Hello, there!

Thinking about consigning? Below are a few good reasons to consign:

  • You set the price of your items.

  • You will receive 65% of the selling price.

  • You get to shop on Consignor night before the sale is open to the public.

  • You receive a pass to give to a guest that can shop before the sale is open to the public.

  • You get your check at Pick Up which is just a few days after the sale is over.

  • Your items will be seen by thousands of shoppers from all over the Tennessee Valley.  

  • We do the advertising for you.  We advertise on Facebook, in newspapers, magazines and flyers.  We advertise in Alabama, Tennsessee, and Mississippi.

  • You have the option to donate your unsold items.  We give to several different local charities.

Safety Recalls

 

We will not be consigning drop-side cribs/baby beds due to safety recalls.

In August 2008, legislation was passed known as the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) in order to protect children ages 12 and under against the effects of lead in products such as clothing, accessories, furniture and toys.  Implementation of this law is to go into effect Tuesday, February 10, 2009. The intention of the Law was to increase greater regulation for manufacturers and retailers and not the resale industry.

We at Dittos For Kiddos would never intentionally sell anything to the consumer that would harm anyone or would ever intentionally expose them or other children to the harmful effects of lead.

Below, you will find links that will educate and inform you on the latest information regarding the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) as well as other safety information and recalls.

Drop Off Tips

We try to make dropping off your items as quick and painless as possible.  Here are a few guidelines to follow when bringing your items to drop-off:

  • Bring at least 15 items to consign.

  • Don't wait until the last day to drop-off your items.  The lines tend to be longer on the last day.

  • If you have more than 100 items you need to schedule an appointment and avoid the long lines.

  • Order your clothes by size and sex.  It will make it easier to put them on the sale racks.

  • Avoid bringing small children to drop-off.  Space is limited and it can get very congested.  (Children are allowed.)

  • Make sure you follow the tagging instructions.  Check each tag to make sure you have included your consignor number.

  • Put your name and consignor number on any baskets and rolling racks that you bring.  We have baskets and racks that probably look just like yours.

  • You MUST sign a contract before you give us your items.

  • Make sure the information we have on file for you is correct.

  • If you will not be picking up your items or check on pick-up day and would like for us to mail your check, we will need a self-addressed stamped envelope at drop-off.

Pick Up Tips

 

  • Know your consignor number.  All items that are to be returned are sorted by consignor number. 

  • If you send someone to pick up your items, please make sure they know your consignor number.

  • You will receive your check if your sales covered the advertising fee.

  • You will receive the cards of the items ($10 or more) that were sold.

  • You will receive a printout that shows the amount and price of the items that you sold.  The total will be the sales less the consignor advertising fee and less our percentage of the sales.

  • There are always a few cards that don't have consignor numbers.  If you know you had an item that you did not get paid for, please check the display of cards that did not have a consignor number.
