WHAT IS A CHILDREN’S CONSIGNMENT SALE?
A children’s consignment sale is a place where sellers prepare and price their quality, new and gently used items and bring them to us to sell on their behalf. Prices are generally 70%-80% below the original retail prices. The seller receives 70% of the sale price of their items.
WHAT ITEMS CAN I SELL?
New and gently used clothing from newborn to Juniors and maternity items, shoes, baby equipment such as car seats/booster seats (must be less than 5 years old), strollers, furniture, floor gyms, swings, toys, books, games, movies, outdoor equipment & bikes.
HOW DO I REGISTER TO BE A CONSIGNOR?
You must submit a completed registration form and then you will be assigned a consignor number. If you consigned with us at the previous sale, you may be assigned your same consignor number. We do not charge you to be a consigner! You must provide a self-addressed, stamped envelope during receiving in order to receive your check. Please make sure it is a #10 envelope which is approximately 4”x 9”. Click HERE to register.
HOW DO I PREPARE MY ITEMS FOR SALE?
As your child outgrows items or gets new toys, simply collect them in one place. Then a month or two before the sale, begin sorting and preparing your items for the sale. Remove anything with stains, rips, or missing parts. All toys that require batteries need to have working batteries in them. You will create your own tags using 3x5 index cards. See “How Do I Tag My Items” for complete tagging instructions.
HOW DO I TAG MY ITEMS?
All items must be properly tagged using 3x5 index cards and following the detailed tagging instructions. Colored tags will be sold at full price and unsold items will be returned to you. Items with white tags will be marked down to ½ price on Saturday and unsold items will be donated to charity at the conclusion of the sale. Click here for an example and complete tagging instructions.
HOW DO I PRICE MY ITEMS?
A good “rule of thumb” to use when pricing your items is 20%-30% of the original purchase price. All prices must be in .50-cent increments with .50 being the minimum price. Do not overprice items you really want to sell.
WORK WITH US AND SHOP BEFORE THE PUBLIC
As this event continues to grow in size and merchandise, there is an ever-increasing demand for volunteers, not only during the sale times, but during set-up and take-down as well. Please consider joining the wonderful volunteers who help make this event a success! In exchange for your time, we give our volunteers a chance to shop early and get the best selection before we open the sale to the public. Click HERE to volunteer.
HOW AND WHEN WILL I BE PAID?
Unless you indicate another option on your registration form, the payment is a 70% seller-30% SOTH split on all items. The 30% is tax deductible to the seller! When your drop your items off during the receiving times, you will also drop off a self-addressed stamped envelope. Please make sure it is a #10 envelope that is approximately 4”x9”. You will receive your check in 3 weeks or less after the sale.
WANT TO JUST DONATE YOUR TIME?
If you don’t want to tag your items, we do accept any items as outlined in the “What Can I Sell” section. We will price and sell these items and you will be provided with a tax donation receipt.
