The Basics
Consignment stores sell gently-used (and some new) clothes, toys & other goods. Shops buy upfront or sell on behalf of consumers (every store as its own operating policy) – shoppers score deals on pre-loved items, sellers make money on items they’re not using anymore.

Where to go

• Online. Buy, sell or swap online – it’s effortless and the selection tends to be broader as you’re pulling from a national inventory.
• Physical stores. South Florida has several specializing in children’s clothes, toys, furniture & other goods (see below for complete list)
• Specialty sales. 1-2 special “event” sales. Think of a massive sample sales with dozens of individual vendors.

How to get started shopping

• Go without the kids. Fewer distractions
• Measure your children before you shop. Most stores have a no-return policy
• Shop with a list. Need summer clothes? A winter coat? A stroller? Make a list in advance to avoid getting distracted
• How to get started selling..
• Find a specialty children’s store that displays its merchandise well. It will likely be more profitable for you
• Clean your items. Presentation is king. Wash, fold, iron, polish – make the items look like something you’d want to buy
• Read the contract. Every store has its own rules, make sure you understand them & have a written contract
• Plan ahead. Call the consignment shop ahead of time to see what they’re looking for
• Do some research. Google around to see how much your items are worth and make sure you’ll be happy with your profits once you factor in the store’s cut
