How much do I get?
If you consign your items you will receive 40% of items that sell for under $30 and 50% for items that sell for over $30. All items will be marked down 30% after 30 days and may be included in other sales.
If you choose to sell your items to us on buyout then you will receive 20-30% of the amount we will price your items for.
How long is the consignment period?
Items are consigned for 60 days. We will hold items for up to 3 days after they expire to allow you time to pick up your unsold items if you wish.
What if my item doesn't sell?
If you choose to consign your items, we will give you the date they will be consigned until, the date they expire. Any unsold items will be pulled on the date they expire and we will hold them for up to 3 days to allow you to pick them up if you wish. If you don’t pick up expired items within 3 days they become property of Oodles Consignment Boutique and may be donated to one of our charities of choice. There are no exceptions. Please note that due to the number of consignors we have we are unable to give reminder calls about expiring items.
Is Consignment or Buyout the better choice?
That all depends on what you are looking for. If you want to get the most money possible out of your items then Consignment is the way to go. If you want the money as quickly as possible and just want to get rid of the items then Buyout is your best choice. Either way you may choose either option any time you bring in your items.
Is there anything you don't consign?
There are some items that we don’t take at all (see “Is there anything you don’t accept?”) and there are items that we are only able to accept on Buyout. Our Buyout only items include but are not limited to: Onesies, Sleepers, Bibs, Books. We get a large quantity of these items and they are typically priced lower. For this reason we only accept these items on buyout. Typically we pay $.10-$1.00 each for these items.
Can you tell me how much I will get for my items?
We have to be able to see items before we can quote you any price. We have to look over all items for brand, age, condition, recalls and many other factors. We can give you a buyout amount on items if you would like. On consignment you may receive more for your items, however if they don’t sell then you don’t get any money for the item.
How do you decide the price and can I change it?
Oodles sets the prices of items to keep our prices consistent. We look at many different factors before setting the price we sell items for. Brand, condition, age, popularity of the item, how well it sells for us, are just a few of the things we consider. In general for Equipment we sell items around 50-70% of what they are new, clothes are closer to 20-30% of what they are new. This can give you a good idea of how much to expect if you want consignment (you get 40-50% of the price we sell it for) or buyout (you get 20-30% of the price we sell it for it).
Is there anything you don't accept?
Unfortunately we are not able to accept all items. We are limited on space and try to select items that sell well for us and will make you the most money. Some items we don’t accept are: Stuffed Animals, Used Car Seats, Used Baby Bath Tubs, Toys missing pieces, items smelling of smoke, stained items, any recalled items. If you are not sure if we accept your item just give us a call!
How long do I have to pick up the money on my account?
Money on your account never expires. Money you earn is available to you at any time and may be applied towards purchases or paid out as cash/check. Cash payout is based on amount, we will cash out up to $50 per day. If your account is inactive for more than 6 months, meaning you don’t have items on consignment and you haven’t used any of the money as store credit, then the available amount will become store credit only.
