We never know exactly what merchandise will be at our sale, but we can tell you what we accept from our consignors. We accept women’s (including maternity), children’s, and for the first time, men’s clothing. We also accept toys, games, books, sporting goods, electronics, CDs, DVDs, computer games, nursery furniture/decor/bedding/, infant items, purses, belts, and shoes. Infant items generally means anything for babies from strollers to diaper warmers, so if you are a new or expectant mother you should find a great selection of nursery items.

1. What are the advantages of being a Wee Exchange consignor?

Wee Exchange’s reputation for selection and quality brings in the largest number of shoppers of any consignment sale in Jackson – that means more sales for you! Wee Exchange aggressively promotes our sales, bringing in more shoppers – more sales for you! In addition to great sales for you, as a consignor you get preferential shopping times. We have scheduled a special Consignor only pre-sale. We’ll even let you invite one guest to this special event.

3. What does it cost me to be a consignor?

Wee Exchange charges a 35% commission fee for our services. That means that consignors will receive 65% of the selling price for all items sold. In addition, to help defray the cost of advertising, we will deduct a $7 flat fee from your total earnings, for an unlimited number of items. Consignors are paid by check, usually when they pick up their unsold items. If they do not pick up unsold items, their check will be mailed. Checks are calculated as follows: Take the total amount you sold and multiply that times 65%. Deduct the $7 flat fee. That is the amount of your check.

4. How many items can a consignor bring to the sale?

Consignors may bring as many items as they like. They pay a flat fee of $7 for an unlimited number of items. 

5. Are there special shopping times for consignors?

Yes. We schedule a special Contributor pre-sale to benefit our consignors. Due to insurance and crowd size, no children should be at the pre-sale. They are welcome at the regular sale times. The sale is held the Thursday before the Public Sale from 5-8 p.m. At drop off, each consignor receives a pass to this event. In addition, each contributor is issued a Guest pass. The guest pass admits ONE person to the guest sale, which is from 6-8 p.m. that same night. You MUST present these passes for entry to the sale. Please check out our Dates and Times for the schedule for these special events.

6. How should I tag my items for Wee Exchange?

Please see our detailed tagging instructions on how to tag you items for the Wee Exchange.

7. My tags print fine except the description field, which is gibberish. What's causing this?
 
There is a bug in the Mozilla Firefox 3 browser which causes it to have problem printing in certain scenarios. The tag looks fine on the screen, but when it is actually sent to the printer the text comes out in weird letters and symbols. These strange characters typically appear in the description field. 
Firefox does not have a fix out for this that we am aware of.  You will need to use a different browser (such as Internet Explorer) to do your tag printing.  You can use Firefox to do everything else, but when you print tags, you have to use Internet Explorer.

8. How/when will I get paid for my sales at Wee Exchange?

All consignors can receive their check on pick-up night when they pick up any unsold items. 

9. What happens to items that are not sold during the sale?

There is one day scheduled for consignors to pickup any items not sold during the sale.  Items not picked up by designated time are considered "unclaimed" and automatically become property of USJ Mother's Club and may be donated to benefit USJ/local charities. Please check the "DONATE" box if you wish to donate your item should it not sell when entering your item into inventory. After your tags are printed, you will need to highlight (using a yellow highlighter) the word "DONATE" on the cards of the items you wish to donate. If you do not wish to donate your unsold item(s), please do not check the donate box!!!Please refer to Dates and Times for the pick-up schedule.

10. What happens if I do not pick up my unsold items?

Any items that are not picked up will automatically become property of the University School of Jackson Mother's Club.  These items are further donated to benefit USJ/local charities. 

11. Can I bring a guest with me to the Contributor Sale?
