Tagging Guidelines

CONSIGNOR HOMEPAGE LINK – CLICK here to enter items.

These guidelines are always being revised to take into account recalls and changes in season. Please check back here at registration time to receive the most current set of guidelines before you begin tagging your items. ALL items must be tagged using the barcode system.

Please read all of our instructions carefully (see Seller Information and Tag Printing as well). You will not receive sale credit for incorrectly tagged items and if you do not follow the guidelines for tagging, we will ask you to retag your items. YOU MUST USE CARDSTOCK! There 12+ sections below with specific instructions for each. It is assumed that you have read and followed them when you show up at Drop-Off.

We have a new tag format! To view the tag, paper restrictions, printing guidelines, and to see answers to questions related to your tag, visit “Tag Format” in the menu.

Tagging Basics:

Price
The minimum price is $1.00. All prices must be in dollar increments. This allows us to easily make change on Half Price Day.
Donate
This flag in the system is not used by our sale. Any unsold item can be picked up on Saturday during pick-up time. The Seller Agreement that you agree to upon registering states that all items left in our building after 2:30pm on Saturday become the property of NFUMC Preschool and are considered donated.
General Tag Attachment
Please note, we will not sell any items without a tag, so please secure your tags to the items well. We do not like to frustrate our shoppers by confronting them with a room full of tagless items. Please view the bottom of this list for how to tag your larger items. We refer to them as BIG TICKET items and our FAQ page answers any additional questions you may have not found here.

Please consider the following list of supplies to attach your tags:

  • Safety pins (no tiny gold safety pins or straight pins)
  • Clear packing tape (to attach tags to toys – do NOT tape over the barcode)
  • Painters Tape (for books, DVDs, CDs, etc.)
  • String, ribbon, zipties or rubberbands (for connecting pairs of items together)
  • Ziploc bags (for smaller items or loose parts)

We do not recommend the use of a tagging gun but there is no rule prohibiting it. Tag placement is of the utmost importance to us and most people using a tagging gun will place the tag where it is better for the clothing. Because of this, we prefer that you use safety pins to attach your tags.

Tags held on with straight pins will be turned away. This is for the safety of any children in the area.

Clothing
Place all clothes on a hanger (including onesies) and turn the hanger so that it resembles a question mark:

  • TOPS: Secure tag on the right side of the item. This will be the left front shoulder of the item (if you were wearing the item, the tag would be on your left shoulder)
  • BOTTOMS: Secure pants with 2 safety pins at the waist on the shoulder area of the hanger, tagged on the right side (with hanger turned like ?). If necessary, use packing tape to hold the safety pins to their location on the hanger.  This will stop them from sliding to one end. Do Not fold pants over the hanger NOR pin the pants folded in half.
  • OUTFITS: Using both the TOP and BOTTOM section above, use safety pins to secure the items together. Please note, using the hanger to help hold the safety pin prevents the pins from pulling down on the clothes and tearing holes in them. If you pin the pants to the shirt only, you risk damage to the shirt as it hangs.
  • UNDERWEAR: We do NOT accept used underwear or diapers outside of original (sealed, unopened) packaging.
Shoes
Put shoes into Ziploc bags and place the tag (do not tape) inside the bag. Do not write price/info on bag! If the shoes are too large for plastic bags, tape or tie/ziptie shoes together and label. We do not have a shoe size limit.
Hair Bows
Consignors who choose to consign hair bows must hang the bows on our designated grid display. Consignors must bring clothes pins with which to hang the bows on the designated grid. We do not have room for individual consignors to use their own display boards. Again, you must use OUR display grid, providing your own clothes pins for hanging the bows.
Bags
Please hang all bags. This includes purses, backpacks, lunch boxes, baby slings, baby carriers, and shopping cart covers.
Other Accessories
Items including caps, booties, blankets, tights, etc. do not need to be hung. Place them in Ziploc bags. Place a tag in the bag – please do not TAPE your tags inside the bags. It will make it hard to scan the tag.
Small Toys/Board Games
Toys, games and puzzles must be complete and in working order. Double-check that all game pieces/parts are included before sealing the box. Boxes should be taped shut. Make sure that all parts are included and items have charged batteries in them. The Seller is responsible for checking Toy Safety and recall websites before bringing items to the sale.
CDs/DVDs/Electronic Games
All must be in working condition, free of scratches, and must be original copies – nothing homemade or burned. We do not accept R-Rated/Explicit movies and games. We ask that you consider the content and the environment before consigning.

Please include original cases as well so the buyer can know what they are buying and look at the content of the item. Tape all tags to the back side of the DVD/Videos/Games so the front is visible, making sure to avoid the barcode.

Books
Must be in excellent condition, with all pages intact and not damaged. We accept books for minors of all ages, educational materials, and family/parenting books for adults. We do not accept adult fiction.

Please tape tags to the backside of the books or anywhere you think it will be safe. Remember that tape can tear some books covers so keep that in mind before you tag them – try using painters tape. If they are sets you can rubber band them together and attach the tag with a ziptie or put them into a big ziplock bag so they can be sold all together. Please do NOT tape the tag to the bag if you are using a bag; simply place it inside.

Irregular Items
This includes linens, feeding items, and other irregularly shaped items not considered Big Ticket Items. Secure tag with 2″ clear tape, being careful to avoid the barcode.
Big Ticket Items
To find out what classifies as a BIG TICKET ITEM, visit our FAQ Page (these items are ones that are too big to carry around as you shop).

  • The Seller is responsible for checking Toy Safety and recall websites before bringing items to the sale.
  • No labels or stickers. The ticket is removed and taken to the register to purchase. Our recommendation is to use zip ties or heavy twine wherever possible.
  • Attach a tag that can be removed by our volunteers when you arrive. At check-in time, someone will find you in line and attach another identifier to your Big Ticket items and move them to our big ticket location. All buyers will remove the bottom, bar-coded portion of the Big Ticket tag to purchase an item. The volunteers will be able to re-tag the item if it is not removed from the floor at the end of the day.
Not Accepted
We do not accept used underwear or diapers outside of original (sealed) packaging, maternity items, any adult clothing, encyclopedias, pacifiers, war toys, weapons, violent games/movies/books or copies of videos, adult reading material, formula, or expired car seats. If it isn’t an item geared towards parenting or for a child aged 0-17, please do not bring it to the sale (candles, household Christmas decorations, romance novels, etc. ).

We are also not accepting stuffed animals. We ask that you please donate them to your local fire department.

We are not responsible for lost or stolen items. Consign at your own risk.
