Squishmallows/TY Beanie Babies (SPRING 2023)
We now accept these to sell. They must be like new and have their fabric brand tags attached.
Seasonal Changes
Hoodies (Under Armour and Nike) and sleep sacks are now accepted all year long. See our updated list of seasonal items accepted at each sale. We’ve detailed which Holiday clothing to sell at each sale, and which Pittsburgh Sports Teams. Cleveland and Buffalo sports teams for Erie as well.
Car Seats (Fall 2023)
We are now accepting car seats! All of these procedures are in place after conducting research on the law and from other sales. They will sell if you price them reasonably!
Here’s the rules: No EXCEPTIONS!
- You CANNOT choose to donate an unsold car seat. We can not donate used car seats. Car seats that remain unsold at the end of the sale, must be picked up from the sale location.
- Car seats must have two years of use left. Check the date on the manufacturers tag. This ensures a buyer will get two years of use out of it.
- No expired car seats or car seats that have been in an accident If you try to sell a car seat that has expired, we will charge you a $100 fee to dispose of it. This will be deducted from your consignor check. You will sign a release for each car seat declaring that the seat is not recalled and has never been in an accident. This will remain with us for our records. You will sign these forms at drop off.
Bundles
We recommend you bundle no more than 3 clothing items together (three shirts, three pants, shirt/pants/sweater). Any more than this gets heavy for the hanger and doesn’t sell as well.
We recommend when bundling your books you use string or ribbon and NOT a resealable bag. Books in bags don’t sell as well.
Read through Bundling Items for Consignment Sales for helpful hints and rules.
New Grab N Go section (Spring 2023)
We have a new section we are calling Grab ‘N Go. Everything in this section is in a sealed zip top bag. Nothing is priced over $5. This is bundling of like items at its finest. This helps us keep our toy tables clear of small $2 items.
Examples: Bag of McDonald’s toys for $2, Gallon bag of bouncy balls, bag of bath toys (no mold!), Bag of little farm animals, Bag of army men, Bag of small finger puppets. The goal of this section is an EASY way for parents who bring their kids to the sale to grab a small toy for being a great shopper! It’s an easy yes, because it’s small, priced right, and doesn’t matter if it gets lost under minivan seats on the way home.
