How To Consign
From The Heart strives to make consignment fun and easy.
Here’s how it works:
• Please call us to make an appointment at 484-509-4441.
• We accept up to 25 total pieces of clothing/accessories/jewelry.
• Items must remain on consignment for 90 days (except seasonal items).
• Individual consignors receive 40% on items selling under $99, 50% for items selling between $99.01 - $199.99, 60% for any item sold over $200, and on high-end luxury items, consignor receives 70% (ie. Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Prada...).
• A consignor account will be maintained for you. Choose your payout option from the following three selections. 1. Funds in your account can be used as store credit. 2. Pick up your check at the store. 3. With a minimum of $35 in your account, choose to have a check mailed to you at the beginning of the month. A $2.00 fee will be deducted for postage/envelope. Consignor funds are available at any time. Checks are written for the amount. Cash is not given.
• There are 2 options for Consignor’s with unsold merchandise after the markdown period :
- Store Manage - Unsold items will either be re-consigned at a lower price or donated to one of several worthy non-profit organizations in Berks County.
- Return - Consignors choosing to have their items returned can pick up their items after 90 days or before the end of the season. It is the consignor's responsibility to contact our store after their 90-day period has ended for pick up.
