Frequently Asked Questions:

  • Do I have to work at the sale? No, you do not have to work at the sale. The benefit of consigning at our sale is that drop of your items on Thursday, pick-up any unsold items at the end of the day on Saturday and we will mail you a check for 65% of your sales within 15 days! If you choose to volunteer for 3 hours, you will receive 70% of your sales.

  • Is there a limit on toys or furniture? No, bring it all. Just remember clean, good working condition.

  • How do I price items? As a general rule you will want to price items at about 1/4 to 1/3 of their original retail price.  (unless you really want it gone, then .50 or $1.00) If your item is a name-brand or boutique-brand such as Oshkosh, Gymboree, The Children's Place or other higher end, you can price closer to 1/3 original retail.  Clothing from Target or Wal-Mart should be priced on the lower end.  For example, if a GAP t-shirt can be purchased on sale for 11.99, you can reasonably price it around $4.00 for good condition, $5.00 for excellent condition, more if the tags are still on.

    The one exception to the 1/4-1/3 rule will be indoor/outdoor toys like kitchens and playhouses (Little Tykes type items).  These types of toys are in higher demand and you can expect to get as much as 1/3-1/2 of original retail price, especially if they have only been used indoors and are in great condition.  A great question to ask yourself is "what would I pay for this?"  However, try not to price with your emotions.  Because of treasured memories that you have attached to an item, you will always believe your items are "worth" more than someone else purchasing them.  Just remember - no one can buy your memories...  you will have those forever.

  • Are clothes limited to season? Yes, this sale is for Fall/Winter clothes. The spring sale will be for Spring/Summer clothes.

  • Do clothes have to be on hangers? Yes, remember if customers can’t see the clothes easily they will just move along. Most people have more hangers than they know what to do with. However, if you need to buy them the dollar stores sells them inexpensively.
