The proposal will be sent to you by email within 2 weeks of the clothes' drop off date.
How much will I get?
The price quote applies to the entire box. It varies from box to box, as it depends on the style, original price, brand, quality, quantity and category of each item.
If items are in high demand or are from a high-quality brand, we’ll pay more for them. We’ll also pay more for items that are new and still have their tags on, as long as they meet our selection criteria.
We also take into account the work involved in selecting, refreshing, styling, photographing and storing clothes, as well as the work involved in attracting and serving our customers. On average, you will receive between 30% and 50% of our sales price.
It all adds up! Remember, unlike consignment stores, we buy all your items from you right away - you don't have to wait for your items to sell to get your money.
We value those who, in addition to selling, also aim to buy clothes for their children at Petit Fox. Therefore, payment for clothes is made exclusively through store credit.
After all, our mission is to stimulate the circular economy, encouraging the reuse of clothes and contributing to a reduction in textile waste.
Can I decline the quote?
Yes, you are completely free to decline our quote.
If you do not accept our quote and wish to get all your clothes back, a fee of €10 will be applied for each 5kg package to cover shipping and logistics costs. Alternatively, you can collect them directly from our headquarters in Ericeira, paying only the initial shipping and logistics costs of the order to Petit Fox in the amount of €5.*
*Applicable only in cases where the clothes were initially sent to us by post.
Please note that all clothing not collected from Petit Fox within 10 days will automatically be sent for donation.
Why should I sell to Petit Fox when I can make more money selling through other platforms?
You might be able to make more money selling your clothes individually through platforms like Facebook or Vinted, but most parents find that it's not worth the extra time and effort.
It’s easy to forget how much time it takes to take photos, price items, upload images, edit the listing, answer phone calls or respond to messages, and wait for the purchase that often never comes through.
Selling to Petit Fox ends up resulting in more money for less, much less work!
When will payment be made?
We will do everything we can to process the evaluation of your garments as quickly as possible. Once your package is dropped off, you will receive your quote within 2 weeks.
Your store credit will be associated with your email and will be available for use within 24 hours of accepting the proposal.
To use your store credit, simply log in to our online store. At checkout, you can choose to use your store credit as a payment method.

I carefully chose the items I sent. Why didn't you keep them all?
Our goal is to buy every item you send us, believe us. However, in order to guarantee the quality of the products sold in our online store, each item must go through a strict evaluation process.
We do not repair or wash any clothing that arrives to us, so any item with stains, yellowing, missing buttons or holes, etc., will be rejected. New items with tags may also be rejected depending on their condition.
If too few items meet our selection criteria, we reserve the right to reject the entire package. You will be charged for shipping costs for returning the package (€9 for a package up to 5kgs, to cover shipping costs in both directions - heavier packages will be charged according to weight).
What happens to rejected items?
Items rejected by Petit Fox may still be used by other children or new-moms. We may donate them to charity on your behalf. If you wish to have the rejected items returned to you, you will be required to pay the shipping costs, which are €5 per package up to 5kg.
Please note that CTT will keep your package for a maximum of 5 days from the moment you receive your SMS/notification. If you have not collected your order within 5 days, it will be returned to Petit Fox and you will have to pay the shipping costs for it to be sent back to you.
Please note that all clothing not collected from Petit Fox within 10 days will automatically be sent for donation.
