Consignment News

Consignment update:


Pls note: We are not able to take  any baby-sizes smaller than 12mo
We DO need more very cool, Abercrombie/Hollister-type stuff for the 16/18/20 boys and young men, for the junior-size girls, and in size 10-14.
Regarding women's clothing, here is what we find is selling best:
Brand-name, better-quality, and more stylish tops and skirts.
We do not see much interest in coats, or any lingerie, and very little interest in business suits, and so, since our space is limited, we will no longer take these items for women.  We are overloaded with women's pants, and so will take only the better quality, "modern-waist"  pants.  Shoes need to be stylish and leather, and better-brand, again, because our space is limited and this is what is selling better. 
Also:  we will only be taking Winter items:  no short sleeves, at all, and no sandals, for example.


Hint: This season we have been very busy and the consignment lines have sometimes taken been quite long.  We apologize for the times that the wait is so long, but do not have the space to keep your left-overs (the items we did not accept) so we really need you to either wait or you can come back and get them before we close, on the same day.  Thank you for your understanding.  We do know that we need to open another shop (or two) but we have to do the best we can with the space we currently have, for this season.  :)  Thank you, also, for helping us to make Mother & Child such a great place!
Please remember that it is always best to call when you are on your way in order to confirm that we are able to take whatever it is that you have to consign. We do answer the telephone starting at 9AM.

We ask that you be sure of the following:
   1. all items have been freshly and thoroughly cleaned;
   2. you have not packed more than 30 items; and
   3. you have called, on the day you are coming, to confirm
          that we can take more of what you have to bring.

It is especially important, at this time of year,
1.that you call before you leave the house to bring consignments,
    to ask if we have room for more of what you want to bring.
           603 886 6727 
    (Consider putting our telephone number into your cell phone?
    and/or ask us for a business card which shows our hours.)
     We do answer the telephone starting at 9 AM.
2. that you look at , sort, and count your consignment items at home,
     instead of trying to sort them in the aisles at Mother & Child.

We usually look through consignments:
  Mon 10 - 6:30
  Wed 10 - 6:30
  Fri 10 - 6:30
  Sat 10 - 6:30


Note:  We are no longer accepting Halloween for this year, and now is the best time to bring your holiday outfits.

Remember, we no longer have a consignment toy department.  (There were too many recall issues making it impossible for us to know what toys are and are not OK to sell.)
