| Why Should I Consign or Buy |
- Because your children have outgrown last years clothes
- Your children want new clothes that fit and look great
- You are tired of looking at those games, toys, books that no one has touched all year
- You want money and space
- consignors receive 60% of selling price
- There is no one to give this stuff to, and it's too good to go to Goodwill
- You don't want to pay $14-$38 for a piece of clothing for your child
You can get their entire wardrobe at one place, one time. This cuts down on the screaming, arguing, and whining (and I'm not talking just about the kids)
- It is fun getting the bargains...husbands do not understand

Cute, brand name, style, and condition sell. I am offering suggestions or ranges for items. Top name brands sell better and condition is a large consideration.
INFANT CLOTHING: sells the least because everyone gets so many outfits from baby showers. New moms want new items for their new baby. I only allow a total of 25 items per consignor in the sizes range of NB-12M. Only bring in high-end or new. No individual tops or bottoms, please put together/create sets. |
