One minute you're cuddling your newborn in your arms. You blink and then he is just inches away from towering over you. This is how quickly my kids grow out of their clothes. A blink is all that takes. Besides growing, other things contest with keeping their clothes at tip top shape. I have all boys so you would think that I'm pretty set. You think that I can pass it all down. Did you read that I have all BOYS?! Dirt, markers, rough play, paint, scissors, food, bugs, yeah, you get the picture. I'm lucky if that clothing will survive for one day of use.
I am a complete fan when I purchase things from this store. I find all sorts of things, in great shape, for great prices. Keiki 2 Keiki also sells books, toys, strollers, everything you need when you have kids. The store uses every inch of space so channel in your hunting spirit when you enter the store.
EXPERIENCE AS A SELLER
It was my first time selling and it was a nice experience. The person assisting me had short hair. She greeted me right away and explained to me the process.
I filled out a really short paper work. I wrote down what I brought, the quantity, and wrote down a general description. The woman told me that I was the fourth person in line and that they would call me when they viewed my items. It took 40 minutes for them to view my items.
I dropped off 52 items of clothing. I took a few pictures of things that I thought they would purchase and a group picture of some of the clothes I tried to sell. Here is the link to the picture:

I also had a new blanket, a new set of books, and a new walk n ride. They purchased all of my new items and 7 pieces of clothing for $15.90 (check) if I had chosen the store credit it would be a little over $20. Picture of the items sold:

They purchased one of my sons Ed Harding shirt, both of the overalls, and the Hurley shirt. I had a set of a Ralph Lauren shirt and shorts but they only purchased the shorts. Here is their link on to what brands they love:

Other Tips:
* You can bring in items on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturdays (NO APPOINTMENT REQUIRED)
* You can bring items in until 4 pm
* You can either accept a check or store credit (store credit is more)
* If you don't pick up your items within 2 days it will be donated
* Take a picture of the items you plan to sell
* Check out their Facebook page to check out their latest finds!
Overall I will definitely be back to purchase more items. Even though I had a nice experience as a seller, I probably won't try to resell again. It wasn't worth gathering everything, driving from Ewa, and planning on window shopping(that turned into eating, buying, and more eating) while I waited for my items to be viewed. Hmmm, maybe I will resale again so I can have an excuse to drive to Kahala to eat, buy, and eat some more. read more
