Less is More
In our lives, we find that we accumulate stuff, stuff, and more stuff. The time comes when cleaning out, sorting through, and downsizing becomes the task at hand.
Consigning is a great option to clear out items, make some cash, and feel the thrill of lightening your load.
Here are a few tips ...
- Visit the consignment store of your choice, as each store caters to a specific niche, and see what kinds of items they take before bringing your items in for consignment.
- We suggest you email pictures of larger items, such as furniture, for our review.
- Home decor and smaller items may be brought in through the rear entrance of the kismet Central Store anytime we are open.
- Bring small batches of items to keep your load light.
- Christmas decor acceptance at kismet begins October 1st.
- We are efficient in our selection process and very particular in making choices that fit current trends and reflect inventory levels we may already have.
- Our contract covers all of the terms.
- Remember, there is gold at the end of the kismet consignment rainbow.
- Start today with a small box of goodies.
- Make the process fun!
