i don't know why there are so many bad reviews for this place! i love everything here, i always find something, and helena is so sweet and helpful. I come here every year on vacation and i have never once had a problem, and the prices are incredibly reasonable as well. I will be coming back! read more

I almost didn't want to write a review because I wanted to gatekeep this place, but this woman deserves a good review. I have vacationed in ocean city all 26 years of my life and this store is a must-go for me and my sister. She has good brands but beyond that she has GREAT TASTE and great prices. Even if it's not name brand, the pieces I have received the most compliments on BY FAR have come from this store. I always find gems, plural! If this spot ever left asbury, all the women in my family would grieve. I love this place. read more

Owner was warm and welcoming. Great prices. Just so much fun. Walls and walls of clothing. Helena was happy to help!

Rude employee, cluttered, and smelly. Children are not welcome here. Felt uncomfortable and unwelcome right away

The store owner is incredibly kind. She makes sure all of her pieces are quality and affordable. Compared to recent consignment shops, the clothes are decently price. My family and I always look forward to stopping in her store. read more

Really rude customer service. Owner rushed me out while in the dressing room and made me feel bad for trying on items. Another owner sassed my friend when asking if she could pay with card, then proceeded to spray the perfume (that my friend was buying ) on herself. The experience made me not want to buy anything at all. Owners also came out to watch us when we were leaving. If you're below the age of 40 don't come in because they'll assume you're stealing. read more

I've been coming to this store for a decade. Super interesting and quirky stuff, but the owner is so RUDE. I went in there with some friends today and as I was browsing, she went up to my friends told them "you aren't real shoppers are you?". I heard her say this to a few other groups as well- all skewing younger. She was profiling them because she assumed young people don't have $10 to spend in her store?! I also asked if I could try on a hat that was hanging up really high. She launched into a tirade about how hard it is to get the hats down and replace them. I told her to forget it. if it's so hard to get the hats, maybe don't hang them like that? She was seriously so rude and made us feel so unwelcome and uncomfortable. I used to love this place but won't be giving her any more of my money. read more

This shop has an amazing shop window stocked full of designer brands (from Bebe to Dior). Plus there are $5 sale racks out on the sidewalk to entice you inside! Upon entering, the owner greeted me right away and wasn't overbearing while I was there. She let me browse on my own, but still answered any questions that I had. Although most of the brands seemed to be average, there were a few higher end brands mixed in (Bebe, Betsey Johnson, etc) and even a few Michael Kors, Juicy Couture, and Coach bags (some still with tags attached). I did end up finding an H&M Hawaiian print dress on one of the $5 racks that fit perfectly. I'll definitely be back. read more

I love this store so much! I came here in May and loved it instantly! I bought a Polo Ralph Lauren jean jacket for $10! Helena, the store owner, is awesome! She isn't overbearing and is super helpful! I just stopped in today to look for some jeans. I end up buying 6 pairs! On the tags it said that the jeans were $15-20 dollars each but she gave them to me for $5-10 instead! I bought two accessories as well and she gave them to me for free! Please stop in this awesome store! (P.S. - This store also goes by the name "Helena's Consignment Boutique", it can be a little confusing) read more

Love this store! Always have good finds and pricing are great. Just wish it was closer to home:)

They were exceptionally rude and the prices are extreme for a consignment store! Definitely not worth feeling belittled and disrespected when you shop. I'd recommend quite literally anywhere else. read more

Don't be confused "Could Be Yours Consignment" and "Helena's " is the one in the same horrible place! After walking out of this business and being treated so horribly by the owner I was speechless. I also noticed for the few minutes my family and I were in this shop that none of the clothes I looked at we're priced. Each customer had to walk up to the owner and ask what the price was for each item? I wonder what the price was for a customer she liked verses an out-of-towner? I will never know because I will never be back! Liz M in Maryland read more

The owner is disgusting! My daughter and her friends went into the store. Once other people came in who I guess were the kind of customers the owner prefers, she told my daughter and friends that they shouldn't go further into the store because there wouldn't be anything in there they wanted. Then she actually told them to leave because the store was too crowded! They had only been in there for 10 minutes and were cordial and polite. The owner is rude and no one should shop there! read more

I wish I read the reviews on google before I walked 2 feet into this horrible business. The owners are classless. Both the husband and wife were working when I attempted to enter their store with my small travel stroller that measures shoulder width. I first encountered their rudeness when I tried entering their door and the woman barked at me to be careful with my stroller. I politely said I will and Entered their second door. As I tried to squeeze through their racks that are a fire hazard, my stroller caught onto a scarf and accidentally knocked over three boxes of perfume. I immediately apologized and went to pick them up and heard "omg there goes over $100 of inventory." Let me tell you not one item broke because they were sealed in protective boxes and it was cheap perfume that was covered in dust. I then told a woman i will be leaving because clearly you don't want my business and she said that's a good idea while her husband began barking and harassing me. Another 2 customers followed me out the door because they also felt uncomfortable and said they've never seen owners treat potential customers like that. If I could give them negative stars I would. I couldn't get out of that store fast enough. I'm shaking. According to other reviews these people don't like children and it's clear. My daughter quietly sat in her stroller and said not one word or touched anything, but the fact i had her and a stroller in there I was harassed. This place is a disgrace. I'm known for spending over $150 in consignment stores and they lost my business and the business of many other locals in the area. read more

Terrible customer service. Came in on a rainy day down the shore. Already had multiple items in my hand to purchase, when my friends 3 year old daughter announced she had to use the bathroom. The owner would not allow the child to use the bathroom (against NJ state law) and directed us to another location and also stated "maybe if you go to a restaurant and buy a soda they will let you use it" I promptly put the items on a rack and walked out. Lady, you just lost a lot of customers, and broke the law. I should have known from the rude and uppity way you greeted us and looked at a toddler with disgust, that I should have walked right out. But instead I gave you a try, and you blew it. read more

The best consignment shop anywhere! I have been to many and this one is my favorite. The owner is fun & stylish and sells many very fine quality items at incredible prices. I would like to keep it a secret but she is so sweet I have to share! read more

This consignment shop is unethical to say the least. Maybe someone should check with the salvation army to see if she donates tremendous amounts of valuable clothing? If you read Bridget Ws review I would consider the implications to the consigner? Giving things away for free? She robbed me of many valuables with absolutely no regard to record keeping or respect to others property. One day when dropping things off I saw a little blouse and handed her the 7 dollars for it. Helena laughed and said I was funny. In retrospect it was funny to her, since she had no intention of being honorable in return!!! There is no way she will operate much longer with her lack of ethics! read more

I can't believe this place got an bad reviews because my experience was fantastic! Helena is wonderful and has great taste!

Clearly the older lady with the black hair needs a few lessons in customer service. When I walked in she said " Can I help you with something!" And she said it as to attack me. Clearly im coming in to shop, if i needed help i would ask, i wasn't two feet in the door before this took place. I'm dressed professionally...its very said that this still happens in 2016. I immediately didn't want to spend my money there. I looked around because I wanted to see if she greeted the next customers in the same manner. She didn't! It was friendly " how are you!?" I didn't have a problem spending $200 in this store to avoid summer traffic. Being a life long year round resident of Ocean City, she made me quickly see that my green money that came from my black hand, bothered her a lot. She seems to forget that money helps her business, when summer is over I would rather drive off the island than to spend a dime in that store read more

Not a good idea referring someone to this place. I took numerous bags of designer clothing, shoes, designer handbags, etc. to this place almost a year ago. Several months later I visited the store and could only find 2 pairs of my shoes. So far I have made $14!! Apparently there is no type of record regarding what I dropped off. I was told whatever is brought in goes in the shop and if it doesn't sell, goes to the Salvation Army. Had I known I wouldn't be able to reclaim my items, I never would have gone here. I have dealt with other consignment shops and none operated like this one. I should have gone elsewhere. read more

Horribe Horrible Horrible. The owner is so mean it left me speechless. I had shopped in the past and recommended to others, but after my last expierience, where she screamed at my two year old, I will never return. She literally went psychotic. The whole store stopped & looked at her. I had $60 worth of stuff that i put back because I will not support an owner that treats their customers so appallingly. read more

I have been shopping here for several years when I stumbled upon them at a block party. If you are a regular, the owner Helena knows what you like. If you are new, she will size you up and make recommendations based on clothing cuts, not actual numbered size. If you are just browsing, she will leave you be to explore and ask questions. Out of the massive wardrobe of clothes I already have, Helena's finds get the most compliments. If you want to consign, she keeps perfect track of your belongings, and will know who would best fit what, including taste, and let you know her inventory. She ONLY selects the best of the best to sell, and I have bought most of them. Handbags, clothes, accessories, everything is designer or unique. read more

This store owner doesn't even deserve one star. What a snotty judgemental woman. I came in here to consign on the recommendation of someone and she treated me like a piece of trash. "Is your stuff even new?" She said. After a few explanations of what I had for her I decided to walk away...little did she know of the brand new Ann Taylor and Banana Republic items I was going offer. Felt like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman..."Big mistake" read more

While the store is ok, the owners' behavior leaves something to be desired. The male owner approached a mother breastfeeding her baby and proceeded to embarrass her by asking her to cover up. They said that her actions caused them to loose a customer, referencing a man who supposedly left because she was doing this very natural and nurturing thing. The mother and her family, who did not speak English very well, were clearly confused. The female owner then looked to me for backup, which I very soundly did not give and defended the mother. I left the store and have no plans on returning. I won't patronize a store that so blatantly disrespects a mother's rights and duties. N.J.S.A. 26:4B-4 provides that mothers can breastfeed anywhere in a public place, as long as the mother is allowed to be there herself. For being located in "America's Greatest Family Resort", it's not too family friendly. read more
