Where to sell clothes and textiles in Saskatoon

6 businesses in and around Saskatoon that buy used clothes from the public — what each takes, and whether you are offered a purchase, a consignment or a loan.

Verified 2026-09-24 from each organization's own website. We are not affiliated with anyone listed here, nobody pays to be included, and we receive nothing if you sell to them.

How to tell what you have got

Before you call anyone, two minutes with the object settles most of it. None of this needs an expert — it needs a flashlight and a look at the back.

  • Teen and young-adult mall brands from the last 12 to 18 monthsIt buys all seasons year-round, takes walk-ins with no appointment, and requires items freshly laundered and free of odours. Sizes are adult only and the ranges are set per store: the London page gives girls 0 to 30 and up to 6X and guys XS to 4X and 28 to 44 inch waist, while the chain's national sell-to-us page gives girls 0 to 6X and guys 28 to 3X. Check your own store's page rather than assuming. No kids or youth sizes anywhere.
  • Premium outerwear and technical kit in near-new conditionBring it in June, not in October. VSP publishes its calendar: "Spring-Summer intake begins in December and Fall-Winter intake begins in June." By the time the weather turns, a shop is already full of parkas and will decline yours whatever the label.
  • Unworn items with the original tags still onKeep them separate and still tagged. Do not launder them or remove the tags to make them look tidy.

Rarely worth anything

Not a rule, and not a reason to bin something without asking. These are the things people most often expect to be worth money and find are not.

  • Mid-market and fast-fashion labels, at a luxury consignor
  • Clothing with stains, balling, repairs or odours
  • Household linens in bulk: towels, sheets, duvet covers, curtains
  • Single socks, single shoes, rags and fabric scraps
  • Underwear and worn-out basics
  • The whole-house pile, taken as a pile
Second-hand textiles are exempt from federal fibre-content labelling if labelled as second-hand Federal (Textile Labelling and Advertising Regulations, C.R.C., c. 1551, s. 9, under the Textile Labelling Act)

Section 9: "A prescribed consumer textile article that is clearly identified by means of a label as a second-hand article is exempt from the application of section 3 of the Act." The regulations do not define "second-hand", and the exemption is conditional on the article carrying that label. Relevant if you are reselling a quantity of clothing as a business rather than giving it away.

6 places in Saskatoon that take clothes

Cash Canada (Saskatoon)

Buys or lends Not stated — ask
BuysGold, diamonds and luxury jewellery, Watches, Smartphones, Electronics, Power tools, General used merchandise
The dealTwo different transactions, and the site advertises both. A pawn LOAN is secured credit: you hand over the item, take cash, and the item is yours again only if you repay the advance plus the lender's charges within the agreed term. If you do not redeem it, you forfeit the item. An outright SALE ends your interest in the item on the day. The site's own wording is that the Saskatoon shop "offers pay-by-the-day extensions on pawn loans and pawn transactions plus we offer a layaway option on everything we sell" - the layaway is for people buying from them, not for people selling to them. Their stated promotion, quoted from the page: "If you have pawned an item with any competitor in Saskatoon within the last three months, simply bring us the receipt, and we will lend you 10% more on that same item." That 10% is the size of a LOAN advance, not a price paid for an outright sale. No interest rate, fee schedule or redemption period is published on the site.
Where102 Avenue P S, Saskatoon, SK S7M 2V9
No interest rate, fee or redemption period is published on the site, so the cost of a loan here is not knowable before you ask in store. As a pawnshop this business is licensed under Saskatoon's Business License Bylaw, 2002 and its pawn transactions and outright purchases are recorded and reported to police under The Pawned Property (Recording) Act. Two pieces of identification, one of them a photo ID of a type listed in the regulations, are required by law before either transaction can be completed.

GMG Jewellers

Buys outright Bring it to them
BuysGold jewellery, all karats and conditions, Silver jewellery and sterling silver items, Luxury pre-owned watches, Gold and silver coins and bars, Broken or unwanted pieces, Estate jewellery
The dealAn outright purchase at a fixed retail shop, not a loan - nothing on the page offers credit against an item. Their site states all assessments are completed on-site by trained professionals using certified equipment, based on current rates, and that no appointment is needed for standard buying and selling. They also offer separate professional appraisals. No percentage of spot price and no payout formula is published.
Where#1 - 105 21st St. E, Saskatoon, SK
Scrap gold is priced on metal content - weight and karat - rather than on what a piece cost new or would fetch as a finished piece of jewellery. The site does not state what fraction of the spot metal price is paid. A sale here is final, which is what distinguishes it from a pawn loan, where the item can be recovered by repaying the advance.

Juniper & Oak Consignments

Consignment May collect — ask
BuysFurniture, Home decor, Dishware and decorative items, Modern, retro and vintage pieces, Clothing, shoes, purses and accessories, Jewellery
Won't takeItems with stains or odours, Items with holes or unravelling seams, Missing buttons or broken zippers, Items with noticeable wear
The dealConsignment, not a sale - you receive nothing on the day you hand the item over, and nothing at all if it does not sell. Their published terms: the consignor receives 50% of the net selling price and the store keeps 50%. The store sets the price. Items are displayed for a maximum of 90 days, with a possible 30-day extension on selected pieces. Days 1-30 run at the initial price; the price drops 25% for days 31-60 and by a further 25% for each 30 days after that. Their policy also states that after 90 days, unsold items priced under $300 become the property of the store and are donated or sold for charity. Payments over $25 for a month's sales are mailed on or after the 15th of the following month, with smaller amounts accumulating until they reach the $25 threshold. A $1.00 monthly portal fee and credit card processing fees are deducted from consignor payments. Taking an item back before the consignment period ends carries a 12% storage fee calculated on the net selling price. For furniture they can arrange professional movers, and they state additional fees apply for major repairs or professional cleaning.
Where808 Broadway Ave, Saskatoon, SK
Payment comes only after a sale, and then on or after the 15th of the following month. The published markdown schedule reduces the price 25% every 30 days an item goes unsold, and items under $300 still unsold after 90 days become the store's property under their stated terms. Moving, repair, cleaning, portal and card processing costs are deducted from what you receive, and an early withdrawal carries a 12% storage fee.

Once Upon A Child (Saskatoon)

Buys outright Bring it to them
BuysChildren's clothing, Children's shoes, Toys, Children's books, Baby gear, Kids' furniture
The dealOutright purchase - the site states you get cash on the spot for the items they accept, with no appointment necessary. Their site notes each location is individually owned and operated, so what a particular store accepts and its exact terms can differ; confirm with the Saskatoon store. No payout percentage is published.
WhereTwo Saskatoon location pages are live on their own locator, Saskatoon West and Saskatoon East. Neither page publishes the street address, phone number or opening times; use the locator's directions or email link.
No public premises listed. We could not find a street address or phone on their site.
No payout rate is stated and the store's refusal list is not published, so what they will take and what they will pay are only knowable in store. Second-hand children's clothing, shoes, equipment, furniture and safety devices are on the exemption list in the provincial pawned-property regulations.

BuysGently used clothing, footwear, outerwear and athletic wear, Accessories, Girls' sizes 0-6x, Guys' sizes 28-3x
Won't takeStyles outside the last 6 months of current trends, Items not in gently used condition
The dealOutright purchase, not consignment. Staff review what you bring while you wait, make an offer on the pieces they want, and the site states they "pay cash on the spot for all items accepted." You keep whatever they turn down. The location page states they "buy current styles within the last 6 months" and "buy all day every day" with "No appointment necessary." No payout percentage or formula is published. (The "up to 70% off mall retail" figure on their site is the discount for people buying from the store, not a seller payout rate.)
WhereTheir location page for Saskatoon is live, but it does not publish the street address, phone number or opening times - use the page's directions link or email form.
No public premises listed. We could not find a street address or phone on their site.

Prairie Pawnbrokers

Buys or lends Not stated — ask
BuysGold, silver and jewellery, High-end watches, Flat-screen TVs and electronics, Tablets and smartphones, Gaming systems, Guitars and musical instruments, Mountain bikes, Golf clubs, Car audio equipment, Tools, Indigenous art, Vehicles, Collectibles
The dealThe site describes pawning, buying and trading as separate things. Pawning is a loan against the item, and the list they say they will lend against includes gold, high-end watches, jewellery, electronics, tablets and smartphones, guitars, collectibles and vehicles - they specifically advertise auto pawns. Buying outright is a different transaction and their buy/trade list is wider, covering TVs, bikes, golf clubs, tools, gaming systems, car audio and Indigenous art. If you pawn, the item is collateral and is forfeited if you do not redeem it by the deadline; if you sell, it is gone on the day and you keep the cash. No interest rate, loan term or redemption period is stated anywhere on the site. The site says the business is locally owned and has operated 22+ years.
Where801 20 St W, Saskatoon, SK S7M 0Y2
A vehicle pawn means handing over a vehicle as security for a loan; if the loan is not repaid by the deadline the vehicle is forfeited. No rates, terms or redemption periods are published on the site. Two pieces of identification including a photo ID of a type listed in the provincial regulations are required by law before either a pawn or an outright sale can be completed, and the transaction is reported to police.

All of the following was verified against primary sources fetched directly: The Pawned Property (Recording) Act, c P-4.2 and The Pawned Property (Recording) Regulations, c P-4.2 Reg 1 (both downloaded from the Office of the King's Printer at publications.saskatchewan.ca), and The Business License Bylaw, 2002, Bylaw No. 8075, codified to Bylaw No. 9684, August 31 2020 (downloaded from saskatoon.ca). WHO THE PROVINCIAL RULES BIND. This is the point that decides whether the rest applies to a given shop. Section 2(e) of the Act defines a pawnbroker as \"a person who regularly conducts more than 10 pawn transactions per month\". The Act binds pawnbrokers. It does not impose identification or police-reporting duties on every second-hand dealer in the province, so an ordinary used-electronics shop, record shop, bookshop or jeweller that is not a pawnbroker is outside it. Section 2(g) defines an \"unconditional sale\" as the purchase of an article by a pawnbroker outright - so when a pawnbroker buys something outright, that sale is caught by the Act too, not just the loans. One further condition: section 7(4) says the identification and reporting section applies to a pawnbroker only where the chief of police has given at least 90 days' notice; in Saskatoon, bylaw section 27.7 has required electronic recording and reporting of all pawn transactions since January 1, 2005. IDENTIFICATION - TWO PIECES, ONE WITH A PHOTOGRAPH. Regulation section 4(1) requires a pawnbroker, before a pawn transaction or an unconditional sale, to obtain your name, address, telephone number and date of birth; a description of you including height, weight, gender, hair colour and eye colour; and the identification record numbers from two pieces of identification. One of the two must be one of the following types and only counts if it carries your photograph: a valid driver's licence issued by a Canadian province or territory or a US state; a passport issued by the government of origin; a Certificate of Indian Status Card issued by the Government of Canada; a Certificate of Citizenship Card issued by the Government of Canada; or a Conditional Release Card issued by Correctional Services of Canada. An original birth certificate may be used only if the accompanying second piece carries your photograph. Section 7(2) of the Act sets the consequence, quoted exactly: if a person \"refuses or is unable to provide the information required pursuant to subsection (1), the pawnbroker shall not complete the pawn transaction or unconditional sale.\" SERIAL NUMBERS. Regulation section 5 bars a pawnbroker from taking an article that bears or customarily bears a serial number \"unless the serial number is clearly legible and has not been totally or partially altered, removed or obscured.\" WHAT GETS RECORDED AND WHO SEES IT. Regulation section 4(1)(d) requires a detailed description of the article - manufacturer, year of manufacture, make and model, serial number, identifying marks, any title on the item, the media type for a CD, tape, vinyl record, DVD or VHS, and for jewellery the type, weight, karat, engraving or micro-reference, and the number, type, colour, clarity and shape of each gemstone. Section 4(2) requires the date and time, the price paid or the amount loaned on pawn, and the name of the person conducting the transaction; the dealer must issue you a receipt and retain a hard copy signed by both of you. Regulation section 6 requires the pawnbroker to record this electronically in a format approved by the chief of police immediately after the transaction, provide it to the chief of police as soon as practicable, and file a report at least once each day the shop is open - including a nil report on days with no transactions. A pawn or an outright sale at a pawnshop is therefore an identified, police-reported transaction. EXEMPTIONS - MOST HOUSE-CLEAROUT GOODS ARE OUTSIDE THE ACT. Regulation section 3(f) lists articles the Act does not apply to: second-hand books, magazines, journals, periodicals and other similar printed materials; postage stamps; second-hand infant's, toddler's or children's clothing, shoes, equipment, furniture or safety devices; adult clothing or shoes except leather or fur jackets and coats; second-hand cookware, glassware and eating utensils that do not contain precious metals; waste paper, waste cardboard and waste glass; second-hand furniture; second-hand appliances including refrigerators, freezers, stoves, washers, dryers, dishwashers and garbage compactors; and non-motorized lawn or garden equipment and tools. Section 3 also exempts retail returns for refund, exchange or credit, and acquisitions from a law enforcement agency, from a merchant, retailer or wholesaler with a permanent place of business, from a trustee in bankruptcy, executor, administrator or receiver who shows proof of position, or from a public official acting under judicial authority. SASKATOON'S BYLAW - PART V, PAWNBROKERS. Bylaw 8075 defines a \"pawnshop\" as \"a business wherein more than 10 pawn transactions per month are conducted\" and adopts the Act's definitions of pawnbroker, pawn transaction and unconditional sale. Section 27.2 requires a licence to operate a pawnshop, renewed annually. Section 27.3 bars a pawnshop from being located within 160 metres of another, measured property line to property line, with grandfathering for pawnshops that held a valid licence on October 4, 2004. Section 27.4 sets holding periods: a pawnbroker \"shall hold any property received in a pawn transaction or unconditional sale for at least two consecutive clear business days\", shall not display it for sale for 30 days, and shall not sell it until it has been displayed for sale for at least 15 days after that 30-day period. Section 27.5: a pawnbroker \"shall not engage in a pawn transaction or conditional sale with a person under the age of 18 years.\" Section 27.6: a pawnbroker \"shall not accept personal identification in a pawn transaction\" - your ID document itself cannot be the pawned article. Section 27.7 requires electronic recording and reporting of all pawn transactions under the provincial Act, effective January 1, 2005. PAWNING VERSUS SELLING. Both happen at the same counter and the paperwork looks similar, so the distinction is worth stating plainly. A pawn transaction is defined in the Act as depositing an article with a pawnbroker at interest or in expectation of profit, where it is express or implied that the article may be redeemed or repurchased. You get cash now, the shop holds the item, and you get it back only by repaying the advance plus the lender's charges by the deadline. Miss the deadline and the item is forfeited and sold, and the cash you took is the whole of what you received. An unconditional sale is final on the day. None of the Saskatoon pawnshops whose sites were checked publish interest rates, fees or redemption periods anywhere online, so those figures exist only in the store.
