Seasonal consignment sale pros can make over ,000 twice a year just selling used kids clothing & toys. How do they do it? Many are pros at picking up clothing & toys in the off-season at HUGE discounts. Then, they sell those items at consignment sales.
Here is a list of our favorite "off-season" tips to help you build your inventory for the next sale's season.
Baby Play Yard
Remember the "Rules!" It's important to keep in mind WHAT SELLS BEST when you make your selections.
* Top sellers: Big Items like riding toys, playground equipment, etc
* 2nd Place: NWT (New with Tags) - especially Larger Sizes and Boys 4T+
* 3rd Place: Boutique and "Name Brand" Clothing
1. Craigslist & Freecycle
People give away a TON of stuff - FOR FREE or CHEAP - on Craigslist & Freecycle.
2. Yard Sales
Yard sales are a GREAT place to buy bigger items and toys. Clothing is hit or miss, but a lot of times you can offer to buy the "whole lot" for cheap and then filter through.
3. Thrift Stores
Thrift stores like Goodwill & the Salvation Army definitely offer the best deals for clothing & toys. Look for steals on name brand clothing, boutique items and toys. Prices are great, but don't get wrapped up in the moment - be choosy and carefully examine clothing for stains, tears or wear.
4. Shop Deep Clearance
Target, Babies R Us, Children's Place, Gymboree and even your favorite boutiques have some great DEEP clearance items. NWT (New with Tags) Items always sell really well at sales, so stock up! Boys are hardest on clothes, so NWT move much faster than "well-loved" play clothes.
NWT items can sell for 50% of the retail of the price. Just make sure to remove your "clearance" or "sale" price from the tag. (Then people will learn your secret!)
5. Ask Your Friends
Don't be overly awkward, of course. But a gentle reminder to your friends that you are a consignment-sale-aholic may make them think twice before they just drop off that next set of clothing to Goodwill.
6. Pimp Your Friends
[I love this one!] If you have friends who "don't have time for consignments sales" or who are consignment sale virgins, offer a split of your own. Tag their items for them, set them up with a separate consignor number and then split the proceeds.
