This will give you a general idea of what various items typically sell for and help you in pricing ------------------------------------------------ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - All tagging will be done on the computer with a software provided to you through your account login. It's very simple. All you do is enter information about your item for sale, and the system generates tags for you! Pretty nifty, and much faster than hand tagging which is not accepted at this Sale. Through our barcoding software tagging you will have access to your sales numbers each night of the Sale and for items that do not sell, you can transfer them to the next Sale without having to re-print tags ever again! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 3. Here are some items you will need to purchase to get everything ready: IMPORTANT! ****White 60-67# card stock for printing tags. It is simply a more durable paper for printing tags on. Standard printer paper for printing tags will rip or fall off of the item. It can easily be purchased at OfficeMax, Staples, or Kinkos. White only please. 250 sheets (which prints about 2,000 tags) cost about $11.50. You will probably have enough for the next Sale. ****String, tape, a hole punch, and safety pins for securing items together * Wire or plastic hangers. All clothing to be on hangers. * Ziploc bags for smaller toys with parts and pieces 4. Now click the "Register/Login" link to get started. You will give your information. A $6.00 registration fee will be collected via PayPal or a check can be made out to: Electa McPherson 5848 Morning Star Rd Lake Wylie, SC 29710 The system is very user friendly. If you have any questions about the registration process, please contact us by email (bmcpherson@kidzexchange.com) If you send a check, we will manually complete the registration when received. Your registration will then be completed and you can begin tagging away or transferring items. 5. You will see a section in your account when you begin entering items for the tagging called "Discount". You have the option of discounting some,all, or none of your items 50% off on the last day of the sale if those items have not sold yet. Discount day is a big shopping day. Price to sell. 6. When you print your tags, be sure your bar codes are sharp and crisp as bleeding and fading will cause disruption at the registers when the scanners try to read them. 7. All clothing is to be on hangers (including SHORTS). The hanger should look like a question mark facing you. The tag should be safety pinned to the left side at the shoulder of all garments. Use the pictures on the right to help you. Use a hole punch at the middle top of the tag. It makes it easier when you attach the safety pin to the clothing. See the pictures for additional help. 8. Tape your tags to the outside of Ziploc bags when applicable. i.e. Toys with small pieces etc. Be sure not to tape over the bar codes. The scanners can not read over tape. This applies to tags taped to furniture, larger toys, strollers etc. 9. Tie shoes together with string or the laces themselves or put them in a ziploc bag. 10. If you have a set of CDs/ DVDs or a group of books with the same author and you want to sell them as one item, then put them in a Ziploc bag. All other books, CDs/DVDs please tape your tag on the back side of the item. 11. Presentation is EVERYTHING! Ask yourself, "Would you buy it?" Clean it up. Make it shine. Eliminate that smoke smell. Make it look as new as you possibly can. 12. So now you're done tagging. The worst is over. Think about volunteering at the show if you haven't already signed onto. You could make 70% to 75% commission. You'll get to come to the "Volunteer Pre-show" before all other consignors and the general public to shop. The best stuff goes first. You will also get 2 extra armbands to give to friends and family to come shop with you. The success of the show is inherently contingent on the volunteers that help make the show run smooth. It also gives you the opportunity to lead potential buyers around the show. 13. Now it's time to drop everything off. When you enter the/ show grounds you will see directional signs leading you to the. Check-In area. It's in the back of the building. 14. You will be greeted by a volunteer. They will help you put clothing on temporary racks, and various other items in a holding area for inspection to go out on to the floor 15. You will be directed to go to "Check-In" where you will receive your armband for the Pre-Sale. If you chose to be a volunteer you will receive 2 additional armbands for your friends and family. If you were one so lucky to refer 3 other people to consign, a $20 gift certificate will be waiting for you. Very Important: When you come to check-in all of your items, please have all of your clothing in size and gender order. i.e. 3-6mo, 6-12mo, 12mo, and so on. If they are not tagged, on hangers, and in order we will not have time to sort it out for you, so please get everything together for a smooth and quick drop. 16. While you are checking-in , the volunteer will be checking out all of your items to make sure toys with batteries are working correctly etc. and clothing are free of wear and tear. On occasion stains and dangling strings get missed. Some items may not be accepted. Please don't be offended. We aim to feature high quality merchandise. What's displayed on the floor will bring your buyers back again for the Fall/Winter show. 17. Well now you're done. Only thing left to do is get ready for the "Pre-Show." Get some sleep and prepare to have a great time. 18. We accept cash, Mastercard, and Visa. 19. We thank you in advance for signing on with KidZ exchange.com. If you are volunteering we are extremely grateful, as you will a big reason we are successful in selling your children's goods. 20. The day after the show, (Monday) you can return to pick-up any items that did not sell. In a perfect situation you will have sold out. Alternatively, that which you choose not to collect will be donated to some very worthy charities in the area. Check the schedule/calendar for pick-up time. Good Luck, let's have a great show!!!!! |
