Boomerang Kids Old Ottawa South

If I could I would give zero stars. I brought items to this location in on March 1, 2019. The woman working at the time was very rude and said that her job was not the consignment side but she would help me anyway. Since the website clearly indicates that people can bring items during store hours I figured there would be someone willing to help a new consignor to the store. I continuously tried to check the online system as of April 1st, with no luck. Finally I called beginning of May for an update on my account and see if any items sold/ needed to be picked up. I was told that items were ok until June 29, 2019 and to pick up before then. Today, June 13, I went to go pick up my items. As I still cannot see any information about my account online I went in and asked for assistance, explaining this is my first time picking up items and wasn't sure how it worked since I cannot see my account online. The same woman from March reminded me again that she doesn't work the consignment side. I asked if I could be provided a list of the items that were left so that I could know what I'm looking for. She then yelled at me, while I'm holding my 9 month old, and with two other customers in the store about how it's a new system, I should know what I brought in, and to search the racks for my stuff. I left the store with 6 of my items and $8 from my account. Considering I brought in 19 (still have the receipt) it's fair to say some things are missing. Either items have yet to be put out or I just couldn't find them. Either way, I wouldn't suggest consigning here. If you wish to donate your items to the store for them to sell and take the money, go ahead. Personally, I've consigned with other stores in Ottawa not geared toward maternity or children and I'm saddened and shocked by my experience with Boomerang.

Love this store! Kids grow so quickly and we often bring in nearly new clothes as well as purchase them at the store. Local, sustainable, great service.

My wife’s been coming here for years. Now our kids are a bit more grown we don’t buy from here as much but it’s nice to have had a place where good quality clothes can be upcycled and bought. Also one of the few places locally that sold kleen Kanteens that our kids seem to lose every two years like clockwork. If you return things here they get sold and you get some credit for the next time.

Don't live in the area anymore, but I was surprised that boomerang kids is still here. Went to buy a little bike from this store years ago when I was still a kid. Still have it today somewhere, and it is somehow still functional (I can't use it without breaking my back though). The only bad thing that happened to me here was when I was little and I tripped and fell and started crying. Still remember this to this day.

#SupportLocal When we found out we were pregnant, we did our research on items that we would need, and Boomerang Kids Old Ottawa South was our go to. They have amazing staff, and a wide array of items, that you could come back days later, and find new things... It's always a great adventure. Now that they have gone to having an online store - I have found it even more convenient to try to find what I need, or to quickly peruse their inventory. Definitely have been promoting Boomerang Kids Old Ottawa South, as well as other locations, because it is more important now than ever to support businesses like Boomerang. But also, kids outgrow their clothes, toys, and equipment, why not help parents and families who don't have the luxury of buying brand new? If you love to support local, if you love a good deal, if you love reducing waste, if you love the idea of giving back - Boomerang is the business model for your business.

Boomerang Kids offers an amazing selection of consigned clothes at a fraction of their retail price. There are so many awesome deals to be had! Good for the environment, good for families, easy on the wallet- wins all around!

Store is great and many items. Friendly staff. I brought in 2 monitors, and star wars toys 8 items in total. I received 19.00 plus change. Cancelled and not impressed with the money I received.

It's easy to buy from Boomerang OOS, even online, because their quality is so high. Everything I buy looks like new. I know from experience they reject items for very minor flaws, so I'm always confident when I shop there.
