subject: Earn Money Consigning Childrens Items by:David C. DuPont [print this page] Children clothing, toys, children furniture, etc. is expensive and often under used. A great way to earn extra money is to consign your childrens new & gently used furniture, clothing, toys, books, sporting equipment, DVDs etc. Consignment shops and consignment events will sell your childs items for you and you will almost always make more money than you would selling your childs equipment, childs clothing & toys in a yard sale.
Consigning is easy. All you have to do is clean house!!
You will be amazed at the quantity of unused and outgrown toys, children clothes, children shoes, etc. you will find in your closet! Once you have gathered your childs gently used clothes, toys, etc together, inspect them for wear, tear, stains, etc. Resale shops & resale event only take items that are in great shape. All electronics will need to work and must include operational batteries. Remember: Only sell items that you would purchase.
Childrens consignment shops will inspect, price and sell childrens furniture, shoes, toys, equipment, sporting goods, accessories, etc. They will usually keep your money on your account and will mail a check only when requested. Typical childrens consignment shops will keep 50% to 80% of the sale and if your items do not sell within 90 days they become property of the consignment shop.
Childrens consignment events operate like a consignment shop but consignment events only last 2 to 14 days and often have a whole lot more consignors and items. You prepare your childs items, tag them & you name your own price. You make 60% to 80% of your sales and a check is either presented the last day of the sale or your check is mailed within 2 weeks of the end of the sale. Unclaimed items are usually donated to a charity.
Due to our economic climate, more and more parents are discovering consignment. Consignment shops are expanding and consignment events are popping up all over the country. Consigning your childs unused or gently used clothing, toys, shoes, etc is a great way to earn lots of money! To find a childs consignment shop or childrens resale event near you do an internet search.youll be surprised at how many consignment shops are in your area! Youll also be surprised at how easy it is to make money consigning. All you need to do is to prepare your items (clean them and visually inspect for wear, tears, stains, etc) and consign. Happy consigning!!
