**Remember, you set your own prices! **

The following are some guidelines for pricing:

• Consignment items are typically priced at approximately 1/4 to 1/3 of their original retail price. If your item is a higher-end item, with name brand such as GAP®, Oshkosh®, or Gymboree®, you may want to set the price on the higher end.  Clothing from discount stores, such as Target®, should be priced on more toward the lower end.  Try to look at the item from a buyer's perspective and determine what you would pay for the item if you were purchasing it.

• Certain consignment items, such as larger indoor/outdoor toys (kitchens and playhouses) with brand names like Little Tykes and Step 2, can be priced higher than apparel, around 1/3-1/2 of original retail price. These types of toys are more durable and in greater demand.  The price should also be based on condition, with higher prices given to items that have only been played with indoors and are gently used.

• Package similar items together for quicker sale.  It's more attractive for a buyer to purchase a bag of similar items (socks, blankets, toys) or a matching outfit than a single toy or pair of pants.  Plus, you can make more on these combined items!

• Prices must be in whole dollar increments.  Use our detailed pricing charts for a better idea of how to price your items.  Prices must be a minimum of $1.

• There are often many of the same type of item for sale, so if your item is priced too high, it won’t sell.  This is especially the case for baby apparel (sizes 0 through 2T).  Also, if you have items that you know you won't want to take home, then you may want to price them lower.
