Consignor FAQ
Why is there an $20 registration fee?
Your registration fee helps cover the cost of the location rental, advertising, insurance, display racks, tables, supplies, etc.
I'm a registered consignor. How do I sign up for direct deposit?
Please get in touch with Lisa to set up a direct deposit. Email me at info@saleforkids.com, and we can complete this by email. You will need access to your email when we do this.
Is there any other way to tag my items, besides online?
No, unfortunately, there's not. We require that all items are entered into the inventory program, and tags are printed out because it makes the entire process MUCH more accessible, quicker, and smoother.
Can we use barcode tags from other consignment sales?
We are not able to accept other sale tags. Our tags are unique to our sales; our database will only recognize our tags.
Will I be able to track my sales during the live sale?
No, our program is not set up to track live sales. Sold inventory reports will be available online when checks are posted.
How long until I get my settlement payment?
Please allow 14-21 days after the end of the Teen and Adult sale to receive your profit check.
Do I have to be there to sell my items?
Consignors do not need to be at the sale during all business hours. You can earn a higher % if you join our team and help during the sale week. See team member information.
Do consignors have to become a Team Member?
No, but they can earn up to 80% profit if they do. When you join us as a team member, you can see how the consignment sale works. You can talk to other consignors and see firsthand what sells and how the pricing of your items works. We ask for a minimum of 3 hours to help because, without your help, the sale is not possible.
Do I have to provide my own tables and racks?
No. Westmoreland Sale for Kids provides all the equipment. We have the buildings set up in departments for you. All items will be grouped with other like items (e.g., all 2 T boys on one rack)
Where can I find wire hangers, pins and tags?
Ask your local dry cleaner for recycled wire hangers. Ask the family if they have some from a dry cleaner or if they have uniforms cleaned. Westmoreland Sale for Kids collects hangers year around. Call to see if I have any to give out. Ask for the hangers if you know someone who wears uniforms to work and their company cleans the uniforms for them. Safety pins are available in the sewing section of most discount stores (Walmart, JoAnn Fabrics, or in bulk online). The tape is available in the office supply sections of major stores. WHITE Card stock, 65-67 weight, is recommended for printing tags. (Can be found at Walmart, Office Max, and Staples).
Will I get a Receipt if I decide to donate my unsold items?
With the donated items going to 3-5 different places at this time, I am unable to track where your items are being donated to, so a written receipt of your donated items will not be given out. You are welcome to pick up your items Sunday, 7-8 pm, and donate them yourself.
