WHY ARE YOU SO SELECTIVE ABOUT THE CONDITION OF MERCHANDISE ACCEPTED?

  • We have built a reputation for offering the highest quality of "pre-loved" merchandise.  Our customers have high expectations in the inventory we choose and we aim to meet them every day.

WHEN WILL I GET PAID FOR MY ITEMS?

  • Consignors have two options of payment; Monies earned accumulate in your account as items sell and remain on your account until you apply them as a store credit toward a purchase or request a check after your consignment cycle has ended.
  • Checks with a minimum of $20 or more are cut upon request after your consignment cycle has ended.  You can pick up your check Mon-Fri at the boutique, we do not mail checks. Store credit can be used at any time you have a balance on your account. Please note: if you have a few consignment cycles at the same time, your check will reflect what has been sold up to the point check is issued.

WHAT SIZES DO YOU CARRY?

CAN I BRING IN ANY SEASON?

  • We only accept seasonal items - but if you are unsure, please give us a call or ask at the time you make your appointment 
  • Spring/Summer Season: February–August   *Acceptance of white pants or linens starts in April
  • Fall/Winter Season: August–February  *Acceptance of wool, cashmere, coats, or furs starts in late September 

WILL YOU TAKE MY CLASSIC PIECES?

  • The best items that sell for us at Lucky Finds Boutique are within the last 3 years old.  We understand there are some classic clothing items like the little black dress or perfect pencil skirt, but if they were manufactured prior to the last few years, chances are they are not true to the sizes made today.  Over the last 15 years, a size 12 skirt has gradually increased in size by almost 2.5" making it almost impossible to sell as marked. 

DO MY ITEMS NEED TO BE BRAND NEW WITH TAGS?

  • No.  However, they do need to be in excellent condition without stains, tears, odors or signs of wear.  That's why we request to have the clothing items clean, pressed and on hangers when they arrive so we are able to evaluate condition. 

HOW DO YOU KNOW WHAT TO PRICE MY ITEMS FOR?

  • We have a formula based on the original selling price, the data from how items have sold in the past and we research select items to ensure we are giving a great value to our customers. If you are looking for a specific amount for your items, please discuss this with us at your appointment.

HOW DO YOU KEEP TRACK OF MY ITEMS?

  • When your account is created, the computer assigns you an account number.  We enter all of your items under the account number and that number is printed on the tags.  Once your item is sold, the computer program automatically knows so your account is credited for the sale.  We have a very organized system to ensure each consignor's items are accounted for.

HOW DO I KNOW THE ITEMS FOR SALE ARE AUTHENTIC?

  • At Lucky Finds Boutique all items undergo a 3-part process to verify its authenticity including a third-party authentication company.
