Here's how it works - 1st time suppliers must have an appointment.  Review our  preparation guidelines, round up your items and give us a call to set your appointment.  If you're not sure what to bring give us a call and we can let you know what we're accepting at that time. Our busiest consigning months are Feb/March & Sept/October so call early for an appt during those months. 

Bringing Items in -
When selecting merchandise, our customers' preferences, past sales and current stock must be our guidelines.  We select only the best.  Sometimes there will be items that we cannot accept.  Please do not be offended! When we set high standards - everyone benefits!

We no longer limit the amount you can bring in per appointment as long as it is presorted and meets our criteria below. Remember, we're not looking for garage sale merchandise - bring only your best. 

Pre-Approved Consignors  a  "Drop & Run".   We do ask that if you are doing a "Drop & Run" that you limit it to 1 laundry basket or so, as we have many appointments to accommodate.   Remember - you must presort to our criteria and come back for your "No Thank You's" within a few days or they will be donated as we have very little storage space.  We can call you back with a cash/Store Credit price once we sort through it - or you may consign current season items.

Get Paid in Cash or Store Credit -  We now have 3 ways to get paid!  Cash,
20% more for store credit
or Consignment. 

Cash is a great quick way to get those unwanted things out of your home and put cash in your pocket!  Store Credit will stretch your shopping dollar even further as we add 20% on top of your cash price.  Store Credit can be used that day or whenever - it never expires. 

We will look at any season most anytime, but you can only consign current season items.  Off-season items will only receive a cash or store credit offer.

Consignment terms - We will display your items for 75 days unless they are dropped off near our seasonal clearance months. of Jan for winter and July for summer.   A .15 cent tagging fee is withdrawn only if the item sells. You'll receive 45% of the final selling price and 50% for "NEW WITH TAG" clothing items selling for more than $19.95 - as long as your clothing comes in as stated above ready for the sales floor.  Items needing attention will receive a lower % of final selling price so it pays to do your part.   Discount brands (Walmart/KMart) only receive 25%.

*Final price excludes a store fee paid by the purchaser that is added to each item before it goes to the sales floor. This fee helps support our local schools! When we ring up the sale we ask the purchaser which school they would like to support and donate a potion of the sale  to that school in the form of As Good As New! Gift Cards.    Check out the schools we currently support.

After 75 days unsold items expire  (See "Unsold Items" below)  and  become store property for the final clearance rack, donation or bag sale with proceeds to charity.

Clothing Preparation  - Items should be ready to place on the sales floor. Winkles do not sell!!!! The more time you spend on details, the faster it will sell, which means the more money it will bring!     Tennis shoes need to be run through the washer and the rest need to be polished.  If clothing has been crated or in your closet for a while, it's best to freshen them up in the dryer with a fabric softener sheet for a bit, then hang on hangers (You'll get them back) or lay clothing flat or folded once over for minimal wrinkles in a laundry basket or tote. 

Acceptable Clothing Items - Family namebrand clothing from Infant on up to Woman's XXL.   When selecting items ask yourself "Is this something I would buy for my family?"  We are not looking for garage sale merchandise.  Items that are torn, missing buttons, stained, faded, piled or smells of smoke or other odors, will not be accepted.  Clothes need to be in style and therefore should have been purchased in the last few seasons. So, if it's been in your closet for many years it's safe to say it's probably not what we're looking for! Clothing should be in-season, gently worn, freshly laundered, and on hangers or neatly folded in a box or laundry basket.   
No grocery or trash bags!   We are looking for department store, name brand family clothing for kids, and Mom's and Dad's too.  Items like Gap, Baby Gap, Gymboree, Little Me, Old Navy, Nike, Reebok, Tommy and such (Minimal Wal-Mart or KMart accepted with a 25% payout)

Items we don't have much luck with...

In addition to clothing, accessories & shoes ... we're also looking for CURRENT Maternity wear, cribs, rockers, dressers, sporting goods, books, tapes, CD's, electronic games, toys, software, outdoor play equipment and more, all in excellent-nearly new condition.  Check out what we're looking for and what sells best.

Due to liability reasons, we are no longer taking used carseats.

ALL STROLLERS, HIGH CHAIRS and large outdoor equip need to be CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN!  We suggest taking them to the car wash.  Items are subject to a cleaning fee if needed.

Pricing - We base prices on supply and demand and will work hard to get the best possible prices for you.  However, we do reserve the right to take markdowns and run sales.  Generally we price items 1/4 to 1/2 of it's original retail price with markdowns every 20 days  If you have a special item that you'd like a firm price on, please let us know and we'll see if we can accept it.  Original price documentation (Printed receipt, catalog page) is helpful.

Unsold Items - We work very hard to display and sell your items but after a reasonable amount of time of being discounted down, it's time to let them go!  All unsold expired items become store property to final 99 cent clearance, donate or hold for our Bag Sale.  Each year we clearance out with a bag or rack sale with proceeds going to our local charities or the local veterinarians! We will, however, make exceptions if the item is very expensive or new.  Let us know if you have such an item and we will return it to you.

If you still would rather your unsolds NOT go to Charity - we can tag your account as "Return"   .  You will be given a date that you must call by to check on your account.  If there are unsold items on your  account we will pull them for you and have them ready for pickup. (24 hours notice needed)  Items will be held for only 7 days. Unclaimed items will be donated as we have very limited storage. 

Payment - Stop in for money owed you at anytime - we can normally pay on the spot!  If for some reason we've had lots of payouts that day, we'll write you a check that you can cash at the local Lyndon State Bank immediately.  We can also mail checks with a minimum $25 balance by request.

Loss -We are careful and trustworthy, and encourage our customers to be also, but cannot be held liable for fire, theft or damage to merchandise.  Check with your agent to see if your Homeowners Policy will cover your items.

That's about it!   We look forward to a long, happy, profitable partnership!
