How to Consign with Us

While we do accept a wide variety of women’s clothing, shoes, and accessories, there is a small group of items we do not accept, or that we only rarely accept, simply because we have seen that these items don't sell well for us. Please contact us if you have questions about specific brands.

This includes:
• Traditional professional office wear (suits, unless they can be sold as separates) - sometimes
• Used swimsuits, intimates or pajamas (including socks, tights, undergarments) - never
• Wedding gowns and other formalwear - sometimes
• Locally-available big-box brands from Walmart, Kohls, Target (some exceptions might be made) - rarely
• Fast fashion brands like Amazon, Shein, and others. - rarely

Other Considerations
We will accept high-end costume jewelry that is non-precious metals and stones (Brighton is a good example), but we prefer sterling silver, gold, and other non-reactive materials like fabric, thread, wool, etc. Swimsuits/socks/pajamas may be accepted ONLY if they are brand-new in the packaging.

Items should be in excellent like-new condition. We have high standards for what we’ll take, so be sure to pre-screen your items and do your best to ensure they are in ready-to-sell condition.

At the time of the drop off, all items must meet the following standards – no exceptions:

• Freshly laundered or dry cleaned as appropriate (we check pockets of jackets), minimal wrinkles please
• No stains/odors, holes or tears, pills or pulls, broken zippers, missing buttons or other fasteners that affect the usability of the item
• Items with excessive pet hair or smelling of smoke, moth balls, or mildew can not be accepted – NO EXCEPTIONS as this affects the quality of other items and the store in general
• Clothing should be neatly folded in bins or boxes – please do not shove items tightly into containers or plastic bags as this will cause wrinkles in garments. Please do not hang knit items (tee shirts, sweaters) because this deforms the garment. Please button up all shirts.
• Shoes must be paired together
• Jewelry must be in good condition (minimal tarnish, no obvious flaws) and earrings must be in pairs

Due to staffing and storage limitations, we must set standards for item limits.

• If dropping by with no appointment, please limit items to under 10. We may or may not have time to review these items for you as you wait, depending on how the day is going. If you call ahead, we are more likely to be able to accommodate you. If you are a NON donator, please plan on waiting a little longer than usual, or come back later in the day to pick up any items we cannot take.
• Small appointments may bring UP TO 15 items.
• Large appointments may bring UP TO 30 items. Anything larger than that requires special advance approval and booking from staff; please call after making your Large appointment online to verify that we will have time at your appointment to review everything. If we are able to accommodate more items, we will book you two appointments in a row, but only if requested.
• There are no appointments on Saturdays, because this is our busiest sales day, but if you need us to make an exception, please call and we will manually schedule an appointment for you.
• Please do not bring in any more than 10 jewelry items at a time unless you get advance approval from the store.

• *If you choose to have all unaccepted items donated, we may accept consignment intake outside of regular consignment hours.

• Jewelry items of lower value expire on the same schedule as clothing (63 days); higher-value items (over $15) do not expire until we feel they have been around for long enough. We will contact the consignor if multiple items are being expired. If this is important to you, please keep track of higher-value items in your account and come reclaim them if they have been on the floor for more than 120 days. (4 months)

• High-value couture items: We try our best to ensure that all items being sold are what they claim to be. We will NEVER sell items we know or suspect to be counterfeit, even labeled as such. If you purchase a high-value item from Persimmon that you later find to not be genuine (through professional authentication services), we will refund your purchase price and the amount you paid for the authentication up to $20.

• Watches: We expect all consigned watches to have batteries for us to be able to confirm that they are in working order.
