Tagging your merchandise with is extremely important.
Without a tag showing the price, item description and your consignor number, we cannot identify who to pay. We only can accept items that are tagged!
Sign in with your consignor number to generate your tags. The tool guides you through the tag creation process, but if you have any questions, don't hesitate to email us at [email protected]. We're more than happy to help!
After you create and print your tags, make sure they are securely attached to your merchandise. If you make a mistake, please correct it online. Do not make handwritten changes on the tag. We will not sell any items that have altered tags. Shoplifters could alter tags and prices and try to pass them off as changes made by the consignor.

Tagging Instructions:
Supplies needed to tag your items:
- White cardstock (do not use reg. copy paper)
- Safety pins or tagging gun/fasteners for clothing
- Clear packing tape

To begin making your tags follow instructions:
2. Click the last choice on the left column – ‘Work with consigned inventory’
3. Click the first choice – ‘Work with my consigned items’
4. This is where you will start entering your items you will be selling
5. For each item you will choose a category, size, price, write a short description, and choose if you want to have the item go half-price on the last day of the sale, and choose if you would like to donate the item after the sale
6. When choosing the size, ALWAYS choose the smallest size that is indicated on your item. For example, an item that is 6-12 months, you will size as 6 months
7. When pricing your items, only use $1.00 increments. Prices cannot be priced lower than $2.00
8. Please include the name/brand and a short description of the item on the ‘Description Line’ so that if the tag comes off we can match it back to your item
9. If you have several items that are the same, for instance 4 pairs of size 3T jeans, you can enter a ‘Quantity’ and all 4 tags will be done with one entry
10. If you check the box ‘Check to Discount’ this means that you want this item to be sold for half-price on the last day (during the half-price sale)
11. If you check the box ‘Check to Donate’ this means that you want this item to be donated to charity instead of picking it up at the end of the sale
12. After you are done entering your items, click ‘I’m finished for now’ (on the left of the ‘submit’ button)
13. This will take you to the screen where you can print your tags

Thank you!
How to Tag Your Merchandise Correctly - IMPORTANT!
When affixing your tags, remember that the clearer your item is marked, the better it will sell. Tags sometimes get separated from their items—a clear description will help us match your item with your tag! We will have a bin for items without tags and a bin for lost tags. Tape/pin/fasten your tags securely on your items so that they don't come off.
Clothing
You can tag your clothing with safety pins.
Shoes
Books/Media
Small Loose Toys

Clothing
You can tag your clothing with safety pins.
- Pin tag on the upper right hand corner of the item.
- Tag must be pinned with either a safety pin.
- The hanger should face left when you look at your item (like a question mark "?"—see photos).
- Staples or straight pins are NOT allowed.
- Pants should be secured to hanger with large safety pins ONLY. Do not fold pants over the hanger. They fall off easily and get dragged around on the floor.
- To avoid leaving holes in more delicate fabrics please run your barb or safety pin through the size tag inside the clothing or in a seam.
- Please do not place any clothing in Ziploc bags.
- If you are tagging clothing sets use only on barcoded tag. In terms of sets, generally people only put a tag on the item that is going to be on the top of the hanger and none on the other piece. Make sure the set cannot get separated. Please don’t use two of the barcoded tags on a set because it would make things confusing at checkout.
Shoes
- Use a plastic tie or a piece of string to secure pairs of shoes together (see photo).
- Secure your tags to your shoes using the same plastic tie.
- Use packing tape on the top of the tag to secure it to the plastic tie, but please don't tape over the barcode.
- If you have fancy shoes please put shoes in Ziploc bags but make sure the tag is attached to the shoes.
Books/Media
- Tape tag on the back of the book or on the inside back cover with masking or painters tape so that the book does not get damaged when the tag is removed. Please don’t use packing tape.
- For DVD's, and CD's, tape the tag on the back, but please do not tape them shut so that the drop off volunteers can check them to make sure the contents do not have major scratches and that the contents match the casing. After they have been checked, please assist the drop off volunteer packing tape the checked items closed.
- Do not place books in Ziploc bags. Shoppers like to look inside the books to make sure the pages are not torn or damaged.
Small Loose Toys
- If you have small toys with lots of loose pieces (ex. blocks, small cars, soldiers) put them all in a Ziploc bag. Use Ziploc Brand "Big Bags" for larger pieces, if needed.
- Secure the top of the bag with packing tape.
- Tape your tag on the top of the main item, handwrite tags for the other pieces that include your consignor number, description of the item, and part __ of ___. If the parts are small, put them in a Ziploc bag and put the handwritten tag in the bag. Then, use packing tape to attach close the bag and to securely attach it to the main item.
