About Consignment
What is Consignment?
We are consignment, not thrift. All items must be in saleable condition to be accepted. Be sure your merchandise is in the best shape for sale. Our selection is based on our knowledge of market demand and sales experience. If we find any defects on any items we have already selected, we will donate those items.
Conditions
- New with tags or lightly worn sells best
- Freshly laundered, no stains (check collars and under arms especially)
- No holes or missing buttons
- Pressed or steamed if needed
- Remove pet hair and “pilling”
- Must be hung on hangers for processing
- We must limit the amount of inventory we accept to 200 items per customers (Jewelry is not included in the 200 count)
More INfo
Shirts, sweatshirts, sweaters, jackets and dresses must be on hangers. Pants and shorts can be folded in bins – no garbage bags. Hangers can be loaned in advance; we will return all your hangers and bins.
We consign Men’s and Women’s clothing and accessories, as well as in-style home decor and select quality furniture. We also take purses, shoes, jewelry, all in good condition.
