The Children's Clothing Tree
PURCHASING POLICY
It is important to us that we offer our customers great products at value prices. We look for clothing that is in-style with little wear, and gear that meet today's safety standards. We cannot sell anything that has been recalled. We buy by appointment only. Our appointments generally last half-hour to one hour and we are able to look through one bin/tote of clothing. We will write you a check on the spot, or earn a higher percentage in store credit.
Clothing We purchase clothing from Preemie through size 10, as well as maternity. We are also interested in outerwear, dress wear and special occasion, pajamas, Halloween costumes and dress-ups, dance items, shoes and boots (with no dirt or debris in the soles!). Before you bring in your clothing, please be sure each piece is free of stains and odors, excessive wear & fading, holes and missing pieces such as buttons. This is especially important if they have been stored in plastic bins as the plastic causes stains to reappear. W e sell discount brands (such as Faded Glory, Circo, etc.) at a lower price. We cannot purchase clothing with rhinestones due to possible lead content.
Dance & Sports Stuff If you are no longer using your sports gear such as leotards and tutus, ballet and tap shoes, soccer cleats and shin guards, baseball cleats and gloves, bring that, too!
We're open to anything (we've had equestrian riding pants before!).
Puzzles, Games and Movies DVDs should be free of scratches and in original packaging.
Classic board games & puzzles must be in the original packaging and have all pieces and instructions. We are picky, so please check with us before bringing them in.
Sorry, unless toys are “self contained” we will not purchase them. *
Baby Gear "Gear" are items such as strollers, infant swings, bouncy chairs, highchairs, booster seats (for the table), baby carriers, walkers and exersaucers, etc. Due to the Consumer Product Safety Act of 2008, gear must be no older than 5 years and have all pieces. Exersaucers must have been manufactured after August 2008.* Call for more details
