Item Preparation
The better your items look the more you can charge, so take the time to prepare your items correctly.

• All items will be inspected at drop-off. Unacceptable items will be returned to you.
Please use safety pins, no straight pins!
• Carefully inspect clothing, toys, etc. All clothing must be clean and in good condition. Do not tag clothing that is worn, outdated or stained.
• All buttons, snaps, and zippers should be closed and in working order.
• Clean and press all garments. The better your items look the more you can charge and the faster they will sell.
• All clothing must be on a hanger or safety pinned to a hanger. Pants and skirts should be safety pinned, not just hanging on the hanger unless you use a hanger made for pants and skirts. When safety pinning pants, diaper covers or shirts to a shirt, pin them to the back side of the shirt (not underneath where they cannot be seen).
• Clothing should be hung on the hanger so the hanger makes a question mark (?).
• Shoes must be tied together. No shoes in ziplock bags.
• Toys that require batteries must have them. Toys must be clean and in working order.
• Toys, games, equipment, cribs, etc. must have all pieces, be clean, and not be out of date. Your crib must be assembled for the sale. Allow yourself time to do so at drop-off.
• Small items (such as socks, tights or sippy cups) may be grouped together in a large ziplock bag. Secure your bag closed with a piece of clear packing tape.
• Nursery bedding must be washed with no stains. Bedding that is torn or stained will not be accepted. Sheets, blankets, bumpers, and quilts can be safety pinned to a hanger or placed in a large ziplock bag.
• Stuffed animals will only be accepted if they “do” something like move, light up or make noise. If they require batteries, they must have them.
• Videos and DVD’s must be in their matching covers.
• We will only accept car seats that are less than five years old. Please check the following websites for recalls on car seat: www.nhtsa.gov or www.carseat.org or call the D.O.T. Auto Safety Hotline at 1888-DASH-2-DOT. We only accept car seats that have not been in an accident. Car seats must have a sticker on the base that gives manufacture information to be accepted. We will be checking this sticker at time of check-in. Consignors will be asked to sign a waiver at check-in verifying that their carseat is not on a recall list, is less than five years old, and has never been in an accident.
