Looking for Consignment Store to Sell Gently Used Clothing Successfully
I am looking for suggestions of consignment shops or places where I can sell my gently used, yet fabulous looking clothes. I was formerly a size 2-4 and I have some great work clothes. I know I can donate, but I wanted to see where I can possibly get some cash for it. I've had successful garage sales, but I could use the space immediately.

There is a place in Naperville (near fox valley mall), called Clothes Mentor. They are like a once upon a child or Plato's Closet, but for adults.

There's Second Hand Rose in downtown Wheaton. Besides that, I only know of shops where you donate the clothing - Wise Penny in Wheaton, a place on Geneva and President whose name I can't remember and another place at Geneva and Main by the Office Depot.

"My Favorite Things" In Westmont on 63rd and Cass Ave. They have many brand name clothes, purses etc. the consign. The stuff they carry is in great condition. I've purchased many things there and have been very happy.
good Luck!

http://www.resaleelegantrepeat.com/ in Downers Grove and http://eliterepeatshop.com/ in Westmont are both great places to buy clothes, so I imagine they are also great places to consign at.

Clothes Mentor is great, but they are very picky. Clothes must be less than 2 years old and must meet their brand name requirements. They do take maternity, but they don't take formal wear. They have three locations now: Naperville, Schaumburg, and Orland Park. Another great place is in Bloomindale called Walk-In-Closet (http://www.walk-in-closet.com/). They do take formal wear, but they are picky too. I think you need to make an appointment there, but at Clothes Mentor you can just walk in. Good luck.
