This store seems to have closed down. I never get a call back when I would call to get my sales updates/credit.
The woman running it essentially took my clothes to sell without the decency of calling to share whether anything sold or not or that she was closing the business down.

This is a great boutique, both for buying stylish clothes and selling things that you’re moving on in your own wardrobe.

I brought my clothes into consign and we had a very nice conversation , then store mysteriously closed for over 2 weeks.. After 3 weeks I finally heard from her, got my clothes back (she had removed them from rack ) Entire store re arranged now with a focus on jewelry. Will try Cross Roads Trading

The owner is a very kind, thoughtful person. I think that some consignments shops have not done well during these last 2.5-3 years, in the response to tightening of the belt. The demographic in this part of the Bay Area has been downsizing, so there may be some bargains to be had. Stop and take a look, you may be pleasantly surprised.

Don't shop here I bought a sweater for my niece here and she ended up with flea bites on arms and chest. She does not have pets nor is around them because she is allergic. The sweater and other items s had to be thrown out. The store owner was rude or didn't understand or pretended to not understand she needed to sale and only accept freshly cleaned items. Be aware if you shop here there is a reason she has so much unsaleable clothes now I know.

I co-sign and shop here. This is a lovely shop with well curated style and super customer service. I highly recommend it.

The owner was very knowledgeable and eager to help. The displays were beautiful and well organized, especially the jewelry section. There were many quality pieces at affordable prices.

I walked in and I was welcomed by the owner, who showed me around and answered any questions I had. The whole store has a very warm and inviting feeling. The selection had a lot of variety, and I was very pleased with the service and products that I purchased. I will definitely be coming back with my own consignments, and I highly recommend this store to anyone looking for unique pieces and clothing, especially in this limited time of business with the Coronavirus.

I love this place. I always find something here. Marabel, the shopkeeper, is very sweet and helpful. Consigning is easy too. Perhaps my favorite place to consign (and I always end up buying a thing or two in my visits, so everyone is happy).

Really happy with shopping experiences here. Very reasonably priced styles and a good variety of brands. Heavenly selection of shoes! It's a challenge to leave without purchasing something...

Great place for consignment selling! The owner took and sold 75% of my stuff unlike snooty annoying rockridge rags! This lady knows her stuff! There is a bit of language barrier and some delay in getting back to you because she is a one woman shop but be patient - your stuff will sell and she knows what to select! My new go to place to sell and have really nice items!!

I an always delighted to find something very special at Trendy. Alicia, the lovely owner always knows what I am looking for,such as French Arche shoes (a fortune new),special purses and specific brands that come in to her store. I found some great ,almost brand new "NMDJ's"-(Not My Daughters Jeans). They are normally so pricey. Alicia appears to be on the quiet side, but is actually VERY warm and zeros in sharply on just what each unique customer is looking for. She is articulate,and I have never have trouble understanding her English. I totally disagree with one very rude and arrogant Yelp reviewer(10/5/2016) who said the owners skills for communication are lacking.NOT TRUE at all ! She herself lacks a sense of 'cultural competence' obviously. So,I always find a hidden treasure in this store. Go for it and check weekly.You have to keep stopping by this store to keep up with the special items there. Lauren H. North Berkeley resident

The communicated skills at Trendy are really lacking. I called the day before my two month consignment was up, asking when I could pick up my things. She said she would give me a call back. Two weeks later and no call back. I called again today and luckily, it didn't sound like she had given my things away- I would have been furious if she had. It's also incredibly inconvenient they aren't open on Sundays, even just for a few hours. I work Saturdays, and don't get home on weekdays until after they're closed, so I have to have someone else pick up my remaining items.

Ok. Maybe I had a bad day in my previous review. Indeed it was not open. But I gave it another chance. And have come back 3x to consign. New owner is great. She's done a great job updating the place. And definitely has a variety of more clothes, accessories and shoes than the previous owner. When I've gone I've also left with a few more "new" items. She even remembers my name which was not the case before. I'm allowed to have a change of heart, right? Will be back to consign and buy regularly.

I just consigned for the first time with this shop in December. I noted the date by which I had to reach out if I wanted to pick up unsold items. I called a few days before the deadline, and left a voicemail that was never returned. The next week, I went in to ask in person about my items, and picked up a check for two items that it turned out had sold. The woman at the counter told me she wasn't sure if she still had my 7 (!) unsold items or if she had donated them--she said she'd need a few days to look. When I mentioned I had left a voicemail, she didn't acknowledge that. I wouldn't have minded had she followed up by that Wednesday, as she promised me. She didn't! I called again a few days after that, explained that I had already called once and visited once, and was still awaiting a reply, and she told me she'd get back to me within two days. Again, no response. My advice to others: only consign if you're willing to donate your clothes if they don't sell. The shop isn't as professional as others in the area and they seem either overwhelmed or disorganized, so you risk losing your items entirely if they don't sell.
