on Citysearch Sep 21, 2008I'd been here once only with my husband to sell our baby clothes. The service seemed fine. We just had to wait a bit because there were other customers before us. We brought a BIG bag and they took most of it and we left the... (more)

on Judys Book Aug 23, 2007I have been to pretty much all the resale kids stores in the bay area, and i will have to say that Lauren's Closet has BY FAR the best selection around. You can find something from infants to now they carry Juniors... (more)

on Citysearch May 06, 2007I have to agree with the previous posters that the store owners are extremely unfriendly and unwilling to help. I have brought clothes a few times and have left with an impression of my clothes not being good enough.... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 02, 2007I am confused why the store is picky when it comes to buying kids clothing, since the racks are filled with faded, shrunken, and cheap looking clothes. Granted, there are occassional cute items, but I would think the... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 27, 2007I went to Lauren's Closet looking for mittens for my baby. First, I was ignored by the salesperson, then I got a total attitude for asking for help. Hmmm . . . something tells me she is in the wrong business.... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 22, 2007We have. We live in Alameda & have had too many horrible experiences there. The staff (mother/owner and grandmother are the worst offenders) is rude & doesn't seem to care if you come back or not. Used clothes tend to be... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 03, 2007I agree that the people who work here are NOT nice. I come over from San Leandro to shop and I really feel like they only talk to the regulars, whomever they are.... Everytime I have gone, I was ignored and treated like an... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 01, 2006Well this is the place to shop. They have cute clothes,brand names, and major snobs. I think that the staff at Lauren's closet need reality checks. They are in resale of used clothes. You are not at Nordstroms selling... (more)

on Judys Book Nov 16, 2006I have spent $100's of dollars at Lauren's closest over of years. Their clothes are very hit or miss since they are second hand. After looking at lots of drab worn ugly clothing, I may find one or two items sometimes... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 10, 2006I was really disappointed with the staff. They act irritated when you ask a question and treat you like you're stupid for not knowing. They certainly won't ask you if you need help, you have to bother them to get it. They... (more)

on Judys Book Mar 28, 2006Lauren's Closet has lots of very nice, barely-used clothing for the fashion-conscious tot. The staff can be aloof to downright condescending, but the clothes are very nice, as are the toys. A good place to find a... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 03, 2005The clothes are not as popular as the ones available in the huge department stores, but here you can find more unique clothes locally. I recommend this store because there are very nice people who work here, dedicated... (more)
