| Tagging Instructions for the Women's Sale |
|
The Clothesline now requires consignors to use the computerized tagging system (no more handwritten tags). It is easier for you and for us!
Benefits to consignors include: * faster tagging * consignors are paid VERY quickly (usually the day after the sale ends) * ability to check on what you have sold during the sale week * a record for your taxes of the unsold items you donate (we are unable to provide tax receipts) * an itemized online inventory is available after the sale (less paper ... a greener system!) * you keep the same consignor number for all future sales so you don't have to re-tag items * lots of other features that make consigning easier, faster, and more fun!
If you want to consign, but do not want to use the system, we have an option for you!
You may send us your tagging information and we will print your tags for you and mail them to you. The fee for this service is $10, plus .25 per page of tags (8 tags fit on a page), plus postage (or you may pick them up prior to the sale). There are limited slots for this service, so let us know immediately to reserve your space.

Shoppers are looking for the very best bargains! We encourage you to price your items to sell! You will sell more and have fewer items to pick-up after the sale!

**PLEASE READ** Add a stripe to your tag! In
order to help us sort your items for you, please do the following. On
items you are NOT DONATING, please put a narrow stripe of your
designated color on the bottom of the tag.
Color designation is based on your consignor number: (for example, Jane Smith with consignor # JS1234 would use pink) A-D and #s only: Yellow E-H: Blue I-N: Pink O-S: Green T-Z: Orange
Do NOT use a color other than your assigned color. It would be better to not stripe at all than to use the wrong color in this situation!
If you are donating the item, you do not need to stripe the tag.
If you have any questions please let me know.

Important Tagging Information ...... Please read carefully! You will need: * Cardstock paper (white) * Cable ties, string, or ribbon * Safety pins (NO stick pins) * Ziploc bags * Clear packing tape * Masking tape or painter's tape * Hangers (these will not be returned to you) * Pen We suggest you read through the instructions before gathering your supplies as you may not need everything listed. For example if all of your items are on hangers, you won't need ziploc bags. Cable ties can be found in the electrical section of Walmart, Home Depot, or Lowes and sometimes at the Dollar Store.
You decide what to price your items. Please price items in increments of $0.50 (for example, $3.00 or $3.50, not $3.10 or $3.25). You will sell more items if you price to sell! Please double check all tags for accuracy. We will not be responsible for mistagged or mispriced tags, incomplete tags, or items without tags. Please fill the tags out neatly and completely.
Items marked "Discount: Yes" will be reduced by 25% on Friday October 14 and by 50% on Saturday October 15. We encouraged you to discount your items!
|
Thank you for the items you donate! Items marked "Donate" are given to local charities who benefit from your generosity.
Again this fall, we will hold a Volunteer Appreciation Sale for volunteers only. Volunteers will be able to purchase items marked "Donate: Yes" for 75% off. (Items marked "No" for donation, will not be sold for 75% off, but will be available for sale during the Volunteer Appreciation Sale).
|
Bring your clothing on plastic or wire hangers. Clothes should be hung with the hanger hook facing the left as you look at it (like a question mark). Attach two-piece outfits together by hanging each item and attaching the two hangers. (Make a note on the tag that it is a 2-piece set). Please use pant hangers or attach pants using safety pins. Do not fold the pants over the hanger; this takes too much room, they fall off, and most shoppers will not take the time to look at them. For the Women's Sale, it is very important to attach tags in a way that still allows people to try on the garment.
|
Please prepare all of your tags according to these instructions. This makes it easy for shoppers and easy for us to ensure you get credit for all of your sales! If you have any questions please e-mail us (info@TheClothesline.biz), use the "Contact Us" link, or call Lisa at (804) 291-1451.
