CONSIGNORS

Do you need to de-clutter your closet? Are there items in your closet with price tags still attached?   Have you stood in front of your closet and thought, "I love this piece, but..."?  Do you have fabulous clothes items that just don't fit the way they used to?  We all have impulse buys in our closet, don't we?  Well, if you've been looking for a way and reason to de-clutter, here it is:

TRENDY CLOSET CONSIGNMENT

We can help you resolve all these dilemmas by consigning your clothes, shoes and accessories to earn extra cash in your wallet and make some needed space in your closet.  In turn, you just might walk out with some amazing deals to help replenish those empty spots in your closet.

As a consignor, you get the benefits of:

* Website for reference and online processing

* A computerized system accessible 24/7

* Receive 65% of the total amount that you sale; 70% if you Volunteer for a 4 hour shift

* You set the price

* Internet availability for status of your sold and unsold items and amount earned

* Email communication for questions or concerns

* We do all the advertising

* We earn you more money than a garage sale or selling on-line

* Option of donating to charities and receive a tax deductible receipt

4. Log into your account and start entering your items and creating tags. Your tags must identify the size, category, description and price. The description is required if your item's tag becomes separated from the item. You will also have the option to discount each item for half the price (50%) on the last day and also an option for TCC to donate any of your unsold items to a pre-determined charity on your behalf.

TCC uses MySaleManager to improve our data entry, accounting, and check-out system. You can easily enter your tag information from home on your computer. No software is required other than internet access. Just visit the Consignor Account Homepage.  Log in, select Work with Consigned Inventory, and start entering your items.  The system will automatically create an inventory sheet for all of your items. Your tags will be created from the information you enter.

In addition, your consignor account will automatically be updated each evening during the sale.  This process will allow you to track your sales.

Price items in 50 cent increments starting with $2.00.

Please choose items, or group items together, so they equal a value of at least $2.00. If you want your items to go 1/2 price (50%) on Sunday, click the DISCOUNT square when entering the item(s) into your inventory.


DONATIONS - To donate all or some of unsold items, please designate each item to be donated by clicking the DONATE square when entering the item(s) into your inventory.

5. Print out your tags. Your tags will print out the information you entered as well as a barcode that contains your consignor number, item and price. Tags print 6 per page. This tag will be quickly scanned at checkout during the sale and the data will be automatically entered into the software program and tallied to your account. TAGS NEED TO BE PRINTED ON WHITE OR OFF-WHITE 60-67# WEIGHT CARDSTOCK PAPER (available at Target, Staples, Office Max, etc.) No plain white copy paper will be accepted as regular paper tears easily and we would end up with a lot of items with missing tags. Tags cannot be duplicated on a copy machine as the bar code will not scan and the item will not register to your account and you will not get credit for the sale.

ALL ITEMS for the TCC sale events must have tags created through our website in order to be accepted into our sale. We will not accept items that have been tagged for other consignment sales. You must register and create tags through our website.

6. Hang your clothes on wire hangers and prepare all other items according to the Preparation Guidelines .  Attach tags with a tagging gun. (Refer to our Mini Mall for information on purchasing a tagging gun.)  All clothing items must be on wire hangers.


*** PLEASE NOTE: If purchasing a Tagging Gun from the Vendor in our MINI MALL, allow 2-3 weeks for delivery, since it's shipping from over-seas.

7. You must log-in to your consignor account to schedule your drop-off time. During your designated drop-off time, you will bring your items to be checked-in and complete your consignor paperwork. Items will be reviewed to ensure they are in compliance with our guidelines. We pre-sort items at check in. We want to ensure that items for sale are of top quality. PLEASE do not be offended if we decline any of your items at check-in.  We strive to provide you and all our clients with the most desirable and gently-used to new items.  Something that you, yourself would love to buy. Please understand that in order to accept an item for our sale, we must be confident that we can sell it.  It is our goal and job to make you money.

8. Unsold items will be separated by consignor number and placed into piles at the end of the sale. You will need to bring a container with you when picking up your unsold items.  Consignors must retrieve their items on Monday at the pre-designated time and then go to the check-out table to sign their "pick up" sheet. 

9. After the sale is over, check your on-line inventory list to see what you sold and then wait for your check! Checks for the proceeds of your sold items will be mailed within 2 weeks of the sale.

 

NOTE: If your items were not sold at the event and you have chosen not to donate them, they do not need to be re-tagged to be sold at TCC future events. Our online inventory system will allow you to move all unsold items to the future sales when registration for that sale is open. This is a wonderful feature since it saves you the trouble of re-tagging and re-entering your item information.

Items that were not sold or donated must be picked up by the consignor by 6pm on Tuesday. Any items not retrieved by 6pm will be donated. No exceptions.

Additional information on organizing and tagging your items:
 
Jewelry- Attach your price tag with a curling ribbon for rings, bracelets and necklaces. For earrings make 2 small holes on the price tag itself without cutting any part of the barcode and insert the earrings. Do not place jewelry in Ziploc bags because they will sell much better if they are fully visible.
 
Shoes- Attach your price tag to the pair of shoes with curling ribbon leaving at least 5” drag so they can be tried on. If you do not have anything to run the ribbon through tape the tag to the bottom of one shoe but do not cover the barcode with tape.
 
Clothes- If you have a dress or top that has thin straps, wrap a rubber band on the ends of the each side of the hanger to keep the strap from slipping off. Or you can attach masking tape to the hanger and attach a safety pin to hold the strap in place (see picture sample below). Any 2 piece suits should be entered as such, example “Ann Taylor black work suit 2pcs” and the tag should be placed on the jackets' original label. Use pant hangers for all pants, 2 piece suits, skirts and shorts (do not use safety pins). We can provide pant hangers at drop off and jeans will be placed on hooks also provided at drop off.
