How are you COVID safe?
I'm triple vaccinated and take public safety very seriously. I will follow all public health safety orders as outlined by the province of BC.

How do I get paid for my items?
After you create an account and drop off items that follow the Rules for Resale, I will review and text you an offer. Reply to be paid by e-transfer or store credit. You do not have to wait for your items to sell. No haggling.
-
Why is it important to buy second-hand?
Planet Earth is drowning in unused items. Clothing makes up 5% of BC’s landfills and takes over 200 years to decompose. We do NOT need to produce and transport more clothing around the globe - especially when there are quality items right here in our own community on the Sunshine Coast!
-
I can't find what I'm looking for!
I stock my store based on my own experience of what Sunshine Coast kids need. However, if you need a particular item, please let me know! I will do what I can to find it for you. I'm open to feedback on how to better serve our community.
-
Why don't you sort by gender?
Because people are free to wear whatever they want. Full stop.
-
Why don't you sell toys or equipment?
Unfortunately, the insurance needed to sell children's toys or equipment is prohibitively expensive. Bummer, I know.
-
What currency are your prices in? Where's the tax?
All prices are in CAD.
-
Why shop local?
Shipping products across the globe is not sustainable and, frankly, very silly. Especially when we have items available to us right here in British Columbia! Shopping and selling local benefits families living here on the Sunshine Coast, including YOU.
