TOYS Clean your toys of crayon marks and dirt! A little elbow grease goes a long way when in comes to money in your pocket! Put yourself in the shoes of the SHOPPER. For every item you put into the sale, ask yourself if you would purchase it in the shape you are presenting it.

CLOTHING must be in excellent shape. Inspect them for missing buttons, make sure zippers are working. Launder and iron clothing. If your items do not smell fresh or if they look overly wrinkly, they will not be accepted.

SAFETY PIN YOUR TAGS to the upper right corner (looking AT your item).

SHOES Tie in pairs by shoelaces. (no boxes please). Laces and shoes must be in excellent condition. Attach tag with a LARGE safety pin through shoelace eyes. If the shoes don’t have laces, or straps, bind them together with twine or yarn and attach the card to the yarn. Be creative, but make sure the shoes are secured together well, and still completely visible to the shoppers. Bring your best! Limit of 8 pair.

BOOKS If selling a book by itself, please attach the tag to the back of the book with packaging tape, be sure to only secure the top portion so we can cut the tag at check out. If selling books in a set, please tie the books up like a package with string. (please see the picture). You may then secure the tag with a safety pin to the string or tape the tag to the back of the last book. Make sure that the shopper can read the titles of all the books in the set (such as by the spine of the books). Very important, remember to check each book for writing, tears, and missing pages. We will also not accept any workbooks with pages filled in.

Bedding (Comforters and Sheet Sets) There are 2 ways to package these items. First, you may use a large clear plastic bag, such as the one it came in or a storage bag. Second, you may tie the item like a package (Please see the picture). Please take care to check for stains and tears. We will be inspecting these items, so please wait to secure the item until after check-in.

LOOSE ITEMS like bibs, cloth diapers, bottles, bows, etc. will need to be in clear Ziploc type bags with the tag attached to the OUTSIDE of the bag with a safety pin. WE will secure the bags with packaging tape AFTER inspection.

VHS, DVD, VIDEO GAMES Must be in original cases. Do not tape box closed, this will be done AFTER inspection to secure the item. Using packaging tape, affix the tag to the back of the box. Tape should not be below the line on the tag so the bottom portion can be removed easily upon purchase.
