We all know the amazing benefits of consigning clothing, furniture and accessories. But before you get started on your consignment journey, there are just a few things you need to do before driving out to your local store. At Turn Style, we can’t accept everything, so ask yourself these questions before bringing your items in!
Is my clothing from a high-quality brand?
Turn Style is committed to providing high-quality, gently used items. Our inventories are also seasonal and reflect current trends in fashion and home interior design. This means we are more selective than other consignment stores.
Is my item in like-new condition?
Your item should look as good as it did the day you bought it. We sell items that you could wear right out of the store or immediately use to accent your home. Generally, we encourage clothing items that are three seasons or newer. Just like you, Turn Style shoppers are a savvy, stylish group and want to find great deals on current fashion styles and décor pieces!
If your item is missing anything (buttons, zippers, etc.) or has any stains, we unfortunately will not be able to accept it. When in doubt, ask yourself if you would buy your consignment item if you saw it in the store.
Has my clothing item been freshly washed?
This one speaks for itself. Clean clothes are happy clothes, and happy clothes get sold (meaning you’ll earn some cash back!). So get those washers washing and those dryers drying before bringing items in for consignment!
Is my clothing item pressed and on a hanger?
Nobody wants to purchase wrinkly clothes. Give your item a good ironing before consignment to ensure that it looks brand new! Clothes, accessories, and home furnishings are more likely to sell if they are well presented and look neat. People like to envision purchases on themselves or in their homes, so give them a fresh canvas to use their imaginations.
Taking the time to assess and prepare your consignment items will help you successfully consign your clothes and get them sold faster, which will put money in your pocket, make room in your closet, and give you the green light for your next shopping endeavor.
