I grew up visiting Snooty Fox consignment store in Mariemont. I have fond memories of finding wonderful name brand treasures for great prices. This store is actually in a very good location, Harper's Point Shopping Center close to Kroger, restaurants and great shops. It's a pretty large store with two sections divided into clothing and furniture.
My biggest complaint is the "snootiness" of the staff (pardon the pun). As you'll read in other reviews, I think these ladies forget they are working in a retail environment and they are there to help, not ignore and pretend like they are working at New York Fashion Week. It's used clothing!
They do have a high standard of what they will accept, which I appreciate. It's hard to compete with the kind of sales and deals you can get these days on new clothing. When they do accept something with a name brand label, like a St. John Knit, I think they are just over priced.
I think the furniture section is laid out very nicely and it doesn't feel like a "scratch and dent" or garage sale environment in the least. They have some nice pieces. But again, I can do better and they are just high in price.
I can't comment on being the Consignor as I haven't tried to sell anything with them in several years. They pay 50% which seems generous, especially if they can get those prices. But as a shopper, I'm...
Read moreToday I figured out why it is called the “Snooty” Fox. There was no line, I walked up and was ignored by two employees one of whom was the manager (I heard her tell another customer a few minutes earlier that she was the manager) I politely said hello thinking they didn’t see me. The manager rudely snapped at me that they were with another customer and would be with me in a minute. The two of them continued to stand there and sort clothes with no other customers around for about 5 minutes and complain about how busy the store had been all day. I almost walked out but wanted the top I found. I don’t appreciate having sales people snap at me and I don’t appreciate being lied to. They were clearly not with another customer but sorting clothing which easily could have been taken care of after handling my sale. I always find more gems at the Blue Ash location and have always had friendly sales...
Read moreIf I could give zero stars, I would. I was talked to very rudely by an employee when trying to sell maternity items at this store. It clearly advertises “maternity” on the front entrance for items they have and I had called this store yesterday to ask if they accept maternity items which they confirmed they do. However, today, this employee barely skimmed through my name brand, like-new maternity items and told me I would be better off selling at another consignment shop that has a specific maternity section since there is not one at this store. I explained that I was told they accepted maternity items and she snapped back at me and just repeated what she had already said but in an even ruder tone. To anyone selling or buying maternity: Do Not Sell or Buy Here! Apparently it’s a false...
