New, like new, and gently used clothing in sizes preemie to girls 16 and boys 20. Girls junior sizes up to size 15 also accepted. Our March and April sales are for spring/summer clothing so no winter coats, snowsuits, snow boots, winter hats and gloves, or winter clothing. Our August/November sales are for fall/winter clothing, so no bathing suits, sandals, flip flops, shorts, etc. Sporting uniforms, and dance clothes will be accepted at all sales. We will have a special place for unisex clothes newborn-12 months.
Clothing limits:
You may bring a total of 100 hanging items of children’s clothing. You should hang everything including pajamas. Your items will sell better on hangers where they can be seen. Included in this 100 hanger limit is a limit of 25 pieces of clothing size newborn through 12 months.
Bagged Clothing:
You may bag onesies and infant sleepers (up to 12 months) if you’ve reached your hanging limits. We do not make basket space for other types of clothing in bags other than onesies and sleepers size NB-12 months. Just bring your best pieces. Undergarments of all sizes can be bagged (socks, undershirts, tights, etc.).
Quality:
Please, if it’s too worn to hand down to your best friend for her kids, it’s too worn for our sale. This is very important!! DO NOT BRING STAINED CLOTHES TO THE SALE, THEY WILL BE PULLED FROM INVENTORY, SO PLEASE DON’T WASTE TIME HANGING AND TAGGING STAINED CLOTHES.
PLEASE DO NOT BRING CLOTHES THAT SMELL LIKE SMOKE-THEY WILL NOT BE PLACED ON THE FLOOR.
Maternity Clothes:
Current styles only, and only season appropriate. We will have a separate rack for maternity clothes. No worn nursing bras. There is a limit of 10 pieces of maternity clothes. This is in addition to the 100 pieces of hanging children’s clothes.
A Note about Tagging Guns:
We understand that tagging guns make prepping for the sale quicker, but PLEASE be mindful of where you place the barb. A barb put in the wrong place can ensure that your clothes won’t sell! Use the tag that is on the clothing or a seam to place your barb. You do not want to damage your clothing and make it unsellable.
Shoes:
All shoes must be children’s styles, in NEW to LIKE NEW condition. There is a limit of 10 pair of shoes, so only bring your very best! Worn looking shoes DO NOT SELL, so don’t spend time tagging them. Rain boots sandals as well as slippers will be accepted. Shoes should be secured together with a zip tie or twist-tie, with the tag either hanging from it or securely taped to the sole. If the shoes cannot be secured together with a tie, then they should be placed in a ziplock.
Toys:
We are committed to selling safe toys. Please check the CPSC website to check your items for recalls. The site is very easy to navigate and gives you many different ways to search for your item. You, as the seller, are responsible for not selling any recalled items.
Complete and Functioning Toys & Games
Please make sure that toys that require batteries have working batteries so that buyers know the toy functions properly. Make sure all games and puzzles have all parts. Just as you would not want your child disappointed by an incomplete game or puzzle, our customers would not either, so please take the time to check. ***If your items are found to be incomplete or non-functioning, you will be blocked from participating in future sales!*** Please take pride in your items, and only sell those that are working and complete!!!
We accept bikes, outdoor play equipment, ride-ons, video game systems as well as cartridges. No games of a violent nature will be accepted. No toy guns will be accepted. No stuffed animals, except those that take batteries and have a function, or those that are still new with the tags on.
Books, movies, and music:
Children’s books printed after 1985 will be accepted as well as pregnancy and parenting books. Often books of a similar theme, grouped together, will be more likely to sell. VHS & DVD movies must match the sleeve they are in. No R rated movies. All childrens’ music CD’s are welcome. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR TAPES AND DISKS STILL WORK AND DO NOT SKIP!!
Equipment:
Bassinets, changing tables, rocking chairs, gliders, nursery furniture, bouncers, saucers, swings, walkers, car seats, boppies, bumbos, play mats, high chairs, booster seats, slings, pack-n-plays, etc. Sorry, but for safety reasons we can no longer accept cribs into the sale. If we haven’t listed it, and you are unsure if it’s accepted, please just drop us an email. Again, please check the CPSC website for possible recalls of your items. All car seats must also pass the Consignor Car Seat Checklist and be accompanied by a signed copy of the checklist.
Bedding:
We accept all unstained sheets, bedding ensembles, and room decor.
Just a few important notes:
-
Please include the manual whenever possible. You can put it in a ziplock bag and tape it to your item. These are always appreciated.
-
Please bring any tools needed to assemble any equipment you will be selling. All baby equipment must be assembled at the sale. This is your responsibility.
-
We no longer accept cribs of any kind due to the changes in safety standards.
- We can no longer accept sleep positioners.
- We cannot accept magnetic play sets that have small pieces (i.e. the ball & rod type)
- We no longer accept breast pumps other than hospital grade pumps, or accessories unless they are new in the package and unused. Use this link to read about re-using pumps and about hospital grade pumps.
-
We cannot accept worn underwear, only those new and still in the package.
- We cannot accept children’s costume jewelery.
-
We also cannot accept used pacifiers, bottle nipples, or teethers.
-
Onesies size Newborn through 12 months can be bundled together and placed in a ziplock with the tag taped to the outside of the bag. PLEASE MAKE SURE THEY ARE UNSTAINED.
-
Bibs or other small items may be grouped together (similar items in a group) and put in a ziplock bag with the tag taped to the outside of the bag. Tape the bag shut.
-
Put tights with the tag pinned on, into a ziplock bag.
- We can no longer accept multiple hangers banded together as one item. You may use an attachable pants hanger that slips over the neck of a top hanger, but no banding hangers together. You may attach up to 3 coordinating pieces together as one item, but they should be pinned together on one hanger. DO NOT USE CLOTHES PINS!! Please use safety pins.
- Most importantly, please carefully look over all of your items and make sure they are still of good quality. We will be pulling anything we find with stains off of the sales floor, so don’t spend time tagging stained clothes or baby gear that will never get sold. Instead, please spend the time to clean your items.
