I went with my 19 yo daughter, shopping for her. She didn't see anything for her age/style but there was a good selection of mostly new, high end brand items for those of us a bit more... mature . The woman working (I think the owner) was so nice I would definitely go back if we're in the area. read more

Exceptional with fashion advice and help finding great items at great prices! We both got everything we need for summer and had a great time. read more

Its a hit or miss but I love the store and the owner is so personable! Its clean and her store has a nice display of items!

This is a great consignment shop. The store is clean and well-organized. There are a variety of brands that I look for (Ann Taylor LOFT, Banana Republic, etc.) and the staff is very nice. I had a great experience consigning clothes here as well. Although I wish more of my stuff had sold, I realize that 00 and 0 may not sell as much as other sizes. The consignment process was very easy and I feel like I received a fair amount for what sold. I would definitely consign there again. read more

Every time I come here, I always leave with something amazing. Found my all-time favorite pair of Anthropologie pants here, and bought some like-new Lululemon leggings for a fraction of what they would be in store yesterday. Great selection for great prices! Cheryl, the owner, is a sweetheart too! By far, my favorite consignment store. read more

I'm not all too familiar with consignment shops. It seems that all of the shops I've ever entered in my past have been... well... trashy. The clothes are out of style, they stink and are torn and tattered. The costume jewelry is very nana'ish. The ambiance is dank and drab. And then there is Blackbirds Consignment. A friend of mine recommended that I contact Jackie at Blackbirds after I mentioned I was cleaning out my closet. I have a problem. This problem is called shopping. I'm addicted to it. I'll buy a shirt, for example, and really like it in the store. I'll take that shirt home and put it in my closet. I forget about it. I take it out with the intention of wearing it. I put the shirt on. I take the shirt off. I put the shirt back in my closet. It's a nasty habit. Anyway. I made an appointment with Jackie and that appointment was today. I must've brought in at least 50 pieces of clothing, 10 pairs of shoes, 5 handbags and a slew of belts. She quickly picked through the out of season items and suggested I could either hold on to them and bring them back to her in a few months, or I could leave them there and she would donate them to a local church. I decided on the latter. I like the way Jackie's store is run; she's very fair. Let's say she puts my dress up on the rack for $30. If and when that dress sells, we split the sale price; she keeps $15 and I get $15. She'll offer cash or a check or even an in-store credit. Items stay on the floor for 60 days. After the 60 days are up, you have 7 days to come back and pick up your items, or she can donate them for you. The shop is small, but it's packed full of stylish and inexpensive clothing. She does have a high end label rack which are priced fairly. Everything I looked at, high end or not, was such a good deal! Her space is light, bright and airy. It's very hip. I can't wait to get back here and spend more time poking around. Jackie is great; she's very down to earth, personable and really takes the time to talk to you. Bottom line. Stop in to Blackbirds and either drop off some items to consign, or spend some of that hard earned money of yours! read more

Oh. My. Gosh. How I never stopped by this consignment shop before I will never know!! On my first visit I scored high-end clothing that were modern and trendy. I am in LOVE! The store was a far cry from the stale, old, dingy consignment shops I've ventured in before. Where the clothes are "vintage" but far from practical everyday wear. I walked in pleasantly surprised! The store was clean, organized, and fresh. Fresh as in: free from a lingering musty odor and/or harsh perfumes (a clear indication of covering up). I expected to browse through the clothing racks and find one or two (max) items that would be "cute." But I walked in loving everything I laid my hands on. Plus with the more than reasonable prices I couldn't resist! I walked in expecting to pay $10-20. But splurged with $68. Which sounds like a lot. But man, did I get alot!! Let me list my first (definitely not last) retail haul from Blackbirds: * LOFT Modern Bootcut Dark Wash Jeans * LOFT White Summer Capris * Glossy Hunter Wedge Ankle-Length Rainboots * A&F Pinstriped Buttondown shirt * LOFT Black&White Striped Tank * Black&White Pinstriped Gap Blouse Where else can you get ALL OF THAT for $68?! I'm officially in love with this place, and will now join the long list of incoming regulars that stop by for a look see and a chat with the owner. This place is quite the gem. I almost fear letting others know about this awesome find! read more

This is a very cute consignment shop. As a consigner, I would happily do my business here -- the owner is friendly, helpful and honest which are great attributes for someone in this business. The shop is tidy, well-lit and clean, with ample changing rooms and loads of stuff to browse. They carry items you usually find in mall shops -- Gap, JCrew, Express -- in good condition at very fair prices. They'll break down your loot with you either by check or you can get credited to a store account (I believe the split is more if you go for the store account). If you're a smart and thrifty shopper, I definitely recommend the latter as my in-the-know friend proclaimed this this best local thrift shop in the area. While I'm not a shopper of consignment clothes and wares myself, I was really impressed with the professionalism and warmth the shop displayed, and think that their business model is a smart one. read more

I only feel compelled to write reviews on Yelp lately when something is amazing. Blackbirds is just that. I've only visited another local womens consignment shop before this and was a little scarred by the dingy, disorganized environment. This store is clean, super-organized and stocked with higher end clothes that don't look like they were ever worn before. The owner, Jackie, is very friendly and helpful. I feel as though I could need a specific outfit for an event, stop in here and find it with her help. I can rarely do that at stores like TJMaxx or Marshall's, so it says a lot. I can't wait to visit again! read more

The product in this store most definitely deserves 5 stars. I have never walked out empty-handed and never walked into the dressing room with less than 6 items. I've bought purses, designer jeans, shoes with the tags on them and have yet to be disappointed. The only reason for the deduction is that I recently had a very poor customer service experience. I had called over last week and said that I'm a regular shopper and asked if were they accepting fall/winter clothing donations. Jackie was extremely offended at my use of the word "donation" and corrected me to "consignment". Having never consigned before, I said No big deal, I figured it was worth checking since I was coming in to go shopping the next day anyway. She proceeded to rudely tell me that they are booked up far in advance and bringing in items in the next day is "pretty much unheard of." Ultimately, I was made to feel like an idiot and the fact that I introduced myself as a customer had no bearing on her courtesy, or lack thereof. I frequent Blackbird at least twice a month from a half hour away and I've sent several people through their doors. I visited Blackbird the following day, and I will likely continue to shop there. But ultimately, my experience left me bummed out and devalued as a customer. read more

Totally deserved that Blackbirds has never not received a 5 star rating! The best consignment experience that I've ever had! Customer service: outstanding Selection/quality of labels/quality of pieces: outstanding Layout/findability/cleanliness: outstanding General funk and decor: outstanding Walked out with 4 pieces: 2 wool Banana Republic sweaters, an Under Armor workout top, and a short sleeve spandex-y Banana Repbulic shirt - can't wait to layer it under a blazer for fall. Love that the dressing room has some girl power boosts, like a chalkboard with the message "You are beautiful... you are beautiful..." Great jewelry, too - including Tiffany's bracelets! Consigning rules are fair - but dropping off clothes is by appointment only. Be sure to check out the rack in the front with higher-end names like Lacoste and Ellie Tahari. read more

Blackbird - this is my love song to you: In my opinion this is, hands down, the BEST consignment shop in all of Rhode Island. It is a place I will return to time and time again. Yep, the cat's out of the bag, the hidden gem has been discovered...now go forth and be as fruitful (and fashion forward) as I was on my first visit: * Faux fur vest (had to take that off my Christmas List when I scored) from Nordstrom - $30 *Vintage hounds tooth cape (been wanting one of these for the past two years) - $22 *Transitional Ralph Lauren jacket with metal buckles in a beautiful royal blue - $11 *Faux fur bolero with pretty ribbon - $12 *Well tailored black Theory blazer - $29 *Two shirts each running under $8 *Lululemon work out top in teal $18 *BCBG dress (that I wore to our Yelp Holiday Party) for $26!!! The owner, Jackie, encourages consignors to come in without an appointment, she does a 50/50 split, and will allow you to bank your sales so you can apply to other finds in the store. Plus she accepts credit in addition to cash. Boo-Yah! read more

Best consignment shop in RI...no, make that New England! I seriously cannot rave about this place enough! Not only are the prices so unbelievably low, but the clothing selection is always so great to choose from. I love this store and never leave without buying something. Whether you're looking for a pair of shoes, earrings, jacket, pants, dresses or shirts...there really is something for everyone! read more

This place is great. They have the brands I like (Ann Taylor Loft, Banana, LuluLemon, Kate Spade, etc). The owner is the nicest person you'll ever meet. They always have deals. Really comfortable fitting room with a nice full length mirror. Bougie-hipster feel. read more

Blackbirds Consignment is hands down the best consignment shop in the state. I love to give back and sell a lot of clothes through the store and every time I visit, Jackie and Cheryl are always so pleasant and helpful! They price each item well enough so that the buyer, seller and store are all happy. The store is organized beautifully - you can find your size, color, etc. instantly! The layout is great. Handbag selection is FAB!!! Gucci, Coach, Louis Vuitton, Tiffany jewelry, Manolo heels, you name it, I've seen it there. I love supporting a local business and Jackie is an exceptional business owner. Not to mention Lamar, her dog, frequents the store and is a pleasure to see! I highly recommend Blackbirds for both shopping and consigning - they are honest, trustworthy and are beautiful on the inside and out! read more

This shop is so nice and the owner was one of the most helpful and kindest I've met. While I personally couldn't find anything in the store, it was still nice to look at how cute she has set it up. Everything is organized , clean and just so cozy. She is very honest about what she has and is very particular. She makes sure she is selling designer clothes in great condition. She even recommended me to a website that I could find some designer consigned handbags if I was interested. That was very sweet of her! Would definitely come back and see if I find anything in my size! read more

After reading yelp reviews I stopped in for the first time today and it will definitely not be my last! Walked out with 3 dresses, 2 pairs of pants, 2 shirts, a sweater, and a skirt, all for $116. As others have said, it is very clean and well organized, and everything is very good or like-new condition. I had an unfruitful, frustrating, and tiring shopping trip at Providence Place last week, and this was the polar opposite of that experience. Hidden gem! read more

THE BEST CONSIGNMENT SHOP IN RHODE ISLAND. PERIOD. I've cosigned at other places in Rhode Island, and the customer service you receive at BlackBirds is top notch. The owner, Jackie, is fabulous! She is so nice and makes consigning a breeze! This shop is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. read more

It is always great going in here. Jackie is very helpful and the prices are great. There is always some treasure I find and leave with!!!! Such a variety of items and prices. There seems to be something for every woman here!!! You need to go here! read more

This place is awesome! There are a ton of great clothes and all at reasonable prices. I've consigned and shopped, and enjoyed both experiences! read more

I am an avid consignment shopper and this store is amazing from the selection, to the way it's merchandised to the fabulous owner Jackie. I look forward to my next visit and all the wonderful finds i will take home and love. You must go check this store out read more

Hands down, the best consignment shop! Super clean, organized, tons of fantastic finds and the owner Cheryl is the sweetest!

First let me say I have heard nothing but fabulous things about this place from my step mother, so of course I decided to go see for myself. I was not even in the threshold and as I am holding the door for my child I was immediately NOT greeted w hello but greeted with a snippy "do you have an appointment?" As I was obv looking to consign my BRAND NEW TAG ON CLOTHING. I said well HELLO because I found this very rude. The store appeared very lovely which made this even more of a shame because the lady pam behind the desk continued to tell me (as if I am supposed to know the clothing behind her all needed to be tagged or otherwise worked on) that the appointments are not until June and that I needed one as she huffed and puffed she said she had "all these items need to be tagged, and they wouldn't take my things anyhow as they were too fancy & I should try fabulocity shop instead". She was rude, seemed bothered and if I wanted to look around I don't think I was even given the chance as she was quicker to turn me away by I was on trying to sell. Maybe if I seemed like i wanted to purchase her attitude would have been different. I called my step mom to tell her how shocked u was as she recommended the shop to me and to my surprise, SHE STOPPED GOING THERE BC OF THIS SAME LADY. Completely wasted my time and would NEVER reccomend this place bc of the lack of decent customer service and just pure ignorance. Very unfortunate bc they looked very nice for the whole 15 seconds I was in the building. read more

The best place to shop, clean, great prices, affordable high end clothing , well organized, very helpful and friendly owner. I LOVE THIS PLACE! Stop by and you not going to be sorry. read more

This shop has everything. The handbags are to die for and the prices are excellent. I always find something when I visit. The owner of the shop is very friendly and always willing to help. If your looking for some fantastic accessories and clothing blackbird's consignment is worth the trip. read more

One of my FAVORITE stores to shop and consign with! I always find the cutest things, the prices are great, and the owner Jackie is fabulous! :) read more

Jackie is professional and polite. The clothes are not high end , but it is well organized. She doesn't give you an itemized list of your items with the $$ which I did not particularly like . I really had no idea what they were selling for. Also, you will not get a phone call when the contract expires. read more

Awful experience with the woman who works on Sunday. Never been treated so rudely. I will not recommend visiting when she is there. Ignored me because I am elderly. She was too busy catering to a younger person. I waited for a while in the store before she even looked at me. I guess the store is for younger people. I was trying to pay for a layaway. She ignored me. I left in tears. Don't shop there if you are over 70! read more

I shop consignment for most of my clothes, and I love this place! The selection is always fantastic and in season. I have yet to leave without getting something wonderful. The price range is very affordable (usually $20 or less, unless it's designer). Very friendly staff and it's really easy to make and appointment to consign! She took basically everything I brought her. read more

This is the best consignment shop I have ever been to. I go to consignments shops in Rhode Island & Connecticut on a regular basis and have also been to many in Seattle & Portland (Pacific Northwest) where I have travelled frequently. Blackbirds is set up beautifully; the clothing is all clean and fashionable with a huge variety to choose from. And, the owner, Jackie, is a wonderful person. My favorite consignment shop ever! read more
