ONCE UPON A CHILD-WASHTENAW

Terrible

Average Rating

What a complete waste of time! If I could I would have given a half star rating. I had been to the Battle Creek store and had decent luck with selling items and getting a fair price for them. I visited this store today with 2 bins of children's clothing and 1 bin of maternity clothes. My clothes were all freshly laundered, free of stains and meticulously organized into type of item and season. I dropped off the bins at 10:50 and was told that it would likely be the next day before they could go through them but that I could call later in the day to see if they were done. I took my family out for the day as we had traveled an hour to get to the store. I called at 3:30 and they were already done. I was thrilled, until I got back and saw what they wanted to keep and what they were willing to give me. They offered me $100 for 2 full bins of clothes. Amongst them were 8 pairs of name brand maternity pants in practically perfect condition. When I asked what they were offering for the pants the sales girl told me between $2.30 and $2.75. I was appalled, these were all Gap, Old Navy and Motherhood Mmaternity. Typically $40-$60 retail. She then told me that they only sell them for $5 in the store. While I was browsing the store I saw that most of the boys pants in 24month size were $7 so I am quite certain that she was lying. Do not waste your time selling to this store! You are much better off going to the Battle Creek store or a Mom 2 Mom sale.
