Consignment FAQ's

How does consignment work?

CONSIGNMENT IS WHEN YOU ENTER A BUSINESS AGREEMENT AND PARTNERSHIP WITH A STORE THAT AGREES TO ATTEMPT TO SELL YOUR ITEMS FOR YOU. IN OUR CASE, WE LEASE SPACE TO YOU FOR 60 DAYS, 6 MONTHS OR THE DURATION OF THE CURRENT SEASON.

YOUR FEE FOR LEASING OUR SPACE IS THE COMMISSION WE TAKE FROM YOU IF YOUR ITEMS SELL. THIS IS WHY WE ARE VERY STRICT ABOUT ADHERING TO OUR CONSIGNMENT GUIDELINES.

WE DO NOT WANT TO TAKE ITEMS IF WE DO NOT BELIEVE OUR CUSTOMERS WILL BUY THEM. TIME IS VALUABLE FOR EVERYONE AND WE DO NOT WANT TO WASTE ANYONES.

When do you accept consignments?

Consignments are BY APPOINTMENT ONLY Tuesday through Friday 11am to 5:30pm.

SUMMER: WE ARE FULL FOR SUMMER CONSIGNMENTS

FALL: August 15th through October 15th for

WINTER: November 15th through January 15th
