From a consigners perspective, their policies have gotten ridiculous. They now charge you a $10.00 annual fee PLUS $3.50 EVERY time you drop items off. In addition to that craziness, they also want clothing brought in on hangers, pressed/completely wrinkle free. Quite frankly I don't have the time to go thru all of my items & either iron them or take them to the dry cleaners (which even if I go to the cheap cleaners for $2.00 & I end up with maybe $3-5 for the item when it sells, doesn't even make it worth the trouble). They also want to take a week or so to go thru your stuff & either donate what they won't take or call you & you have to make ANOTHER trip to go pick it up. Too much time/effort to make it effective for me. It also seems when my items sell, I get less for them than if I would have taken them elsewhere.
As said in other people's reviews most of the items they have are very middle of the road (i.e., Express, GAP, etc), so it's not like they're only taking designer apparel to warrant such strict consignment policies. I will stick to taking stuff to My Sister's Closet which is easier to work with, they don't charge you fees, and tell you right then & there what they want to take. I feel I also get top dollar for my items at My Sister's Closet as opposed to here.
