Summer consignment starts!


What items are the best sellers?

While each season brings its own favorites, there are certain consistencies. Current brands and styles of jeans and causal tops are always popular. Dresses, skirts, sweaters and shoes are also very popular. The key to an item’s popularity can vary, but the most current items from the trendier brands tend to dominate. Garment presentation is critical and all items sell best when clean and well cared for in excellent condition.

What brands and sizes are the most popular?

Banana Republic, Club Monaco, Guess, Silver, DKNY, Liz Claiborne, Ann Taylor, Anne Klein, Jones of New York, Polo Ralph Lauren, Mavi, Gap, Eddie Bauer, Talbots, French Dressing.

While we accept size 0 – XXXL, there is definitely a call for sizes 7 – 12 in ladies fashion. There is also a big call for ladies tops and dresses in sizes 10 – 16.

Do I have to hang EVERYTHING?
YES. All items must BE ON HANGERS before they arrive in the store. Presenting them in this manner will allow us to peruse your order and pull out any "no thank yous" in a matter of minutes, while you wait. This means we don’t have to take up valuable storage space for unaccepted items, and thus saving you an extra trip back to pick up. When you have become a regular consignor with Baja Rosi’s you will have the opportunity to DROP AND RUN*.

*DROP AND RUN allows you to leave before your order is approved, with directions to donate any unwanted items, or an understanding that we will hold unaccepted items for 7 days. This method saves you time and allows us to process your incoming items at our convenience.

My clothing is clean – I took it out of my closet – isn’t that good enough?
NO - Most of us think that we only hang clean, freshly laundered clothing in our closets…but the reality is there is usually something in there that is not clean! PLEASE LAUNDER ALL ITEMS the week that you bring them in…even if they were washed since you last wore them. This will eliminate household odors – present in everyone’s closets – freshen things up and result in probable acceptance and a quick sale.

Who sets the prices?
At Baja Rosi’s we are aware of what is currently popular with our customers. We know the marketplace. What is in high demand, and what is not. Often what you paid the most for is not nearly as popular as an obscure item that you have little use for! With our expertise we are able to price your garments fairly and still offer good value to our customers. This is a fine balancing act and when done correctly, allows for a win – win – win!

Who do you donate unsold items to?

We support the Single Parent Resource Centre. They pick up clothing from us on a monthly basis and make it available at no cost to needy families.
