Q: How do I know what to price my items at?
To determine the price of your items, you can research similar items being sold on the consignment website or shop, as well as on other online marketplaces. You can also consider the condition and age of your item.
Q: How do I know if my items will be accepted?
The consignment shop or website will have guidelines for what types of items they will accept. You can usually find this information on their website or by contacting them directly.
