The Consignment Process
Ready to consign your ladies fine fashion and accessories?
Please review the steps below to become a valued consignor with A Renaissance Woman.
Book an Appointment
If you don’t NEED IT, WANT IT or USE IT – CONSIGN IT! You’ll be surprised at just how much monies you can make for the good quality items that are taking up closet space and that you no longer want.
Your Items
“A Renaissance Woman” accepts both clothing and accessories such as purses, shoes and jewellery as they are also in high demand. And always within the appropriate season (see seasonal calendar)
Value
One very important fact to take into consideration is that if any of the tags off your designer or branded label items have been removed we cannot consign. It is impossible for us to market any item if we cannot prove either designer or size to the customers.
Customers Purchase
Labels do command the most money and the quickest sale. Our aim is to get the best possible price for your items as it’s the quality that sells…so we will be very picky at our intake and cannot guarantee that we will accept all items.
Your Money
An itemized inventory list of intake and sold items is available upon request and you can collect your money at any time during regular business hours.
Do It Again!
Once you’ve experienced the way we do business, and you’ve unlocked the value hiding in your closet – we’re confident you’ll be back again.
We Offer The Best Consignment Experience
Among the various ways you can sell gently loved items we offer the best experience including both value and price.
How It Works
To get ready to consign with us there are a few steps you need to take to make sure your consignment experience with us is a breeze.
Intake Criteria
We cannot not accept items brought in garbage bags. Neatly folded in tubs or laundry baskets are acceptable. A maximum of 20 hanging fashion items only per appointment. This allows us to carry a good breakdown of sizes. Shoes, purses and the accompanying accessories are above and beyond the 20 item limit.
Select It
Only fashions that are not older than TWO years will be accepted. The reason being, this is what most customers are looking to purchase; there are some exceptions which will be taken into consideration at time of intake.
Prepare It
Make sure each item is freshly laundered or dry cleaned. We request that you bring items in on hangers, your hangers will be returned at time of intake. If we discover an item is stained or damaged after intake we will remove it from the sales floor and inventory immediately.
Sell It
We will select the items to accept and give you a quick intake receipt, a more detailed inventory list is recorded after the initial intake. How do we set the prices? We determine a base price on the brand name along with the customer demand for that particular item.
