Trading up
At Bird's Eye Boutiue we are so pleased to offer a space to exchange all those lovely clothes hanging in your closet for credit to buy your next favourite item, or possibly a whole wardrobe. The credit is actually good for anything in store including jewelry, home goods and body care products. Though we don't sell items on consignment, if you have top quality womens style items we will trade the items for immediate store credit.

Carefully go through all the items you want to clear out of your closet. Make sure there are no sticky or broken zippers, stains, pilling, wear, tears and holes, missing buttons or other flaws.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Please note that unfortunately, we try not to accept ANY item from a smoking household, as the smell of cigarette is very persistent - especially to non-smokers who will notice it immediately. Tobacco smell cannot be easily eliminated even after repeated washes, and generous doses of perfume or fabric spray will make it worse.
