Be picky about what items you bring; our customers will be!

Presentation of your item plays a huge part in it selling! Please neatly hang your clothing as this will greatly increase the item’s chance to sell. Spending a little extra time getting your items looking great can result in cash for you!

Tips for first time consignors with baby items...

If you are a first time consignor, we have some helpful tips in helping you with your baby items. Click here for more information.

Here are a couple of quick tips for helping you price and package shoes.

Quick Tip 1

• Place shoes in a zip lock bag.
• Tape your pricing tag to the inside of the bag, but try to avoid covering the shoes as much as possible.
• Place a piece of masking tape on the bottom of each shoe with the ITEM ID. The item ID is the number below the barcode on the tag. This is very important.
• Place a black dot on the masking tape if you do NOT wish them to go on 1/2 price during the Saturday Half-Price sale.

Quick Tip 2

• Punch a hole in the pricing card for your shoes.
• Thread the shoe string of one of the shoes through your pricing tag.
• Connect the two shoes together by tying the shoe strings, using ribbon, cable ties, or twist ties.
• Place a piece of masking tape on the bottom of each shoe with the ITEM ID. The item ID is the number below the barcode on the tag. This is very important.
• Place a black dot on the masking tape if you do NOT wish them to go on 1/2 price during the Saturday Half-Price sale.

By following these simple steps, we will be able to help you sell your item even if the pricing tag becomes lost or separated from the shoes.

You can also call toll free call the toll-free D.O.T. Auto Safety Hotline in Washington, D.C., 1-888-DASH-2-DOT. Or check recall information at the Dept. of Transportation at 1-800-424-9393

Anything that can go on a hanger will sell best this way. Use only one hanger for two piece outfits. Hang the shirt first, then turn the hanger over and pin the waist of the pants to the back of the shirt at the shoulder seams. Do not pin second pieces (pants or skirts) under a jacket or shirt where they cannot be seen. Pin pants with two safety pins at the waist. One pin will go on each side of the hanger's hook. The pants can be seen fully, front and back by simply flipping the hanger over and will not constantly fall on the floor. Here is an example of the proper way to tag pants!

Best guideline: Think about what you would be willing to pay for the item if you were in the buyers shoes and the one considering purchasing it. If you would pay a particular price, someone else probably would, too! Ask yourself: "What would I pay for this?"

Also, look at the original retail price and take 75 % off. For example, if an item’s originally cost was $20, take 75% off and price the item in the range of $4.50 to $5.00.

If it is an item that is highly desirable like Abercrombie, Polo, Gymboree, Limited Too, etc., you can go up from the 75% off. If it is an item that is still in good shape, but from Target, Walmart, etc. you might need to stay around the lower price. Keep in mind you are competing with many items of similar quality, and the best price will sell first.

After determining what you think is a fair price, ask yourself, "Would I pay $?? for this item?" or "Would I pay more than this?" If you would pay more, add a dollar or maybe two to the price. The people who make the most money have higher quality items priced in the ranges of $5.00 - $15.00. A few high quality items will really add up quickly! Keep in mind that your goal is to sell your items, otherwise, you will be taking it home with you at the end of this sale, so be careful to not over price.

It is against the law to resell products that are on the Consumer Product Safety Commission website as having been deemed unsafe for children. To see if your product has been recalled, go to: www.cpsc.gov. If you have a product that has ever been recalled, it will not be accepted in any Duck Duck Goose Sale.

Also, items that have high contents of lead, such as children’s jewelry, will not be accepted for consignment.  If you have an item that is on the recall list for high lead content, a manufacturing defect or safety defect, you cannot bring it or resell it. Mom to Mom…. If you as a Duck Duck Goose shopper see an item that should not be on the sales floor, please alert us to pull it as we work together to keep our children as safe as possible.
