SparkleKids Upscale Resale

Dropped by here for the first time today and was happy with my experience. I bought two outfits (Jack and Janie and Ted Baker) for the baby girl I’m expecting, only spent $ 22 and they were in perfect condition. I will be back for purchases. I didn’t inquire as to how the selling/​consignment aspect works — might when I get to that point.

Such a joy to have this shop in the neighborhood. I’ve never sold there, I’ve only bought and have always found great outfits for my nieces and my daughter. Reasonable pricing and I love their sale rack, some of the cutest and close to new clothes for $ 1.

Love this store; majority of my son’s wardrobe is from here! I had one issue with being charged the wrong amount for an item and called; it was immediately taken care of. Great service. They also had a wonderful Santa in the store before the holidays with free photos with Santa. Great local shop.

This is a well organized shop to buy or sell children’s clothing. Cute clothes, and SparkleKids tends to stock brand names, like gap or better. The selection is small but you can find some gently worn, high quality items for a fraction of retail. The buyers are low key and quick, a nice bonus.

I will never shop anywhere else for my grand kids! I found brand new, tags still attached, Gap jeans for my grand daughter. I found more clothes than I could carry! I love this little store!

Amazing service the owner is a lot fun to talk with too. So I went in for one thing and walked out with a few more upscale never been worn shoes !! How awesome !!! I’ll be making this store my first place to begin shopping when my little one goes through a growth spurt

My first experience selling my son’s clothes and shoes not a good one. I decided not to sell my clothes and shoes to them and took my bag home. Once I was home, I went thru the bag and noticed a pair of shoes was missing. I called the store and the sales person told me she accidentally sold them. She said she could write me a check for the shoes, which was for half of what they sold them for, even though I did not sell them to the store. She felt bad, which I understand, but irritating they would not give me more since I did not sell them to the store. Poor organization of potential inventory, the sales person had pulled the items they wanted to buy from under the counter, not even in the bag they were in. Will not be returning to this store. Would advise anyone selling their clothes to check all clothing if you decide not to sell to the store.

My favorite place! It is always good for at least one church outfit and I can usually find shoes too. Friendly staff. I wish there was a bigger play area or that there were mannequins for my toddler to knock down. Lol

I really liked this place and will definitely be back.
Pros:
It has a great selection of cute outfits.
It’s not crowded visually, like clutter.
It’s not crowded with people, not yet at least.
The prices are great.
Staff is very courteous.
Cons:
Not a ton of gear: one jogging stroller… two baby slings…
Not a ton of toys, yet.
Not a ton of clothes to choose from – maybe 10 onesies, 5 pants, 2 dresses, and 10 shirts in the 3 – 6 month range. This will probably change very soon, since they seem to have just opened.

This is the best resale shop I have found in Austin so far! VERY clean and well organized with a helpful staff. It is small, but has a great selection without being overwhelming and crowded. Every single piece of clothing I looked at was in excellent condition and very fairly priced for the brand and the quality. I went to Sparkle Kids immediately after visiting another local kids resale shop and was blown away by the difference! I will be back! Just a note: When I visited they were very limited in their baby gear — if you are looking for gear, you might want to try one of the other shops or at least call ahead. Also, they do not have clothing above size 8 at this location and their boys’ selection was slim above size 4/​5, but that seems to be the norm at any consignment, resale or thrift store.
