• Other Items
  Snowsuits, Halloween Costumes, shoes, toys, baby equipment and furniture, bedding, videos, dvds, bikes, sporting goods, games, books, puzzles, car seats, strollers, highchairs, anything to do with kids.  If you have equipment that requires assembly, please bring the proper tools for assembly.  You are responsible in putting the item together (cribs, swings, etc), this helps sell your item.  If you have the original manual to the equipment, put the manual in a Ziploc bag and tape or safety pin it to the item. - There is no limit (No stuffed animals please, no summer/spring clothing) 

• Quality Items
  All articles should be clean, complete and in good working condition.  Please be highly selective and do not bring stained or worn out clothing or missing buttons or has holes in it.  All baby equipment should be clean, complete and in good working condition.   Also, do not sell toys unless they have ALL of the parts.  If a toy is battery operated then make sure that is has working batteries in it when you sell it so that people can tell that it isn’t broken.

• Tags
  Please tag your items according to the directions below. This process is simple and will make the COZY TOTS Kids Consignment Sale efficient and accurate.  Please use ONLY INDEX CARDS! Please don’t use stickers, paper or write on ziplock bags.  If we don’t have a clearly written, removable tag, we have a much harder time guaranteeing that we will be able to get you your money.

• Self Addressed Stamped Envelope
  Please provide a self addressed stamped envelope for us to mail your check to you.  This will help us get your checks out to you faster.
  

• Boxes
  Please bring a box large enough to hold all your loose items, please write your consignor number on the box. We will place all your unsold items in this box for you when you pick up.  You will get your box back, if you have a lot of items, please bring more than 1 box or bin, the more the better.
  

• Consignor fee
  Due to increased expenses, there is a consignor fee of $5.00 due at the time of drop-off, this is about half or what similar sales are charging.

How To Tag Your Items:

1. Please use ½ of a 3x5 index card (not smaller) and attach it with a safety pin to the upper left corner of the garment as shown in the picture. It helps to make a single hole punch in tag first before attaching.  Please no paper tags.  

2. Price. Please write price in large clear numbers. Prices should be in $.50 increments. (I.e. $.50, $1.00, $1.50, etc.). Any price not in $.50 increments will be rounded to the lowest dollar.  If an item is two dollars please write $2.00 and not just $2.  Also if you are bringing an item that did not sell from previous sale and you are changing the price, you will need to make a NEW TAG for the item.  We will not sell items that have tags with priced changed on it.  This protects the sellers.  As a general rule, price your items at ¼ of the original retail price.  If an item is like new and name-brand, you can price it higher.  If an item has been well loved and not name-brand, it should be priced on the lower end.  Also, if you are looking to not have to take anything home at the end of the sale, price your items to sell.   Best to ask yourself, what would I expect to pay for this item?  Price it no more than what you would be willing to pay. If you do NOT want your item to be 50% off on Sun. please place a red dot next to the price.  Tags with red dots will only be sold for the price written on the tag. 

Example

3. Size. Please do not use S, M, L, instead use 12-18 mos, 4t, 6, etc.

4. Consignor number. All consignors MUST fill out the consignor registration form to obtain this number. Email jency@cozytots.org or call  (215) 947-2214 if you are having trouble with the form.  If you consigned with us before, you may use your old consignor number but you still need to fill out the registration form to let us know you will be consigning.

5. Item. Describe each item at the bottom of the tag.  The more descriptive you are, the better in the case the tag falls off the item, we would be able to match items without tag.  We can not sell items without tags.

6. Safety Pin. Attach tag in a button hole, belt loop or on garment itself. Please do not use straight pins.

7. Please hang clothes on metal or plastic hangers (free at most dry cleaners). Face hanger to the left, as shown in first picture.  Use rubber band around hangers for 2 piece outfits.

8. Please sort all clothes by sex and size, there will be a special rack for unisex 0-12 months

9. Please attach shoes together or place in a ziploc bag with the tag. Only shoes in like-new condition seem to sell so please keep this in mind.

10. Please use clear packing tape to attach tags to toys or other items. Secure loose parts with packing tape.

11. Onesies or socks can be grouped by size and placed in a Ziploc and tagged together.

Drop off and pick up info:

• Drop off items:
   At the Bryn Athyn Church Elementary School,  please have your items sorted by sex and size before arriving. 

  Please allow yourself enough time to drop off your items.  Consignors are responsible for distributing their own items around the sales floor and hanging their clothes on the racks.  It is important that you put your items in the proper place, this helps sell your items.

• Also pick up your consignor shopping pass.  Free feel to give your pass to a friend if you are unable to attend. Only people with passes will be able to enter the sale on Friday.
  

• Pick up unsold items:
  All unsold items are available to be picked up Sunday from 6-8pm .  All items will be sorted for you by consignor number.  Unsold items that are not picked up will become property of Cozy Tots and donated to charity of our choice.  We regret that no alternate pick-up arrangements can be made.  Please have a friend pick up your items if you are unable to do so.  

• Checks:
  Checks will be mailed on 2-4 weeks after the sale.  Please email or call if you have not received your check by then, thank you!
