items of mine on her table. I know this because I mark all of my Brand New items on the tags. A week later, come to find out she's one of the employees. Now this was several years ago and I never said anything to anyone cause all those items came from a storage unit that I've already cleared ($3027.00) profit on. After reading several reviews of other people having the same problem, I figured I'd share my story too. All in all, these people are crooks and...
Read moreI consign and then occasionally will buy something like once a year here.
Make sure you pay attention to the consigning rules on your first visit (ie bring in the correct items for the season they are accepting, rules for tattered stained clothing). On your first visit they spend time with you and explain everything and answer your questions while reviewing each item. Explaining why or why not they did or didn’t accept an item. On your following drop offs you just bring the box and that’s it, if you bring in the wrong items for the season or something out of their guidelines they will donate it. So make sure you pay attention!
Will you make tons of money? No. But if you’re like me, you’ll forget about the clothes, check your account one and find a nice little surprise that will pay for your impulse Target visits.
I think of the designer consignment as Clothing Karma, if you donate a really nice item you’ll eventually find something just as awesome (paid $7 for this vintage Gucci Clutch- had a matching change purse inside)
In the past I bought NWT Tommy Bahama Maxi dress along with other items. If you’re a parent, they have a lot of cute baby clothes in good condition.
In addition, I believe they do a really nice sidewalk sale a few...
