Consignor Questions
How much do consignors earn?
Consignors receive 70% (or more!) of their sales less a $10 NON-REFUNDABLE consignor fee. As a consignor, you will also receive two passes to attend the Consignor Pre-Sale, enabling you and one guest to shop the sale prior to the general public as well as ONE pass to the 1/2 price pre-sale for consignors. Consigning with Wee-Cycle is much easier than a garage sale and much more profitable than a consignment store! If you want to earn a higher commission check out our Volunteer page.
Who does the pricing?
You set your own price and you get to decide if your item is discounted on half-price day. Keep in mind that you want to price things to sell, but you can also expect to price them higher than you would at a yard sale. If you need help with pricing, visit our SELL page for more information.
How do I sign up to consign?
Go to our Register Page. You will receive an email confirmation with your consignor number. Be sure to check out our Tagging instructions and pricing guidelines to help you get started.
How long should I give myself to drop off my items?
It typically takes about 45 minutes to drop off your items (Depending upon the amount of items you bring). After you have checked in and signed your Consignment Contract, your clothing items will be inspected and ready for you to place in the designated areas around the sales floor. It is helpful to have your clothing sorted by size and gender to speed up the amount of time it takes to place items on the correct racks.
When do I pick up my unsold items?
Your unsold items will be sorted and ready for you to pick up after the sale. You can also choose to have your unsold items donated to charity. All items not picked up by the deadline will automatically be donated to our charity! For more information on the charitable organizations we will be donating to, please visit our PARTNERS page.
Will I know what items have sold?
With our Point of Sales and on-line tagging system we will be able to post sales at the end of each sale day. You will be able to log on and check what items have sold as soon as we are able to upload the information each evening.
What items will you accept at your sale?
We accept all items for Infants through teens, new and gently used, which are in good, clean condition. This includes seasonal clothes including maternity, toys, books, games, furniture, highchairs, strollers, etc. We also accept Scrapbook and Card-Making supplies! All items will be checked for stains, tears, missing parts, working batteries, etc. Please only bring your best as worn/damaged items will not be accepted and old outdated items just do not sell.
What about shoes?
We do accept shoes, but they must be in REALLY good condition. Worn out shoes just do not sell so please bring only your best! Robeeze, Stride Rite, See Kai Run and other high-end shoes do sell quite well.
What about stuffed animals?
We will NOT be accepting stuffed animals at our sale. Any stuffed toy that lights up, makes sounds or is otherwise interactive is considered a toy and CAN be sold at the sale. (Dolls with clothes you can change, Build-A-Bear animals WITH outfits, light up or talking Elmos, etc. are all acceptible.)You can donate your like-new stuffed animals to The Dougy Center. Just bring them with you to drop-off or any time during the Sale.
At the end of the sale, do I have to sort through the racks to find my unsold items?
No, when you pick up your unsold items, your hanging garments will already be sorted by Consignor # for easy pickup. If time allows, we hope to have all of your other items sorted, too.
When will I receive my check?
We plan to have checks mailed out within 3-4 days of the end of the sale (if not sooner), but we do reserve the right to take up to 30 days to finalize all payments. (This has never been the case, but we need to make sure everything is cleared (CREDIT CARDS, etc.) before we send out checks.
