drop-off / pick-up procedures
 

Consign with us!

As a consignor, you prepare, tag, and bring your quality items. We will market, advertise, provide the venue, and host the sale. You earn 65% of your sales and get to shop before we're open to the public! You can earn 70% of your sales by volunteering with us.


Consigning is Easy!

Click here or our online signup link to sign up to be a consignor. If you consigned with another JBF sale previously, you must edit your record and check the "Consignor" box through the online signup page so we know to expect you at our current event. Consignors will drop off their acceptable items at the venue during the drop-off period. Then accepted items will be displayed/placed, by the consignor, on the sales floor. We will run the operations of the sale, with the help of our volunteers. When the sales event is over, unsold items can either be picked up by the consignor or donated to our local charity partner.

Shop Early!

Shopping the consignor presale is one of the greatest benefits of being a consignor! When you check in during the drop-off period, we will provide you with two passes to the consignor presale -- one for you and one for a friend. For more information about our presales, see our presale information page and for the specific times, see our Calendar page.

Interested in shopping even earlier than the consignor presale? See our Volunteer page for the details.


Make money!

Within two weeks of the sales event, we will mail you a check for 65%-70% of the sale prices of your items that sold. A consignor fee of $10.00 will be deducted from each consignor's check. You determine how much money you make, since you set the sale prices of your items and determine if each item will be 50% off on our half price day.


What can I sell?

Consignors need to have at least 20 items or $50 worth of items. We accept pretty much anything related to children, maternity, and babies. Everything must be clean and in working order. Clothes cannot have stains, holes, or tears and must be in current fashion and of the current season. We accept car seats only if they are less than 5 years old, were not involved in a car accident, and have not been recalled. We also accept furniture related to children and babies such as cribs, changing tables, toddler furniture, and rocking chairs. Please see our merchandise prep pages for more information.  Need help with pricing your items?  Visit our Price Guide for help.

What if some of my items don't sell?

You can either pick up your unsold items at the end of the sales event or you can elect to have your unsold items donated to our local charity partner. You can claim the value of the donated items as a tax deduction. Please remember to select "Donate" on the item's sales tag if you want that item to be donated at the end of the sales event. See our merchandise prep page for more details about the tagging guidelines.

Sold items will be deleted from www.myjbftags.com a couple of months after the sale.
