  Selling Tips

Clothing

It is most efficient for us to review items that are neatly folded or laid in a laundry basket, 13 gallon tote or kitchen bag. We ask that all sets be put together as well. Please NO hangers, garage sale stickers or safety pins.

Please bring freshly laundered, buttoned, snapped and zipped clothing that is in good condition without stains, holes, odors, fading or excessive wear. 

We buy all seasons of children’s clothing all year and in season adult clothing!

Equipment and toys

Please be sure your items are in working condition and include all of the original parts. Items and toys must meet the current safety standards and be new within the last 4 years.

Haute Tot is always keeping up with product recalls, and safety information is a top priority to ensure the safety of all toys and to guarantee a high-quality selection. Making sure all products are up to standards is a MUST! 

Appointments, Walk-ins, & Drop-offs

You may choose any one of three buying options: selling by appointment, walking in to sell, or dropping off your items. There is a limit of 1 laundry basket, 1 - 13 gallon tote or 1 kitchen bag if you are doing a walk in. There is a limit of 2 laundry baskets, 2 - 13 gallon totes, or 2 kitchen bags if you are doing a drop off.

APPOINTMENTS

Appointments may be set up by calling 417-720-1602. Come in with a laundry basket &/or toys and equipment. Wait in store and have an offer in 30-60 minutes. Having an appointment minimizes the chances of having to wait. 

WALK-INS

 This is for those who value convenience. Walk-in hours are Tuesday through Friday from 10:30-4:30. The buying center operates on a first come first serve basis. Come in with a laundry basket &/or toys and equipment, wait in store for an offer. If a buyer is unavailable in a manageable time, you may ask to Drop-off your things for later processing [See below] or schedule an appointment. 

*Note: It is a good idea to call us 417-720-1602 before you come to the store to check the current wait time.

DROP-OFFS

This option is open to customers having once sold to Haute Tot Upscale Kids Resale.  A drop off form is completed, the buy will be completed at a later date (usually within 5 days). The buying center takes a limited number of drops offs per day, call ahead to check availability.
