Optional-
You may now use a tagging gun to secure your index card to your clothing
item. If a tagging gun is used, you must secure the tag under the
left
arm seam or left waistband of the garment. **If you are
facing the garment it will be on your right side -see picture below.
(Please use the short 1 inch barbs for the tagging gun as the long barbs
tend to tangle and the tag gets ripped off.)
If your item has more than one part, please
list the # of pieces on the "description" portion of the tag. DO NOT USE MORE THAN
1 CARD for items with multiple pieces.
To make sure you
get paid for each sold item only write on 1 side of the card. (Please
do not use the back side of a card from another sale.)
*Sort - You
must have your clothes grouped by size and gender before drop off.
Hanging-
Hang clothing on wire or heavy duty plastic hangers. We
recommend wire hangers as plastic ones break and items end up on the
floor. The hanger hook should face the left (like a question mark)
with the tag pinned to right side of garment as you face it. See
illustration below:
Cards - Only 3 x 5 index cards VERTICALLY (whole
card, not cut).
Leave at least 1 1/2 inches between the safety pin and where the
writing begins.
USE ONLY 1 TAG PER ITEM
If item has multiple parts,
list all pieces under "description".
* *PIN the Tag with 1 inch or larger safety pin. Safety Pin must be
pinned horizontally across tag. (No straight
pins allowed). THIS IS
VERY IMPORTANT TO KEEP TAGS FROM BECOMING SEPARATED FROM CLOTHING.
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
NEW! Price all items at a MINIMUM
of $3.00. (Exception:$1 minimum price will be allowed
on Books, Videos, CDs and DVDs.)
You can combine items to sell as one unit.
Examples: If a clothing item will not sell for $3.00, then
combine single pieces to make a set, group like toys together to sell as one unit, etc... With the large number of
consignors and the amount of items we receive each sale, this will
help us maximize our space.
Any unsold item you wish to pick upMUST
have a Red
R
(for return) in the top left corner of the index card. Any unsold item without a
Red Rwill be
donated immediately following the half price sale.
Fill out the card

Loose Articles
-
Place small loose pieces in a Ziploc baggie, secure and seal the
top of the bag with extra strong packing tape so that children can not open and
remove pieces!
Hard to Tag Items
- Please use packing
tape because scotch tape will not hold and your cards may become lost if not
securely attached.
Optional: An extra
security measure to keep tag attached to garment is to place a small piece of
scotch tape over the safety pin where the pin is attached to the index card.
Due to the many items being sold we recommend that you price competitively. We
suggest
about
1/3 of the original price, depending on the name
brand and condition of item.
Spending a little "extra" time getting your items ready will mean
more Money for you. Items that are Clean, Ironed, and Starched sell much
better! Present them at their best for the most $$$ for you!
To maintain the high standards we have set and quality of items available for
purchase, we will be inspecting each item on drop off. We ask that you only
bring items of the quality and condition that you would be willing to purchase
yourself. Items that are torn, soiled, outdated or have missing parts will
not be accepted.
Due to the high demand for consignor numbers,
you must reserve your consignor
number to assure your continued use of a number used in a previous sale.
Consignor Registration will be open thru Thursday, February 2nd.
