Consigning

Do I need an appointment to drop off items?

No appointment is necessary! Simply bring your items in during our business hours — Tuesday through Friday from 11am to 6pm, and Saturday from 12pm to 4pm. We're closed Sunday and Monday.

How many items can I bring in at once?

We accept up to 2 white 13-gallon bags of items per month per consignor. This helps us manage our inventory and give each item the attention it deserves.

What types of clothing do you accept?

We accept women's and men's clothing. Items must be gently used, name-brand, clean, and in excellent condition. We look for current styles from quality brands. See our Brands We Love and Quality Standards pages for full details.

What happens if my items don't meet your standards?

Items that don't meet our quality standards will be returned to you. If you prefer, you may give us permission to donate them on your behalf. We'll let you know which items were not accepted when you drop off.

Do you accept men's clothing?

Yes! We accept both women's and men's clothing. Items must be gently used, name-brand, clean, and in excellent condition.

Can I consign shoes, accessories, or handbags?

We primarily focus on clothing, but we do occasionally accept quality shoes, handbags, and accessories from name brands in excellent condition. Please ask us when you come in and we'll let you know what we're currently accepting.

How long does the consignment period last?

The consignment period is 90 days from the date your items are accepted and placed on the floor. After 90 days, unsold items may be picked up, donated, or discounted at our discretion.

Can I get my unsold items back before 90 days?

Yes! You may request your unsold items back at any time before the 90-day period ends. Just come in during business hours and let us know.

Payment & Commission

How much do I earn from my consigned items?

You earn 40% of the selling price of each item that sells. For example, if your item sells for $40, you receive $16.00.

When do I get paid?

Payments are issued bi-monthly on the 15th of January, March, May, July, September, and November. Your payment will cover all items sold during the preceding period.

Is there a minimum payout amount?

Yes, the minimum payout is $20. If your balance is under $20 at the time of a payment date, it will roll over to the next payment period.

How do I receive my payment?

We offer cash (pick up in store), check (mailed or in store), or store credit. Contact us to set your preferred payment method. Store credit can be used immediately upon request.

Who sets the prices for my items?

We set all prices based on brand, condition, original retail value, and current market demand. We aim to price items fairly to sell quickly while maximizing your earnings.

Will my items be discounted over time?

Items may be discounted as the consignment period progresses to encourage sales. This is standard practice in consignment retail and helps ensure your items sell before the 90-day period ends.

Shopping

What can I expect to find at Used To Be Yours?

Our inventory changes constantly as new items come in every week. You'll find a carefully curated selection of gently used women's and men's clothing from quality brands — all at a fraction of retail prices.

Do you have a return policy?

All sales are final. We encourage you to inspect items carefully before purchasing. Our team is happy to answer any questions about an item before you buy.

Do you offer layaway or holds?

We do not currently offer layaway or holds on items. All items are sold on a first-come, first-served basis.
