Consignor FAQs
We have a limit of 400 items per consignor ID in North Cincinnati. As always, 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 marked too high. There is NO limit to the TOTAL number of items you can bring.
Option 1 - Let us print them for you free of charge. You can 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 early (the day before check in) and label your items at home. Then bring your already labeled items on Drop Off 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 Drop Off Days. You will need to sign a Release of Guarantee form.
We are allowing volunteers and consignors to bring either their spouse or parent with them to help them shop, not a sister or best friend. You may give your guest pass to your sister or friend & meet them at the Guest Sale later in the evening. Our volunteers and consignors have worked hard to earn this special shopping privilege and we want to honor them. We will be checking!
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 night out!
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. Maternity and Junior clothing are not shopped as heavily, so price these competitively, also.
Use children's plastic hangers for sizes 10 and below. Use larger plastic hangers for sizes 12 and above. Plastic coated wire hangers may be used and are useful for pinning pants to but please don't use the older style dark wire hangers (like you get at the cleaners)....
Place them in a ziploc bag and then seal the ziploc with clear packing tape. This is important!
First, be sure to stick the bar code label to the correct size string tag. Do not stick it directly onto the bag. Then attach the string tag securely to the bag with a safety pin or packing tape. The exception is shoes, where we ask that you attach the string tag to the shoes in the ziploc bag.
We suggest you bring a laundry basket with your name on it. 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.
Wrinkled clothes do not sell! Please do what is necessary to make your clothes look clean and nice. Remember, the better they look, the better they sell!
Yes, you may enter additional batches. Just click on "new batch"on the enter items page.
