Before Bringing in Your Items
Inspect: Carefully inspect items for stains, holes, fading or damage. Pay close attention to collars, armpits, and seams, missing buttons and broken zippers.
Wash: Be sure clothing is clean and freshly laundered. No one wants to buy dirty clothes.

CONSIGNOR ID NUMBER
If it’s your first time consigning with us, you will sign up for a new consignor account using our computer system. Your new consignor ID number will be written on a card and placed inside your bin on the pick-up shelf.
Keep an eye out for an email from ConsignorAccess, this will contain your consignor ID number, a temporary password, and instructions on setting up your online account so that you can view and track your sales. Important! If you do not see an email, be sure to check your spam or junk folder.
INSPECTION PROCESS
The associate will sort through and inspect your items as you shop in our store. The time it takes to sort through your items will vary depending on many factors, including the number of items brought in and the number of customers consigning that day.
Any items that were not accepted will be waiting for you to pick up in the consignment center.
IMPORTANT! You must pick up your bins and unaccepted items the same day you consign before closing. If you do not return to pick up your belongings your account will be charged a $5 fee.
For safety reasons, we can not accept any items brought in trash bags.
Please bring items and clothing folded inside a storage container, tote, bin, box, or laundry basket.

Example Pricing and Payout Structure
| Days on Sales Floor | Price Starts at $29.99 or over | You Receive 50% |
| Day 1 - Day 20 (Starting Price) | $30.00 | $15.00 |
| Day 21 - Day 40 (Price Reduced by 20%) | $24.00 | $12.00 |
| Day 41 - Day 60 (Price is 50% of Starting Price) | $15.00 | $7.50 |
The consignment period lasts 60 days and begins when your items are priced and put on the sales floor. Every 20 days the selling price drops as shown on our tags.
You will receive 40% of the sale for items priced under $29.99 and 50% for items priced $29.99 and over.
Please be aware that your items are subject to our frequent sales and promotions.
At the end of the 60-days, any unsold items will become store-owned unless you retrieve them from the sales floor before the ‘expire date’. This date can be found in your online account.
The Consignment Period
As your items sell in our store your portion of the sale will accumulate into your account.
You may use your balance as store credit at any time or we will cut you a check upon request.
Checks written in-store must be $10 or more.
If you wish to have your check mailed, your balance must be $30 or more. There is a $1 fee for all in-store written checks and a $3 fee for mailed checks. There is no fee to use your balance as store credit.
Please use our contact form to request a check by mail, be sure to include your consignor ID and address OR stop in any time to pick up a check in-store with a valid state-issued ID.

REQUESTING TO SET THE STARTING PRICE
If you have higher-value items you may request to set the starting price by filling out a Minimum Starting Price Agreement Form.
Download and print the form at home or fill it out when you come in to consign.
You will need to fill out a separate slip for each item you would like to set the starting price for.
EXAMPLE
HOW IT WORKS: Say you want to consign a black Michael Kors purse, but only if we set the starting price at $50. Keep in mind, that you will receive 50% of the sale (since priced $29.99+) if sold during the first 20 days.
This number represents the starting price only and not the final payout. It will drop by 20% if unsold at the first 20-day mark and 50% at the 40-day mark.
