about consignment

PLEASE NOTE - FALL CONSIGNMENT DEADLINE IS SEPT 17th - after this date I will no longer be accepting fall items. I will start accepting WINTER items in mid October. 
WHAT IS CONSIGNMENT? 

I find new homes for your previously loved & gently used clothing on your behalf!  It's win win, you will receive 40% of the listed price aka make some extra cash on those clothing items that you may still love but just don't reach for anymore. Plus you get the comfort of knowing your pieces have a chance at a new home to be loved once again rather than ending up in a landfill. 

HOW DOES IT WORK? 
  • If you have clothing you would like to sell with Middle Child Vintage, please email me at middlechildvintage1@gmail.com or shoot me a DM on Instagram 
  • There will be a total of ONLY FOUR consignment drops each year corresponding to each season; Fall, Winter, Spring & Summer 
  • Please provide photos of all items via email or DM (ensure garmet condition & brand tags can be seen in photos) 
  • I will review the photos & let you know what I am able to sell based on my selling experience. Unfortunately, I have learned that specific items such as pants & shoes can be a tough sell so please never be offended if an item does not get selected
  • Upon approval, please provide a listing of all items you provide consent to be sold by Middle Child Vintage for my review & your email address for e-transfer 
  • After two weeks, if items remain unsold, they will be discounted. Please notify me if there are any items you would NOT like to be discounted.
  • Items will remain listed for one month, at which point they will be taken off the website and available to be picked up or they can be donated to the MCV thrift shop 
  • Prior to drop off or pick-up, all items must be RECENTLY washed, steamed,  appropriately cleaned & in a condition that is ready to be sold
  • Contactless drop off is in Hamilton (near Gage Park) or pick up will be arranged in Hamilton, Burlington, Oakville or Toronto via email or DM 
CURRENTLY ACCEPTING: 
  • Specifically looking for FALL ITEMS including jackets, blazers, skirts,  warmer dresses, knits, sweaters, overalls etc
  • I am always happy to take great quality basics such as long sleeves & tees 
  • Please note I do not/rarely accept the following items:
    • Fast fashion brands such as Forever 21, Old Navy, Ardene's, etc. Unfortunately the margins are just too slim on these items.
    • Pants, denim jeans, shoes or purses unless they are in like new condition, higher end/vintage brand names & currently on trend
    • Jewelry & other accessories 
  • I will start to accept Winter items in October & November
HOW DO YOU RECEIVE PAYMENT?
  • Consignee payments for items sold (40% of listed or discounted price) will be e-transfered at the end of each month 
  • With every e-transfer, a detailed summary of your sold & unsold items will be sent to your email for review
