SALE FAQ
Consignors keep 70% of the sales. This and other information can be found on the seller agreement you sign when you sign up. You can read it ahead of time in our downloadable manual.
No. At this time, you must have tags entered into My Sale Manager for the NFUMC Preschool specific sale only. Please make sure any tagged items you bring will scan as part of our sale or they will not be sold from the register.
No. Your consignor fee covers the mailing of your check to the address we have on file for you within My Sale Manager.
We accept dance wear and athletic wear all year long. We accept costumes in the fall only. Please choose the appropriate category when entering.
No. All inventory must be present and in the building by the close of check-in on Wednesday.
All your items should arrive at drop-off already on hangers and tagged according to our guidelines. The hangers go with the clothes, and we do not remove them during checkout. Walmart, Dollar Tree, and Target all sell inexpensive plastic hangers. You can also use wire hangers from the dry cleaners. Please just understand that this is part of your responsibility to gather for hanging your clothes and they will not be coming back to you.
A good rule of thumb is to price any item in GOOD or EXCELLENT condition at 30% - 35% of what you paid for it originally. We would not recommend pricing it based on eBay selling prices since eBay is a competitive bidding environment and prices are often inflated due to broader demand. You can google websites that have excellent recommendations for pricing by clothing designer.
We ask that you use your best judgment and ask some other mom's if you are in doubt. Of course, children are still wearing some short-sleeve shirts in the fall and a lot of our Easter outfits in the Spring will include a long-sleeve button up shirt. We would ask that you consider if the colors are appropriate to the season and how much wear a child would get out of the clothing. This rule-of-thumb also applies to jeans or long pants vs shorts.
We accept children's sizes up to 14-16. For girls, this can mean that you have a size 0 or 2 in your closet. We will accept that and add it to the area where we place the size 16.
Yes, but you must make sure that the pants are VERY secure and will not pull off. They must also be hung from the waist and NOT folded in half.
All clothing must be hung. There are exceptions for small items like hats, socks, mittens, soft shoes, etc. These can be placed in Ziplock bags with a tag placed (NOT TAPED) inside. We also ask that you hang all bags (purses, diaper bags, baby carriers, etc.).
All our shifts are assigned to our preschool moms and dads. We do not allow non-preschool families to volunteer during the sale for the safety of our preschool and church children.
