Consignment Information

Already a consignor? Check your account activity at https://myresaleweb.com/. Sign in with your contract number and last name.

Want to become a consignor? The annual account fee is $5 which is deducted from your earnings. You set your item prices. Proceeds from sold items are divided 70% to the consignor and 30% to the shop.

Items may stay in the shop for 2 months PLUS the remainder of the entry month. Items not sold or removed by the consignor by that time become Thrift Shop property and are sold at a reduced price or donated to local charities.
