Consignment


There are 3 ways to consign: (1) Schedule an Appointment, (2) Schedule a Porch Pick Up or (3) Drop & Dash. When you schedule a consignment appointment you have the option to pick up any unaccepted pieces. When you drop & dash, any unaccepted pieces will automatically be donated. 

You will receive an email once your items have been processed. There is currently a 2 week processing period.

:: We ask that all clothing is brought in cleaned, wrinkle free, and on hangers. How you bring them to us is how we put them out on the floor. 

:: Shoes, purses, and accessories can be brought in a simple laundry basket or tote bag. The more organized your items come in, the quicker the whole drop off process will go! 

:: Want to consign jewelry? We simply ask that you bring us your shiny gems in a little bag of its own. Putting them in separate zip locks to prevent tangles will help us price your jewelry much quicker.

:: Beautiful clothing stuffed in garbage bags just makes us sad. No matter how gorgeous your items are, if they are not in salable condition when they come in, we unfortunately have to return them to you or donate them. 


:: We accept brand-name/designer women’s clothing, shoes, purses/handbags, jewelry, and accessories that have been sold in stores within the last 2 years. 

:: BRANDS WE LOVE:: Anthropologie, Nike, Coach, J Crew, Eileen Fisher, Lululemon, Madewell, Zara, Kate Spade, Tory Burch, Louis Vuitton, Carhartt, Ariat, Johnny Was, and many others!

:: We DO NOT accept vintage clothing/accessories – we adore the vintage look, but it’s just not our market. Items must be in style and sold in stores within the last 2 years.

:: We DO NOT accept replicas or knock-offs of designer items. Ever. If you are unsure of the authenticity of a piece, please be honest. We would be happy to determine the authenticity for you.  Bids & Dibs uses a technology based authentication service to determine if items are authentic. 

:: BRANDS WE DO NOT ACCEPT:: Walmart, Target, JCPenney, Forever 21, H&M, Shein, Temu, and Amazon Brand.

:: We also rarely take “basic” pieces – ie plain colored T-shirts, tanks, or dress pants. They are much harder for us to sell!


:: We simply cannot take every item a consignor brings in.  It doesn’t mean we don’t think you are fashionable or that your items don’t have value.

:: Reasons we may pass on pieces:: damage, seasonal, not a best seller, we have too many similar styles.

:: We strive to provide a wide range of colors, sizes, and styles to our diverse customer base but, unfortunately, have limited space to display pieces.
