How to prep your items
for in-person sales!
☀️ QUALITY IS EVERYTHING! Choose items without stains, odors, excessive wear or broken/missing parts. Items will be inspected to be sure they meet our shoppers' standards. See our long list of accepted items.
☀️ GREAT PRICING PAYS!
Price GUC & EUC ITEMS ➡ 75% OFF RETAIL
Price NWT ITEMS ➡ 50% OFF RETAIL
☀️ MARK DISCOUNT TO SELL THE MOST! Items marked Discount go 50% OFF on Sunday 2–6PM. All items not picked up Monday during designated pickup hours will go 75% OFF Monday 6:30–8:30PM.
☀️ BRING YOUR TAGGED ITEMS to Drop Off day! You'll stock your items in the appropriate areas. It's quick and easy! See your Seller Guide for date and time.
☀️ ITEM TRANSFERS: Due to such high inventory counts, transferring unsold items from sale to sale will not be permitted for in-person events after the Fall 2023 season. As of Spring 2024 any unsold item will need to be reentered and retagged. In this case, we strongly recommend evaluating item quality, pricing and season relevance, before reentering for a future sale.

🏚 LARGE ITEMS 🛝
For items larger than a shopping tote bring tags unattached to Drop Off. You will be given a claim tag to attach these.
Always include working batteries or necessary power cord. Otherwise shoppers won't know your item works properly, and it will be unsellable.
🚘 CAR SEATS 🚘
If selling a car seat, complete this quick form before drop off.
👚 CLOTHING 👖
Place on hangers with the hook opening facing left like a question mark(?). Fasten tags with a safety pin or tagging gun on the upper-right-hand side when looking at the item. Place small multi-piece sets (socks, bows, etc) in ziplock with tag taped to outside, not floating inside.
👟 SHOES 🩰
Fasten pairs together with zip ties. Hole punch tag and feed zip tie through before fastening. As of spring 2023 shoes in ziplocks will no longer be accepted. For flats or boots with no place for zip tie, use a rubber band to secure together.
🚂 TOYS, PUZZLES & GAMES 🧩
Place small parts in ziplock and secure outside or inside. This allows shoppers to see that all parts are accounted for without risk of losing pieces. Always include working batteries or necessary power cord, otherwise shoppers won't know your item works properly, and it will be unsellable.
📚 BOOKS 📚
Use painter's tape for tagging to avoid damaging the cover, or place in ziplocks with tag taped to outside, not floating inside.
