HOORAY! No more garage sale hunting, Craigs-list searching, and Saver’s and Goodwill shopping for steals on children’s clothing! Don’t worry, I don’t put my baby in other people’s underwear, just outer garments in very good condition. Rhea Lana’s is a children’s consignment venue specializing in gently used children’s clothing, toys, books and baby equipment. I recently became a fan of second hand shopping for my daughter who seems to grow out of everything in a month or two. I just can’t turn down pieces of clothing for a few bucks. Not only that, my daughter pretty much has three homes(ours and the grandparents) and I seems to lose track of her clothes. FORTHESHOPPERS– The items at the store were organized in a understandable fashion. There are huge signs letting buyers know what items are where. As I sifted through the clothing racks, I noticed good brands such as Juicy and Polo. My favorites to purchase second hand are Gymboree, Circo, and Children’s Place items. There were a good supply of those brands too. It felt like the buyers at this store have made sure to sell decent brands and items in the store. I am headed to the mainland next month and I was able to purchase my daughter a cute Genuine Kids jacket for $ 3.50. Also, there was one rack of maternity clothing. I loved the hand me down maternity clothing my friends gave me. If I were to ever get knocked up again I will definately visit this place and check out that rack. There were also a decent array toys and baby equiptment(pack and plays, beds, bouncers, etc). The equitment looked cleaned and in good shape. Some of the toys were not in top condition but toys probably get used more than equiptment. For my daughter I got a brand new DVD Once Upon a Potty for her($ 11.85 on Amazon) for $ 3! Some people are not comfortable with purchasing second hand items but if you are ok with it I recommend checking Rhea Lana’s out. FORTHESELLERS– I listed some things on craigslist and it was pretty humbug. You gotta deal with meeting people, then hagglers, and of course actually listing the item. Thank you Rhea Lana’s I will never go and do that again. This place lets you set your price you are comfortable with and you get 70% sales. They cut you a check versus giving you store credit which I prefer. I personally have not consigned anything yet. Apparently there are consignment periods which are a few times a year(according to the worker I spoke to). It’s an online system and you enter your own items. I can’t wait to actually do this so I can share my experience. However there was good information on how to do this online . So for now, the service was kind and the goods were decent! If your interested in consigning the process seems painless and the directions are clear. 5 stars when compared to other consignment shops for sure!
