Bags & Baby Carriers
Diaper bags, infant carriers, backpacks, and purses are great consignment items. Please inspect all items carefully to make sure items have not been recalled (link), or are stained, damaged or missing pieces.  We no longer accept breast pumps.

Package:  Please zip-tie items to an adult-size hanger.  Those get placed on the endcaps of the clothing isles.

Price:  Price 50% - 75% off retail. Items in great condition tend to sell very well.

Tag:  Hole-punch JBF tag and attach it to item with ribbon or string. If item contains multiple pieces, be sure all pieces are included and list number of items on JBF tag description. (link to tagging video multiple pieces)

Bedding, Blankets & Textiles
Bedding sizes accepted are bassinet through twin only. Please be selective when selling bedding, blankets, receiving blankets, burp cloths, and towels. New and barely used items sell best. Check carefully for stains; shoppers get very disappointed if they find a stain in a bundled blanket once they get home.

Package:  Put bedding/crib/bedroom sets together in original packaging or in giant clear plastic bags. Arrange bedding sets inside bag so that shoppers can see all of the items as well as the design/pattern (include a photo from the internet of bedding set up). Secure the bag so that items do not get separated. Blankets, cloths, and towels can be tied with ribbon/string like a package (be sure multiple pieces cannot be separated).

Price:  Price to sell!  Shoppers are less likely to purchase these items used, so prices have to be low. Try to price 75% - 90% off retail.  

Tag:  If bedding is in a plastic bag, attach tag securely with packaging tape to the inside of the bag and tape the bag shut (bedding set prices vary widely and securing tags inside bags prevents tag switching). If bedding/blankets are bundled with string, hole-punch JBF tag and knot onto tied sets (can place a piece of clear tape on top of tag and punch hole thru to reinforce tag).  (link to tagging video)

Books, Games, DVDs, Arts & Crafts
Books, book sets, board games, puzzles, video games, video game systems, scrapbook, arts & crafts sets are great items for resale.  Please only bring kids’, parenting, homeschooling, pregnancy and child rearing books.  Games and puzzles must have all pieces.  (No "adult" content please.)  Check items to ensure they are in great condition.

Package:  Use clear, self-seal bags or clear cling wrap (saran wrap) to hold multiple items of different sizes together; Tie sets of books the same size together with ribbon/string like a package.  Be sure that parts/games to video game systems (such as Vtech) cannot be separated or switched out at the sale.

Price:  Prices can range from $.50 to $50 in this category, depending on the item. Price to sell especially for books & DVDs as there are always lots to choose from at the sale. Make sets to keep at least a $3.00 minimum price.

Tag:  Attach your tag using either washi or painters' tape to it's easily removed without damage when removing the tag.

This must be filled out completely. If you do not have the manual for your car seat, in most cases, you can download those and print them online. Please bring this Car Seat Waiver checklist with you to Consignor drop off (one copy stays with your waiver, one is attached to the car seat on the sales floor).

Cribs
Per CPSC guidelines, JBF can only accept the consignment of cribs manufactured on or after June 28, 2011.  Cribs manufactured from July 23, 2010 to June 28, 2011 may be consigned if the consignor provides a certificate of compliance from the crib manufacturer or retailer.  Cribs manufactured prior to July 23, 2010 will not be accepted under any circumstance.  Cribs that are unacceptable, for any reason, cannot be sold as toddler beds.  To consign a crib, you must fill out and bring TWO copies of the Crib Waiver. .  Please bring this Car Seat Waiver checklist with you to Consignor drop off (one copy stays with your waiver, one is attached to the crib on the sales floor).  (link to tagging video w/ multiple pieces)

Clothing
We sell children's clothing Newborn through juniors (limit 10 girl's junior size items, Abercrombie, Hollister, Roxy, American Eagle, Nike, Volcom, Burton preferred) as well as maternity sizes (limit 10 brand name maternity clothing items per consignor). Our Fall Sale is fall & winter clothing only (what your child would wear between October-March). Be picky. Look at your clothing items as if you were going to purchase them. No stained or damaged items will be accepted.  Any items not in the current trend will be rejected at inspection. Please freshly clean your clothing items. Replace missing buttons, sew loose hems and seams, and clip loose threads. Please button all buttons, snap all snaps, zip all zippers before you arrive at drop off. This will ensure that there are no defects in the clothing. The newer the item looks (and the better it smells), the better it will sell.

Package & Hang:  Hangers - Please hang clothes so the hanger hook points to the left (like a question mark).  Hang size 0-6 clothing on child-size hangers and sizes 7-juniors and maternity clothing on adult-size hangers. Clothing that falls off the hanger onto the floor will get overlooked.  Clothing Sets - Sets tend to sell better (under size 6) so match things up if you can. Safety pin or use a tagging gun to attach clothing sets securely with bottom garment hung on the backside of the shirt, so both pieces can be viewed without separating them.  Pants/Shorts - Pant-clip hangers are great but if you use a standard hanger, simply use your tagging gun to attach pants to the top part of the hanger so the garment will not slide. Bundle onesies and pin together at the shoulders to be easily viewed by shoppers.  Socks, tights, hats and infant mittens need to be in a clear zip-lock bag (group multiple items in one bag). Please be sure to label your tag well listing all items.

Price:  Hanging Clothing - Put outfits/set together to price for at least $3.00; Start at $3 for basic, generic brand 0-24mo outfit. Add $1 each for larger size, name brand, formal, and heavy/winter.  Non-hanging Clothing - Put sets together to price for at least $3.00, but okay to price for less (i.e., 6 pair of socks for $1.50).

Tag:  Clothing on Hangers - Attach tag with a tagging gun to inside label or seam NOT through part of the clothing (it will make a hole/tear in clothing), or use a safety pin thru upper right front. Also, pull on the tag to make sure it is properly secured and will not come off easily. Please make sure consignor tags are pulled out of the clothing so they are easily visible to the customers.
Non-Hanging Clothing - Bundles of socks, tights, infant mittens, and accessories in plastic bags should be secured closed with clear tape with tag either taped onto or placed inside bag (if you are sure it can be scanned). Please use tagging gun or safety pins to attach tags to tied/taped bundles of accessories. (link to tagging video)
