How does shopping consignment differ?

So here is a quick breakdown:

1. Thrift - These items are donated by the original owner and range widely in quality and condition. (Example: Goodwill)

2. Resale - These items are paid for in bulk. The acceptance criteria varies however is based on quantity not quality. (Example: Clothes Mentor)

3. Consignment - We work with the garment owners. They bring in articles based on an original criteria set out in the Cosigner's Agreement. They are inspected by our highly qualified staff and any item that does not meet our standards is rejected. Once the items sells, the consignor is paid a percentage based on what the article sold for. (Example: Tami's Chique Unique Boutique)

There are many things that set Consignment boutique's apart from resale and thrift.

1. There is no 'sifting through'. We arrange the boutique not only by garment type (pant, short, dress, top etc..) but we group by size and color and in some cases by designer.

2. Our highly trained staff knows our inventory and is available whether you are simply looking for that next great outfit or have a special event you are shopping for.

So, why consign?

Consigning fashions is a way of listing your gently used, high-end clothing and accessories with a consignment store, which will then sell them to other customers and give you a percentage of the profit. Consigning fashions has many benefits, such as:

• You can earn money from your unwanted clothes and use it to buy new ones or save it for other purposes.
• You can declutter your closet and free up space for items that you actually wear and love.
• You can find designer brand clothes at low prices and enjoy the quality and style of premium labels.
• You can help the environment by reducing textile waste and extending the life cycle of your clothes.
• You can express your unique style and personality by mixing and matching different pieces from various brands and eras.

So, in future, if you want the best quality with the least hassle, SHOP CONSIGNMENT!
