What
Should I Do If I Want To Consign?
**Note - There Is No Limit To The Number Of Items You
Can Consign!!**
1) Obtain A Consignor Number
• Contact Us At 203-206-3141 and you will be assigned
a consignor number.
2) Identify What To Sell
CHILDREN’S CLOTHING: Fall and Winter Items
ONLY:
items in excellent condition including shirts, blouses,
jeans, pants, dresses, sweaters, sweatshirts, outerwear,
pajamas, costumes, etc…
• SHOES: new or like new condition
• COATS AND JACKETS
• ACCESSORIES: bags, hats, gloves, belts, etc..
• KIDS DÉCOR: decorative pillows, throws
or bedding, lighting (only if working), etc..
• SMALL FURNITURE ITEMS
• TOYS, GAMES AND BOOKS: all items must be in
working order and complete with new batteries
•
Items Not Accepted
• Out of date items.
• Used underwear and socks.
• Items stained, torn, faded, pilled, or extremely
worn.
• Items that are broken or missing pieces.
•
Special Notes
• Clothing must be clean, smell fresh, and look
good. The better items look the faster they sell.
• Any items requiring batteries must have them
to ensure items are in working order.
• All items must be clean, have all parts, and
have small pieces in a zip lock bag attached to the
main item (packing tape works great). Please do not
use masking or scotch tape as it will not hold.
• Large items must be fully assembled at drop
off.
• Please try to follow these guidelines to maintain
the quality of the sale. All items will be checked at
drop off and any item deemed unacceptable will be returned
to the consignor or donated as appropriate. Savvy Ladies
Boutique reserves the right to refuse ANY item.
Pricing
• Items should be priced in $1.00 increments –
no cents.
• Minimum price is $2.00.
• Ask yourself “How much would I be willing
to pay?” A good guide is 1/10th to 1/3 of the
retail price.
• Name brands and hard to find items sell for
higher dollars.
• Feel free to call or email us with any questions.
Tagging
• Clothing should be hung with the item facing
forward, the hanger hook to the left (like a question
mark ?) and an index card on the right as below.
• All items need to be buttoned, zipped, snapped,
and tied so they look their best.
• ALL ITEMS MUST BE TAGGED WITH A 3 x 5 INDEX
CARD (or piece of paper)pinned/taped vertically. Cards
should appear as below
• If you do not want an item to be sold for half
price at the half price sale, mark in the bottom right
corner “ND” in red and circle the price
(as in example above).
• Describe the items so if the tag gets separated
from the item we may match it. Include name brand or
NEW in description to help validate pricing.
• Sizes should be labeled numerically (2, 4, 6,
or s, m, l, xl)
• Tags should be placed on the RIGHT shoulder
as you look at it. Writing should be on the lower 2/3
of the card (we will cut the tags off at check out).
No writing on the top 1/3 of card.
• Safety pins or tape can be used to attach items
to clothes – NO straight pins. Packing tape works
well for other items.
• Group small items in zip lock bags and pin/tape
card to the outside of all bags.
Drop Off
• Item drop off is Friday October 23rd, from 9am
– 12pm or Thursday, October 22nd from 5-7pm (very
limited)
• Appointment times make drop off flow more smoothly.
We will contact you to set a time.
• Everything must be tagged at drop-off. NO TAG
= NO SALE.
• On arrival, check in – sign or bring consignor’s
agreement waiver, initial sign-in sheet to insure mailing
address is correct, and pick up presale tickets (one
for you and one for a guest).
• Items are then checked by SMB for tagging and
quality.
• Please allow adequate time to drop off your
items, as you will need to place them in the appropriate
area.
