How It Works
 | Bring in your gently used children's clothing, toys and baby equipment. |
 | While you check out the great kids stuff in the store, the buyer will review your items. |
 | The buyer will select and make an offer on the items that meet current style, safety and condition standards, as well as store's current stock levels. |
 | Once you accept the offer, you’ll be on your way with some extra money, some great new stuff for your kids, or both! |
At Once Upon A Child you'll find a huge selection of gently used kids clothing, toys, furniture and equipment at up to 70% off retail! We're not your typical secondhand store. The items that we buy and sell are next to new, good quality, clean and have been checked for safety standards.
No appointment necessary - we buy every day and will pay you on the spot! Check with your local store for additional details.

- Be sure your apparel items are freshly laundered and in good condition – no stains, fading, or excessive wear.
- Clean toys and equipment sell best.
- It is most efficient for us to review items folded neatly in a box, bin or tote. Please, no hangers or garbage bags.
- It’s always a good idea to call us to find out about what we buy.
Guidelines for what we buy:
