Consignor FAQs
There is not a limit to the number of TOTAL items that a consignor can enter, however, we encourage you to bring your best items so that you sell a high percentage of your things. A consignor who brings 75 great items will do better than a consignor who brings 100 items that are poor quality and priced too high.
Option 1 - Let us print them for you free of charge. You'll pick them up and label your items at the store on one of the Drop Off Days. (This is most popular.) Option 2 - Let us print them for you free of charge. You'll pick them up (on our set up day) and label your items at home. Then bring your already labeled items on Check In Days. You will need to sign a Release of Guarantee form. Option 3 - Print your barcode labels at home using a COLOR PRINTER. Follow the directions CAREFULLY that appear after you enter your items. Label your items at home. Bring your labelled items on Check In Days. You will need to sign a Release of Guarantee form.
Consignors enjoy the experience when they allow themselves enough time to get all their items prepared and entered without feeling rushed. Organizing your items by gender and size will allow for easy entering and a quick drop off. Using our Voice Entry feature is a HUGE time saver for consignors as it allows you to enter 100 items in just 30 minutes. Consider printing your barcode labels at home to expedite consignor drop off.
YES!!! We are allowing consignors and pre-sale ticket holders to bring one guest with them to the Pre-Sale to help them shop!
We strongly suggest that you NOT bring your children to the Pre-Sale. Just bring a tape measure and their measurements and enjoy a mom's dayout!
We suggest you set the price at 30% of the retail value. Baby Equipment, Furniture and Large Indoor/Outdoor Toys usually sell for more and are in high demand. We have an abundance of 0-6 month sizes, so they must be priced competitively in order to sell. Maternity and Junior clothing are not shopped as heavily, so price these competitively, also. You can use our Pricing Points Guide.
Yes, but you will need to enter your items online in separate batches - one for each sale. Be VERY sure you enter your items for the correct sale.
NO, please do not use wire hangers. Clothes DO NOT stay on wire hangers during our busy shopping time and your items will not be purchased if they are on the floor. **Use childrens plastic hangers for sizes 10 and below. Use larger plastic hangers for sizes 12 and above. You can use any plastic hanger you have received from a store (like Old Navy or Target) No wire hangers, please!
Place them in a ziploc bag and then seal the ziploc with clear packing tape. This is important!
First, be sure to affix the barcode label to the string tag; do not stick it directly onto the item or the bag. Then attach the string tag to the item and tag inside the bag. Make sure the tag is visible.
We have a few shopping carts that will be available for shopping. These carts will be sanitized between customers. We suggest you bring a laundry basket or tote, a large shopping bag, or a stroller. All large bags will need to be checked at the door.
If it meets our "excellence quality" standards, then group it together with one or two more like items. Pin them together on a hanger, or group them in a ziploc bag and put one price for the entire group.
Please do what is necessary to make your clothes look clean and nice. Remember, the better they look, the better they sell!
