I also told you that we would try to take the bigger girl's toys to try because I didn't have to much success with them in the past like the dance mat. Also I told you that toys don't always sell that great just after Christmas. And yes my hard drive to my computer broke and had to be updated and transfered. I have been in business for 13 years and you are my 1st complaint. Also I gathered all of your toys to be picked up when you were to return and a couple months later they were donated to Paula from Christ Fellowship for the unfortunate. I am sorry that I can't please all of my consignors and customers.

I emailed them in regards to the measurements of a dress they had for sale on ebay. I received back a reply with not so much as a "hi", or "hello", not even a complete sentence, just the measurements. I sent them a second email with a question about the payment I had just sent them. I just wanted to know if it was standard to collect FL sales tax on used clothing because they charged me sales tax. I didn't remember ever paying tax before on used clothing. I never got a response from them. The dress was mailed just thrown cardboard usps box with nothing to protect the dress inside. Clothing needs to enclosed in plastic to insure it does not get ruined if the box gets wet. Not to mention how easily a silk dress will become snagged from being loose in a box. They should know this is not the way to treat a garment. I left them neutral feedback on ebay due to their lack of customer service to which they then left a comment on my ebay feedback profile saying that I was a "HORRIBLE BUYER, TYPICAL WELLINGTON GARBAGE! PROBLEMATIC FROM THE START!" Apparently they consider customers "problematic" for asking a questions. So don't ask them any questions, they just want your money without having to provide any real customer service. And if you are from Wellington, well they consider you to be trash, so please don't spend your dirty Wellington money at their store. Their used clothing is just too good for us!

I was scammed by consignment shoppes twice in a row. Same scam, two different stores.....I dropped off lots of nice designer items (many new with tags), I came back a month later to collect a check and the stores were gone! Neither store bothered to call me and tell me they were closing, they just stole my items. Both stores were in Royal Palm Beach. One store was in the Kmart plaza, the other was in the Publix plaza (Southern & Forest Hill). These people need to be arrested for pulling these scams. Be very careful!!
