Testimonials
“I am so impressed by the high quality of this sale- very organized, professional and easy. I wish this had been around when I was pregnant with my first child. I shopped many garage sales with only modest results. Thanks for all of your help!”

“I had a great experience and surprised how simple the process was. I am amazed that the technology exists to create tags, manage my inventory and view daily sales from my own computer. That was fun seeing how much money I made at the end of each day! Tagging was easy and the organization of clothes was wonderful. I really appreciate the rapid response from you every time I have needed help or had questions. It is nice to know that I wouldn't need to wait days to get a response. I will see you next year. Thanks again for everything. ”

What does the registration fee cover?

Registration fee helps offset the costs associated with space rental & marketing. We publicize our sale through direct mail distribution, web campaigns & email blasts, sponsorships, advertising and public relations.

Do you accept MySaleManager tags or barcode tags that are used at other sales?

Yes. We cannot, however, offer online tracking of those items. We provide a report at the end of the sale indicating which if your items sold.

When do I get paid?

Should I iron my clothes?

Sure! Wrinkled clothes do not sell. Please do what is necessary to make your clothes look clean and nice. Remember, the better they look, the more likely they are to sell!

Are there items that you don’t accept?

We do not accept:

  • Stuffed animals with the following exceptions of:
    • battery operated – teaching toy
    • Character toys – such as talking Elmo
    • New condition holiday – Easter, Christmas, etc.
    All exceptions must be inspected and approved.
  • clothing with stains, tears or holes
  • toys or equipment with missing or defective pieces
  • toys that don’t work – they’ll be tested at drop off

Damaged or defective items will be removed from the sale.

Please make sure you would be willing to put it on or give it to your child. No one wants to sort through, much less buy, damaged items for their children. We insist on accepting only high quality items in excellent condition.

How do I price my items?

Price your items to sell. If you value the item at $10 price it at $8 or $9 to ensure it sells before half price day. Our most successful sellers price to sell and always discount on 1/2 price day. 

Price at 25-35% of the retail value, depending on the brand/condition of the item. Baby equipment, furniture and large indoor/outdoor toys sell well and are in high demand. We have an abundance of 0-6 month sizes, so they must be priced competitively in order to sell.

What is Discount Day?

We host a 1/2 price sale day during each sale event. We do this to increase sales of remaining items on the last day of the event – less for you to take home! We do, however, give you the option to NOT DISCOUNT your items on 1/2 price day simply – it is up to you.

Use NO DISCOUNT tags sparingly. The only time this should be used is when the item is priced competitively (in which case it would be sold at full price earlier in the sale).

Most of our consigners would rather take less profit than none at all. They’d also rather not bring home boxes of unsold clothing and accessories. It is our experience that many of the items remaining after 1/2 price day were over-priced to begin with. If you over-price AND opt for No Discount, you can count on bringing home many unsold items.

How do I secure small pieces to toys or equipment?

Place them in a ziploc bag and then seal the bag with clear packing tape. This is important! Attach the bag to large items with masking tape, string or ribbon.

When I price items in a ziploc bag, how do I attach the price tag?

Attach the price tag securely and place both item and tag inside the ziploc bag. Make sure the price tag is visible for scanning at checkout.

When do I drop off my items?

Designated drop-off days are listed on the Sale Info page.

When do I pick up my items that don’t sell?

Designated pick-off days are listed on the Sale Info page.  Or, you can choose to donate your items on the last day of the sale.

What happens to my items if I don’t pick them up?

Unsold items that are not claimed at pick-up will be donated to charity.

What types of payments are acceptable to purchase items?

We accept cash, MasterCard and Visa. We accept checks from our consignors.

Why is participating in the KidStuff Sale better than having a garage sale?

We do most of the work for you! You just prepare your items and bring them to the sale location. We handle all of the marketing and advertising - you benefit from our existing customer base of eager shoppers. You just pick up your unsold items and your proceeds. And, no pesky negotiations! Our shoppers are looking for quality used items and are willing to pay a reasonable amount for them.
