You will need at least 20 accepted clothing items to start an account. Clothing must be Ironed or (STRAIGHT From The DRYER) ON Hangers, GENTLY used, Freshly Laundered, Smoke FREE, Musty, Mothball, and Pet Hair FREE.
Why Hangers?
It's because your time is valuable. Items hung on hangers are much
easier to look over, inspect, process and sell. Everything
moves along more quickly and gets you on your way faster. When items aren't on hangers, it
can be a little overwhelming to the consignor when they are "searching"
for that "right hanger" amid our giant hanger rack! It can become a gridlock of consignors trying
to hang items and employees trying to inspect items. If
you combine this with other consignors
waiting to drop off we have a traffic jam and major confusion. And.....
It's only fair to our consignors that do bring their clothing in On
hangers.
Thank you for your cooperation:-)
No appointment is necessary
we accept consignments during regular business hours. However, if it is
your first time to consign you may need to allow about 45 minutes for
us to look through and select the items that we feel will sell best.
Wire hangers are acceptable.
If you have your items on tube hangers we can change them out while you wait or save them until your next trip to Elite Repeat. We do not count shoes, purses or toys towards the 20 items. After you are an
accepted consignor you may bring in LESS than 20 items to drop off. You
are welcome to make your own inventory list if you'd like but we won't
need it. Our sophisticated consignment software will keep track of all
the details, so you don't have to worry.

Collars
Cuffs
Underarms for Stains or Deodorant
Crotch Area (in order to save everyone any embarrassment please check before bringing your items in thank you)
Sorry, no out-dated clothes. Clothing items need to be newer than 2
years because styles change rapidly.
A good presentation will increase the value of the items you are selling. Remember your items are in competition with others.

Keep

least $10.00 for the item new we can't sell it for the minimum of $5.99
The brands we usually do NOT accept are Faded Glory, White
Stag, Circo, Xhilaration, Forever 21, Wet Seal, Rue 21, Simply Basic,
Cherokee, and Garanimals. Normally, we will NOT accept
clothing from Kmart, Target, WalMart or other discount stores.
In order to continue offering clothes at competitive prices it has
become necessary for us to limit our inventory. Items that HAVE NOT
sold well for the shop and usually will NOT be accepted for consignment are onesies, sleepers,
socks, hats, plain tees and even some of the name brands like Old Navy, Gosh, and
Gap. Sometimes if it's a 2 or 3 piece outfit and all pieces are the same size we may accept it for consignment.
Old Navy, Gosh, Gap, Carters, etc. Brand clothing size 8 & under are usually acceptable IF they are in very good condition.
Sizes 10 and up should be brands like Justice, Abercrombie, Tony Hawk, Polo,
Ralph Lauren, Baby Phat, Ecko, Roxy, True Religion, Seven, O'Neill,
Hurley, Urban Outfitters, Juicy, Etc.
Consignors that bring in their
items and clothing "rack ready" will be processed before those requiring more
attention. Rack Ready means Pressed, Snapped, Buttoned (you don't have to button the very top button of shirts, or buttons on sleeves), Strings Tied, and Ready to Price.
