Consign
We are a Women & Children's Consignment Boutique
We accept women and children’s clothing, accessories, maternity, children’s toys and small houseware items.
Consignment Process
- WE ARE NOT ACCEPTING NEW CONSIGNORS AT THIS TIME.
- Our consignment fee is 50% of the selling price. A nominal item fee is added to the price of each item (retained by HMU) and will not be reflected on your inventory list.
- For current consignors, a maximum of 10 clothing items may be dropped off each week and will be processed in the order received.
- All merchandise on consignment is kept for a total of 8 weeks. If you wish to retrieve your unsold items, please come in before the 8 weeks are up. You will be given an inventory sheet and you will be required to locate your items. (Allow plenty of time to look through racks.) Please be aware: Hand Me Up’s is not responsible for lost or stolen items. Clothing not picked up after 8 weeks is the property of the store and may be donated to non-profits or charities.
- Holiday items will be marked down immediately after the holiday no matter when the items were dropped off. Other items might be marked down without notice and/or may be a part of a sale promotion.
- Accounts with more than $50 balance at the end of the month will be mailed a check.
Consignment Guidelines
- We know that your items are valuable to you, however we rely on experience and current selling trends to determine what will be accepted in our store. We look for current styles and clothing that have the best chance of selling and that customers will want to buy.
- Hand Me Up’s will not accept the following brands: Faded Glory, No Boundaries, Garanimals, Wonder KidS, George, Circo, Mossimo, Cherokee, and Rue 21.
- All clothing must be freshly laundered, folded, and pressed or dry-cleaned. The more time you take in preparing your things for consignment, the more successful Hand-Me-Up’s will be selling your items. No plastic garbage or grocery bags please.
- No stained or damaged clothing will be accepted! Items with pet hair, smoky or mothball odors will not be accepted. Please check all items closely before you bring them in.
