My Best Friend’s Closet Consignment Agreement
Consignment Terms- Consignor will receive 40% of the selling price when sold. My Best Friend’s Closet accepts items 7 days a week. Consignor must wait for any items which are not accepted or those items will be donated. The consignor is responsible for providing the correct consignor number on each visit. Consignor will be responsible for 3% of the credit card fees if customers choose to use a credit card on purchase. These fees are split with business.
Fees & item assessment- Items must be within two years of fashion, in season, clean, and pressed on hangers, with no defects or garage sale stickers. Any imperfections or damages should be clearly disclosed by the consignor at the time of consignment. Any items later found that do not meet the consignment criteria are subject to a reasonable cleaning or repair fee or just donated without consignor contact.
Pricing- Consignor’s items will be prices at the discretion of My Best Friend’s Closet. Items will be reduced for some of the following reasons: store promotions, and standard mark downs.
Account Activation- A $5 deduction will be applied to your account for a set up fee. This is a one time fee and will not be taken out again. You will not need to pay the $5 in cash, it will be taken out when your first item sells.
Sales and Payment- Consignors may be paid out at any time with cash, check, or store credit towards purchases. Only names listed on the account can pick up any amount due. Person(s) collection money/credit must provide a photo I.D.
Items not sold- Any unsold items may be picked up no later than 7 days after the 90 day consignment period. You will be given a list of your items and you must pull your items. Sales associates are not allowed to help find items. This process is time consuming with a lot of items. Consignors are responsible to keep track of the time of period to pick their items up. Anything not picked up within the 97 days will become property of My Best Friend’s Closet and donated.
Donations- My Best Friend’s Closet reserves the right to donate any items at any time which are not sellable without notifying the consignor.

Our customers typically only buy styles withing the last two years. As we fill up just on those trends and high end designers we do not accept brands from Walmart, Kmart, Target, some JCPenny and Kohls brands.
These brands have not sold well for us in the past which is why
they have been cut.

This process typically does not take more than 5 minutres. If you have any questions please give us a call.
Styles are on constant change and so our are requirements. They change due to seasons, styles, and how full our departments get. It is best to bring your items in for us to review!
