Refinery Childrens Consignment
2834 S Sherwood Forest Blvd, Baton Rouge, LA 70816
REfinery opened its doors at its present location in July, l989. We believed there was a need in Baton Rouge for an upscale children’s consignment shop. We were right! REfinery was a success from the get-go. We are proud to offer the best selection of gently worn better label fashions for newborn through children's size 10 and the mother-to-be. We also carry baby furniture and accessories and toys. Our fine reputation has grown. Loyal customers and consignors come from all over Louisiana, Mississippi and surrounding states. If you have wonderful things to consign, we can turn them into cash, fast! If you have expensive taste and smart money, we are the place to shop!

Provided by YP.comThe tall, younger, black woman working behind the counter was inconsiderate, rude, bossy, and unprofessional. Not only did she lack manners, but her shirt was not completely covering her backside which exposed a few of her back rolls. Very distasteful. I went there last Thursday, and bought a few outfits, bows, and a baby carrier. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I went back with my friend Monday, and she bought a bouncer, LSU outfit, and smocked dress. Very nice clothing, and the staff was once again friendly. I went back yesterday to try and get rid of some of my daughters things she didn't need and was treated BEYOND POORLY. I went into the store yesterday with a handful of clothes that were on hangers in one hand and a bagful of clothes in my other hand. Noone was at the counter. I asked the lady standing next to the counter if she was also selling, and she said yes. Then the above-mentioned lady comes to the counter and says hi to me. I told her I wanted to sell my items. She snapped, "you have a group ahead of you." (That I already knew.) I said ok. She asked if I had sold to them before, and I said no. She handed me a form to fill out. Their counter was covered with closed, plastic bins. I laid the clothes that were on hangers on top of one of the closed bins. She snapped, "mam, you cannot put your stuff there. I need you to pick it up and put it in a bin." So I picked my stuff back up. I wouldn't talk to my dog as rudely and bossy as she did me. She then hung a plastic bin off the side of the counter, and told me, "just leave it on the floor." I had my stuff in my hands since I had been reprimanded like a child and apparently broke some sort of company rule by sitting my stuff on the counter. Where was this bin before I was asked to fill out the paperwork with the hangers and bag in my hands? She gave me the stink eye as I put my stuff in the bin she was dangling off the counter because I didn't put the bin on the floor then put my stuff in it! I was so befuddled by the experience that I left my purse in the bin accidentally. I will tell my friends, and anyone else I meet that I was treated poorly, and not to shop there. I will not be bringing my high chair or stroller there, either.

Provided by SuperpagesI enjoy shopping for clothes for my nieces and little nephew. They all grow so quickly and finding affordable clothing gifts can be difficult. I came across Refinery in Baton Rouge. Refinery is a consignment shop. At first, I was a little skeptical about buying anything from this type of place.When I walked into Refinery I noticed immediately a nice fresh scent. It reminded me of babies! The wall was full of beautiful girl dresses. They ranged in sizes. Some of the dresses even looked handmade. I was very impressed with the selection of holiday dresses at Refinery. There were different colors, styles and even little hair pieces to go with some of the outfits. Browsing through them was so much fun. Recommended!
