Sweet Repeats

Great place to buy things, but you get a raw deal when you sell your things there. They keep 60%…
I do not agree with the reviews that say there prices are too high, their prices are good… you just don’t get a fair split when you sell stuff there. I only bring my nicer things and I’ve never made enough to to hardly bring my things but a great place to buy… just have to be selective.

I came to browse because I had time to kill and I like a good deal on quality items. I’ve found a lot of excellent deals on baby/​maternity goods on some online Buckhead/​Brookhaven and Intown parents exchange, so these are my regular price points.
The shop itself is packed with kids clothes! Maternity wear is in the back, so my 3^rd trimester belly bump was getting a good Houdini workout squeezing around the store. In the process I had time to look at some clothes and made the mistake of seeing some of the tags. Holy smokes! These are consignment prices?! A 6month old girls tank top should not be $ 25. Ever. I don’t care if it’s spun with the hair of labradoodle puppies by Beyonce. I have a hard time with Hannah Anderson prices, but can see the allure of cuteness. But… no. My baby will be wearing non couture drivel.
On to the maternity section. It was pretty sad and honestly a lot of shabby stuff… that was still being sold way beyond consignment prices. Maybe if the name brand stores were having a 15% off sale and selling the items brand new I could see the cost at least as realistic.
1 star for amount of clothes in store (maybe no one buys there?)
1 star for the nice, friendly clerks.

I consigned more than $ 300.00 of super high-​end clothes from my boy-​girl twins last year and received a check in the amount of $ 13.00. I also asked that unsold merchandise be returned.
I should have known something was fishy when they didn’t take a clear inventory of my items and then told me to call back to see if I have a check or my items sold.
When I finally returned to inquire about my items they referred me back to the «contract» which releases them from liability and allows them to keep your clothes without paying you. And because I did not have a list of items, I was essentially screwed.
I would have been better off donating them to a great cause – at least I’d be helping the needy and lining some woman’s pockets.

I went is for my daughter and I, because I am pregnant and we love to shop! However I am used to going to consignment shops (especially kids) and not having to be concerned with the prices. But Sweet Repeats need to lower there process, I found them to be ridiculous! I was so turned off I didn’t even think about searching for the sales. I shop at Labels boutique very frequently so I am not a stranger to paying high prices for quality used clothing!!! BTW they referred me. Im not sure if i’ll be back to check out what the sales are like. The maternity was the worst BTW. These items are not all all nice, but because the label read «Pea in a Pod» I guess they decided to just go for it. They need to really rethink there price points.

As a shopper, I have found some very nice things. Yes, they can be overpriced. They do a sales after the stuff has been there a while, however. And if the item is in good shape, it’s still cheaper than buying new. And recycling is good.
As a seller, my experience has been a bit hit or miss. My stuff does sell, but you only get a small percent of the sales price. Also, if you want to get your unsold items when you’re time is over, you have to hunt on your own for the unsold items. Which I’m fine doing, but I couldn’t find 8 outfits this last time! Basically they just apologized, with no real concern.
So I may go back as a buyer, but I’m not going to sell there again.

Once our baby is born, I will return and look at actual baby/children’s stuff (they had a HUGE selection) but I went in in search of maternity wear.
The selection was ok and the organization was fine – but the prices were way too high. $ 18 for an obviously worn, super-​pilled sundress that you could find at any given yardsale? I went through the racks and found a nice white shirt from old navy for $ 5 – totally reasonable. The rest of their clothing was simply too expensive for consignment. They had some nicer brands and some nice things, but they all needed to be marked way down in order to be reasonable.
All that said, I will return when we need things for our baby once she’s born.

Now 19 months of shopping here and getting ready for our 2^nd child we think this is the best consignment store in Atlanta.
Great prices, clean and well organized store with a good selection.
Parking can get a little tight, but if so you can just park on the street and walk the extra 10′.

I went in looking for shoes and was impressed by the amount of boys clothing. Most of the consignment shops that I’ve visited have very little when it comes to boys clothing under 12 months, but there were several nicely organized racks of just boy clothes. Unfortunately, the shoes weren’t well organized, with all styles and all sizes just placed on top of the clothing racks, leaving me looking throughout the whole store.
They’ve got a small play area near the register and a section for maternity clothes in the back. I’ll be back!
There’s limited parking (only 2 – 3 spaces right in front of the shop).
