sell

Pickled Peppers Kids makes it easy to sell last season’s kids and maternity items to pay for this season’s fashions. During the PPK Spring event the average amount of money that consignors took home was $137. One consignor even took home over $750! So it really does pay to consign.

Here is all you need to do to consign with PPK!

Register
All consignors, both new to PPK and those who have consigned with us in past events, must register as new consignors to receive a consignor number and to select a password. These two items will grant you access to your Consignor Homepage, where you can use our automated inventory and tagging system to enter your sale items and print out tags. This barcode-based system tracks your sale items and delivers an estimated sale balance during the sale. At your Consignor Homepage, you can also view and sign up for Volunteer shifts AND schedule a time to drop off your sale items.

Prepare Your Sale Items
First, check out the list of what we accept at the sale. You would be surprised at what you may find on the list that may be just sitting in a closet! Next, make sure your sale items are washed, ironed, brushed, primped, whatever. Presentation is everything! Make them look as nice as they can look. Then follow the pricing guide and tagging instructions. All items MUST be tagged using the online system–NO EXCEPTIONS. Also, the deadline to finish all online registration, inventory entry, tag printing, drop-off scheduling, or volunteer sign-ups is October 4th at 11:59 pm.

Drop Off Sale Items
Once your sale items are prepared and organized, take them to the sale at your scheduled Drop Off time. You can schedule your Drop Off time through your Consignor Homepage.

During the Sale. . .
Throughout the sale week there will be daily updates to the website so you can check your Estimated Earnings and Sold Items.

Pick Up Sale Items
After the sale ends, you can come pick up your unsold items. Or you can choose to have any or all of your unsold items donated to charity. Just make those selections as you are entering the items in the online Inventory system prior to the sale. These and any items that remain unclaimed at the end of the Pick Up day will be donated to charity.

Payday!
Within 2 weeks after the sale ends, you should receive a check for 2/3 of your total sales minus a $7.00 registration fee. For example, if you sell $200, then your check would be $126.40. That’s way more than the pennies on the dollar that you would make selling your items at a consignment shop!

  1. How should I drop off my items? Just put everything into large bags?

  2. you can put the towels in large ziplock or bedding bags. You can also roll or fold and tape securely around the middle so it will stay that way. Zip tie your tag through the tag if possible.

  3. Hi..when are you going to update the website to show items sold?

  4. We are going to try to do that once a day. I just spoke with Rachel and she is going to do that right now.
